Fallout Equestria: Isle of the lost.

It's been a month since the siege of the cliffside. All the land was pretty silent. The entire town went back to normal before the battle even started. But some parts of the road still had bloodstains. Flowers started to grow on the graves. They all had heroes or heroes that tried to fight us. But in the blacksmith's workshop, he started working. A powerful weapon to get ready for the final battle it's going to be hard. The town is slowly being rebuilt. A new Zebra took over for the seer. She was burned and her ashes will be buried in her homeland.

Outside of the town in the former Salamander home. Bodies have been moved out slowly. They have been placed in a pile to slowly burn. Then the cave is closed by a giant rock. It was easy for Blaze to move that way. Traders walked along the road. The traders came from the scaled hides town. A trade agreement happens after the battle ends. It's been pretty silent since the battle. No pony has seen Mix or mouse. Cricket has been seen in strange new armor covering his burned body. But he didn't stop to fight anyone. Each town is under the control of the army along with some of the Queens of the magic eaters. The only town not standing is the Clockwork ponies town; it's a giant crater. All melted together armor and burning magic eaters. Time always passes like a war is not happening.

"All of them dead..just because they wish to hurt my love...But instead of hurting my Star Shooter, they hurt...me." She turned to look at the Gila monster. " They hurt us both...Even if you were an outcast of both towns" Speckled nodded.

" I found my wife when I was banished from both. She refused to speak. But she only speaks to me when she wishes to. But only when she has something to say. But she was born on this island. Her family is from Equestria. But she wants nothing to do with that land anymore. Just because of how bad the war got." Blaze nodded to the Gila monster.

" I am not sure if I wish to go there myself. My wife wishes me to meet her family. But I doubt her family will even like me." She said with a gentle smile. " But I have no home anymore but she is all I have left." She turns back to her former home. Sitting down watching the bodies burn. " I feel that's all I am going to see for the rest of my life. These bodies are burning." Her eyes close gently then looks back to the road heading to town.

"Don't worry about going back. No one has heard anything from the army that went for the other towns. Majesty used up most of her army in the battle at Cliffside. I'm lucky my Sky Paw didn't go outside. She just locked herself into a door in the basement.." Blaze Chuckles looking back to the cave

Dr. Slice and Burnout are playing a game of chessboard that survived after all these years. The two just seem to stay silent. For the moment it's so calm in Cliffside that most of the zebras calmly walk by holding boxes of weapons. Some even have the armor they're placing them in front of the gate. The Magic ghouls and Clockwork ponies get everything ready for the battle when the months go into the year. When the next year starts the battle for the island is going to start. But only one month has passed at this moment. Burnout stayed out of the fight. Recently came down to see what is going on since.. All the ability to talk to anyone in the castle is gone.

"I'm a bit worried about my family stuck in the castle," Burnout moves the pawn. Sighing trying to keep his mind off what is going on inside the castle’s walls. Slice moved a pawn along one of the squares. He sighed as well looking at Burnout.

" I wouldn't be too worried Burnout. I would be more worried if Blaze gets a hold of you for what you did to Star Shooter. I got to say you got guts to stick around even after all that." He said with a robotic-like chuckle. Burnout smirks and his burnt fur-like body makes him look like he is burned. But of course, it's how his coat is. He shifts in his seat.

" I...um...well yes I may have done many things to her. But at least I didn't allow any pony to rape her." He said with a weak smile. Slice lifted up his many eyes to look right at Burnout.

" OH...that makes it ten times better than Burnout. Wait no it doesn't. She can barely sleep sometimes because of what you have done to her. She may have forgiven you. But many of the creatures of this town will not. She is their hero. Look at them Burnout. Most of them are staring at you. Waiting for you to make a mistake. So they can kill you." Burnout looks to the others of the town. They gave him very nasty looks. He moved another piece on the board.

" I understand perfectly why most of them wish to kill me. But I haven't heard the hero crying and sobbing. Oh.. Wait I hear it every night since. She allowed me and my daughter to sleep in the Manson. I feel bad about it every time Blaze wakes her up and she starts sobbing. What makes you think I want to remember all this Slice?" Burnout asks, stroking his head in anger.

Slice looks up seeing Blaze staring at Burnout. She then walks up to them. Her hate and anger for Burnout are very easy to make out on her face. She smacked the board away with her tail. Slice slowly drifted back. Blaze just stared at Burnout.

" I um...Hello Blaze.." He said with a weak smile. Blaze just stared at him. Walking away. Then turning back to look at him.

" You're lucky that my love wants to keep you alive and lucky. That she is trying to bring the boat that brought her here. So for her, I will keep you alive. But if you backstab me or her.. I will kill you." Burnout mods. Slice lifted the board and the pieces. Placing them back to how it was before.

" See what I mean? Blaze could have killed you right there. But if it wasn't for Star Shooter you would be dead by every pony in this town. I am sure the zebras are just waiting to do so." Burnout nods, sighing, biting his lip. The two start to go back to their game like nothing ever happen.

Inside the walls of the walled city, most of the buildings are on fire. With the army in search of the rebellion or the fact, they don't all wish to love the Queen. A young filly is running through the stone steps. Running past bodies of the dead. She was being chased by Magic eaters. The little filly kept running away from them. Hiding behind a pot. The magic eaters passing her by. She then rushes to a closed-door knocking it a few times. It opened up and she rushed inside. The door closing up. She dropped a bag of letters. Panting hard.

" Sorry...it took so long...They have more guards around the secret doors to the outside now. I got some letters from the rebellion outside." The one that opens the door nods. Lifting the bag of letters. Opening the door.

