Bringing Anarchy
Right in Two
Previous ChapterNext ChapterSince the day was almost to an end, the princesses allowed us to stay for the night so I dropped my weapons in a guest room before going to meet the princesses for dinner which made me quite nervous. I walked with the girls with the exception of Rainbow Dash who was in the hospital, Twilight pushed open a set of doors which lead to a medium-sized room with a long table lined with chairs, both the princesses were at each end of the table patiently waiting for us.
They direct their eyes toward us as we sat down at random seats. I sat down on the right side of Luna and toward the middle of the table, right in the middle of Applejack and Fluttershy. Celestia smiles before levitating all the lids off the food trays, revealing lots of vegetarian meals and some refreshments. I take some salad and a few apple slices, I watch as everypony else reached for food before digging into my own.
We talked about random subjects as we ate before one question from Rarity seemed to cause silence "Why did your kind fight, darling?" I stared at Rarity, feeling somewhat offended. I ignore the question by taking another bite of my salad, the group seemed to get the awkward feeling so they began to eat in silence.
A song popped into my head which actually reminded me of why the humans fought, I began to quietly sing to myself to break the silence, everypony looked at me with confused eyes but my quiet singing was interrupted by Twilight "What are you singing?"
I quickly look at everypony who had their eyes on me so I quickly say "A song from my world" this seemed to spark the princesses interest when they smiled.
Princess Celestia cleared her throat before asking "Would you mind if you could perform it for us, I believe it would calm our nerves from the previous events"
I quickly thought about it and found no harm so I nod my head before asking "Could I borrow an electric guitar, left mine back in Ponyville"
Celestia smiled before her horn started to glow, seconds later, an electric guitar with an amp appears right beside me so I grab the guitar with my magical grip and levitate it in front of me before grabbing the pick that was placed conveniently between the strings and I strum a few chords to see if it was in tune. the second string sounded too low so I quickly tighten the string before giving it another strum.
The tuning was perfect so I pull up my memory music sheet and start playing the song.
Angels on the sideline,
Puzzled and amused.
Why did Father give these humans free will?
Now they're all confused.
Don't these talking monkeys know that
Eden has enough to go around?
Plenty in this holy garden, silly monkeys,
Where there's one you're bound to divide it.
Right in two.
I look up from the guitar to see the girls swaying their heads to the rhythm, even the princesses were slowly bobbing their heads. I never knew how influential my playing could be, I take a few deep breaths before continuing to sing
Angels on the sideline,
Baffled and confused.
Father blessed them all with reason.
And this is what they choose.
Monkey killing monkey killing monkey
Over pieces of the ground.
Silly monkeys give them thumbs,
They forge a blade,
And where there's one
They're bound to divide it,
Right in two.
Right in two.
I look up for a few more seconds to see their faces filled with sorrow, I could see the sympathy in their eyes but I look back down at my fingering before singing once more
Monkey killing monkey killing monkey.
Over pieces of the ground.
Silly monkeys give them thumbs.
They make a club.
And beat their brother... down.
How they survive so misguided is a mystery.
Repugnant is a creature who would squander the ability to lift an eye to heaven conscious of his fleeting time here.
I could almost feel the tears welling up in my eyes as I sang the last of the verse but simply shake my head before I sing
Cut and divide it all right in two (x4)
Fight over the clouds, over wind, over sky and
Fight over life, over blood, over air and light
Over love, over sun, over another
Fight for the time, for the one, for the rising
I look up once more to see tears in the girl's eyes, Princess Luna looked liked her dams were going to explode while Celestia frowned.
Angels on the sideline again
Been so long with patience and reason
Angels on the sideline again
Wondering when this tug of war will end
Cut and divide it all right in two (x3)
Right in two
Right in two~
I let out a quivering breath as I hit the last chord before looking up to see the girls with tears in their eyes, they started to stomp their hooves one by one which I think means some sort of an applause. I give a quick bow before Celestia asks "Would you mind for an encore?"
I thought for a second before shaking my head no as I said "No, I don't mind. But I would require a distortion pedal"
Celestia nodded before her horn glowed once more, a pedal in the shape of a hoof spawned in front of me so I quickly hook it up to the amp before stepping on it and plucking a few strings, I turn a few of the knobs to my satisfaction before preparing to play.
I pluck a few chords repeatedly in distortion before stepping on the pedal as I sang
What's coming through is alive.
What's holding up is a mirror.
But what's singing songs is a snake it is
Looking to turn my piss to wine.
They're both totally void of hate,
And killing me just the same.
