Chapters Everything seemed normal this morning I was about to leave my safe house when I turned on the car radio and heard that it was chaos in the streets, there was looting, rioting and other things that are associated with the end of the world. I was lucky enough to have went to check my supplies at my safe house at the edge of town last night and fall asleep here, my friends all laughed at me when I told them I had a safe house... there probably all dead unfortunately, anyway I spent the time hiding in a corner holding my gun hoping nobody would come near here, because most likely they would try to kill me for my supplies.
Hours passed as I began to drop my guard that anybody would come and left my corner to grab food and turned on the radio and let it play whatever was on. “Attention listeners, this is Chet Ubetcha coming with the local report its chaos in the streets as end of the world rioters and looters are everywhere it's truly the end time for us all and...” The feed was cut off by gunshots and I could only guess what happened next as I turned off the radio and listened to music on my phone for the next few hours before the battery died. I really should have put a generator or a car battery rig job in here...
“I should get some shut eye.” I said to myself as I went towards the the bed. It was getting pretty late anyway hopefully this whole thing blows over soon. But as I closed my eyes I heard something that made me jump. When I looked around I saw that I wasn’t in my safe house anymore, but a white void. “Hello?” I called out as there seemed to be nobody there.
“Hello my son. ” A rather loud voice called out as I looked around not seeing anybody.
“Okay either I’m hearing the voice of God or I’ve gone crazy.” I said.
“No it's the first one. ” The voice which identified as God said.
“Okay ‘God’ where am I?” I asked.
“Well David congratulation you’ve passed the test. ” God said.
“Okay what test?” I asked.
“You’ve heard of the Mayan Calendar right? ” God asked.
“Yeah...Oh that was the test.” I said.
“Yep your a fast learner. ” God said.
“So what's the reward?” I asked knowing that there had to be a reward.
“Well you could return to earth or you could gain power and travel to a new world ” God said. A ball of light formed in front of me, quickly turning into an elderly man dressed in… a trench coat and grey jeans? “This look is a personal favorite.
“Okay I’ll bite what happens if i chose to go to a new world I have family and friends here that will notice I’m gone.” I said.
“Well if you decide to go to another world I’ll create a clone of you to replace you while you head off on your adventure. ” God said.
“Okay I want Immortality and Jack Sparrow's compass” I said as God took a step back.
“Are you sure you want Immortality you do realise that you will never be able to head to Heaven, hell or purgatory ever right? ” God asked.
“I’m aware you said power I want Immortality” I said as I started to glow.
“Is there anything else? ” God asked.
“I could stand to learn how to use a gun and sword.” I said as a sharp thing stabbed me in the back of my neck. “GAH!” I screamed “What was that for?” I asked rubbing the back of my neck.
“You did asked to learn how to use a sword and gun I just gave you hundreds of years of knowledge in a second. “ God said.
“You could have warned me.”
“You're immortal now get use to pain both physical and emotional. ” God said rather coldly. “Now what world do you want to go to? ” God asked.
I thought about it for a good minute before saying “You know what, you pick a world for me.” I said as a pair of new clothing floated in front of me.
“Your new clothing. ” God said. As I started to get undressed and put on the pirate clothing.
“Why Pirate clothing?” I asked while holding the cutlass that the clothing came with.
“It's going to help you fit in in the world you're going to. ”
“Is it a One Piece world because if it is want to arrive on top of the One piece.” I said wanting to screw over Monkey D Luffy bastard spent over five hundred episodes looking for the damn thing and still hasn't found it.
“No, this isn’t a One piece world. ” God said as a door opened up in front of me and I walked in.
As I walked out of the door I looked around and saw that I was in an alleyway. As I walked out of the alleyway I was surrounded by furry people, before I could react I saw some bull people chasing after a bird girl, I would have ignored it as it wasn't my business until I overheard one of the Bull men shout, “Come back here slave!” That's when I ran towards the bird girl and the Bull men. “Get back here slav-” The bull man was cut off by my sword entering his head, before I could react to killing somebody I was hit by the second bull man’s fist knocking me to the ground and dropping my sword.
Before I could react the bull man grabbed my sword and plunged it directly into my chest “That takes care of that nuisance, now back to the slave.” The bullman said as he turned his back to me as I got up he looked around for the Bird girl so he didn’t notice me until I plugged my sword into his back. “How?” he asked as he died.
I simply stood over him rummaging through their corpses disgusted people passing me, but soon enough I found two bags of gold coins and some throwing knives. “Now where did that bird girl head off to?”I asked myself as I saw her cowering behind something. “You can come out now the Bull Men are dead.” I said as she came out of her hiding spot.
“They were called Minotaurs.” She said.
“Okay the minotaurs are dead, now we probably should get out of here as I did hear mentioning of some guards coming.” I said as she just stood there. “What are you waiting for, there going to return you to slavery.”
“What's the point in running?” She asked all sad like. Before I could answer I grabbed her hand and began to run away from the men in the golden armor. ”What are you doing?” she asked
“Saving your life.” I said as I pulled out my compass which lead us to a large ship. “Let's hope there is nobody on.” I said as we got onto the ship seeing the deck abandoned. “I guess everybody was on-” I was cut off by my sword to my throat by the Bird girl. “Okay, why?” I asked.
“Because I know you're working with them, why else would you chose the biggest slave ship in the known world.”
“This is a slave ship?” I asked as the blade got closer to my neck.
“Don’t lie to me.” She growled.
“Look I’m telling you I’m not... Aw crap.” I said as she looked confused as I ran to the board and tried to knock it into the water. “Could use some help here.” I said as she realised what I was doing and helped me knock the plank connecting the ship to the dock into the water causing the guards to have to jump onto the boat and climb up which made me realise that they were horse people. I quickly kicked one of the guards into the water where I watched him struggle to climb back out of the water before sinking down that a third person I’ve killed today and what was the stipulation for coming here...oh right be peaceful why do I have the feeling God's pissed at me. Before I could dwell on it I saw a rope connecting the Boat to the dock which prevented it from sailing off, I held my Cutlass and ran towards the rope knocking another guard into the water where he drowned make that four people that I’ve killed today, as I cut the rope the boat started to drift off towards the open area of the port. “Bird Girl get to the help and steer this ship.” I said kicking another guard into the water that makes five kills today.
“That's not my name, but fine.” She said as she ran towards the helm of the ship to grab the wheel but a few guards tried to get in her way.
“Oh bloody hell.” I said as I ran towards her tackling a guard into the water before attacking two guards that knocked me to the ground as felt something in my back pocket I quickly pulled it out and saw that it was a flintlock pistol with a note on it saying that it was a magic pistol I had no other choices so I aimed the gun and fired at one of the guards causing his head to explode and causing the guard beside him to drop his weapon and surrender. After killing the rest of the guards which brought my kill count for the day in the mid twenties I decided to check up on bird girl. “So what is your name.” I asked.
“My master calls me birdy.” she said.
“Well your master’s not going to call you than anymore what’s your real name?” I asked.
“I don’t know all I’ve known is Birdy.” she said.
“Well let me come up with a new name for you.” I said as I thought of a new name she had a german accent so I thought of a german name. “Greta?” I asked as she snapped at me.
“Why do you want to give me a name anyway, you trying to own me?” She snapped.
“What no. It's just nobody should have to live as a slave.” I said as she just went to the backboard of the ship or whatever the back part is called and cried.
“Why do you want to help me you don’t even know me?” she asked through the tears.
“Because nobody should live as a slave.” I said noticing a collar on her how I didn't notice it earlier was beyond me. “If you want I can remove the collar.” I said as she backed up against the wall.
“No no no no no, its cursed, if anybody other than the original person that put the collar on me tries to remove it the person will die.” She said as I grabbed the collar and with a smirk I pulled it off.
“See nothing happ- GAH” I shouted as I fell to the floor screaming in pain. After a good five minutes I died.
“No no no no please wake up you saved my life you can’t die on-” she was cut off by me screaming and getting up from the floor.
“That hurt!” I shouted as she looked at me before hugging me.
“Thank you! Thank you!” She said as she jumped on me and stuck her tongue down my throat, I jumped pulling her back. “What was I too rough?” She asked.
“No, I was just wondering why you kissed me?” I asked.
“You saved me from slavery, I am your’s forever now.” she said.
“I just freed you from slavery so now you're my slave?” I asked “That doesn’t make any sense.” I said.
“What no!” she said “It's an honor thing my former master once told me, well he was mocking me about it, that griffons have a special honor thing that when they find their ideal mates they bond forever.” she explained.
“Okay before we do anything else I need to do something.” I said.
“What?” Greta asked as I leaned over the side of the and started vomiting my stomach out before I got back up “Are you okay?” She asked.
“I’m fine it's just something that's been building up since I killed that first minotaur.” I said.
“You’ve never killed before?” she asked.
“No.” I replied coldly. “Anyway we should check the cargo you said this was a slave ship right?” I asked.
“Yes why?” Greta asked.
“Because we may have a crew on our hands.” I said with a grin.
When we went down into the cargo hold we found a few of the ship's crew but they were quickly dealt with mostly after killing a few of them the rest surrendered and agreed to join my crew, as I went into the slave pens I saw some unicorn men, winged horse men, some griffons, some dog girls and even some minotaurs. “Alright everybody here I’m the new Captain of this ship and you have two options join my crew or get dropped off at the nearest port.” I said.
One of them simply asked. “And why should we follow you?”
“Simple I’m the guy that can remove your tracking collars and live.” I said as they all looked skeptical. “I'll prove it.” I said as I used the keys to open one of the cells and dragged one of the dog girls out into the open where everybody could see me remove the collar and scream in pain. “I never said it was painless.” I said as the dog girl jumped on me and started licking me.
“Me so happy.” she said between licks before Greta pulled her off me.
“Hey, he only has room for one mate.” Greta said.
“Thanks Greta.” I said as I got off the floor.
“In Diamond Dog tribe alpha have many mates” The dog girl said.
“I’m guessing some of you where used as sex slaves?” I guessed as the dog got out of Greta’s grasp and hugged my arm with her tail wagging. I turned to her and asked, “Could you let go I have to free more of you.” I said as I went to remove the collars from the rest of the slaves.
