Dragon capital

I took scarlet back to the castle and she told her mother about her moving in while I put a rune barrier around the castle. The guard had also gotten their defensive round set and the even took a manticore down. I let them all know how proud I was until scarlet ran out of the castle. She ran up to me and tackled me to the ground in a hug.

"Mother said I could move in with you!"

The guards and citizens laughed and wished me and her good luck. I smiled and teleported us back to the tower. We appeared outside of the tower and we looked around and saw that no one was around. "Where is everyone?" Scarlet asked the same thing as we started to walk around the town. We were in the middle of town when we heard the first sound in half and hour. It came from sugar cube corner and I pushed scarlet behind me and we walked to the shop. When we walked in the shop was dark and when the door closed the lights flicked on and multiple yelling voices.

"Surprise."

"The new couple in town."

Pinkie then ran up to us and started to ask a lot of questions.

"Did we surprise you two?! Oh are you two going to get married and going to have babies?! Wait wouldn't that make saber a king a...."

Twilight and applejack covered her mouth and dragged her away. All the way she was still talking into their hands. I looked at scarlet and she was muttering babies and marriage over and over. I laughed a little and we started to talk and eat at the party until the dragoness from earlier flew back to the middle of the town. The town started to panic and me and scarlet just laughed. I walked over to sweet table and made her a plate of cakes, cookies and cupcakes. The panic stopped when I and scarlet walked out and gave her the plate.

"Thank you slayer."

I smiled and me and scarlet sat beside her as she ate. I also summoned a large ruby and diamond for her and she smiled. Soon everyone in the shop came out and started to walk over to us. Spike also walked up to us and looked up at her and she smiled at him.

"Well aren't you a cute little dragon. Are you the dragon lord ember spoke about that helped her in the trials?"

The two of them talked as me and scarlet quick walked to the tower. I got the books of time magic and the belt I could wear to carry the elements. I don't think coming to the dragon lands in battle armor would be good. Scarlet also got the both of us a few pairs of clothes. She demanded at she come with me and if I didn't let her come I'd be sleeping on the couch for the next month. She also threatened to cry and she knew her mother would kill me I made her cry. When I had all the beginner in time magic books together and the belt I walked out of the library and saw scarlet had a large travel bag. I saw the smile on her face but I saw something strange with her hair. That the base of her horn her hair was turning blue and I looked at her tail and at the base the hair was doing the same. I looked at her wings and they looked to be changing as well. They looked to be bigger and longer. 'This is new never seen a changling's hair or wings change. Maybe she's starting to become a queen?'

"Saber what have I said about starting at my flank outside of the bedroom?"

I looked at her face and blushed. "I'm not looking at your flank its your hair and wings. Their changing your wings are getting longer and bigger. Your hair at the base of your horn and tail are changing to the same blue as your mother maybe a shade lighter." She looked at me and then started to laugh a little.

"Oh is that it my body getting ready to start baring children. Now that I've found my mate my body is starting the change. It will take a few weeks to finish but once it's done I'll be ready to take over as the queen when my mother hands down her crown. Haven't you noticed that I've stopped wearing my crown?"

I rubbed the back of my head and looked at her. "I just thought you didn't wear it the whole time. To be honest I really did give it much thought beyond that." She laughed and grabbed my hand and pulled me down the stairs and out of the tower. When we're out I activated and old barrier spell and the tower was now untouchable to anyone but me. When we got back to the town center and saw a cute site. The foals of the town were running around the dragoness and she would pretend to try and catch them. When she turn to try and catch a filly that ran behind her she saw us and smiled sheepishly.

"Oh um, hello again slayer."

I laughed as she blushed and I walked over to twilight and handed the books to her. "Sorry twilight but I need to go with her so here's all the time magic starter book. Time magic theory, beginner's time spell and three books about the history of time magic." She swelled like a fan girl who just meet her idle.

"Thanks!"

When I let go of my end of the books she ran to her library in a mad dash. Spike said that I just made his life hell for the next two days. "Sorry spike I'll get you a nice big gem when I get back swear."

"All right I'll hold you to it too."

We nodded at each other and I turned and looked!at the young dragoness. She was talking with scarlet and before I could walk over to them a arm wrapped around my throat and pulled me into the door or the shop. When the arm let go I looked back and saw twist was behind me with a very upset look.

"Saber your leaving again why and with a dragon of all things!"

Before I could answer scarlet walked in and grabbed me. She pulled me back out saying that we had to go. "Ok just stop besides we need to get the queen." She looked at me and confused.

"Why do we need my mother saber?"

