It was the other day in Equestria as I was spending some time with Applebloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie belle, just having some fun time together as we always do playing games like, kickball, tag, and all kinds of games. The girls knew me ever since a few months back when I first met them when Fluttershy and Rainbow dash found me wondering the woods alone. Applebloom thinks of me as someone like Big Mac, but with more to talk about, Scootaloo likes to hang with me when dash is busy with whatever Rainbow dash does...? , while Sweetie belle really enjoys her time with me as if I were one of her family, while Rarity... Has other ideas in mind when it come to thinking about me and I rather not go there because I saw some things no one should ever see. But it every time the fun must come to end when I need to attend to my duties at night. It break my heart to end the fun for the girls, but I can't ignore the fact that at night Equestira becomes dangerous when night comes around. So I unfortunately I let the girls know that it time for me to go, this upset them and I tell them that we could always play tag any day. But every time before I go, I give each of them a huge. Applebloom and Scootaloo wish that I could stay they understand that I need to do my duties for the night. But Sweetie on other hand, she wants me to stay a little longer and just play a other round of tag as matter of fact Sweetie cries when I leave, so I give at least huge for 2 to 3 minutes just to claim her down before I go to do my duties. I know how she feels and she worried that she'll never see me again. That how Jillian felt when she alive, I still remember the talks we had together, I still remember her smile as I lit up her day, and I still... remember the last huge I ever gave her. Sweetie belle reminds me a lot of my sister and I almost cry as I held her in my arms. I kiss her forehead and careful put her back the ground as I take them to their homes as sun sets and the sky become night fall.
Our story then continues at the castle high above ponyville where Princess Luna attends to her duties at night just as I do at night as well to prevent creatures entering the surface world from place in the mountains called" The Endless Deep "is where a world lives underneath this world in darkness. Princess Luna stands outside on her balcony as she waits to hear the sounds of action come from the Mountians and the reason why She watches those Mountians was because the lives of any Royal Gaurd might not make it back after tonight. But most all Luna was every for Andrew because of the risk he take to spare any life than his own troubles her mind. Until she hears Yelling, Screaming coming from the Mountians making her heart race harder than the most intense moment of her life.
Deep down inside her heart, She deeply worries for Andrew and knows what he has lost in the past and it breaks her heart of how Andrew blames himself for his family's death When it wasn't ever on purpose. But it hard for him to understand that because of this heavy burden of his family's death haunts him more than the fact that he is the last living human being to exist. This also concern even Celestia that Andrew continue to fight for the right of all living beings that wish to live life instead of wanting to fight for the purpose of death. Andrew is feared by Equestria because of his power as GarWar making him so dangerous that it hard for anypony to even speak to him cause of it. But what really concern Celestia and worried Luna the most was Andrew's time could be near end while he still so young. However Luna later that night heard the action died down a bit and hoped that Andrew was still alive after what she heard. Then she hears a knock on the door and ran towards as quickly as she to hear what's happen.
She answers" Yes wha-! What is it?! " as soon as she open the door.
Her Royal gaurd was a bit surprise" Um? I have the reports of this night's mission. Your highness! "kneeling his head
She immediately unravels it and begins to read it and to find a successful mission well done with no Royal Gaurds killed in action Plus Andrew managed to survive after a bit of a struggle with couple enormous lizards and this brings relief to Luna. Gives the reports back to her gaurd and ask him to deliver it to her sister so she too knows what has happened. Luna then heads back towards the balcony and looks over the horizon... Wondering if maybe his family is ever still watching over him. Luna couldn't help the fact that Andrew is still haunt by his family's death. After hours passed The servants came to Luna's room to find her fallen asleep on the balcony. They went up to her and woke her up, So she could get in bed sense day has already arrived and Luna need her sleep for the next day to come. Mean while down in ponyville the mane six and Andrew were out and about when Applebloom, Scootaloo, and sweetie belle came up to them and asked if Andrew could come along with them.