As an hour passed my crew was filled and I had a few more ‘mates’ as they called themselves out of the dog girls and some of the female griffons and we had a destination for those who wanted to simply head off to dry land. Vanhoover port.
The next few days were rough as my ‘mates’ wanted a piece of me in bed and keeping seven women happy was not an easy task with keeping a crew on task as well but I managed to get my crew to Vanhoover. “Okay Greta, I’m going to sell these spare guard armors we have for food money. You stay here and make sure the ship and the crew don’t venture off to far.” I said as I took two of the minotaurs to help carry the armors to the pawn shop.
“Okay sir.” She said as she trained using the throwing knives I gave her as I had a gun for range combat but anyway the walk to the shop was easy convincing the man behind the counter to take the golden armor wa sa little hard but we did get a decent amount for the armor and that was all that mattered, we took the gold coins back to the ship where there was a meek unicorn talking to Greta.
“Is there a problem?” I asked.
“Yes are you the owner of this ship?” The unicorn asked.
“Yes well it seems that your paperwork is missing for your ship I’m sure this is just a mistake but I’m going to have to ask you to come with me just to fill some paperwork.” The unicorn said as my two minotaur companions started to crack their knuckles.
“It’s okay I can handle this just return to the ship.” I said as they walked up the ship.
An hour later I returned to the ship with official paper work saying that the ship was mine so we could start on remodeling the ship from a slaver ship to an actual pirate ship. I gathered my crew to talk with them. “Okay crew we have a lot of golden coins what should we do with them?” I asked. Some of the responses were spend it on rum or women while others didn’t understand the question. “Okay what would help us in the long run?” I asked.
Again there responses where booze and women, but Greta figured out what I meant. “Upgrading the ship?” she asked.
I clapped my hands. “Yes that's what I was hoping you'd say.” I said as Greta smiled while the rest of the crew looked confused. “What?” I asked.
One of the minotaurs spoke up. “We wanted booze.” He said.
“Well if there is money left we can get booze.” I said as the rest of the crew cheered.
The rest of the month was spent in the port waiting for the ship to be finished as we finally set sail and do some pirating. “Okay judging from that ships flag that is a Minos empire ship which means we can attack it as it probably has treasure on it.” I said looking through a telescope. I jumped down from my post on the lookout. “Ready the crew.” I said to Greta as the men readied the weapons we took from those guards and the former crew of this ship. As our ship got close we faked an emergency to get close to the ship, as the crew of the opposing ship got on our ship we sprung our trap. “Hello, I’m assuming you're the captain of this fine vessel?” I asked, pointing the the ship we were robbing.
“I am, and I’m guessing your pirates.” The captain said “So what do you want pirate ?” He asked with venom in his voice
“Simple, to parlay you have two options the first and easiest is to surrender the loot your carrying then you will be sent on your merry little way, or the second and fun option is we kill you all and just take what we want.” I said.
“How about I take the third option where me and my crew kill you scum and-” His words were cut off by me blowing his head off.
“You heard him men! He chose the fun option, kill them all!” I ordered as my pirates ran across the boards separating my ship from there’s and met with them men for men. After the battle we counted the coins and found a treasure map. “Well this could prove interesting.” I said as we continued to inspect the ship.
More months passed as we looted from more of the Minos empire’s ships as well as some Equestrian ships we were making a killing though we did lose some men here and there... I’ve even been killed once or twice but we were making good money, we even found an island that was out of the way of the trade ships to make a pirate base. Though I heard the Minos emperor has placed a bounty on our heads. And from what I’ve seen my bounty is pretty high.
Meanwhile in the Minos Empire.
“Why haven't these pirates been found!?” The emperor demanded.
“I don’t know sire.” The lowly grunt said.
“I will not have my slave operations in the coastal regions be threatened by some lowly Pirates!” The emperor screamed.
“Don’t worry sir we have the entire Navy looking for them we’ll catch them soon.” the grunt said.
“Good this little nuisance will not threaten my empire.” The emperor said.
“And that's how the Minos empire fell to a group of pirates.” the tour guide finished as I walked out of the museum and towards the canterlot palace.
“Halt!” The guard ordered.
“It's alright I’m expected.” I said
“And why should I believe that a drunk bum like you is expected?” The guard asked as I rolled my eyes and pulled out the card saying that I was expected. “I’m sorry sir, right this way.” The guard said as we entered the castle.

Chapter 3 Meeting Celestia and Twilight
I sat on a train heading to Ponyville I sat looking out the window and hoping that this trip was worth it. “Now arriving at Ponyville station” The voice over the intercom said as I got up and grabbed my bags.
As I got off the train I looked for any sign of this Princess Twilight and there was this pink girl standing with a sigh saying ‘Kain Black heart’ so I guessed that was the princess or at least somebody working for her “Hello you must be kain black heart I’m Pinkie Pie and I’m here to welcome you. Welcome welcome welcome a fine welcome to- .” she was cut off by my finger going on her mouth.
“Look sweetheart I’ve hand a hard night of drinking my head doesn't need this” I said as her hair deflated slightly before popping back into full bounce
“Okay” she said as she bounced toward the large crystal palace.
“I take it that's where the Princess is” I said taking a guess.
“Yep yep yep” Pinkie said.
As we entered the palace I was greeted by a lavender girl “I take it your Twilight” I took a guess. As she nodded.
“Nice to meet you King black heart” she said
“Please call me captain black heart” I said
“Captain?” Twilight asked.
“You didn’t know I was the captain of the Ventum the fastest airship in the world.”
“You were a captain of a ship? How did you become a King?” she asked
“How did you become a princess?” I asked
“I achieved an ancient spell that turned me into an alicorn.” Twilight said
“Well I killed a minotaur emperor and got his kingdom” I retorted “so all in all I have the better origin” I teased.
“You were the one to end the dynasty of Minos the ‘great’?” she asked
“I wouldn't call him great. Bastard was a slaver and a tyrant.” I said while the way I ruled my kingdom was basicly vegas if it was ruled by the boss from saints row.
“Well that is true he did wage war on pirates”
“I know he was waging war on me... do you know anything about me other then my name?” I asked.
She took a few steps back speaking to herself before going “No I thought you were...” she was cut off.
“Like what?” I asked as I went uncomfortably close to her face. “Some Kind of pompous canterlot asshole who has never heard of hard work in there life?”
“N-no” she said looking like she was on the verge of tears.
As I was about to lay off her a small dragon came out wearing an apron “And who’s this little guy” I asked.
“I’m Spike, Twilight’s number 1 assistant.” he said.
“And how much you get payed?” I asked having a weird feeling in my bones.
“Why do you want to know that?” Twilight asked.
“Look sprinkel” I said.
“Sparkle” Twilight corrected.
“Sparkle I want to know because the last time I saw somebody, and don’t correct me by saying somepony, his age working for somebody it was as a slave and you know what I did to them?” I asked as she took a step back. I pulled out my pistol and asked again “How much does he get paid?”
“25 bits he gets paid 25 bits a week for his chores” she said crying.
“Good to know” I said putting my gun away. “I wasn’t actually going to hurt you.” I said as she calmed down.
“Hey what are you doing?” A voice said as I was kicked by a rainbow lesbian.
“GAH” I said as I was kicked.
“RaInbow stop!” Twilight shouted.
“What he had something to your head” the rainbow lesbian said.
“He’s also the king of a country” She said.
“What?” the rainbow lesbian said.
“Yes I’m a king of the mino’s Island” i said “In other words you’ve just attacked a king...looks like you won't be joining...oh what's that group of flyers wonder colts or something?” I asked
“Wonderbolts?” Twilight asked
“Yeah them looks like you won’t be joining the wonderbolts...unless they take-” I was cut off by Rainbow jumping to my feet and begging.
“Please don’t tell the wonderbolts I’m sorry” she said begging at my feet
“Wow, and I was saying that as a joke” I said “ I’ve had worst first introductions, you should have been there when i first met Celestia long story short I shot, cut, blew up and stabbed her” I said as Twilight and rainbow looked horrified.
“You what?”
“Okay to give you the full story” I said as I began to tell her about my first encounter with Celestia
[hr[
Three years have passed since I arrived in this strange furry world, I had gained momentum as I became more powerful, where I had started with one crew and one ship I now had seven ships each with a captain and full crew. I also had gained abilities from placing the Eye of Orisa in my skull, now I stood on Canterlot mountain looking for a mercenary group that could help me in this next raid on a slaver island. But as I looked at the route behind me a guard came up to me “Stop right there.” The guard said
“Is there a problem officer?” I asked
“Yes you’re Kain Black Heart, Pirate.” the guard said.
’Aw crap let's hope I can bullshit my way out of this.’ I thought to myself as I said. “No you're mistaken my name is David” I said before trying to leave.
“I won’t buy your lies Pirate.” he said grabbing my arm.
“I wouldn’t do that if I were you.” I said as my eye glowed.
“You're coming with me.” He said as I punched him and started to run.
“Oh no you don’t.” He said as he took to the sky’s.
‘Aw crap baskets.’ I thought as I ran into a group of people and readied my flintlock pistol before the crowd disperses “Come and get me bastard” I shouted as I was done running, He dove at me grabbing me and making me drop my gun I retort by grabbing the sword on his side and stabbing him with it repeatedly. As we fell to the ground he let me go and fell into a house, I landed next to my gun which I picked up as I got up off the ground “ANYBODY ELSE TRYING TO TAKE MY BOUNTY?” I called out as everybody backed away “That's what I thou-” I was cut off.
“Murderer!” Somebody shouted.
“Oh great and who has the ball to fight?” I asked and saw this white winged unicorn in golden armor. “Great and who are you?” I asked
“I’m am Princess Celestia Ruler of this kingdom and the one who will bring down pirates like you” she said.
“Oh by the way Orisa was wondering what happened to Luna” I said as she got all red in the face.
“YOU DARE DEFILE MY GUARDIANS TOMB!” she screamed as I just shot her in the head.
“There that was easy” I said as I began to walk away.
“You're going to need to try header then that pirate” Celestia said as I turned around to see her get up from having a bullet to the head.
“So you're like me huh?” I said as she cut me off.