I looked at her and face palmed forgetting this is a different time. I looked back at her and started to talk. "No the queen is a sky ship me and queen Faust used to travel to different kingdoms before the war. Her full name is the black queen and we can use her to fly to the dragon lands." She got what I meant and the three of us when to the new changeling kingdom. When we got to the castle the guards all when on the defensive as we walked to the training field. When the guards on the field saw me coming they moved aside and I had my way to a large boulder. I covered my right hand in my magic and made a fist and punched the center of the boulder. My magic covered the boulder and the old stone and a black gate started to open. It was like the void but unlike the void this gate was a large magic storage space we keep the black queen and are more important thing in. When the gate was wide enough I stuck my arm in and used my magic to grabbed a hold of the ship. Then a idea popped into my head and I smiled evily. 'Scarlet get ready for the scare of a live time.' Before anyone could do anything I act like I was pulled into the gate and yelled. "The hell?!" As I moved into the gate I heard the guards, scarlet and the dragon all lung for me. When I was in the magic space I looked back and could see the panic going on out there. I looked back to the space and saw the the black queen, the old documents, the ancient magic artefacts and to my shock the sword king rex used.

Scarlet pov

Saber yelled and was pulled in to the black vortex. The dragon me and the guards all lunged forward trying to grab him but we stopped when we reached the gate. We didn't know what was behind it so all we could do is wait. As we did some of the guards and the dragon started to panic and I wasn't to far from that same. But we all stopped when a ship head pushed through and soon a laughing saber came through. When the panic stopped anger took it's place and I flew onto the ship and started to chase him around the deck.

"Come on scarlet you've got to admit that was a good one!"

I turned and jumped over the relling in front of the wheel and landed on top of him. But the position we were in had my breast in his face and I head voices.

"Wow the princess seems to like it the rough way."

"Ya and I hate to say it but I'm jealous of the princess of I were her I'd never get mad at him."

I stopped listening to them when saber wrapped a arm around my lower back and stomach. He sat us both up and when we were up I punched his side and laid my head on his shoulder. "I thought I lost you you idiot don't ever scare me like that again." As I talked I felt my eyes start to water and he held me tighter.

"I'm sorry honey I just wanted to give you a little scare. But we need to get moving the queen is a slower means of travel but very safe."

We stayed like that until I was ready to let go. Once I did the guards that were on board got off leaving me him and the dragon alone on the ship. When we were saber walked up a set of stairs next to the right side of the ship and over to a large stone table next to the wheel. Me and the dragon walked up the stairs and saw a hole in the small table and saber made a large ball of magic in his hand.

"Stand back this is the dangers part."

We did as he said and we moved back as he gripped the magic ball and slammed his fist and arm into the table. When he did the whole ship shock and black lines formed on the stone and started to move up his arm. When it got to his sleeve the magic energy started to destroy it. He started to grunt in pain and I started to see his arm starting to shake but as I was about to run over and stop him the lines return to the stone and the ship stopped shaking. When it did the ship started to float and saber pulled his arm out and I saw it was black and a little smoke was!coming from inside the stone.

Saber pov

The pain worst this time recharging the large magic core of the ship. The elements were!slowly healing the damage from the massive magic drain. It would take a day or two to fully heal so I summoned a roll of medical wrap and started to warp my arm only for scarlet and the dragoness to come over and look at the wound.

"Slayer are you ok that looks like a bad burn."

I finished wrapping my lower arm and tied it into a knot before answering. "Ya I'll be fine just burned out my arm restarting the magic core." I clenched and unclenched my fist a few times and then walked over to the wheel. I looked at the dragoness and she looked back. "Is the old capital still to the east or has it moved?" She laid down on the deck as she started to talk.

"It has moved to the west there was a large gem deposit and the old capital was lost after you defeated the last king. You know there something I always wanted to know about you."

I turned the ship to the west as I listened to her. "What do you want to know?" I looked at her and she was looking at my arm as she talked.

"Is it true you brought my whole species to it knees and any other kingdom that attacked?"

I looked at her and she was still looking at my arm. "Yes but your species was nearly wiped out with king rex even dragging kids onto the battlefield. Me and Faust let them get away but you king would just kill them later and I was blamed for it." She and scarlet were looking at me in horror and she got up at looked at me.

"So the greatest evil the monster who killed you young of the kingdom was the king and not you?!"