He tells them" Alright, I'll come along for 15 minutes then I got to continue my business with the six, Ok? "Ask all three of them.
They tell him" Ok! "As they got exicte.
So they went to the open fields and enjoy the time they have before Andrew gets back to his job. After five minutes they all went to cool off under a tree and rest for bit. The girls fell asleep while Andrew was watch the birds go by and he looks down at them. In his mind his sisters come into thought as they would've spent their time with him just the same and this brings tears to his eyes because how of much he miss them. But it fills him with joy that these cutie-mark crusaders help him through the day by just have having good time together and in his mind this brings tears of joy because being around them brings a smile to his lonely heart deep down. But after they get up it almost time for Andrew to go back to work and this upset the girls every time making it really difficult for Andrew to even them. So he tells them" Well...? How about we get together a bit later Tonight at anypony's home of choice, Ok? " and the girl shout with excitement then decide that they should hang out in the barn at Applebloom's home. They all agree and then Andrew leave but not without some goodbye hugs before he go.
At times one of the girls will cry a little, but sweetie belle is always the one to cry the most when Andrew leaves. So Andrew just huge her alonger before he go back to his duties at night. It takes a minute or two for Sweetie belle to claim down after Andrew leaves to go do his duties for the night. Not only is he like family to her, but he also like a older brother she never knew about until a few season back when he first arrived to Equestira. Sweetie belle can be afraid of few things, but her biggest fear is losing her family and she worry of also losing Andrew, which would be heart break for her. Rarity was always there for her and Andrew became one of the family in sweetie belle life because he been there for her too. Until night came around again and it was time for Luna watch over Equestira and speak to Andrew and his team about their next mission for the next night. Luna was nervous even when she was about to speak to Andrew in person. So nervous in fact that she notice her own hooves shaking alittle bit. But with confidence she headed for the throne room to give Andrew's team their next mission. In the hall of the throne room Andrew and Omega Metal Gar along with their team behind them waited for Luna's arrive to give them a mission. While they were waiting Luna was peeking from the door in the throne room. Because lately Luna has been feeling something inside her heart ever time she see Andrew stand there with many thoughts of what's happening to Luna as they wait for her. She even her own face turns so red that she try to claim down as best as she could.
So she takes a couple of deep breathes and then moves forwards to Andrew's team. But Luna try not to make this awkward as approach them with as much confidence as she can show. Till final Andrew and his team bowed to her and was ready to receive their mission. Before Luna accidentally use her Candertol voice" Now then!- " she puts her hove over her mouth as Andrew and his Team try to recover their hearing after that one. But none the less they managed to recover quick and Andrew then get to the point.
He says to her" So! Your highness, what be our mission for the night? "As speaks in discipline voice.
Luna unrolls the mission document" Well let thou us see! Your duties this night shall these searching in the Mountains for- "she hesitate for what she about to read next is bad news waiting to happen.
So Andrew go to the right side of Luna" Let's have a... Look see if her majesty doesn't mind? "And she says" Oh! Of course!... Go ahead "she tell him.
So he looks at it! And the look on his face was like his worst nightmare just alive. While he was read this mission objective, Luna felt all kind of emotions plus her face begin to turn red when Andrew was so close that She could almost starts getting very puffy fur, but she tries to hold it back as best as she could so Andrew wouldn't notice it and making it awkward for the both of them. Then Andrew go back to his team and says" Alright Gens, listen up we got possible code red! I want Everypony to stay as sharp as possible when we get out there ok?! "His team response with " Yes sir " and they immediately get to moving towards the main entrance. But before they did Luna stops Andrew while his team moves ahead of him.
Luna get Andrew's attention" Andrew! Wait... " Andrew turns then faces Luna" Yes your majesty? "He respond
Luna had so many butterflys in her stomach that She hesitate to even say single word and Andrew says" Is something wrong?, Your highness " he asks her.
And she final says" Good luck!... OK " as She look at him with worried/flirty eyes when he says" Oh!... OK, ok? "Then he runs off to catch up with his team.