“I’M NOTHING LIKE YOU” she screamed as she cut me half with her sword. “And that's how you deal with a pirate” she said as she started to leave.
“Not yet” I struggled to say as my two halfs started to reattach
“How?” she asked.
“Like I said you're just like me, Immortal.” I said as I charged my sword “Well I was saving this for a better time but ‘FINAL WAVE’” I shout as I slash the air creating a energy wave in the air then shooting at it with a charged bullet. Celestia took full blunt of the attack as she got engulfed in an explosion.
“Well that settles that you're not walking away from that” I said walking away from the smoke but before i could take a few steps I heard footsteps running behind me and before I could turn I was impaled by a horn through my gut. “GAH!” I quickly grabbed grabbed the top of her head and pulled of my gut from her head.
“Princess let us help you.” a guard said.
“No get the ponies out of here” she said as I fired a shot into her horn cracking it before I pulled out my sword and sliced through the weakened bone. I grabbed the broken bone and stabbed her in the gut.
“And stay down” I said as she kneeled to the ground. I quickly tried to leave as I did want to get to my business here but as I started to leave
“What's wrong Pirate afraid of a little fight?” She asked as I just looked at her.
“Lady you have your horn in your gut. GO SEE A DOCTOR!” I shout at her.
“I'll go see the doctor when you're behind bars.” She said as she grabs her sword.
A few hours passed as we took attack after attack, blow for blow till we were both at our knees tired. “Are you tired yet” I asked barely standing up.
“I will never bow to you” she said as a guard came up to her.
“Princess...” the guard said.
“Take him” Celestia said.
“No.” I said getting un as a blue light enveloped my right eye and I disappeared.
“What?” Celestia asked as she saw me on a nearby roof, “After him!” The princess ordered asI began to run away from the guards.
As I made it far enough I stole some clothing off a clothesline and hid my sword and hid in a crowd waiting for the guards to pass. “Where did he go?” a guard asked as I made it to the home of the Iron bull the head of mercenary group I was planning on hiring.
“Yes?” the Iron bull said whom I was surprised was actually a zebra.
“I believe I had an appointment, sorry I'm late.” I said
“Ah captain Black heart yes come in.” The Iron bull said
“Thanks oh and if any guards come by tell them I’m not here.” I said as I entered his home.
“Why would guard's be after you?” The Iron bull asked.
“Long story, turns out the princess is hard to kill.” I said.
“Why would you try to kill the princess, is that what you're hiring me for?” The iron bull asks worried.
“No I need renforcement going after a plantation full of slaves.” I said.
“Ah, so why did you try to kill the princess?” The Iron bull asked
“Because she was trying to kill or at least capture me for my bounty” I paused for a second “and I may have raided some of her ships” I said as he looked at me “What? I’m a pirate. Sue me.” I said
“And that's how my first meeting with Celestia took place” I said as they looked horrified.
“Why did you stab her with her own her own horn?” Rainbow asked
“Because I shot it off and had no idea what to do with it” I said
“Does anybody want any spinach puff?” Spike asked not having any clue what we were saying.
“Sure I’d love some” I said grabbing one as they looked at him
“What?” he asked
“Its nothing I was just telling them how I first met Celestia”
“Oh I’d love to-” he was cut off by Twilight giving him a look “or maybe not.” he said as I ate some of the spinach puffs
“These are good” I said stuffing my face.
As the day turned to Night I bid farewell to Princess Twilight and her friend I headed for the train station where I waited for the train to take me to manehattan where I could then board my ship to head back to my island kingdom. As I sat there my thoughts drifted towards the day where I lead 300 ships against the capital of the Minos empire.
It was a cold day as three hundred ships both mine and various mercenary companies floated in the sea near the capital waiting for my orders to engage the city. I stood on the deck of the city determined to end this slavers empire. I took a deep breath as the other captains and mercenaries commanders went over the battle plan one last time.
“Alright here’s the plan.” I said pointing at the map “Alpha will launch here.” I said pointing to the left ports on the map. “while beta will launch here.” I said pointing to the right ports. “While that is happening the remaining men will launch an attack here.” I said pointing to their imperial halls.
As the captains and commanders nodded I sent them back to their ships while the rest of us faked being tourist and merchants and landed in the northern ports. A few hours passed as I stood with my men ready to engage, Gretta looked at me and I nodded before pointing my pistol in the air and casting a flair spell.
Once the flare was up in the air, the men scattered around the city dropped the act and began assaulting guards left and right. It would be tame to say that the blood flowing in the streets was akin to a broken open wine kege. It was worse. Slaves and civilians alike were being caught in the crossfires, largely from the guard’s shooting as we tried to avoid them.
Waves of guards kept coming from barracks and from the castle itself. We need to get up there fast. Using Final Wave, I hacked through them with ease, creating a blood soaked pathway leading to the castle, ever closer with each Final Wave used. To my surprise, some minotaur was holding a cannon over his shoulder and he fired, the cannonball flying through my chest. I retorted by firing my pistol at his head, the cannon falling on him made sure he was dead.
The wound quickly healed and I started my way back to the castle. As I turned one last corner, now reaching outside the castle gates, I was stunned to see three golems, with slaves somehow stuck in them. Basterds. I thought, trying to find a way to kill the golems without killing the slaves.
There was no visible weak points, so it’s powersource must either be inside it, or is being hidden by one of the slaves on it. Crap, if it were night it might be easier to tell where, those things tend to glow. “Captain!” I saw Gretta run up, tossing me a pickaxe. “We can dig them out.”
“Thank you.” I said, grabbing the pick and running up at the golems.
The first one I managed to strike it’s leg, breaking it off and freeing a slave that was stuck in it. With a leg missing the golem fell over, thankfully not on any of the slaves in it, and other crew members came up quickly, using other picks to mine out the slaves. “We got this, you go kill the emperor!” On of the men said as I nodded.
With a handy keg of gunpowder… procured from a blacksmith nearby, we blasted open the gate. As I charged through the gate I was surprised to find no guard… but the emperor himself, standing center of the courtyard, large thick armor adorned him with a sword as tall as he is at his side. “So, you are the immortal Kain?” He asked.
“And I take it you’re Emperor Minos” I said.
“Yes. I have heard quite a lot about you, how you appeared in this same city long ago, saved a little birdy then stole a slave ship, not long after, creating a strong pirate army. I have to give you credit, you are resourceful.”
“I’d honestly take that as a compliment if it came from somebody else but let me guess somebody tipped you off, let me ask who was it one of my merc’s or a pirate?” I asked.
“I believe you know who my little song bird is well. Gretta, that’s what you call her, right?” I looked to my side, seeing Gretta giltay walk over to the emperor. “It’s amazing really, those… special words still work after all this time, unicorns really know their stuff.”
“You son of a BITCH!” I said firing upon him but my shots just bounced off him.”YOU TAKE MY BIRD AND USE HER AGAINST ME! I’M SENDING YOU TO HELL” I shouted casting Final wave on him.
“Hehehe HAHAHA! You can’t touch me in this armor it’s made of adamantine the metal of the gods nothing can penetrate it not even your little explosion magic.” he proclaimed as he walked closer to Gretta who was just looking at the floor crying. “Song bird, sing me a song.”
Gretta instantly stood up, still crying. “Y-yes master.”
“Sing the song of death to pirates.”
Gretta was crying, but nodded, picking up two swords and began mercilessly hacking at our comrades. “Amazing really, if she only had the lack of heart she would have been my personal servant.” Minos said. “So much work went into her, such a waste we couldn’t get her to break her emotions.”
As she tried to cut me I had an Idea “Songbird Sing the song of life” i said as she stopped and returned to normal.
“Captain i’m sorry.” she cried as I hugged her. “Run as far as you can.” I ordered as Minos spoke.
“Songbird, sing me the song of hunger.” At that, Gretta dug her beak deep into my throat, tearing it out as she began to devour me. “We can do this all day Kain, all at her expense.”
As she kept biting down on me I managed to push her off long enough to have my through regrow “I’m sorry Gretta.” I said as my sword charged up Final wave was cast on her killing her as tears went down my eyes “But you know what I do to traitors.” I said as my gaze turned to King Minos. “I’m going to kill you then make history remember you as the monster you are.” I said as he laughed.
“What type of magic do you think was used on her?” Minos asked.
Before he could Answer my eye glowed red and I ran to punch him denting his armor but breaking my arm in the process. “I can do this all day” I said jumping and denting his helmet breaking my leg.
Minos just smiled at me. “Songbird, sing me the song of silence.” I turned around, seeing Gretta’s mangled body stand, dark magic oozing out of her. “Even after death her commands still move her. “Songbird, sing me the song of Kain’s imprisonment.”
“You monster!” I said cutting her arm off as it tried to grab me. My wounds not healing as fast as they were before due to the power flowing through them.
Gretta’s corpse charged at me, her still attached arm slicing one of mine up to my elbow from my wrist. “Songbird, sing me the song of… agony.” Gretta’s corpse somehow shot out a ball of darkness, striking me in the heart as my wounds were slowly trying to heal and expel the darkness infecting it. “You see Kain, your Gretta is one of thousands of slaves we made to serve til their bodies decay into dust. I’ll go down as a monster, but you’ll be known forever as the loser this day.”
I looked at Gretta thinking of what to do then it hit me “Songbird sing me the song of memories!” I shouted as she just stood there staring at me.
“Captain?” her voice said “whats going on?” she asked scared
“I need you to fly to as far as you can and as quickly as you can to canterlot tell them this is the curse of Minos!” I said as Minos tried to speak I fired another Final wave at him covering his voice as Gretta flue away.
Minos grunted. “Bloodhound. Here mutt.” He said as a diamond dog dug itself up from the ground. “Bloodhound, hunt down the songbird. The dinner bell is rung.” The diamond dog nodded as it quickly jumped over the castle walls, casing after Gretta. “Time we settle this ‘immortal’.”
“Lets.” i said sliding under him placing some short fused grenades at the tip of his feet and jumped on his back.I began to charge one last Final wave as he was distracted by the explosives “This is for everyone you’ve ever enslaved you mother F-” I was cut off by the grenades going off at his feet and I cast Final Wave up close shattering his helmet and shoulder guards. “Eat this you son of a-” I was cut off by him grabbing me and throwing me off.