" It’s best to be careful. They seem to be getting smarter." The filly nods trotting back out looking around rushing back the other way. He closed the door heading deeper inside. Heading downstairs. There are many creatures in this part of the city. It's called slums. The slums seem to have all their sun blocked off from the upper land. The only way they get light is from the unicorns that power up the lamps with their horns. It looks like they have to change every few hours to have another power to the lights. He gets in the middle of the slum's yelling.

" Letters from the outside." All eyes open wide. Rushing to get the letters. It's not that big of a bag. But most got the letters that had their names on it. But a lot lost most of their families during this silly war. The zebras of the slums stay away from the others but they seem to be planning an attack on the upper levels. The leader of the rebellion walks out of the darkness of the slums.

" So is it true that the hero found Mimic's weapon, little lady?" The stallion nods. The Griffin smiles. " So it is true then. Good to see that Mimic didn't die for anything then. Too bad I couldn't go back with her or the fact that...the Queen let us all go. I think I am the only one left. Could you smuggle me out of here so I could talk to her?" The stallion nods.

" It won't be easy, they don't let any pony out much of the time. But If I place you in a box. Tell them I am heading out to gather fish so maybe they will let me out. If the box is big enough. But what would you say to her when you see her?" The Griffin shrugged.

" I am not sure really. I am sure I would ask her how the war ended. But knowing how ponies are. I am sure the world ended in fire. I do hope that is not true. Because if it's true then it's something I shouldn't worry too much about."

The stallion nodded looking back to the door that leads back up. " I will go find the box I need. Now it might be best to try to tell the Zebras not to start another attack. It would cause worse things to happen down here. We don't want them to bring more magic eaters down here to watch us." The Griffin gave a nod.

The Griffin watches the Stallion head back upstairs. He walks to the Zebras looking at them. Who turns to stare at him. " Listen if we wait long enough. The hero will be here just in time to save us. We need to not allow ourselves to have more issues."

The Zebras look at each other and one of them walks up to the Griffin staring right up at him. " The stars have cursed us all here Griffin. But if we have to wait for this pony to save us from this curse. Then we will do so. But how will we live with the sun being blocked from us? Because Majesty wishes to see us suffer?"

He sighs." The Queen has lost her mind, my friends. I feel the only way to keep us alive.. is to sing. So maybe we should allow ourselves to sing. if we fall because we can't keep our hope from failing us. Then we will never be strong enough to be ready to fight. We need to be ready to fight. I will be heading out soon to meet with the hero. Then I will come back to let you know when the attack will happen."

The Zebra nods. The Griffin goes back into the bar. It was run by two unicorn twins. How could they be alive still after so long? But they seem to be young and they looked up at the Griffin. " Hello, Uncle Glendo." He smiled at them. The two twins seemed young. They look to be descendants of the two mares he came to this island with.

" It seems we found the hero that took up the mantle from Mimic. So I will be going to check on this hero. So I wish to know what is up." The two glower at the name of Mimic. She gave up her friends. Including their mother. Since Chocolate Milk had these two. The other died before she could give birth to herself. " I am sorry this is happening because of Mimic. I do wish that we all can make up for it." The two nod as one. He smiles and glances back at the others in the bar. He sat at the bar sighing still dealing with the fact that he was one of Mimics friends. He looked at the twins. Who cleans dirty glasses. But a large group of magic eaters walks into the bar. He looked to see Cricket with them. He was wearing some heavy armor. That hides his burnt body. He walked to Glendo.

" Well hello, Glendo. The Queen sent me down here to check on you." Glendo sighs, shaking his head.

" What does Majesty need with me now?" Cricket laughs softly.

" Nothing, she is just wondering if you're causing problems down here dear Griffin." He shook his head, sighing a bit. Looking at the twins. Clicking the bar for a drink then looks back to Cricket.

" If I wanted to cause a problem Cricket I already would have. You and your friends. Have broken all the hope that the citizens have down here. So you don't need to do anything to me or the others." Cricket hisses softly the Magic eaters simply just fly away. Cricket sighs looking back to Glendo.

" I hate that....anyway Glendo... My friend, I am sorry for what is going on up there. I wish I could help you more. But Majesty is upset I got so beaten up when we tried to take Cliffside. That hero... is a strong hero. I do hope you are prepared for her. Because when she gets into the city. Majesty will do anything to try to kill her." Glendo nods.

" I am sorry Cricket. But I am going to miss our chats. When she comes in here with her friends to kill you. Most around would find it odd. That I'm friends with you and have been since..I became a magic ghoul." He sighs. "I still wish to see if I can go back to Equestria to see how bad it's become." Cricket nods looking back out the door.

"Take care Glendo. I am getting some nasty looks from those Zebras." Glendo nods while taking a drink. He sighed softly. It was going to be hard, he thought to himself. It's going to be tough to take care of everything. While he drank. The stallion came back down walking to Glendo.

" I got a big enough box. We will leave in a few days. Be ready to head outside of the castle." Glendo gave a nod. He drank the rest of the drink. Heading out of the bar to get to his home that is right under one of the guard towers above. A well-dressed stallion was in the bar hearing what was going on. He quickly got out of his chair and went upstairs. He showed the guard his card. He was a high society pony of the castle. When the guard let him out he rushed off to a large building.

The Catcher Residents

A young mare was holding her dying father' hoof. He was the leader of the high society ponies. " Sea Catcher you...need to take up the mantle. Keep the high society ponies in line. They need your wisdom." Sea catcher nods, tears streaming down her face. But she was not like normal high society; she cares about the ones below her. Thanks to her mother being a former pony from the ones below them. A mare that won her father's heart through being his slave.

" Father...I don't know if you can...." The stallion laughs weakly. He held her hoof weakly

" You're your mother... Sea Catcher your mother such a lovely mare. That made my heart soft. Lead them like her. Some will not like the fact that." She smiles softly as her father slowly drifts from being awake to close his eyes. As he gives his last breath with a smile on his face. She sighed standing on her hooves. The workers of the home lift the body to burn him. She sighs looking out the window seeing a group of high society ponies gathering outside. She walks out walking down to them.