Soon as he left Luna suddenly puffy" Aaagh! Gasp nah! " as all the fur chest stand up in a instant with thinking. She begin pat her fur down and try to claim herself down as push her fur down. So after she claims down and brushes her fur down until,
Celestia came into the room" Sister dear?! " she ask
catching Luna off guard" AAh!... Oh phew! It only you. "As she regain her breath.
Celestia tells her" I apologize for scaring you like that, other that I have come to see what has happened? "As she look to Luna
Luna explains to her" I was just giving Andrew's team their? Objectives for the night! "even hesitated when mention his name.
Celestia give Luna a look with curiosity on her mind" Luna? Is there something else I'm unaware of?" She ask
Luna's face almost turns red before she says" No! no of course there isn't nothing else! " as She try to hide her embarrassment.
Celestia however would try to convince Luna, but" Very well then, I shall get my rest for the night then. " as she walk away
Leaving Luna to wonder why she just walk away from this subject. But then Luna just heads for her room and walks to her balcony to watch what happens from the Mountians. Mean while... Andrew and his team were get ready for a code red alert. Then OMG asks him
" So why are we on code red alert exactly? "Andrew tells him" Because I got a good look at the mission objective... And my heart "Drop" when I read it! "He tells him with a serious look on his face.
" OK, Ok, Geeze just relax! It could just be false alert for all we know! "OMG says to Andrew.
But Andrew can't help the feeling" Gar! Right now we need to be on high alert! I'm not going to be joking with you, when I say this! That that Orthores may even be around here to hear it " He says with frustrated tone.
OMG just stares for moment processing it in, then only says" really "showing no clue of what Andrew just said to him. Till his eyes jolted open with the look of shock on his face. He grabs Andrew and says" WHAT!? "As his eyes came into contact with Andrew's, wondering if it was the truth. Andrew tells him that it unfortunately true. OMG was so shock, at that it was really difficult to believe that it could be real. Then Andrew tells him.
" Ok! Let's for now make sure that we're ready, So soul destroying weapons ready because this! Is going to be a hectic night for all of us! "He tells Omega.
As Andrew's team looked around to find any signs of Orthores's presences in the area. They searched far and wide, nothing but stones and no unnatural occurrences in the area couldn't be founded. Andrew and his team were there for 5 hours already, Andrew wanted to keep his promise to the girls of being there to playing some games and tell stories before bed. So He decide to rally his teammates and calls it a night, since there was nothing to found for now. But just as they were getting ready to leave the area.
A Royal Guard shouts" SIR! WATCH OUT!!! "To Andrew
When it was too late! he suddenly get hit by a energy blast that shot him against the rocky walls of mountain. His team takes action as cover an unconscious Andrew laying on the ground. Firing their magic in the direction of where the blast came from, OMG takes charge, Guns blazing in all directions towards Orthores's doppelgängers that were spreading out as they Shot pure energy from their hands. Meanwhile... Back on Luna's balcony, Luna can see lights and can hear the sounds of magic casting, energies blasting, and Gun a blazing. She hopes and prays that Everypony along with Andrew are safe from harm's way. But as we head back into battle, Private Sanders is doing all that he can to protect Andrew, as he still unconscious and out in the open fields of battle. Till OMG knives the last doppelgänger through the head finishing the battle that went on for an hour. After that, the team gather the wounded and get them to the hospital and as they did, Sanders and OMG check Andrew to see if he Ok. OMG scan his body to be sure, the results weren't good as OMG found out. Sander looks at him with concern on his face.
OMG tells him" I need you to do something! For Andrew's sake on this...OK?! "As he looks at Private Sanders
Meanwhile Luna no longer hear the sound of battle. She returns to her room and waits for the reports on what's happen tonight. As sat on her bed, there a knock on her door. She notice it and then heads for the door, opening the door to let in one of the Royal Guard inside of her room to tells her the news of what's happen.
So Luna ask the Guard" Mission report, please "as she turn to face the Guard.