“You think you’ve won you little whelp I have hundreds of ships in my fleet and army on my island and they are all loyal to me, there is no disgrace in just dying now you will atleast have come far enough to tell your tale in tartarus. He said as he began to cast a spell “CHAINS OF-” he was cut off by Gretta returning.
“Songbird sing me the-” again he was cut off by the diamond dog jumping on him trying to catch gretta.
“Eat this you son of a bitch. Final Wave!” i shouted hitting both him and the dog. Killing them both.
“It's over captain” Gretta said.
“No it's not you have one more thing to do.”
“What?” she asked
“Songbird…. sing me the song of heaven” I said as she looked confused
“What’s that?” she said
“It means send your spirit to heaven with all the other angles...I’m sorry I had to kill you.” I said as she went in for a kiss... “sorry but no final kiss you're still dead sorry there are lines I don’t cross.” I said as her spirit disappeared from her body and her corpse fell to the ground.
As I looked at the emperor guards started to come in “My lord we have secured the...” the head captain stopped to look at me the dead emperor and the other two corpses “did you kill the emperor?” he asked.
“Yes and i’m going to kill you too.” i said as they dropped their weapons and fell to their knees.
“We serve you King.”
“King i thought the poisson was emperor?” I asked
“Well he claimed to be an emperor but he was really just a king said he was planning for a bigger thing.” the head guard said as I realised that i was now a king.
“Give me one moment.” I said pulling my pistol out and firing a green flair signaling the ships to retreat.
“What was that my king?”
“A flair to signal my force’s to retreat I don’t want them to loot my stuff.” i said as I walked to my throne before sitting “Did we take any prisoners?” I asked
“No sir the former King was clear kill the pirates.” the head guard said
“So I have to ask why are you suddenly loyal to me?” I asked
“Because the last one was a tyrant that we could do nothing about.”
“And how do you know i’ll be any different?”
“You attack slaver ships the most of the country hates that and believe its is an outdated practice.” the head guard said
“Anyway is there any ships left?” I asked
“ The capital ship Canterlot Burning is coming in a few days.” the guard captain said
“Good i’ll pay my friends a visit.” I said
I got of my boat and onto my island where I was met by this woman with snow white hair and some brat with a large… key sword thing dressed in a red shirt with black pants. His hair was red, but what caught my eye were his eyes. They were red.
I motioned to my guards and they surrounded him “the first Human to find me and it's a ventral.” I said “lock him up.” I said to my guards “the woman in the prisoners sweet.”
“Wait, what?” He said, looking around him as the guards were getting closer. “... Ah crap…”
“I have rules to this island boy no slavers and what i remember about your family is your a family of slavers.” but before he was dragged away he pulled out his key sword and stabbed me in the gut cutting me in half. As I bleed out for the who knows how many times I saw the kid’s eyes turn demonic, the whites going black and the pupils changing to be like cats.
Author's Note
Want to know who and what the Ventrals are read this story which I am crossing over with for the last chapter...
As Zeke started raging the good king who had started all this began to reform his body “Ugg what happened?” he asked.
It was at that moment Unum side kicked his head into the side of his ship. “You idiot! What are you?!” SHe yelled, grabbing him by the scruff of his shirt. “Zeke never let’s his Keyblade draw blood, so what are you that it would have sliced you?”
“Immortal.” He said as she snapped his neck. “Ow why did you snap my neck?” he asked having his neck return to normal.
“No wonder. Anything that can heal at the rate of an ‘immortal’ would have tipped off his Keyblade, no reason to hold back… but now Zeke’s involuntarily drawn blood… he’s gone into his Killing mood because of your stupidity!”
“Stupidity, guys a Ventral and i’ve heard stories about this Killing mood didn’t think one was still a virgin.” he joked.
“Yet he had saved a whole world from complete genocide, managed to bring back a long lost city, and even brought back over 80% of the world's lost population! You tell me if you hold a matchstick to him?”
“Oh great Ventral jesus. Just what i need, anyway lady I freed a whole group of slaves took down a slaver nation and became the most powerful military nation on the planet all in 300 years do you think i care what you think of me?” he asked
“If you two are done talking now.” Zeke spoke, his voice sounding like echo’s of hundreds of people speaking at once. “I believe it’s time to see just what this body can do.”
“Great he’s going to slaughter my people...this is why i had him sent to the prison so this wouldn’t happen.”
“If you would TALK this wouldn’t have happened!” Unum smashed his head into the ground, summoning her two Keyblades. “Zeke…”
“What do you think I was trying to you dumb bitch.” he said as she stomped on his head
“Unless you want me to toss you into the sun and watch you burn and try to come back from that, shut up and try to keep… something isn’t right,”
“Yeah why aren't my men firing on him This is the whole reason i came up with the monster law.” Kain said.
“Heh, arrogant yet you call yourself a king?” Zeke spoke to Kain. “I believe the woman who is married to my host is asking why I’m not slaughtering everything yet.”
“Oh well can you get off me now?” He asked. Unum stepped off Kain, kicking him once before he got up. ”Thanks now...” he motioned to the guards “get everything on this guy I want the whole fleet trying to take him down.” he whispered as the guard ran off.
“I think you’ll find something far worse I have in store for you, but sadly, that must wait. As much as I’d like to devour you immortal, I’ll let your nightmares handle this.” Zeke snapped his fingered, red portals opening up as humanoid creatures covered in blood began falling out… including one armored Minotaur. “My, my, what a death count, your people killed by the ones you have killed. How rich.”
“God damn it not her.” Kain said as a griffon stabbed him. “Anybody but my beloved.” he said with tears in his eyes “I sent her to heaven why did you bring her back?” he asked as Unum got the griffon off him.
Zeke began laughing, the echo of it sending chills down Kain and Unum. “Much like you immortal, they have sins on their backs. If anything liberating them from hell and purgatory I saved her more than you did.”
A voice just shouted FINAL WAVE as Zeke was hit by an explosion. “NOBODY MESSES WITH THE WOMAN I LOVE AND LIVES!” he shouted “YOU Unum was it take care of the armored minotaur i’ll handle the rest.” he said as his eye glowed red.
When the smoke cleared, Zeke was still standing, chuckling. “Is that all you can muster immortal? How pathetic. Perhaps you aren’t worth playing with afterall.” Zeke snapped his fingers as Kain was engulfed in black fire, turning to ash in seconds. “Wonder if he’ll still come back?”
Unum made quick work of the minotaur, now crossing her keyblades at Zeke’s neck. “Please Zeke, snap out of it.” SHe cried.
Zeke chuckled. “For too long my blood was activated in a world without magic, now that it has I can finally claim this body as mine. The one you knew as Zeke is lost in my hive mind girl, only Psychopath is here.” Psychopath, in one shove, sent Unum flying through the city buildings. “Ih, and be glad I removed the X-blade’s chains from you with that, consider it my one act of mercy.”
“EAT THIS YOU SON OF A-” a naked Kain said jumping and hitting Zeke in the back of the head.
“Oh, the immortal lives?” Psychopath said, grabbing Kain by the wrist.
“You honestly think i wouldn’t plan for being totally destroyed?” Kain said as he kicked Zeke in the face.
Psychopath responded by biting off Kain’s foot, and swallowing it. “Immortal blood… not like the other blood of gods, but just enough.” Psychopath then bit off his own finger… only for it to regrow in seconds. “Amazing what blood can teach you. Also.” Psychopath flinched Kain in the head. “Final Wave.” With that, Kain was blasted away with a pin point Final Wave.
“Hey Unum can you hold him still I may have a plan.” Kain said as she covered her eyes.
“Don’t bother.” Unum and Kain turned around, seeing Core and his reflections, save for Yellow, behind them. “Finally, get the device ready Ebony.”
“Time for my solo” Ebody said pulling out a trumpet.”
Unum grabbed Kain by the arm. “Don’t trust these people Kain, as much as you think Zeke’s family is bad… they are worse.”
“So what's their story?”
“To put it short, they kill who gets in their way, trick whoever they want to, kill off whole dimensions out of boredom… and want everything to die, just like the thing possessing Zeke does. All because purple there lost his wife, he’s the original, the others are just adopted copies.”
“Great Super ventrals... wait what?” He asked turned to Core. “Is that true you're doing all this because you lost your wife?” he asked.
Core responded by grabbing a nearby sword and throwing it into Kain’s head. “Stay out of this runt, and Unum, relax, we’re not here to kill you this day.” With that, the Cores ran after Zeke/Psychopath.
“That is the stupidest reason to turn evil I have ever heard seriously I had to kill the woman i loved and you don’t see me trying to remove everything from reality.” Kain said
“He’s been in darkness to long, whatever he had planned originally before becoming this has long since been twisted.” Unum said.
“Alright Men keep those guys off the raging Ventral I have a plan, Unum, get Zeke ,that was his name right?”
“Yeah.”
“I may have a way to end this and steal victory from those guys.””
“Alright, but.” Unum held a Keyblade to Kain’s neck. “If Zeke dies from this, I will personally make sure you never come back from your next death.”
“Don’t worry he’ll be fine.” Kain said mumbling something under his breath. “Just make sure that he stands still long enough for me to do my thing.” Kain said
“Fine.” Unum said, taking a grand leap over to Zeke, who crossed her keyblades with a now monotone X-blade.
“Heh, guess he didn’t like me.”
“Let's hope this works.” Kain said taking a deep breath “CHAINS OF TARTARUS!” he shouted as chains began to appear under Zeke tieing him up and dragging him down.
“Oh, how neat.”
“Ebony, do it now!” Core yelled as Ebony jumped on top on Psychopath, blowing the horn as blood began trailing out of Zeke and into the horn.
“Lets get that power out ” Ebony said playing his horn.
“Well if this isn’t interesting!” Psychopath yelled as his eyes returned to Zeke’s normal ones.
“Follow him Ebony and Blue we can still make use of him.” Core ordered as they and Zeke fell into the ground.
“Good it worked.” Kain said
Unum grabbed Kain, slamming him into the ground. “WHERE IS MY HUSBAND YOU BASTARD!”