" Yes, the hero is real. Glendo is going to go talk with her." They turn when Sea Catcher comes down to him. From the look on her face. They know that her father is dead. " So...what now Sea Catcher. Since your father was the leader of us...What do you think we should do?"

She thought for a moment, sighing a bit. " I feel we can't do much of anything. But we need to try to get ready when the battle does come here. If it's true about the hero helping protect Cliff Side. I feel we need to train ourselves in battle. But you all need to understand. The ones below us. Don't trust us. I don't blame them either." One mare almost spoke but a stallion looked at her shaking his head.

" I agree with you Sea Catcher. But we have lived like this all our lives. How can we help?" She thinks a moment looking towards the guards that are protecting the main doors leading down to the slums.

" When the battle starts. I think it's best to go free to the slums. I know it's not going to be pleasant but if we are going to have my father's dream. Then we must all be willing to fight with us." They nod. " Now I need to go speak to Majesty. Meaning I need to go place makeup glop all over my face. Remember when the battle makes it here we go right for the slums." She heads inside. The stress of this gets to her. it makes her feel a bit of a pain.

Heading into her shower cleaning up her sea color like body. Then getting out, drying herself off. She sighs and closes her eyes. When she went into her room. A large Roc stood by her room. She looks up at her. " Hello, Mistress I made sure that your makeup is all ready for you." She gave her a nod going inside looking into the mirror sighing softly. She worked the makeup on her face. Then some pink eye shadow. Getting into one of the best dresses she has. Walking outside of her room.

" I hate this'' glop '. But come on let's get going." The two slowly walked to the castle. The guards let her through. They walked past the room that held the Warden. She looked in and smiled at the dragon. " Hello, Warden." The warden looked over to her. He looks extremely weak like his body if failing.

" Sorry If I don't seem very happy to see you myself Sea Catcher. I'm sick and tired of being trapped like this. I have been here since this island was created. But Majesty is waiting for you dear. " Sea Catcher frowns, nodding heading upstairs to the throne room. Near one of the doors, there is a strange device magically mutating dogs into larger creatures. Then in another, a room doing something to stallions makes them taller. The guards open the door. But at a normal time Reaver would be there to greet them but it's Majesty herself.

" Ah hello, Child." She gave a sweet smile.

" Hmm, dear Majesty, Reaver normally greets us. What happened to the poor creature?" Majesty chuckles leading them inside. To the side, there is a bottle with a cork on it. Reaver is inside it."

" He was causing some issues in the castle a little while ago. So the only way to get him to listen to place him in a bottle. Then he will be easy to speak to after a while." Sea Catcher blinked nodding noting that. " Now I heard about your father. I'm so sorry about that dear. I understand you shall lead the high society now."

She gave a nod. " Yes, I am. But there is another reason that you called right Majesty?" Majesty had an angry look on her face. She sighed softly

" Yes, I did. My pet has been killed by the hero. But that was my fault. I sent her out there to lead the army to take the hero down. It sounds like the hero found a way to take them all out without a battle. I do hope you understand. Why I had to close up the slums. It was a way to keep the minions of the hero at bay down there. Because most of them are down there." Sea gave a nod smiling.

" Ah yes, you must do what you can to fight the filth dear. I shall remember this." She said with a hearty laugh. But she didn't feel like this in her own heart. It made her feel bad. She had to keep this up."

" Now Sea Catcher you may go. I just wanted to welcome you to be a leader." She gave a nod slowly heading out with the Roc not far behind. When they get out of the castle. She looks up to the Roc.

"I wish you to find an enchanted bottle that could hold Reaver when the battle starts. I need to get home and get some rest." The nameless Roc nodded flying away out of the castle. Sea Catcher heads into her home locking all the doors letting her servants have the day off. While she just goes to rest her head in her bed. Hoping this war is over soon.

The Roc flew towards Scaled hide city. But the way into the kingdom is through a nasty cliff like a road. Just walking over it causes issues. She looks below seeing many bodies of the dead from the battle that didn't happen too long ago. She gently walks along the path. it was made for creatures like lizards that could go through here. She made it to the way into the city. But she didn't get hateful looks like others would give. She was welcomed. She slowly walked along the path to the glassmaker. Inside were the glassmakers. A dragon she knew well. She used to be his bodyguard. The Dragon turns with a gentle smile.

" Ah, Unknown one good to see you." The Roc smiled. She was known as the Unknown one here. He hatched her named her out of respect for her species.

" Good to see you Jabari. I'm here to place an order for Lady Sea Catcher. I need the glass to be a large bottle. Then I need it enchanted." Jabari thought for a moment nodding.

" Ah I see but I can't do those enchants sadly. But I can tell you who. There is a turtle, the only turtle of this village that is here. He has some powerful magic that some unicorns helped him learn ages long past. So I shall start on your order. It will be done in a month. But go speak to him."

The nameless Roc nods heading to a large homemade straw. She sighed going inside. Saw the old turtle with the long beard open his weak old eyes. " Ah..." He said slowly. " Someone...That...wishes...to...Speak." He smiled slowly. " What...ole...Box...do..for..You?" he said with a slow voice.

She calmly spoke. " I need an enchant to house a creature of clouds. A creature that can break through normal none enchanted glass." The turtle blinks a moment. Stroking his chin with his turtle foot.

" Ah...I ..see...So ...Magic...of the ponies....of the...past....is needed..." The turtle stood up. He walked pretty fast...But his speech was slow. Looking through the books of old. Finding one of the spells. "Ah. I will...cast it...when you have...the ..item in question."