I close my eyes as I sang, to be one with the song
The snake behind me hisses
What my damage could have been.
My blood before me begs me
Open up my heart again.
And I feel this coming over like a storm again.
Considerately.
I turn on the distortion again as I bring the pick down hard on the strings and drag the pick up and down the strings causing a screeching noise before turning off distortion as I sang
Ven-o-mous voice tempts me,
Drains me, bleeds me,
Leaves me cracked and empty.
Drags me down like some sweet gravity.
I look up to see everypony enjoying the music so far so I look back down at the guitar neck before singing
The snake behind me hisses
What my damage could have been.
My blood before me begs me
Open up my heart again.
And I feel this coming over like a storm again now [2x]
I take a 4-second break of strumming before turning on distortion as I raise my voice in my singing
I am too connected to you to
Slip away, fade away.
Days away I still feel you
Touching me, changing me,
Considerately killing me. [4x]
I look up to the group to see them blasted away by the sudden change of pace, I smile as I hit the same notes repeatedly until I sang once more
Without the skin
Beneath the storm
Under these tears
The walls came down
And the snake is drowned and
As I look in his eyes
My fear begins to fade
Recalling all of those times
I could have cried then
I should have cried then
I feel a tear stroll down my cheek as I think back to my childhood but I push the thoughts away as I continue
And as the walls come down and
As I look in your eyes
My fear begins to fade
Recalling all of the times
I have died
And will die.
It's all right.
I don't mind
I don't mind
I DON'T MIIIIND
I close my eyes as I scream all the oxygen out of my lungs and turn on the distortion once more. I become confused as I hear another pony screaming with me but I got rid of the thought as I start a guitar solo. I hit some high chords before sliding my magic up and down the neck of the guitar as If I had hands, hitting each note.
I am too connected to you to
Slip away, fade away.
Days away I still feel you
Touching me, changing me,
And considerately killing me.[3x]
I sang the last word before looking up to see slacked jaws and wide eyes which almost made me laugh but all that came out was a huge yawn from exhaustion, I set down the guitar and stretch out my neck and back before walking toward the awe-struck group. I give out a small chuckle before asking "How was it?"
Pinkie Pie suddenly screamed "HOW WAS IT!?! It's the best thing I've heard in forever!" I roll my eyes as I scratch the back of my neck.
Everypony seemed to agree with Pinkie which made me feel... different, It's been awhile since a pony or let alone a thing enjoyed my music. I smile as I approach the group before Celestia complements "That was a wonderful performance."
I nod and smile wider before Twilight says with a yawn "It's getting late, I think we should get some rest" Everypony agrees before they start walking out of the room. I was about to follow suit but I was held back by Luna and Celestia for a moment
Celestia smile turns to a poker face as she asks "Will you be willing to make weapons for us? We will pay a hefty amount for your services"
I smile before saying "If it helps this country then alright. I would also like you to get the weapons the Gryphons had so I can improvise with them, make more of a variety of weapons"
Celestia and Luna nods before Luna worryingly asks "you wouldn't know anything about interrogation, would you?"
I tilt my head in confusion before giving a nod but no before asking "What for?"
Celestia buts into the conversation by saying "The Gryphon general is not complying with our demands to give out information. considering your... violent nature, I was wondering if you could 'crack him open' for us"
I put the offer into the thought before agreeing "Alright, put him in a room where we can have some 'one-on-one time' for me please" I could see Celestia shiver before nodding. She calls over a Royal Guard before whispering into his ear, He salutes and speeds off which leaves me confused but I shrug it off and begin to follow the Princesses.
The walk was quiet so I decided to spruce it up with some idle conversation "I saw in a book that you're both called the Princesses of the sun and moon, why do they call you that?"
Luna gives off a light giggle before exclaiming "Because we control them, I raise and lower the moon and Celestia raises and lowers the sun, is that how it worked in your world?"
I shake my head no and explain "No, my planet circles around the sun and the moon circles around the planet. nothing controls them manually, same goes for weather, it happens on its own and is completely unpredictable"
Celestia and Luna seemed very interested but Luna changed the topic "Did you have any parents or siblings?"
My footing faltered a little when she said that but I go on with the question "I had parents but no siblings, My Father was a gunsmith and my Mom was a music lover. my Dad was always away on business trips but when he came home one day, He said there was an emergency and that we needed to head to the metros. I got into the metros but they were left out... forced to burn in the atomic fires."