“Tartarus, It was the only place I could send him he wouldn’t be able to harm anyone.” Kain said.
“You are going to help me find him!”
“If that last word was any indication he should be able to get out himself. Tartarus doesn't hold pure hearted people for long.”
She stomped on him, making a crater around them. “Two of Core’s lackeys are with him, if we don’t find him soon they’ll take him!”
“Yeah but they're evil they can’t escape Tartarus unless they fight their way out.” He said falling unconscious.
“They’ve killed off whole dimensions single handedly! You think whatever is in there can hold them?!”
“Mam he’s asleep.” the guard captain said “Chains take too much out of him”
Unum picked up Kain, throwing him far off into the ocean. “Useless bastard!”
“Please don’t insult our king mam.” she gave him a look. “He does his best for our people before him was a tyrant that used dark magic to turn slaves into...well you don’t want to know point is he was a monster and Kain freed us we owe him everything.”
“I’m older than most of the stars in the sky, the blood on my hands runs deeper than the core of the largest world… Zeke had every right to kill me when that darkness was ripped from me… he showed me mercy, gave me a home and a family… how do I explain to the kids he’s gone… how long will he be gone? Will the infants grow up never knowing him?” Unum broke down crying.
“I’m sorry mam, I truly am.” he said before turning to a few fishermen. “First person to bring me the king gets a 500 bit prize.” he said as the fishermen left the docks and went out to fish them.
In Tartarus
“These beasts are too easy.” Blue said, hacking a lich in half with ice. “Pain DTD’s don’t work in this part of it.”
“Yeah.” Ebony said, carrying Zeke’s unconscious body. “This was a grand victory for us this day.”
As they were speaking a demon arose behind them “Hello meals.” the demon said.
“Blue take care of this bitch.” Ebony said
“Fine I summon Lord of D in attack mode and activate flute of summoning Dragons special summoning two Blue eyes white dragons.” Blue said as two dragons appeared behind him “Blue eyes destroy this demon burst stream attack” he ordered as white light emerged from the dragons mouths. There now let's find the exit and have master core reward us.” he said
“Lets” he said summoning a few rangers to defend them.
Back in the Minos kingdom Kain was brought back to shore “what I miss?” he asked as Unum grabbed him again “Starting to think you don’’t like me.” he said.
“Because of you my husband is missing and our kids, if we don’t find him soon, my never know about him other than from stories.”
“He should have been back by now.” kain said as she dropped him. “Listen I know this is the last thing you want to hear after all i’ve done but let me help you it’s my fault any of this started and I’ll be damned if I let what I’m going to assume is a good man’s kids lose their father.” Kain said as he turned to a guard. “Get me my traveling clothing and let the council know I’ll be gone for a bit longer.” Kain said.
“Yes sir.” the head guard said.
After Kain got his gear Unum opened a DTL and tossed him in, when Kain saw Daybreak… he was speechless. “This is what Zeke made possible.” Unum said, picking him up.
“I’m sure if he hadn’t attacked me we might have gotten along.” Kain said.
“I’m sure if your first instinct wasn’t to arrest us you would have.”
“Well red eyes normally mean trouble My father barely got out of New time square when a Ventral killing mood hit.” Kain said. “Were not going to be able to do this alone you know.” he said
“Feeling weak?” Unum teased as she headed towards the castle.
“Well it's not that it's just my strongest attack did nothing and I wasn’t able to get angry enough to active the... I completely forgot about the dragon's blood.” Kain said confusing Unum
“I’m not even gonna ask, but you are explaining to the rest of Zeke’s wives and kids why he’s gone, alright?”
“If they are as nice as you i’m just going to give you this.” he said handing her his severed hand. “Don’t lose it.”
“First off… the heck? Secondly, coward much?”
“I just cut off my hand and you think am a coward? Anyway it’s a life line”
“You seem afraid of fifteen women. Sixteen including myself.”
“Whom I’ve never... wait sixteen, wimp, try fifty at once” he said
“Don’t tempt Rune, she will follow though with that, and once you’ve read through her black book, you tend to have kinky nightmares.”
“I...not afraid it's just well he got lucky is all sixteen women who love him and i had to kill the only person I ever loved. Just doesn't seem fair” Kain said
“I believe they say ‘the price of immortality is eternal suffering’ for a reason.”
“I’ve never heard that. Anyway let's meet these wi...Celestia?” He asked
“Reflection dummy.” Unu said, smacking Kain upside the head.
“Is she as unkillable here as in my world?” Kain asked
“Unlikillble?” Celestia asked. “Uh, Unum, where’s Zeke and who’s this?”
“*Sigh* Long story short I messed up and Zeke is gone because of me and..” before he could continue Celestia slapped him “not the worst thing you've ever done to me...”
“The babies are sleeping.” Celestia mumbled.
“Fine gatter all the wives and I’ll tell you what happened.” Kain said. It didn’t take long for the other wives to gather. Kain was… surprised, he knew most of them, though the goat lady threw him off. “Alright i’m giving you the short version so you can get your hate out right away Basically I was hasty in my judgment Zeke killed me , turned evil I sent him to tartarus and he hasn't come back yet so were mounting a rescue operation to save him.”Kain said as he took a deep breath and closed his eyes ready for the worst.
To his surprise, nothing happened. As he opened his eyes he saw the wives just looking mournful. Celestia eventually stood up, left, but came back quickly with a little unicorn foal. “Promise them, not us, that you’ll bring Zeke back.” Celestia said, holding her son Sunlight in front of Kain’s face. “After all, they’ll suffer the most if you fail.”
“Alright I promise now get that baby out of my face your just taungting me with what I can’t have.” he said.
Celestia held Sunlight in her arms as she went and took her seat. “So, who will be aiding you in this?”
“Maybe some of Zeke’s allies?” Unum suggested.
“That could work...how do we get to them?” Kain asked as Unum snapped her fingers.
On que Eclipse comes through a DTL “Hey Unum, where’s Zeke, I need to show him something.” He says casually.
“Is that horse talking?” Kain asked.
“God damn it...Still have to work out the kinks on the automatic part of that spell apparently. Stupid authors not wanting me to have that spell…” He says before lighting his horn and turning into a brown haired, shorter and leaner version of Josh. “Here we go.”
“Ah okay not questioning it basicly Zekes gone and we need to save him.” Kain said
“Sigh. Fine but my Luna and Fluttershy are going to kill me when I get back.” Eclipse said returning to pony form. “So, how did he get captured?”
“He killed me went on a blood rage so I sent him to tartarus to calm down before he destroyed my island and its people.” Kain said.
Eclipse narrowed his red eye at Kain. “What the fuck did you do?”
“Nothing I just wanted to talk to him in a private place saw he was a ventral and he killed me.”
“Sorry, but I know my cousin. He wouldn’t kill unless provoked, and even then he would at most break a bone.”
“He tried to arrest us and since this guy is ‘immortal’ the X-blade felt off about him and likely took over a bit to hit him. When blood and not darkness came out that’s when Zeke entered his Killing mood and… turned into a Psychopath. Core and his others did something that took it away, but they followed him into Tartarus.” Unum explained.
“He should have escaped by the time I came too.” Kain added.
Eclipse paces back and forward. “Not good not good...calm down Eclipse, they want him alive. You are not losing more family.” Eclipse took a breath before looking back at Kain. “How long ago was this.”
“Twenty minutes.” He said casually “He also took some of my blood so he should be harder to kill.”
“And why are you not in complete agony right now Unum?”
“The Psychopath that took him over said something about breaking the X-blades chains that linked us. I’m not sure why it would do that though?”
“Possibly because it makes you a threat...Easier to track him by following the trail of pain.” Eclipse said, going full blown strategist mode. “Who else will be joining us?”
“Other then me, you and Unum no clue not from around here spent three hundred years on my own world.” Kain said “Oh Kain black-heart by the way” he said extending his hand before retracting it.
“And I though I spent the longest time on my world.” Eclipse says “Name’s Eclipse Sparkle, or Eclipse Ventral, whichever you prefer, now back to the mission. That gives us four so far if we include Wolf…”
“God damn it are all of you going to be ventrals?” He asked
“Do you want me to drop you in the center of the planet?” Unum threatened. “You’ll take a while to dig yourself out.”
“No mam I just don’t like Ventrals, one nearly killed my father” Kain said
“Don’t blame the few for the acts of the greater.”
“Anyways!” Eclipse says, snapping them out of it. “Yes I am a Ventral, no I was not raised by them. Now, before you all freak out I need to show you our fourth companion Wolf.” He said before another balverine looking person comes out of Eclipse.
“God damn it, what the hell Eclipse?!” The figure yells at the pony.
“Sorry Wolf, but they need to see you so they don’t try and kill my darkness.” Eclipse says with a shrug.
“Anyway who else are we adding to the team?” Kain asked.
“We can try to get the Foretellers, Ben, John, and Huxley, though I’m still iffy on Huxley.” Unum said.
“Two flaws. The more time we spend not getting Zeke, the worse this could get. The second flaw is they may have their own problems right now. Also, I could try and summon Cript, but unless Zeke is currently full Psychopath, He can’t directly help.”
“Well i say we bring this Huxley on board.” Kain said not telling why. ”Wait who’s Cript and why didn’t he help me when he did become full psycho?” Kain asked.
“Cript is… a god in a sense, but he can’t aid in certain events that are meant to happen.” Unum said. “Kinda like… he can only help from sidelines.”
“Unless it is a Psychopath. And he probably didn’t help you because he THOUGHT you had it handled. I can quickly go to my reflection , grab a letter and have him here. If he can help.” Eclipse said.
“Well that could work Unum.” Kain said as she gave him a bad look “You do whatever you want I’m not messing with you again.”
“You did kinda drive her husband to go mad. And unlocked the one thing that made him different from even me.”
“Not my fault I just wanted to talk in a place I know was safe for my people.” Kain said
“Are you three done?” The three looked at the doorway, seeing Cript. “So, that happened.”
“You’re not another...”Kain stopped when Unum made a fist with her hand “Nevermind.” Kain said
“For your information… I’m Cript. First off, Kain, right? You’re a bitch, Unum, Eclipse… sorry… I can’t help here.”