The unknown one gave a nod. " Then I shall go. I need to get back to Milady and make sure she is well guarded." Box gave a nod smiling. Nameless Roc went out of the house flying off back to the castle to protect her mistress.

Near the shore, a ship was lodged on some sharp rocks. Most of it seemed wrecked but it could be very easily rebuilt. I was using my magic to place the waterlogged wood on the shore. I had some Zebras with me taking the parts of the boat. It wasn't going to be very easy to get the boat off these rocks. But I had to find away. I turned to look towards Hawk.

" Hawk, could you please try to blast up these rocks to see if you can break them enough so I can get to the boat?" Hawk walked up onto the beach. His large feet sink into the wet sand. But he is still able to move. Take a look at the sharp rocks. Arming his guns firing at the rocks. Trying to shatter them. When most of the rock shatters. I sigh, closing my eyes. I wasn't very good at this type of magic but I had to try. My magic wrapped around the boat. Lifting it in my magic. Slowly getting it on the beach I pant hard from how it felt. My heartbeat is hard from the overuse of the magic.

I was happy that two clockwork ponies were here to help me. Two of them helped by lifting the boat onto a wagon. But It didn't seem like it would be that easy. Laying on the beach for a bit panting a bit closing my eyes. It was bad for me to overwork. But I had to repair this boat. So I can get back to Equestria when I need to. Slowly standing back on my hooves walking to the wagon to see how well the boat is. It's going to need to have a lot of work to get me back. But It's going to be needed for later.

Looking towards Hawk who walks onto the road than looking down to me. " I got a request for you Star Shooter. I wish to return to Equestria with you. But maybe it might be best that I stay here and go with whoever wishes to go." Giving her a nod

" I doubt this ship will be able to handle your weight. They will have to send a bigger boat to get you back there. Maybe that will happen in a few years." Hawk looks around a moment. Then looked at the castle. It's been so silent for a month now. No more attacks. Not even any magic eaters showing up trying to attack.

" I'm worried, Star Shooter. We buried so many dead a month ago. Now the kingdom itself is so silent. It reminds me before we left Equestria. I still wish I was there. I had a family there. Now I am sure they are dead. But I doubt they wish to see their mother." Blinking a bit. Did Hawk use to be a mare? A family mare even? I got to say that it is new to me.

" Maybe before we leave you can tell me about yourself." The cameras from Hawk looked down at me then back at the Clockwork ponies. I lifted my hoof to tell them to get going. " Please, I wish to know more about you Hawk. I wish to know the pony you used to be before. This happens to you." The Clockwork ponies nodded leaving taking the fixer-upper ship with them. Maybe soon I can work on it to get it. Watching the mech slowly sit down. It surprised me that the large thing could sit.

" I remember a lot of little Star Shooters. I don't remember everything. I wish I did. Now I was a Pegasus mare. Fighting in the war I found myself getting my wings sliced off. Crashing hard into the ground. I don't even remember what happened. Only remembering waking up and in an iron- lung to keep me alive. They told me the Zebras got a hold of me ripping me apart. So Dr. Slice offered me another body. He said he was working on a robotic body that would help me fight in the war." The cameras look at the body. From the sounds of it, she wanted to cry. But I doubt she can now. Because crying would be hard. But It was easy to tell that she hates the fact. That she is stuck in this robotic body.

"Anyway, I said yes. He removed my brain from my body, placing me in what you see now. But I joined the war to protect my home. Even joined to protect Equestria from the evil of Zebras. But now that I talk to them I learn more about them. They had all the right to do what they did to us. Because of what we did to them. I see them now and I feel very bad for them. I do wish that we could go back and never allow that to happen again."

Hawk gave a soft robotic sigh. It's very hard for her to do it seems to be like this. But I wish I could be of more help with her. Hawk stood back up. We walked back to town. I wanted to get working on the boat right away. So when the battle is over I can get back home. So I can see what has happened since. I have been gone. I am worried about Crystal. I am worried about Kipke. As well as Silver Gunner. I just felt that they needed me. I don't know really. But the pain of this was going to be easy for me to lose it. Closing my eyes, stopping a moment. Looking back to see the Merchant staring at me. Looking up to Hawk.

" Go on without me, I need to speak to some pony." Hawk looks to the Merchant then back down to me walking off. I walk to the Merchant.

" Well good job hero. You have ruined the lives of many in the castle. I do hope you understand that...So much bad has happened there because of you. But what's done is done. You better be ready for when the year comes. Be ready I will be watching to make sure if you fail. That I can take that gun from your corpse, clean it, and sell it to someone else that will use it wisely. Maybe they will send your body back to Equestria if you fail. I bet that's all you want to do right now go back there. You should have taken her offer as a child." I snort biting my lip in anger. He had no right to act like this towards me. I am happy to be helping all these creatures. Turning on my hooves to head back to Cliffside. Then they turn to stare at him.

" What gives you the right to think you can act like this towards me? I don't see you doing anything to help. You just show up at these random times. I didn't even see you during the battle. So many died because they wanted to protect their way of life."

The merchant gave me an evil smirk. " Oh, I was there but in my way child. I saw what you did to the poor dragon. I even saw that you gave her a name. That you used the word to destroy most of the Queen’s army. I am sure you love that. That most of the creatures in that armor are dead or need to learn to be an adult. Since most were just foals when they were taken from their families. Oh, wait...I am sure you know but you're so proud of what you did to them." He said with a smirk.

That was a low blow. My anger built and I wanted to harm him. But I am sure that is what he wanted. It made me feel that is all he wanted. He was about to do it. I was so close to using my magic on him to try to kill him. But why couldn't I just control my anger that I held inside me? I need to hold it tightly and deep inside me. So I wouldn't allow this to happen to me again. I don't want to get angry and just hurt some pony out of the blue.