The Guard was a little hesitant, but tells her" Your majesty, report say that they were ambushed! And few of the our own Guard are badly wounded and are getting immediate transport to hospital for immediate treat done as we speak! "In steady disciplined voice.
Luna ask" How many? "Looking at the Guard all worried
Then He says" Ten at least, but our leader... "Bowing his before say" Our leader... was hit by a energy blast, that threw him against the stone walls knocking him unconscious. " he tells her.
Luna fears felt as if they became true. She feels her heart drop, as she takes in the news she heard. The Guard politely leaves the room, as Princess Luna take in this troubling news with heavy heart. However at the Apple farm, the girls were relaxing while they waited for Andrew's arrival to come and play games and tell stories like he promised them. Suddenly there a knock on the barn door and the girls jump for joy as they ran towards the door to greet him in, but instead the girls got confused when Applejack and Private Sanders came instead. Applejack tell the girls that Sanders is good friend of Andrew and has a message to tell them. In Sanders mind, he was nervous to say anything to them especially when Andrew promised to come.
Sanders takes a deep breath and clammily says" Girls, I'm afraid to tell you this but... "As he hesitates to say it.
Sweetie ask" Why? He promise us that he would come though! "With a depressing tone
Sanders says" Well... Unfortunately girls! I afraid Andrew will not make to night, because he got badly injured and was put into a... coma. I'm sorry for me to tell you this "as he lowers his head.
Applebloom gets upset and says" What?! does that mean?! " as try to speak without crying.
Applejack then runs up to her and held Applebloom in her hooves" No, no, no, no, Sugarcube! It means that he alive, but in a deep sleep that he can't easily wake up from. "While Applebloom sniffles with tears falling down her face.
Then Scootaloo ask Sanders" Will he ever be back?? "As tears drip down her face.
Sanders looks at her" It only... Matter of time unfortunately, so there no way to tell when he'll wake "as he looks down, wishing that he didn't have to say this to them.
Sweetie belle suddenly cries bursting into tears when Applejack stick out her hove as Sweetie belle slowly walk over to her with tears running down her face as She huddles up to Applejack, While Scootaloo liens against Applejack as She too sniffles and cries. Sanders wish that this never happen to Andrew, because these girls really miss him badly. Applejack looks directly at Sanders and tells him" I think they heard enough the night... Go on back to what you need to do! Ok!"When a few tears ran down her face as she spoke. Sanders nods in agreement, he turns away and heads out the door. Meanwhile Luna sit on her balcony with tears in her eyes, praying deep down inside her heart. She deep in thought about Andrew in his condition right now, in that hospital. Meanwhile... At the hospital, Andrew is getting brought in, by his team as they ask the staff members to get him a spare room for emergency standards get him treat immediately as possible. The staff did what they could as quickly as possible, after a few minutes passed they final managed to get him on bed, then did what they could for him. While his team had to wait at the front entrance for any word on Andrew's condition. Back at the castle though OMG arrives to explain to Luna exactly what to Andrew, this very night. OMG knocks on the door and ask to come in.
Luna sniffles as spoke" Yes, come in "as she remain on her balcony.
OMG enters and heads over to Luna" I know it been a rough night with the news about Andrew and all that "while she sat there without turning to face him.
OMG continues though" But I uumm... Made a scan of his body and what I found was a few bones cracked here and there. But concern me the most is when I saw on his head in the scan. "As he told her.
Luna try to remain claim as she to OMG say" his skull is really cracked, so bad in fact that his brain could just fall out. Plus I do apologize for that graphic idea to the readers that are currently reading this as I'm talking to Luna for the moment. "as he breaks the 4th wall.
Luna turn around to face him" Omega, please just tell me that he going to be Ok, right? "As Luna look at him with a heavy heart.