“Hey she’s threatening to kill me permanently and can probably do it to so of course I’m scared of her.” Kain said.
“Not why you’re a bitch.” Cript says. “You just whine too much.”
“Hey I don’t whine”
“Then what’s that you just said called? Jokes aside… as I said, I can’t help.”
“Can you at least point us in the right direction?” Kain asked.
“Why can’t you, it's a Psychopath!” Eclipse said with anger ever present.
“As you know Eclipse, Zeke is a reflection of me, a rather new one to appear too. In some ways all reflection’s of people will share things… for mine, it’s becoming a Psychopath, or Insanity. This is unpreventable, but the outcome we can alter, though, Zeke has to be the one to not give back in. Core may have taken the Psychopath blood from Zeke, but that link to them is now forever stuck with him.”
“So pretty much what KH told me in my Mark of Mastery. We forge our own destiny, correct? And that is why you can’t help.”
“If Zeke falls back into it… then it’s my problem, but this time, I’m here, my other reflection’s it happened to them all at the same time. Still not sure exactly how I broke out from when those freaks took me over, but I might be able to teach it to Zeke by sharing memories. The key to it might be there.”
“So can you or can you not tell us what direction to go in...it’s not asking for much just a push in the right direction.” Kain asked.
“I can, but it will be dropping you right on top of them.”
“Bring it!” Wolf and Eclipse said at the same time, Oathkeeper and Oblivion floating beside them.
Cript snapped his fingers. In a blink the three were standing mere feet from Ebony and Blue Core.
“Oh hey, It’s’ the captain.” Blue said.
“They're here for Zeke. Rangers get them.” Ebony said as the Green Zyuranger, Dekamaster, Abarekiller all attacked the group.
“God damn it. Oblivion! Oath! Do your thing!” Eclipse shouted as they went to fight alone while Eclipse and Wolf pulled blades out of their hearts. They were made of Light, but pulsed with darkness. “Ready Wolf?”
“You’re the one who’s never ready Eclipse.” Wolf said as the two charged forwards.
Before they could fight a voice was heard shouting “FINAL WAVE!” destroying the rangers. “Gah how did you get the Gokaigers finishing move?” Ebony aksed “Blue summon some monsters.” he ordered as Two blue eyes white dragons appeared behind them.
“I activate pot of greed its effect allows me to draw to more cards.” he said drawing two cards “I active polymerisation fusing my blue eyes white dragon in my hand with the ones on the field summoning Blue eyes ultimate dragon.” he said as the dragons fused into one three headed dragon.
“My turn. Scan!” Eclipse said, looking at their Hp before the Blade started to pulse faster and faster. “Corrupted Light!” Eclipse shouted as he warp stepped to slice at the Dragon in time with Wolf and the two keyblades.
“Ha you activated my trap card, Mirror force it normally destroys all your monsters but in this case it sends the force you dealt with back at you.” Blue said as Eclipse and Wolf started to cry out in pain as the Ultimate dragon started to charge up an attack “Burst stream attack” Blue ordered as the two were helpless to move as Kain ran in pushing them away as he was blasted apart unable to recover. Not even a corpse remained.
“Kain!” Eclipse shouted as he stood back up, growling as he shook his head. “That’s it...I am done holding back any more!”
While Unum was getting ready to charge, something in her pocket felt off. She felt inside, pulling out Kain’s hand and dropped it as it started groping. “Oh… that’s what he meant…” She said as Kain grew himself from just his hand, though, he was naked.
“Great is my eye still blue” he asked as she realised his eyes were mismatched colors. “Anyway I there's my gun.” he said picking it up from the blast “Hey Eclipse could you cut off my hand please?” he asked as Eclipse tilted his head. Oblivion flew from fighting the dragon and cut a hand off of Kain. “Thanks buddy.” Kain said as Unum just looked at him.
“Not your buddy!” Eclipse growled as Wolf got up as well.
“Well screw you too.” Kain shouted “Saved your life and you won't even call me a buddy.” Kain said.
“Well sorry for being pissed off that my own attack was reflected back at me, when that is literally the only thing I have going for me!”
“Are they arguing...wait where’s Zeke?” Ebony asked as he saw Unum running off with her husband. “What how?”
“The old distraction trick. While you were focused on the sexiest man alive, Unum stole the guy from you.”
“But we were focused on you not david hasselhoff.” Blue said.
“Anyways...I’ve had enough of your stupid games! I don’t even like Yugioh! Magic the Gathering was the best card game and you can’t say otherwise!” Eclipse shouted
“You take that back! Be glad I didn’t bring my god cards or exodia.”Blue said.
“Eclipse is right, Yugioh does kinda suck compared to Magic.” Wolf said as he nodded sagely.
“Did...did we just agree on something other than a fight?” Eclipse asked shocked.
“Shut the hell up Eclipse.” Wolf responded.
While the battle was taking a rather random turn, Unum found an isolated area to put Zeke down. “Come on Zeke, wake up…” She said, shaking him.
Eclipse shouted “Stopga!” And froze the dragon as he charged for another attack alongside Wolf and the keyblades again.
“Awa the wrong pony froze my dragon. Ebony do something I have to wait a turn.” Blue said
“Fine here comes a kick ass solo.” he said summoning the five original gokaigers. ”Here go kill them.” They all nodded and ran towards the naked Kain who just shot them with his gun.
“I could use some help over here.” he said.
“Oh please, you can handle them!” Eclipse shouted as he, Wolf and the two keyblades all came down on the dragon.
“I don’t have my sw-” he was cut off by a five person final wave hitting him “Gah” he said as he got knocked out.
Unum kept shaking Zeke, finally he made a sound. “Ugh.” Zeke groaned, finally coming too. “Wha… where am I?”
“Oh thank god.” Unum said, hugging Zeke. “Almost thought we lost you.”
“Unum? Why… is everything so dark?”
Eclipse yelled as he and his companions cut off one of the dragon heads and shouted “Mega flare!” sending the blast to the other heads.
“Ha I activate monster reborn bringing the dragon back.” Blue said as the dragon returned to the battlefield.
“That is it!” EClipse yelled as he started to run at Blue, the whites of his eye slowly turning black.
“Negate attack” he said as Eclipes froze there unable to attack “Blue eyes white lightning attack.” Blue ordered as Ebony found the door.
“Blue over here.” He called out as Blue ran away towards the door.
“Reflectga!” Eclipse yelled as the blast is sent back at the dragon.
“Wh, what are you talking about Zeke, it’s dim, sure, but not pitch black?” Unum said, worried.
“I can’t see anything.”
Unum took a look at Zeke… his once red eyes now covered in a fog white liquid. “Y… your eyes… That legend!”
“What… oh… OH! So… I’m blind now… how?”
“They took the Psychopath Blood out of you.”
“Then… that blood is what was letting me see?”
Eclipse yelled as he tried to follow Blue to have to fight the other gokaigers. “Damn it! Curaga!” He shouted as he tried to heal Kain.
“What I miss?” he asked as Unum grabbed him “Alright what I do now?” he said knowing that she was going to kill him again.
“We get out of here, come on, Zeke’s over here.” She said, leading Kain to Zeke. “Congrats, you got him, but… without that blood, Zeke’s blind.”
“Unum.” Zeke started. “I didn’t give much fucks about losing my legs, my sight I actually will miss, but it’s a small price to pay.”
“Look I’m sorry I caused all this...I just wanted to talk to you and when I saw you were a Ventral I had to do what was good for my people...” Kain said
“FIrst off, bad word to start that sentence with, secondly, I’d have waited for the ‘assumed threat’ to speak, after all, it was your guards that took us to the docks to see you given they could tell we’re the same race.”
“Thats weird I never gave any orders for my guards to take me any humans. I thought I was the only human in that world...”
“Which is why they took us I guess. Two humans appear randomly, they probably thought you’d want to meet us.”
“That’s how I appeared so they may have thought you were with me...anyway I don’t know how I can make this up to you.” Kain said. “I have a debt to pay and I always pay my debts.”
“Well, for starters, are you in front of me?”
Kain took a few steps. ” I am now.”
Zeke pressed the button on one of his legs, the holsters tearing his jeans up but he quickly took out the pistol and shot Kain in the lover gut. “That was for the shit that went down. Man, now that the Killing Mood isn’t an issue, that felt kinda good…. In a morbid way.”
“I know right?” Eclipse said walking over, grumbling about not catching them.
“Okay you almost shot me in the dong...but anyway can one of you give me a ride home I’m in foreign land here with no money or pants.”
“After we take Zeke home first.” Unum said, helping Zeke up. “I think Twilight can find a way to help Zeke see things again, though, it might take a while.”
“I can wait.” Zeke said. “If this doesn’t give you girls an excuse to keep me in the bedroom, then you really trust me.” Zeke joked.
“Hey Zeke, well, you have a step up from dad and I, we are only half blind.” Eclipse said with a smirk.
“Har har.”
“Anyways, let's get out.” Eclipse said, trying to open a DTL to Zeke’s reflection. “Oh and I have to show...well, tell you something when we get back.”
“Is it a way to get more wives?” Kain asked “the man has sixteen i think that's enough and that's coming from a guy with over fifty lovers.”
“Why?” Zeke asks as they walk through, appearing in the castle. “I mean, sixteen I’m really good with, why need fifty?”
“Fifty?” Zeke froze as Rune’s voice caught his ears.
“Basically to fill the void of being incompatible with any of the races on the planet...trust me i’ve tried them all.” Kain said looking down at the floor.
“Oh dear...Zeke, need help running?” Eclipse said, also frozen from that voice.
“Unlike Kain, I’ll take it like a man.” Zeke said. “Rune, first off, I’m blind, so there’s that, second, please don’t… she’s gone already?”
“Yup.” Unum said. “Well… you really are Cript’s reflection if you’re getting more wives than.”
“Well I’ll just take that leave back home and hope none of you ever come back there again.” Kain said.
“Wait.” Zeke said. “Kain, you may have started this, but you do have some rather useful skills in navigation, and combat. The council could use someone like you.”
“How did you know about that?” Kain asked.
“From what I managed to hear and see from being under that things control, you did a lot and lived a long time. Managed to see that final wave thing… that was cool.”