I nodded and used my magic to set the main course for the new capital. With that done I jumped over the relling and to the rooms on the ship. They followed me down and into one of the rooms and looked around at the large room. In both rooms were a large queen bed full feather pillows and a desk and a large bookshelf near the door. Their was a window in front of the bed and a closet in the far left corner of the room. I took my and scarlets bag over to the bed and threw it on the bed and then looked back at them. "Miss you can have the room next door because we won't arrive for a few hours. So why don't we all get some sleep?" The dragoness nodded and walked out of the room leaving me and scarlet alone. I walked over to her and she wrapped her arms around me!when I was close and pulled my head down to hers.

"What do you say to braking the bed in~"

I smiled and picked her up and for the next two hours we were like rabbits in heat. After we were done I covered her sleeping body and got out of bed. I opened my bag and got a pair of boxers and pants and put the elements belt back on and waled out of the room. I walk over to the side of the ship and saw we were starting to inter the bad lands and sighed in content. 'When was the last time I went to the dragon capital in a peaceful manner and not to fight? Well it doesn't matter now I have someone to protect and if we keep going like we are going to start having kids.' I was brought out of my thoughts when I heard the dragoness voice and I blushed really hard at her words.

"Um slayer you know you should tell her not to scream so much. For a second I thought you were trying to kill her."

I looked back at her and saw her scales were a little red as well. 'Wow even though the green it's still red wired. Wait why am I just noticing that she looks smaller.' She was now about scarlets high and her horns were more pronounce and her tail was a little longer. She also had a pair a c-cup breast and she was looking at me.

"Um slayer what ate you looking at?"

I turned around and looked at her and walked up to her and looked at her. She looked at my scars and blushed even harder and I patted her head. She looked at me and I smiled at her. I leaned closer to her head and started to whisper. "Oh my your no class one your a magic class aren't you?" She jumped back and looked at me in horror.

"How do you know about us? We've been hiding it since sweet diamond came from your home nation."

I stopped sweet diamond my old love the dragoness who slashed my chest and flew away. The love I lost when a hide the dragon clan I trained to use magic. I looked at her and asked in a low voice. "Is she still alive?" The dragoness looked at me and then nodded and told me what happened.

"No when she refused to receive her clan and would not reveal where we were the dragon council killed her. My clan were to small in numbers to save her but they at least made it painless for her."

For a hour she told me what she knew and I told her about how her clan learned magic. 'I can't let myself cry now I have to stay strong.' When we were done I saw a large mountain near a river and a large cliff line. I walked over to the side of the ship and saw it wasn't a mountain but a volcano a somewhat active on. I looked way from the volcano and looked at her and she was looking at the volcano. "You should get back to your large size and get ready and I'll go and get scarlet and get dressed."

"Ok slayer."

Thrity minutes pasted until a dragon guard flew up to the ship.

"Halt who is the captain of this vessel."

I walked out and looked at him and when he saw me he went stiff. "That would be me the knight of queen Faust and as your species calls me the slayer." He was sweating bucks and slowly stated to move away.

"What do you want here slayer?"

The dragoness flew up to him and started to talk to him.

"My name it ocean gem and dragon lard ember asked me to bring him here to help make peace with the ponies."

"Ok please wait here and I will have a place made ready foe you to land the ship."

We wait about twenty minutes until he and a smaller blue dragoness came back. This dragoness was in armor and had a staff with a blood ruby in it. Her horns were rounded like oceans and she had red eyes. I walked up to her and scarlet was with me and when we were in front of her she ignored everyone and was looking me over. When she was done she smiled and when to try and touch my chest but scarlet stopped her.

"He's mine back off lizard."

The dragoness showed her fangs and scarlet flared her magic but I broke them up. "Ok let's just get to the business and we can act like the adults we are." The looked at me with anger but I gave it right back and my trumped both of theirs. They both backed down even the large male dragon backed away from me. With everyone quite I nodded and used my magic to lower us to a lake in front of the volcano. When that was done we all flew to the volcano mouth and when I looked down in to the mouth and saw the city. Like the old capital the had building on both the walls and outer ring of the volcano. I picked scarlet up and followed the dragons in and I cast a spell to keep the air around us cooler then the sounding air and rock. When we touched down the civilian dragons all looked and the hatchling all looked at me and the dragon lord. They dragons looked at me in fear and pulled the kids back as we walked down the street.

"Were going to the temple of the elders were we are going to talk. I can also find a place for you to stay the night so you don't have to sleep on your ship."

I looked at scarlet who was still in my arms and stared death at the lord. But as we walk a teenager stopped us. He had red and yellow scales and a long mussel and a average size tail. The dragon was a male and he looked at scarlet in my arms and I got ready to knock him into next week.

"Wow there friend I see you brought a rare delicacy do you think I could have a arm or leg?"