We finally made it back to town. I rushed to the dock to Salty and looked at the ship that brought me here. He whistled. "Hmm, that is going to be a lot of work Star Shooter. So It's doable, it may take a lot of our wood for new boats. But I am willing to do this for you" Nodding with a smile. I felt a tail wrapped around me. Lifting me I could tell that Blaze was pretty upset. Because she doesn't lift me unless something is bothering her a lot. She took me behind one of the buildings letting me go. I turned to see her blinking.

" Star Shooter I don't trust that Burnout pony for what he did to you. I know you trust him. I know you do but it's hard for me." She bites her lip after she spoke. Closing my eyes a moment I had to think of something to say. I am all she has now. So I had to think of a way to give her peace. So all I thought of was kissing her deeply. She had anger flare in her eyes. But after a few moments, she closed her eyes. While our kiss just went on. Pulling from the kiss I smiled.

" Well um...is that a good answer." Blaze gave me an angry look again.

" No Star Shooter. I know you don't wish to talk about it. But I am your wife to be. You need to explain to me why we keep this pony alive that hurt you so badly. The fact I have to wake you up every night you have these nightmares. So please tell me why are we keeping him alive?" I sigh, biting my lip not sure what to think. I snickered softly.

" I doubt it's wise to kill some pony because of what he did to me. Cricket, Mix, and Mouse did worse to me than whatever Burnout did. Also, I don't want to kill him to harm his daughter. His daughter is the reason why I was found in that caravan heading to the castle got me out."

Blaze stood on her feet looking right into my eyes. She wrapped around me tightly. Kissing me very deeply once then pulling away. " I love you Star Shooter but you aren't good at explaining why. So, for now, you will be punished. But that will be when we have time to get to our bed and I will punish you." Blinking my cheeks turned bright red. I felt my insides burning from the thoughts of being in bed with her. Between my legs even burned. Blaze smirked walking away. Sliding her tail along my face. I shiver, slowly shaking my head. Trying to regain me. But Of course, I couldn't when I turn to see Jonon.

" Well, it seems that it's all sex or love between you two." Jonon gave me a gentle smile. All I did was stare at her. How long has Jonon been there? I wanted to ask but she said before. " Ah, so you wish to know how long I have been here?" She chuckles softly. " You got to understand the little hero. I am your bodyguard. I will always be here. Even when your lover.Wishes to punish you. So I bet you're willing to have that punishment hmm?" She said with a smirk.

I just stare at her..My cheeks bright red. I didn’t even know what to say or think. I felt like I wanted to just hide again. But I can't hide when Jonon is here. But I need to get back to Salty to see what he needs to build the ship back up. It's not going to be simple for us to get the ship rebuilt So we can get going. Slowly walking away from Jonon she just chuckled and vanished. I got back to the ship while the Zebras and Salty worked on it.

" Welp this ship wasn't taken care of very well. But I am sure I can make it seaworthy in a few months. So you have a war to win. Then we can get you home. I am sorry that it's going to take that long. I hope you are willing to wait for it to be that hard for you to get back child." Nodding with a smile.

" I knew that it would Salty. But I am happy that you will be able to get me back to Equestria. I wish to know what is going on. I miss my friends. My family and my home. I just need to see what it's going to be happening. But I need to end this silly damn war." Sally nodded. I needed some rest. I slowly walked up the path away from the docks. But for the moment I stood there watching all the Zebras and ponies rushing back and forth back to the gates. At the gates is a caravan full of many creatures getting ready for the battle ahead of us. Looking back to the docks see that they are fishing and that some are trying to forcibly grow gardens faster so we can have food. But even so, that will not be wise to force it. Forcing food to grow with magic is not wise.

I sighed sitting on my haunches closing my eyes a moment listening to the hooves of the wings. I even hear Hawk walking along the road. Along with Roll Roll. I watched them patrol. I feel that it's going to be crazy for all of us to fight. It's impressive how heavy our army is. But How are we going to break into a castle? That is ready to attack us. I just need some sleep. I looked back to see my friends. They seem too busy to talk or to eat something. Slice seemed to be playing chess with Burnout. Of course for the moment Blaze kept watching him. She turned her head to me. Walking to me slapping her tail in the back of Burnout's head. I sigh and didn't like how she was acting. But she wrapped her tail around me, lifting me. Then leading me into the Mansion.

I was working on the boat. Hammering some planks into the holes. Salty painted a name on the side to cover the old name. It used to be called sea nymph. But he turned it into the Warden's Soul. Blinking at the name. He gave me a shrug. I just laughed softly. A stallion in a cloak walked to us with a large box.

" Hey, Salty they let me out of the castle to get some fish from you guys. Of course, Majesty doesn't know everything that is happening in the castle. So if you have any fish you can give me. I will leave the box here." The stallion left the box there and I watched Salty open it up. Seeing that a Griffin is inside.

" Well..blow me..down with a heavy wind..if that ever happens around here. A griffin gift wrapped for us." Glendo stares at me walking out of the crate then looking at the gun strapped to my side. He just stared at me then pulled a sword out from a scabbard on his side. Tossing it to me as it landed in front of me. Looking up to him as he pulled another sword out.

" I have come to take the gun back...I knew Mimic...I was one of her friends. So stop pretending. You're Not the hero like she was. The fact you even have that gun is a problem." Anger filled me. I felt the heat of my anger go to my core. I grabbed the sword hilt with my mouth. I wanted to prove without using my magic. He blinked seeing this. I stood on my hooves as a Zebra got into a strange fighting stance. I just stared at him with my angry eyes. He held the sword in his claws. Charging at me swinging with the weight of my head and with my body. Our sword clash for the moment. My horn glows, grabbing his tail pulling it. He yelped looking at me with hatred in his eyes. He backs up charging at me but Blaze tackles him, her mouth opening up getting ready to burn. Dr. Slice had his saw hand close to his face. Jonon stood there watching as well. Black feather and Skull Crusher handgun are aiming at him.