OMG seeing Luna's face made it even hard for him to say anything because of it. He kneels down to her height and tells her this" I'm not so sure this time. Even though at times he'll come back standing on both feet like boss, But this time who knows which way it going to go for him and I know it hard to hear this and that there nothing we can do about it. "Luna then returns to her balcony with tears falling down her from her checks. As she sat there sniffling and crying with the thought of Andrew not making tonight. OMG then politely excuse himself out the room. This how it must of felt for Andrew to discover his family's death, Just pain, agony, with no one else to blame but himself for all of this. If this is same that Luna feel in her heart. Then She truly in a way, understood how he feels inside his heart.
Where our story continues
Few weeks have passed and the word on Andrew was few day ago his bones are healed, but he has show no signs of waking up from his coma. Rarity even took sweetie belle couple times to see him. It was hard for Sweetie belle to even leave him alone even in this state of condition he in. Sweetie belle walk up to him, gets on the bed next him then snuzzle herself next him and she tells him all that she done that every same day. Laying there next to him make her wish that he was wake and was ready to make her day one to remember for the ages. But she only see the reality of him laying there perhaps even aware of her sitting next himself. It brings tears to Sweetie's eyes because of that night, she lost someone of her family. Rarity comes into the room to see how she doing before telling sweetie that they can't stay for long. It breaks Rarity's heart to separate Sweetie from Andrew because of how much of a brother he is, to only her sister. Every time before they go, Rarity let's Sweetie give him a huge for a minute or two, just like how he did before he leaves for duty. Then she climbs down off the bed and heads home with her sister.
Applebloom & Scootaloo visited him a couple times too. Bring him gifts for the day he finally wakes up and everything can go back to normal for Everypony. However two more weeks have passed and nothing happen yet, later that night Luna wonders why he hasn't awaken from his coma in such a long time. It always bothered Luna that the one thing she could do, she do in Andrew's dreams. But she thought that maybe this time, She'll see what happening in his mind this time. So she decide to give it a try and see inside his dreams. She blackout and fall asleep on her bed. At first she see nothing but a black void of nothingness all around her. She shouts" Hello! " as it echoes into the void, but she begins to hear something in the distance then it gets louder and louder with the sounds of Buildings crashing, women, children, people panicking in the streets, multiple repeating gun fire, explosions, and the sounds of chaos everywhere she turn and it felt as if it on for hours. Until it dies down and everything suddenly go quite, so quite that Luna could hear her own heart beat as clear as day. Luna remains so still, that she literally was physically afraid to move after hearing all of that. Suddenly a light appears before her and she no longer feels afraid. She walks towards it and she hears a voice at first, but it hard to make out who's it is. As she got closer though, she see Andrew appear in of her unaware of her presence that was there.
He stand there looking at two grave stones of his mother and father who die during the 10,000 year war between GarWar and OMG. Luna watches as he fall to his kneeled to the ground with disbelief on his face, in his mind that you would see the look of someone wishing that it was only some kind of bad dream. Luna listen to what he says,
" No,no,no! This! Please tell me this isn't real!! "As turn to look at somebody.
Luna hears another voice from nowhere" it's... It's real unfortunately. "Sounding like OMG's voice
Luna turns back to Andrew as his eyes open with the look of disbelief and realize the horror" No!.... No, NO! NO! NNOOO! It can't... IT BE TRUE! Please TELL ME IT ISN'T TRUE! "As tears ran down his face as he find it hard to believe.
Luna hears the voice again" It's... It's all true. " in low tone as if afraid to say it.
Andrew take in that every answer as he fell to his knees" No... This!... (Sob) this was all... me! " as he look in the same direction again.
Luna listens to the voice as she felt the emotion of what she was witnessing" If that's what you... Then maybe! "The voice says to him.
Andrew looks at the graves again and face change from disbelief to realizing what he done" This(sob) this all my fault!...(sob) I! I... Killed my own family.....(sob) "as he place his hand on his mother's tombstone.
