The return of a legend

A lost legend.

Arrows darken the sky and swords and shields clashed. All the races of the world fighting in constant warfare. But one nation keeps its citizens equestria home of the knight saber the wielder of the elements of harmony. The armies that attacked equestria were destroyed by saber and queen faust. Faust fought for her children and saber fought to protect the land he now called home. Saber is a six-foot-eight man with black hair. His eyes are blue and he has scars from battle.

“Faust please stay here you can’t risk yourself in this battle you and your girls just lose their father and your husband two weeks ago. Stay here with your girls and I'll go and fight the dragon hoards. You can use your magic and create a shield to protect the nation.”

“Saber I can’t let you fight an army of dragons by yourself. It’s a death wish Saber.”

“Faust if the dragons are stopped then the war will stop. If I can make a peaceful world, then I'll gladly give my life for it.” She looked at me and to her two young children sleeping in the bed and crib. She looked back to me and I looked at her.

“Saber kneel in front of me.”

“What why?”

“Please, my friend kneel.”

I did as she asked and kneeled in front of her and she drew her sword and raised and lowered it over my shoulders.

“Saber for the bravery you show in battle and your readiness to fight for the weak. By my power as queen, I name you the first knight of equestria and the first true wielder of the elements of harmony.”

Once she was done her horn started to glow and so did my right hand. After a second my hand started to burn and her cutie mark of the half day and night formed on my hand. I looked at the mark and back to her and saw her smiling.

“Raise sir Saber and go and do your duty for your home.”

I smiled and stood and looked at her she was smiling. I knew this maybe the last time I saw her so I held my arms out and hugged her and she hugged me back. “I promise I'll come back somehow I'll come back. Besides I am these girl’s god farther so I need to spoil them you know.” She laughed and she had a sad look in her eyes.

“Please do come back to them Saber they’ll need you like I have needed you.”

I hugged her one last time and let go and let the room to retrieve my elements. The elements were made from Faust's magic and my five core traits and one from her magic. Honesty, loyalty, kindness, laughter, generosity and Faust's magic. I got into the tower where I keep the elements held and I used my magic and call the six elements to me. All of the flew over to me and started to float behind me and a bright light covered my hands, feet, and lines of it covered my body. I started to focus and the stones started to spin and I felt the power start to flow around me and I vanished and appeared in front of the border with the dragon kingdom. I pushed power to my feet and pushed myself off the ground and I flew to the capital of the dragon kingdom. As I flew I saw move meant on the ground and I saw a few large shapes down there as well. I flew down and saw it was a massive army of dragons marching to the border and I saw one with a huge golden crown. From the voice, I could tell he was talking how they would conquer the weak ponies. I felt anger hearing this and I turned in the air and shot down to the ground and I did a sonic boom and crashed into the middle of the army and kicked up a massive dust cloud. Once the cloud settled I saw that I had killed thirty of them on impact. I looked to the one with the crown and he was looking at me as well.

“What in tartarus are you and why did you kill my soldiers?!”

I looked around and saw that there were about a thousand of them and I looked back to him. I Raised my arms and then throw them back down and two black crystal blades formed and I pointed one at the dragon. “I killed them because you want to conquer my home so I’m going to stop you. You damn dirty lizard now turn back or you all will die.” He looked at me and started to laugh.

“You think that I the dragon king rex would run from a weak thing like you? Kill this weakling and then we can go and kill and eat as many ponies as we want!”

A large red dragon started to walk to me with a large war hammer. I started to charge magic into my black swords and once he was close enough I swung my blade up and cut the dragon though the chest and ten other dragons as well. The other dragons saw this and now looked angry and charged me. I focused and the elements started to spin so fast a bright blue circle was behind me and I pushed the power I was making to the swords and I jumped at the dragons and started to swing my sword and they started to breathe fire and swinging their weapons. Hours passed as we fought and my armor was cracked and broken in some place. But soon I had wiped out almost all of them. After I killed half of them many ran in fear of me. Once I had killed my six-hundred dragon the king shouted for them to back off. I was breathing heavily and looked at him and I saw that his left leg and one of his horns were cut. I must have hit him with some of my attacks I smiled when I saw the pain on his face.

“I’ve had it with this thing I will kill this thing myself.”

“Try me you big bastard.” After I said that I charged my magic one last time as he drew a huge sword and charged me. I jumped and flew at him and I was pushing some much power into my blades that they were giving off the same bright blue as the elements. He got close to me he swung his blade down and I but my blades together and tried to block the attack. His blade connected and I was slammed into the ground creating impact crater as I hit the ground. I slowly got back up and looked to see an evil grin and raised the blade again but this time I put both my blades together and swung them down and destroyed his sword. But after I did that he turned and swung his tail at me. I stabbed my swords in the ground and put my hands together and created a shield around me and just as I finished his tail made impact the crater had grown from the hit. He keeps attacking and soon some of the few dragons that were left by their king's side started to attack as well. "I can’t take much more of this I’ve nearly run my magic out I need to end this."

“What’s wrong getting tired? “

He was talking in a mocking tone as if I was an insect. They keep up their attack as I tried to think of a way to end this but as I thought I only had one way to end this but the elements would be without a wielder and that would let someone power hungry take them. I looked up and saw a large dome from over the boards of my home. I smiled and looked to the dragons who stopped their attack and looked and I started to laugh at their shocked looks. “Well looks like I keep you all long enough for faust to get the shield up.” I looked at the dragon king to see a very annoyed look on his face.

“So you were only distracting us your nothing but a pesky bug!”

“Yep but you see now that the shield up nobody that has ill intent can enter the country. The threat will have to come from the inside so you nor any other country can attack this country again. But as for now, I’m going to end us all here and now.” I smiled and crossed my arms and started to pull as much power as I can into my body and the shield I had around me was pulled into it as well. I keep pulling power into my body and the elements started to circle around my body and I saw the dragons started to be pulled to me.

“What are you doing you bug!”

“This is the end for us both I’m going to send all of us to the void a place where no one can escape.” Soon a black void opens under us and started to spread and blue lines and symbols started to spread across the black void. “Faust I know you can hear me so all I can say is sorry it looks like I’m done for but don’t worry I leave the elements behind to only be use me if I ever return or those that can bear them until they are no longer need. I’ve also learned that you or I can bare the power of all six at once so never let just one bare them.” I closed my eyes and sent the elements back to the castle to wait for those who can wield them. As I and the dragon entered the void a ray of light struck me and started to pull me back to the world above I then heard Faust's voice.

“No Saber you will return and you will not die I give you my immortality so you can do your duty when you return and serve this country once again. I will find a place you can rest and wait for when you are needed again.”

As I heard her voice for the last time I closed my eyes and was soon asleep and I would sleep till my elements were to call to me once again. To take them up and defend this land I call home.