I spit out the sword. staring at my friends they backed up I stood over him. Staring down at him. "I am sick...and tired of this shit. I just want to go home, you stupid Griffin. I am fighting the Queen. To be able to get back to Equestria. So get out of my way. So I can fight her and get back home." Anger filled me. I tense up. I had tears stream from my face. Because I felt that I wanted to get back to Equestria me even more upset. Blaze slowly pulled me away. The Griffin slowly stood up. He had a smile on his ghoul's face. Slowly stopped crying while Griffin had many eyes him.

" Now...I got a question for you, hero. What happened to Equestria? I know that Mimic wished to go home. She left us behind thinking that Majesty wanted to harm us. But she did nothing to us. Before I turned into a magic ghoul. I have a family there. As well as our other friends. Even if you save us a hero. I won't be returning nor will the descendants of the others." I sighed closing my eyes for a moment then looking back at him a moment.

"Equestria died in the fire. Then we had many heroes show up not too long ago to try to heal it. But it wasn't that easy to heal. It took a long time. But yes taking time is always going to happen. But the hero I knew personally just took care of the place I lived at. A former POW camp. She fought off the Enclave after she was chased out by them. She went back to save her friends. But she then passed away after giving birth. I was there watching her." Lowering my head, closing my eyes tightly. I felt more tears fall from my eyes. I didn't want to bring her up again. But I had to. Many need to understand. That she is the reason I am fighting like I am. I feel maybe it's wise to stop thinking about it. I took a deep breath looking back up to Glendo. I gave a gentle smile.

" I will fight in the name of Mimic to protect you and your family. As well as the family of the friends that stayed behind." Glendo nods looking towards the rest of Cliffside; it was calm while rain slowly started to come down from the sky. He looked around at how very much alive this entire town is. Salty worked on placing fish into the crate. Looking at Glendo.

"Are you going to head back inside the crate with the fish? I know it's not going to be pleasant.." Glendo blinks and nods.

" yes, I will be going back inside the castle. So yes I will be traveling back with the fish." He chuckled. " I am lucky I already stink for being a ghoul after all." Salty rolled his eyes and laughed.

" Yes yes, I know what you mean. I have done that many times myself. It's how I even got on this island. I was on the run from most of the mercenary groups of Griffins. So I had to get away somehow. So I came here. I changed my name and became the Quartermaster of the dock. It's interesting how that works."

Glendo nods. " Please come along with me. I know your friends don't trust me. So I just wish to speak to you." I gave a nod looking to Blaze and the others.

" I will be fine..." Blaze pulled me into a deep kiss I just blushed deeply as she pulled away and winked. I sighed softly. Following Glendo to talk with him. We walked up the path to get near the inn he sat in a chair. I sat in the other beside him and we watched the town gathering stuff up to get ready for the battle ahead. I looked up at Glendo.

" So you wish to learn about Mimic then?" Glendo Calmly asked. I nodded my head. " Well, Mimic was a strong mare. She did what she had to do during the war. But We were friends way before the war even started. I met her before she even met the others. But we met the others. When we joined the army. They didn't allow me to join at first. Since I wasn't a pony. But Mimic made a big stink saying that I have a right to fight in the name of Equestria. She also added it would be better if I didn't join us with the Zebras." He sighed softly, shaking his head. "But we didn't get to name ourselves. We fought as one of course. But our platoon was known as that one with a griffin in it. Yes, make fun of the Griffin."

I chuckled softly. Nodding. " Well, I don't know much about the past. I just know the war was awful. The fact that most look back and see how they treated the Zebras as they did. They start trying to forget how they were treated. It's gotten to the point. I think most of the ponies are trying to fix the problems of the past. It's interesting how most wish to learn from the past. Tiria is the one I told you about. Hated ponies. She called them the most worthless creatures of the world. The biggest reason for the end of the world. She didn't care that she was killing innocent Enclave soldiers either. She said to me when I was young. That sometimes you must cause harm. She then almost killed one and I got my Cutie mark when I lifted her gun to fire on an Enclave more solidly that wished to kill her."

Glendo blinked, staring at me looking at my Cutie mark and then back at me with a smirk. Blinking a moment looking at my Cutie mark again and then looked back to him. "So your talent is being a good shot. Impressive. Mimics talent was mimicking whatever some pony did. She had a photographic memory where she could remember everything. But that also was her problem when she learned. That she was some hero of legend. It went to her head. Then we lost her when she thought she could end the pain that was caused." Skypaw walked out of the inn. Looking towards me and Glendo she set down a paper offering food or drink to us.

" I will take some juice and maybe some fish," I said softly. Glendo shook his head. Skypaw smiled rushing back inside to go get what I wished. But of course, Glendo just kept looking towards me then I looked at him. I had no idea what to say anymore. Oddly, this Griffin had such interest in me. My cheeks turned red and he just kept looking at me. "I um please stop staring at me. It makes me feel that you want something from me."

" I do.." I blinked looking around trying to ignore what he wanted from me. I hope it wasn't my body. " I just want you to fight for us. That's all I want you to know. Also, don't worry I am not attracted to you so relax and calm yourself." A strange scent formed between my legs. I placed my hooves between my legs to block the wetness and try to block the smell. SkyPaw trotted out with the food. But when she set the food down. She sniffed the air staring at me. Her cheeks turned bright red quickly galloping back to the inn. Lifting the juice with my magic to ignore my thoughts. Yes, I was thinking of having sex with a Griffin. Now I need to find Blaze to remove these thoughts from my head.