Luna felt a tear fall from her check as she saw how Andrew found out about his family death" Andrew " was the only thing Luna ever said as Andrew's memory disappears into the void. Luna looks around for Andrew, in the hopes of waking him up. But it still nothing other than a void of endless directions to nowhere at all. Luna continues to look around, till she see a little figure in the distance. She walk towards the figure and begins to realize who it was, when she got close enough it was Andrew when he was 5 years old. Luna approaches him carefully without scaring him. He turns around and looks at her with fear in his eyes as she look at his eyes to see his beautiful hazel eyes of his. But Andrew hollers and runs from her.
Luna says" Wait, it Ok! come back! "As loud as she can.
But Little Andrew looks back and shouts" RUUUNN!! "As he ran for it.
Luna was all confused to why he says that. But the thought of it suddenly make her realize... One thing. She looks behind herself and see a enormous creature consumed in flames charging at her and without thought on her mind, She just runs for it catch to Andrew because he can't run too far because of asthma he has in his Lungs. She managed get next tells to climb on as she ran for it. She hears Andrew's breathing and it doesn't sound good as she ran from whatever was chasing them. As she ran Andrew point out a house in the distance of the void, Luna runs for it in the hopes of getting away from that monster. She opens the door as they got in and closes the door behind her then lock it. Find somewhere to rest real quick and check if Andrew is still breathing. She lays down on bell to let Andrew off of her back and as he did, Luna can still hear him gasping for breath. So she use her magic to help him regain his breath. After a few minutes Andrew sit up with his hand on chest as it still hurts to breathe. Luna then ask him out of curiosity
" What was that?!? "As she looked at Andrew
He says to her" It's GarWar's anger... (Inhales then exhales) and he been after me since I could remember in this place. "saying it out of fear.
She wonders why" then why it after you? "she asked.
Andrew said" Because it's my anger too!... I blame myself! Then my own anger is trying to kill me here "as he huddle his legs warped in his arms against himself.
Luna was worried that Gawar's anger would find them soon so" let's get out of here then before his anger finds us OK? "as she ask him.
Andrew looks at her as she got up and lens her hove to him as he says" OK! "He grabs her hove and they disappear in flash of light.
Afterwards Andrew finds himself as his normal 22 years old self" Phew!, I did not want to go through puberty again! Am I ...? Luna? Luna?! " shouting her name as he look for her, until he notice her on a ledge looking at the moon.
Andrew walk up next to her" Luna? Where are we? "He asked.
She tells him without looking at him" This used be my favorite spot to watch the moon come out at night. But it's also a reminder of who I was long ago... But ever since you came here!... You been a clear reminder of who I was! and would've happen if I hadn't realized what I've done without knowing..."she hesitates for moment then looks at Andrew" Andrew?! You really are like me! just a tortured good soul trying to remind all that you are... Indeed a good person! "As she said that, she was almost on the verge of tears and Andrew could understand how she felt.
He says to her" Yeah! But your people forgiven you were there for them, showing them the princess that you are today. Me! They fear me because they fear him and matter what I do. I'm consider an over powered freak to them " he paused as he looked away" (sign)... I'm too dangerous to live! "He says.
Luna shouts" Andrew!! Don't you dare say that! You not dangerous, it like you told us before" as she puts her hove on Andrew's face and turns him around to face her" Your not perfect, but it does mean that every other pony is! Andrew you done so much for us in the past that they should thank you for what you did for them! "As she try to cheer him up.
" They would, but they too afraid of me that it no longer matters to them! " as Luna put her hove back on the ground then Andrew says" Luna! This power!... Is my curse and it tortured me for so long that I could barely find a reason to live. This pain (sob) alone has already drove me over the edge (sob).... (Sob) That very day I lost my family... was the day my worst nightmare came true! " as he turn away in shame.
" for too long I have lived to regret my mistakes(sob) to be told about my family's death... (sob) no one should never suffer the way I do, if it weren't for this(sob)... DAMN CURSE!!! My family would be alive and happy as they continue their life's in peace... (sob) and I wish it were that way!! "As he slowly breaks down into tears" (sniffles)... (sob) They've would of lived in peace... If I just didn't exist... The universe would be better that way(sob)... "Luna understand his suffering.