“Well I would be honored...if that means your wife can’t kill me anymore.” he said as he looked at Unum as she gave him a mean look.
“If she has to, she’s save if for special occasions. But now that you’re in the council, well, paperwork and a speech first then you can join, here.” Zeke said, summoning a Keyblade and holding it out. “Just take it cause no idea where you are.”
“Does it have to be a speech I wrote or can I just steal one that i remember.” Kain said as he grabbed Follow the wind.
“You write it.”
“great...I honestly don’t write my own speeches so this will be hard for me.” Kain said as he looked at the keyblade
“Yarg” the sword said as Kain dropped it.
“Gah that thing bloody talked to me.”Kain said
“The fact you can hear it surprisingly means you two are either really alike, or your heart’s as open as a hole in the wall.”
The keyblade again said “Yarg.”
“All its saying is Yarg...Is that normal?” he asked
“One rule of the Multiverse Kain, nothing is ‘normal’.” Eclipse says as he rummaged his pockets and pulls out a piece of paper. “Anyways, congrats on getting a keyblade, now you don't have to worry about losing a sword ever again.”
“That's a positive. I always hate being atomized and losing my sword.” Kain said as a DTL opened up taking Kain home.
“Now Zeke, what I originally came to talk to you about. I got a letter from dad about a week ago.” Eclipse said.
“Josh?” Zeke questioned.
“Yeah...I was surprised as well.”
“What is it? Death threats?”
“Actually...no. It...it is actually him trying to be a father instead of a ass.” Eclipse said.
Zeke chuckled. “Guy get’s his heart ripped out and NOW he starts having emotions.”
“Just...just let me read it out for you okay? He gave me this along with the ring he was going to use to propose to my mom.”
Eclipse read out the letter, Zeke barely believing his ears. “... Josh wrote that? Wait…” Zeke facepalmed. “God I’m stupid…”
“Don’t beat yourself up too much. You couldn’t have known.”
“No, I’m mad I didn’t see it. I mean, every halloween Josh pulled the best near death scares ever. Once, he dragged me along to chase teenagers in the country around as we both dressed like Jason Voorhees from Friday the 13th. And he scared me with a fake bomb in the car gag… he’s got a sick sense of humor… still pissed for the branding though.”
“Yeah...but getting this...I don’t know. It felt like something I was missing just fit. Anyways, we know now, and frankly I’m sure a good chunk of the family hates me, but I know what to do right now.”
“Damn… Well, still gonna punch Josh next time I see him… if I can see him by then. I think I’ll head off to bed.”
“Got it. I should head home as well before Luna and Shy decide to punish me again.” Eclipse said as he opened a DTL. “Oh and Zeke...If I snap, it will be different than you. You and the Psychopath have self control...I’ll just end up insane. If I snap, kill me before I hurt those I care about got it?”
“Bitch, if I lived through it so are you. Got it?”
“Haha, yeah, but not everyone is a total badass like you Zeke. Have a good night Cuz, see you soon.” Eclipse said as he walked through the DTL, much to a Dinky’s pouting.
Kain walked back into his bedchambers, ready to sleep what was left of the day away. Untill. “Sup bitch!” Cript said, appearing out of nowhere and scaring Kain.
“Great you what you here to kill me too?” Kain asked
“Nope, just here to say thanks for your help in getting Zeke out of that, as I explained, I can’t help directly, but I can help from siblings, so I have three gifts for you… well, two gifts and an offer.”
“What's the offer?” Kain asked
“As you know, I’m a god, and cause god logic I have a massive, ever growing harem of wives… I still can’t believe how big it is, but that aside, I’m offering you a spot in the family as an adopted kid… though I will make you teenage years to have it fit.”
“Well as long as I don’t have to go through puberty again I’ll take it...god king of the pirates...not as good a ring to it.”
“Demigod.” Cript said. “You have to earn god.”
“Same thing to be honest I was already considered a god by some you should check out the temple weekly orgies in my honor.”
“So full privileges or part?”
“I have no idea what you said but I will take full.” Kain said.
“Great, glad to have you son.” Cript said, patting Kain’s shoulder as his body changed. He got slightly shorter, thinner, and his body felt… different. “Wow… what are the odds.” Cript said.
“What?” Kain asked.
“Well, a curse on me makes anyone adopted into the family as a child genetically mine, and a randomly selected mother… yours seems to be… a griffon..”
“As long as her names not Gretta I’m fine.”
Cript took a look at his Assistant. “It’s Andra, but speaking of here’s your second gift, you now can have offspring with… literally any living race. Perk of being a demigod.”
“What's the final gift?” Kain asked unsure of what to feel about being able to have children
“Well, now this is just too convenient, I saw your fight and saw what went down with the ghost...blood… thing that looked like your love, so here.” Cript snapped his fingers. Gretta appearing dressed in white robes on Kain’s bed. “I pulled A FUCK ton of strings to get her here.”
Kain had no words he simply got on his knees and cried. “Thank you.” was all he could say
“Wha?” Gratta said, starting to wake. “Where am…”
Kain jumped on her hugging her “It's been three hundred years my love but you're alive...” Kain said
“...Kain… Oh my… what happened to you, you look… even sexier!”
“Please tell me she’s immortal too?” Kain asked
“Marry her and she will be.” Critp said. “It’s a passive to the family thing.”
Sparing no time kain got on his knees “Gretta will you be queen of the pirates?” kain asked
“You waited hundreds of years, and had to kill me several times to let me rest, of course dummy.” Gretta said, the two somehow kissing with their beaks.
“My king we heard voices coming from the room.” The guard said as they barged in. “Oh...we’ll just leave you two in peace.” the guard said backing up.
“I also kinda sorta… altered everyone’s memories of you, save for hers.” Cript said. “No need to explain, right?”
“I’m still king and Celestia is my drinking buddy right?”
“Duh… but as for drinking… you’ll need some REALLY strong stuff to get you.”
“Well after as few hundred years the hard stuff was all that took to get me tipsy so let's see the extreme stuff.” Kain said
“I’ll bring it to your wedding.” Cript said, walking out the door. “You two get busy, every reader knows what’s happening next.” With that, Cript left.

Chapter 2 The Temple of Orisa
As I was escorted through the castle I got looks from a few nobles who were aghast that a ‘filthy bum’ like me was allowed in the palace. “Hold on I want to make some small talk.” I said as the guard stopped on a dime.
“Okay sir.” The guard said.
“Hey Blueblood.” I called out “You still have that debt to the Pirate King?” I asked as the nobles all looked at him and me.
Blueblood looked devastated that I blurted that out when he was keeping that a secret for months all he could say was. “How did you know about that?”
I smirked. “Because the debt is being payed to me.” I laughed. “I’m the Pirate King, Kain Black Heart.” I shouted as the Nobles all looked at me worried as I knew that some of them had done things on my island kingdom that would probably cost them their houses.
“You’re The Pirate king?” He gulped as he backed away slowly.
“Don’t worry I’m not here for the debt yet.” I said as he sighed in relief.
“Then why are you here?” He asked.
“Business.” I respond with and walked with the guard to my appointment with Celestia.
I trudged through the jungle looking for this temple that was on my map that we stole from that treasure ship. “Just a few more miles and we should be there” I said as my crew looked tired. “Okay take five.” I said as everybody sat down.
“Just what are we looking for?” Grata asked.
“I told you before the temple of Orisa.” I said looking at our map. “This should be the the place.” I said as I moved a few leaves and saw the temple. “Come on, the treasures await.” I said, all excited.
“Have you ever seen the captain this excited?” Jonah a Minotaur asked.
“No I haven't, this treasure must be something.” Greta said as I combed through the pages of the captain's journal.
As we got to the door I looked through the journal, ‘Just like uncharted’, I thought to myself as I saw the answer in front of me. “Just turn this dial here and Kronk pull the lever!” I called out to one of the griffons. ‘Hopefully it won't be like Emperors new groove where he pulls the wrong lever’, I thought to myself as the doors opened “Okay Greta, Kronk and me will head into the Temple while the rest of you stay out here guarding it and making sure that the doors don't close.” I say as we entered the temple.
As we entered the temple we saw the previous people that tried to get the Eye of Orisa. “Ugg.” Kronk said in disgust of the corpses.
“Lets focus on the treasure.” I said as Kronk triggered a trap which sent me to the wall.
“Captain!” Greta said as the trap reset and I was pulled off the spike’s from the wall. “Are you okay captain?” Greta asked as i got up.
“I’m fine, but that hurt.” I said rubbing my head. “Anyway let's head further in and ‘This’ time watch for traps I don’t want to be a part of a trap I can’t get up from.” I said as we explored further in tripping more traps and getting me hurt. “what did I say?” I asked at the last hurdle.
“Not to trigger traps?” Kronk said
“And what have you two been doing?” I asked
“Triggering traps?” Greta said.
“Correct now let...” I was cut off by me setting a trap and a giant hammer falling on me and crushing me. As the hammer retracted back into the ceiling. As I laid flat like a pancake like something out a loony toons cartoon as I started to inflate myself I simply muttered “Not...a...word.”
“Umm... Look there, is the Eye.” Greta said.
“Good.” I said standing up. “let's grab it and use it to find the treasure here.”
“I thought the eye was the treasure.” Greta asked.
“No I’m going to have to study the hieroglyphics here but the book says the Eye is a key to treasure.” I said as I looked in the book that got damaged by all the traps. “Okay if I’m reading this correctly it says ‘Here lies the saint Orisa guardian of Celestia and Luna’ who ever Celestia and Luna are they must have been important.” I said as Kronk and Greta looked at me.
“You don't know who Celestia is?” Greta said.
“I’m I supposed to?” I asked.
“She’s the princess of the Sun the one who raises the sun and the moon.” Greta said.
Before I could speak a voice i’ve never heard spoke out of nowhere. “Why have you disturbed my temple?”
“What?” I asked as the two griffons looked confused.
“We didn’t say anything?” Greta said confused.
“Not you the voice it said we disturbed the temple.”
“What voice?” they asked.
“Hold on.” I said. “Where are you?” I said out loud as they looked at me like I was crazy.
“I am in the eye.” The voice said as I walked towards the eye.