Glendo stood up from the chair looking down at me. " I am sorry little hero. I didn't mean to cause this." He chuckled. " But I need to get going. Also, a bit of a warning that Salamander that kissed you is on her way here. I think she can smell you." I blinked looking to see Blaze walking up the road from the docks. Glendo flapped his wings heading back to the docks. Oh, Goddess fuck me with a banana. Sighing again, calming down sipping from the cup. Lifting the fork to eat the fish. I was getting tired of the fish. But it's time to get going because. I doubt stopping me from any veggies. I wish we did have veggies here. But It's impressive to me how the Gardens all got destroyed during the attack. I wish we could grow stuff faster.

Blaze sat beside me wrapping her tail around me gently. " I could smell you down there Star Shooter. So were you thinking of me?" I blinked, blushing deeply, pushing away the fish. Since I couldn't eat anymore. Because well I couldn't think of eating since.. Sex was mostly on my mind right now.

" Sadly no...I was thinking of that Griffin taking me. Don't hate me for that. Just ever since I have been here. I know I have gotten older. So I think that wanting sexual intercourse has hit me hard. So It's that time of the year maybe?" My face was bright red thinking about this. Then trying to push it out of my head. I said to myself ``Think of Majesty under....me.....I blink " Blaze can you take me to our bedroom, lease. Please!!" Blaze blinked, staring at me a moment.

" Um, Star Shooter I know it's that time of the month for your kind. But I think you need a cold shower. So please go take a shower. I will please you later my sweet mare." My cheeks were bright red. Since I had so much on my mind.odding calmly looking towards the Griffin then to Blaze. I felt bad for how I felt right now. But I want to stay pure to Blaze.

" I want to stay pure to you my dear Blaze. You mean so much to me. I love you so much." She smiled softly wrapping the tail around me tighter. Then let me go pointing with her tail to the Mansion. Giving a nod I calmly trotted up to the Mansion. When I got to the Mansion. I went to the shower slowly going under the water tower. Turning it on feeling the cold water flow along my body. I felt that the heat from my body slowly cooled. It made me happy that I felt it. Blaze joined me and smiled. A blush formed deeply on my face. Lifting the soap with my magic I rub the soap along Blaze’s body. She just stood there smiling taking another bar of soap in her claws sliding it along me. This was the first time we ever did this. So It made me burn inside.

We kissed deeply while the water removed the soup from us. I am sure we are being watched. Since under us is the cavern. Slowly breaking the kiss I stared at her with a gentle smile on my face. Sighing a bit feeling happy. " Thank you, Blaze, I needed this also I needed you." Blaze chuckled softly wrapping her tail around me, turning the water off.

" I want you to rest Star Shooter. So go get some sleep and we will work on everything out here." Nodding she unwrapped her tail around me. Slowly walking into the mansion heading up into my room. Removing the gun looking at it closely. I feel that I am fighting in the memory of Mimic and her friends. I calmly lay onto the bed slowly falling asleep.

The cloaked stallion carried the large box on his back walking through the up part of the castle Sky. Guards rushed around trying to find the ones stealing from them but they seemed to just ignore him. He hits his hoof on one of the doors that heads down into the slums. A peephole opened up a set of eyes to look out to see him. " I am back with the food." The door slowly opens letting him into the slums Then he closes the door but the one who opened the door stays in the darkness. The stallion who has a strange cutie mark that is a crate. But of course, he is one of those that never got a name from his family. So his name to himself is created Because of the cutie mark. He set the box down in the middle of the slums Next, the door is the bar not far from that is a brothel. Around that are many small places for folks to live in.

Crate looked around opening the box up. " Food folks." All kinds of ponies Zebras and many other creatures leave the many buildings. They each take a fish of course in the middle of the fish Glondo comes out of the crate and he coughs getting out quickly.

" Oh god...." He coughed " I wished my sense of smell went with me. When I became a magic ghoul." Crate chuckled the twins lift the crate with their horns taking it into the bar to clean and serve the fish. The Zebras walked up to Glendo looking at him while one of them walked up to ply ask.

" What did the hero say?" Glendo blinks, nodding thinking a moment on what to say. He looks around to see the guards don't seem to be down here. It's impressive to him that they ignore these underground slums. Then there is a flush and not far from them a door opens up and a flood of water comes in. The water is yellow and full of feces. It was in some strange tub. The twins then rush back out lifting the tub in their magic. Glendo sighed watching them place the tub over a large flame. They dig into the tub removing the feces then they well did what they had to. They ripped it apart with their magic. Taking the food they found. Inside it, yes how pleasant. Then they had to boil the water pouring the water into a system that takes the urine out of the water. Mixing it up. But what caused this to work was two horns of magic. The twin’s horns injected themselves in two holes. That allowed the machine to do its work. Even though it was working. It caused some nasty smell. That caused most of the creatures down here to wear a mask.

Glendo sighed. He hated the fact that all this was going on then he looked back to the Zebra that asked him the question. " Well, the hero is ready to come and help us. But we need to be ready for her as well. She said the town will be taken back first. Then the castle will be attacked. So we need to find a way to open up the sewers to let the sea ponies in.. So they can cause some problems." The Zebra nodded and turned to his friends.

" I know the button to open that up. So tell me when and I will use it." Glendo nodded.

"I shall let you know. But right now I need to check on the twins See if their uncle has been spotted." He walked into the bar heading to it looking to the twins.

" No Glendo he hasn't been seen or released from the prison." The left one said. " I doubt he ever will be." Said the right one. He sighed, shaking his head. Heading upstairs to get some rest.

The island was created to be a prison. A prison to hold the threat of the long past. But the island turned into a home for many because of the spell to keep the creatures in. Brought more lost souls. One's who are trying to run away from the world. Some that came here by mistake. But they use this island to make a family. Then wait for either three years to get in the good graces of Majesty. But if she kept the spell down for too long Too many would try to break free. Since some that are here are here..because she doesn't wish to be alone. At least from what she has told most folks.