He licked his lips started to walk over to us. I sat scarlet down and did something I haven't done in a long time. I let my killing intent wash over the city and brought all but scarlet to their knees out of fear. I clinched my right fist so tight the knuckle cracked and the ground under me cracked. I walked right up to the drake and grabbed his throat and pulled up to look at me. I looked into his eyes and saw fear and panic in his eyes. "Now you listen to me she is my love and if any one of you lizards even lay a claw on her then I'll bring you race to its knees like I did in the past got me lizard?!" I yelled the last part with all my rage and every dragon near us were looking on in fear.

"Y-yes sir."

After he said that I cut the killing intent off and let him drop to the ground. He got to his feet and turned and ran away from me and waited until I couldn't see him anymore.

"Wow you really are the slayer what would you say to staying in my cave tonight~"

"I told you he's mine back off!"

This is going to be a long day god help me. I used my magic to hold them apart as we started to walk again. Ocean keep close to me and lead the way while the other two keep arguing. "I swear their like kids."

"HEY!"

They both yelled and Ocean laughed and I looked back and smirked at them and scarlet scolded.

"You are so sleeping on the couch for the next week and no sex for two weeks!"

I blushed and closed her mouth with magic and I looked around. "Their are kids here you can't yell that." I looked around and as I did the parents pulled they back and did their best to intimidate me but failed. I keep walking until someone ran into me and the fell back. I looked forward and saw a little drake about the size if a four year old with white scales and a pink under. But a mark on his chest got my attention and it pissed me off. On his chest was a brand that meant he was abandoned by his family or clan. The brand was of a dragon head facing to the right and it had the slash marks behind it. 'He most have not known only magic can remove it and hurt himself to try and get it off. He looks malnourished and like he'd be beaten.' I knelled down and used my magic to lift the young drake up and looked him in the eyes.

"Please don't hurt me anymore."

He was shaking in my magic hold and my eyes soften. I opened a magic vortex and pulled out a large diamond and a gallon of water and looked around again. To my right there were some tables at what looked like a abounded set out restaurant. I walked over to the best looking table and seat down and the other followed us and sat down. I floated the water and the diamond to the young drake. "Here kid you must be hungry and what clan kicked you out?" He took a small bite out of the diamond an then looked at me.

"It was the old crown family."

I knew the clan he was talking about and ember did to and from her look she was made.

"Sky burner what have you do this time."

Ocean looked at her and looked shocked and started to talk.

"The head council member the old number one?!"

I raised and eyebrow at that dismissed it. 'I'll know soon enough and I'll have a long talk with this sky burner.' We all seat there for a hour and I summoned three more diamonds for the the!drake who was named white light.

"Um, sir slayer thank you for the food and water."

I looked at him and smiled at him. "Please call me saber and you welcome light but I must ask where are you sleeping at night. It's closer you aren't sleeping in a home from the cracked and broken scales." He looked at the table and then to the brand.

"I'm sleeping in a abounded house on the edge of the town and the teenagers that hang out there beat me up a lot."

He was starting to cry and I felt my heart go out for light. I was about to stand up and embrace him but scarlet beat me to as she walked over and picked him up and hugged him into her chest. He started to cry into her chest and she looked at me with eyes full of rage and pity.

"Saber I want you to make the lizard pay for making this poor child suffer."

I nodded and she sat back down and let light cry into her chest. I looked at ember and she was looking at light. "Ember is the right to combat still a right here?" She looked at me and nodded.

"Yes but his a council member so he can pick a warrior from his clan to fight for him given his age he most likely do that."

After that we all left for the temple of the elders. Many of the dragons looked at the sleeping light in scarlet's arm and ember stayed close to her and him. Soon we walked up a temple built into the volcano. The gate were much like old roman architecture and a stair way over lava and I could see a class two dragon in the lava. But we stopped when the dragon raised out of the lava and I saw he was as tall as the stairs. He had black scales all over his body and he had two horns that pointed forward like!a bull and he a long scar going down his chest.

"Halt only the dragon lord is allowed to move on from here you bu..."

When the young dragon in scarlet's arms he let out a annoyed growl.

"I thought you be dead by now you little shit."

After he said that he reacher for them and I spike my power and pushed it to fifty percent and his eyes widened. He looked from them to me as my body was giving off the blue glow of the elements as he smiled.

"I'll be you must be the one of had the whole city on edge. Have to say thought you be much big then you are you little bug."

I snored and in the blink of an eye I was on his snout with one of my black crystal swords about to stab into his right eye. He lunged back and I jumped back onto the stairs to see him falling back in to the lava. I looked back to them all and started to walk again. "Let's but these basterds in their place."