I grabbed the Eye as the temple began to shake. “What's going on?” Greta asked.
“The spirit of the Eye is Waking.” I said as a shadow flew out of the eye.
“You wish for the power of Orisa then you must prove yourself worthy Pirate.” The spirit of Orisa said as everybody could hear her now.
“Okay the two of you run I’ll deal with this ghost.” I said as Greta and Kronk bolted for the exit.
“Not so fast.” the Spirit said as the door closed on them.
“So what do you want Orisa?” I asked.
“I want you to die.” The spirit said as three shadow clones emerged from the eye.
“HA Joke’s on you i’m Immortal.” I said as the shadows attacked.
As my shadow stabbed my chest it I grabbed my cutlass and cut the head of my shadow casing it to disappear. “Guys just stab them they disappear”
“Easier said then-” Greta was cut off by me shooting both her and Kronk’s Shadows before being tackled by Kronk.
“KRONK WHAT THE HELL!” I shouted as Greta looked worried.
“Sorry captain, but you almost shot First mate Greta.” Kronk said.
“Yeah to get at the... there were no shadow clones were there?” I asked.
“Shadow clone?” Greta asked
“Greta now the eye’s just messing with...could you let me go?”I asked Kronk.
“Ah, sure boss.” he said getting off of me.
“Good, now.” I said taking the eye and throwing it in the air before shooting it.
“Captain what are you...” she was cut off by my kiss.
“Trust me I know what I’m doing.” I said as she began fanning herself. “Now let's find the real eye.” I said as a door in front of us opened. “My guess it’s there.” I said as Greta composed herself.
“How did you know it was a fake captain?” she asked.
“I didn’t I just know that when you didn’t hear or see the shadows that something was up with the eye so I destroyed it.” I said.
“But it could have trapped us in there forever.” Greta said.
“... Let’s move on.” I said not having a retort for that as we continued on through the temple.
“Hello Celestia.” I said greeting the Princess. “And I take it this is your daughter.” I said as said daughter choked on her drink.
“I am Princess Luna and I will not be insulted by a pirate like you.” She said as Celestia grabbed her collar.
“I apologise she’s still getting used to dealing with people again and add the fact that she doesn’t know our history.”
“Yes she doesn’t know of the nights we shared.” I joked as Celestia simply laughed.
“You dare defile our sister?” Luna screamed as she lunged at me.
“Luna down.” Celestia said pulling at Luna’s shirt collar. “Sorry again, she isn’t use to your jokes.” she said as Luna calmed down.
“Come on you know we’d be the power couple that would shake the world.” I said.
“Yes but our hearts wouldn’t be in it and you know what they say about a loveless marriage.” Celestia said as Luna just sat there aghast that her sister was so casual with the pirate.
“Anyway shall we start working on the rework treaties.” I said as we started to get to work.
Further in the temple we found the real eye “be on your guard” I said as I pulled out my pistol while Kronk and Greta pulled out their weapons.
“There is no need for those here.” the voice said as I rolled my eyes.
‘Not going to fool me’ I thought as greta asked. “What was that?”
“OH come on, now you can hear the ghost?” I said as a spirit showed up.
“You have done well to survive my test and for that I show you the eye of Orisa.” The spirit said as the temple moved to show us where the eye was as well as some hieroglyphics on the wall.
“Let's see.” I said pulling out the book of the captain again i translated the hieroglyphics on the wall. “It says how to use the Eye to find the tomb of Orisa.” I said.
“How do we use it?” Greta asked.
“Well give me a moment.” is aid as I went to the eye... “This is gonna hurt.” I said.
Greta asked, “why is it gonna-” but was cut off by me grabbing my left eye and ripping it out of my skull.
“GAH” I screamed as I jammed the eye of Orisa into my eye hole “If i’m right this my sight should return...now” I said as my sight returned. “well I’m glad that worked.” I said.
Greta looked at me concerned “Boss your left eye is glowing.” she said.
“Really?” I asked as she looked at me.
“It's gone now.” she said.
“Oh well now we should find-” I was cut off by a beam coming from my new eye and landing on a map. “Is that our?” I started.
“Island I think it is?” Kronk said finishing my thought.
“Okay then let's head back out and tell the others that we need to search our island” I said as the doors opened behind us.
As we made it back to our ship we were stopped by a unicorn “Excuse me but we’re going to have to inspect this ship.” He said.
“And why does our ship need to inspected?” I asked feeling like this was a set up.
“You’ve been randomly selected to have your ship inspected.” The Unicorn said as I realized this was a set up.
“Sure just let my crew be on board the ship we’re planning on leaving as soon as the inspection was over” he said as I realised there were minotaur guard surrounding us this probably was a trap.
“Unfortunately you and your crew are going to need stay off the ship while we inspect it.” The unicorn said as I figured out the trap.
“Okay we’ll get out of your way.” I said as I knew this was a trap but I couldn’t prove it and If I was wrong it could land us in big trouble that we didn’t want.
The inspector went on we all waited for an hour before he came off my ship. “We have finished the inspection.” The inspector said carrying out something. “Seize them!” It was a trap.
“What why?” I asked.
“Simple, you have illegal substances on your ship” The inspector said.
“What substances?” I asked.
“This.” he said as he lifted the bag.
“We’ve never...screw it.” I said as I shot the bag out his hand and shouted. “EVERYBODY ONTO THE SHIP!” as my crew ran for the ship.
The guard captain overheard my shot and raced to see what was the noise.” Whats going on here!” the guard captain asked.
“I don’t know we were just doing a routine of inspecting ships when we found some illegal substances on a ship we were about to bring the captain in for questioning when he used a mini cannon to fire the bag we found then ran to his ship with his crew.” The unicorn explained.
“Not on my watch.” The guard captain said as he motioned the other guards to close the sea gate.
“Aw crap they're locking us in.” I said. “FULL SAIL!” I ordered as the sail as we went full speed bursting through the gate as it attempted to close on us. “Okay now let's get out of here.” I said as we sailed .
“That should wrap this up.” I said stretching.
“Yes this was a very long session and we must get ready to have Luna raise the moon.” Celestia said as Luna looked at her all huffy.
“You don’t need to treat me like a child Sister.” Luna said all huffy.
“Anyway I should head off I have a show to see.” I said wanting to see what movies were playing at the theater.
“Oh before you go Princess Twilight wanted to meet you.” Celestia said.
“I’ll meet go meet her then” I said as I walked to the door. “So where should I meet her?” I asked, opening the door.
“Ponyville, She lives in Ponyville.” Celestia said.
“That backwards town last I heard they were hiding from Zebras because they were ‘different’ ” I said.
“...Yes Twilight wrote to me about that once” Celestia said face palming.
“Anyway tell her I’ll come tomorrow.” I said as I walked out.
As we made it to our island I took some time to admire what it had become since we found the little hidden island grotto, We had to hire then blindfold some carpenters and raid a few ships to get the money to pay them and when they were done we had to find people with connections to the black market and whom would keep our island a secret, while finally we had to find and hire women to work at our brothel. We also had more ships than the one I started off with and two more captains which was good I gathered the two other captains to have a meeting one was a unicorn and the other was minotaur. “Good to see you two I trust that the jobs I gave you went well?” I asked.
“Well we have a doctor now so I’d say my job went well.” Silver tongue said.
“And We have successfully raided two more Slaver ships and freed their slaves.” Stronghorn said.
“Did any of them join us?” I asked.
“A few, the rest wanted to head for land.” Stronghorn said.
“That’s good I don’t want to force the Pirate life on anybody that doesn’t want it.” I said. “Anyway with these we should have enough for a third crew. But who to be the captain?” I asked out loud.
“What about Greta?” Silver tongue asked.
“No I already offered her a ship, she said she wants to be at my side.” I said.
“Anyway I’ll find a captain later, captain Stronghorn my sources say that an Equestrian treasure ship will pass through the the cost here.” I said pointing at the map. “And Captain silver tongue you are going to bring supplies from the mainland of Equestria to our little island, the gold to pay for it will be placed on your ship.” I said handing him a list of supplies that we need.
“Captian Black heart sir why do we need to buy supplies when we can just steal them?” Silver tongue asked.
“Good question it's that this island ever gets found out we can fake innocence and just say it's a hidden colony.” I explained.
“Alright then anyway what are you going to be doing sir?” Silver Tongue asked.
“Simple I’m going to explore the island and find this tomb of Orisa.” I said.
“What's the tomb of Orisa?” Stronghorn asked.
“If it's what I hope it is a treasure trove and if it's not a good place to hide things.” I said walking out.
After about an hour of walking and looking at my compass I finally found the tomb of Orisa “Finally.” I said looking at the door, as I was looking at it I saw a small little hole that I placed my left eye over to see what was inside and a small spike came out of it and stabbed me in the eye of Orisa. “Gah, son of a -” I was cut off by the door opening. “Well I guess I just opened the door.” I said. The inside of the tomb was a lot like the temple only without the traps which was a plus if I was going to reuse it as an emergency bunker. As I headed deeper in I saw some structural differences compared to the temple. “So I’ll need to make a note of this and this here.” I said inspecting a rather weak wall.
“Why have you come here?” A voice said.
“For the treasure.” I said going back to the wall looking for anymore structural weaknesses.
“You are not like the others that invaded my temple you remind me of them.” The voice said.
“Who's them?” I asked.
“Celestia and Luna.” the voice said.
“Who is Luna?” I asked. “I was told who Celestia was by my crew and they didn’t know who Luna was.”
“Luna is guardian of the moon, the one who raises it and lowers it.” The voice said.
“I’m going to call bulshit on that my crew said that Celestia raises and lowers the moon.” I said as the tomb rumbled.
“What do you mean Celestia raises the moon.” The voice said.
“That's all I know now could you stop with the rumbling I need this building to act as a safe house for the non combatants if this island becomes attacked.” I said.
“This island should be protected.” The voice said.
“Well it was hard to find.” I said.
“That's because it was meant to be hard to find.” the voice said.
“And yet we still found it. Anyway is there treasure here because my crew is going to be disappointed if there isn’t.” I said.
“Just follow the hallway to find the ship Ventum.” The voice said as it took me to a hidden grotto where an old ship laid in wait.