The many towns that had been built on this island. Most are now taken over by Majesty's army. But in Cliffside right near the way into the town of Cliffside a bunch of wagons. Full of armor and weapons. It looks to be getting ready for the final battle. The hero being asleep most of what is going on is her friends. Taking care of the battle. Fireclaw the Roc who is the Blacksmith is working overtime. Just to be ready for this battle. He shall join in. The final battle is going to come. Since the Clockwork ponies and the magic ghouls don't need to rest or even eat. They place all the weapons after they clean them into the wagons. Along with the armor. It's been very quiet for many months. But at this moment most of the creatures in the town are sleeping.

But the one that is not asleep is the one known as Hawk. Now known to be a former mare. She went down to the docks to look through but zebras brought over some paint. Hawk lowers herself fully down. They start painting a hawk on the sides of the nose of the Mech. Placing eye's on the side of it. They paint eagle claws into the feet of the mech. But the poor creature doesn't even know the idea of feelings anymore. She still knows love and anger. But she knows she won't be able to feel it anymore.

Hawk goes back to her patrol. Walking along the path looking to the Mansion and looking into the window. Seeing the Hero and Blaze their limbs intertwined together. Just simply watching wished to herself that she could smell the scent of their fun they had not too long ago. But she heard a voice behind her.

" Hello Hawk..." The voice said calmly the large mech turned halfway seeing D.r. Slice. The cams on the mech itself stare at the former pony Dr. " Impressive ain't it ever since I came here you always seem to avoid me. But it's been so long...Haw. I know I failed yo. I know the war destroyed your body. Kept you from your family. But we didn't fall in the hell that went on back in Equestria. The bombs that fell would have killed us to Hawk.."

Hawk's Sam's just started at D.r. Slice. " D.r. I know I haven't wished to talk to you since we saw each other. Also, the fact that you're one of the companions of that silly legend. That I know that is fake. I just don't wish to ruin the rest of this for the hero. I just don't know if I could ever look at you the same way again..After you promised me that you would make me a body. You turned me into this. Project Mech. A large robotic being. That can break a siege. It would have been interesting if you placed my brain in a tank."

Slice laughed softly looking into the window. Looking back to Hawk. " Is there a reason you're watching the two lovers?" Hawks Cams turn to look into the window. Then turn back to look at D.r. Slice. Then the cams did a strange shrug like motion.

" Because I wish I could feel again D.r. Slice. But all I can see is that you now understand my issue. You caused yourself more pain trying to find a cure for what you did. You created Project mech and project stopwatch To go back into time to stop your wife from dying. But it was used to stop the damn war. Then Project Mouse. why did you create those things?"

Slice sighed robotic-like. " I regret what we created in those labs. I help create Mix, Mouse, And Cricket. Trying to understand how the magic eaters work. I wish her, of course,e created Cricket and then mix. Giving some of the Magisters the ability to talk and to think like the ones we have seen. But I am guessing before we showed up. Most were lucky enough to change themselves." The two just kept chatting but of course when Blaze moved off the bed to look out the window. She softly said with a deep yawn.

" Do you two mind?" Hawk and Slice turn to look at Blaze. " Or I could tell you how many times I got her to scream this time." She said with a smirk. Suddenly when that was said. Hawks Cams turned red in the middle like she was blushing or seeming to. Hawk quickly stood up walking away. Slice looked with his three eyes.

" I um....bye! " DR slice went over the edge of the cliff hovering down to the ground. Hawk walked the long way. Blaze laughed going back to the hero to get some rest.

It was getting closer to the battle to start. Most are getting ready for their final meals on that day. It was going to be hard to battle and fight for most of them. But for the hawk, it's just simply going to be like the war in the past. She wishes she could feel for all those she fought and killed in the ages past. She will last forever or till the ability to repair is destroyed. She knows while she patrol's along the path. Most called her he..Since most thought her brain and the fact she has a male name. It's just the fact she forgot her real name. She only remembers why she is in this body and why her brain is running this machine. Her feet clomp on the ground watching the fact that many will be dead in a few months. She wishes she could be helpful in this battle. But she will. For now, it's time to wait when more time passes and then the battle shall start.

Time moves forward as all-time seems to do. It’s a matter of how most see the time. Some see it as a heart beating some see it as just a key turning the clock. But most would never understand it when the time is right they would.

Many months past the eyes within a prison.

I open my eyes staring out the cell in front of me finally seeing the one known as Cricket. A smile forms along my lips.

“Is she willing to allow me to do what I have been wishing to do since I was ahem held here?”

To some, I sound evil to others. I have been known by too many

Cricket snarled, showing his teeth.

“The fact she is willing to work with you upsets me. How you got in here without the magic being taken down bothers me. The magic should have stopped you before you made it in here. That salamander that came on the ship with the hero. It seems to have a trick or two. To get you here. Now your offer to use one of her minions to use them as a scheme later on she has agreed.”

I chuckle softly offering a device from a compartment in my belt.

“Put this in the one known as Ruby Glide. I need a puppet and a Magic eater is the best type.”

Cricket takes the device looking at it. The device looks like a slave master chip. Magic flows through it. He lifted his head to look at me in my eyes. I could tell he wasn’t happy with this idea. Looking closer at the device. Then pockets it looking towards the way out of the prison.

“How will I get it inside her head? She is now at Cliffside.”

I laugh softly.

“Oh very easy, tell Doc the good doctor that he owes me. Just give him my name and he shall.”

Cricket smirks looking towards me again.

“What is your name?”

I laugh softly.

“Wheel Tread.”

Max Level.