My American accent was slipping, exposing my Russian accent more but I soon corrected it back to normal before continuing "I still hear the cries, the screams. I still see the faces of my parents before shut the doors to the metro" I look towards the princesses to see pure sympathy and sadness but I quickly look down to the floor to hide the tears welling up in my eyes.
The rest of the walk was silent until we reached the supposed interrogation room which had a cart with a white sheet over it. I walk up to the cart before taking a peek under to see a bunch of 'toys' I can use on the general, the door opens to a guard with blue hair and white fur comes out before saying "He is impossible" before sitting down in a nearby chair.
I look through the window to see the Gryphon with a smug grin on his face which somewhat angered me, Celestia quickly adds in "You can do anything to him but don't kill him please" I nod before looking back at the Gryphon.
To come think of it, he was wearing an outfit similar to a Nazi as well as the Nazi weapons his goons were using. I facehoof before exclaiming to myself "I'm dealing with Nazi's?" but I sigh before rolling my head and opening the door while pulling the cart in with my magic. I enter the all-white room to see the window was actually only one-way but I don't let that distract me as I set my eyes upon the Gryphon who has chained to the table. I let go of the cart before sitting in the chair across from the Nazi who seemed a little more uncomfortable but still kept his composure with the shit-eating grin of his.
I let out another sigh before asking "Listen, I can do whatever I want to you except kill you, so how about you tell me EVERYTHING you know before I wipe that grin right off your face" He did nothing but roll his eyes and chuckle so I grab his head with my magical grip before slamming it onto the table, I hop out of my chair before slowly walking over to his side before leaning my head down beside his before asking "How 'bout now?"
He spat on my face, causing me to chuckle before wiping the mix of blood and saliva off my face. I walk toward the cart and pull off the sheet, exposing the multiple tools. I see a notebook and inkwell and feather so I grab them to write down notes as I look over my options. I pick up a scalpel and look at the kraut with daggers for eyes, I walk over to the general as I hold his hand out with my magic.
I can see the terror in his eyes, he was beginning to crack. I chuckle a bit before asking "How about your name first?"
He lets out a shaken breath before saying "M-My name is Erich Von Birdstein of the A-Avian party"
I smile a bit before writing down his name as I ask "that wasn't so hard, now how about your parties plans?"
His face became stern before he began to shout "Fuck you, you Equestrian pig"
I shake my head before stabbing his hand with the scalpel. He screamed in pain as I twisted it around, grinding the flesh and widening the wound. I pull the knife out of his hand before walking over to the cart again, I set down bloody scalpel before grabbing some 'dental' tweezers and walking back to the sobbing general.
I let out another chuckle as I mock "What happened to the smart-ass general, all I see now is a crying bird that wants to be a Nazi" The sight of the bird seemed to awaken something within me, it was like a second mind in my head.
Yes, make him BLEED
I heard a voice which belonged to none of us, I seemed to lose control of my body as I walked over beside the kraut before saying "Now, give out that information before I TEAR a tooth out" My voice was not mine but was coming from me which left brought a lot of questions into my mind
He ceased his sobbing a little before saying "Ve p-plan *sniff* to take control of *sniff* Equestria" I seemed satisfied but my second personality didn't seem pleased
I slam my hooves down on the desk before shouting "YOU. ARE. HIDING SOMETHING!"
The bird began to cry once more "N-No I'm n-not" my body began to move without my control as I held the bird's mouth open with 'my' magic before grabbing the pliers and grabbing onto one of his molars. I began to pull on the tooth causing the Nazi to scream even louder than before, with one final tug the tooth came out with a spurt of blood.
I look at the for second before blurting out "You need to floss Erich" I toss the tooth away before asking once more "How about your secrets, or do I need to remove your hands before you tell me?"
His eyes went wide as he shook his head no "N-No I vill talk" He let out a sigh before continuing "Ve are making veapons with uranium" my eyes widen as pictures of the nuclear mushroom clouds flashed in my mind.
I soon got back control of my body so I write down some notes calmly before I punch the Nazi in the face as I yell "ARE YOU INSANE?!?"
He is a mistake, He will kill everyone. End him
I look over to the cart again to set my eyes on a very large cleaver, I was very tempted to grab it and slit this krauts throat but I look toward the 'mirror' and think of Celestia before deciding against it. I turn back to the Nazi before saying "You are playing with fire... What kind of weapons are you making?"
He sighs before saying "Bombs, what so bad about uranium"
I facehoof very hard (ow) before explaining "Uranium is highly radioactive which is a very toxic particle. If one of those bombs detonate, we won't be the only ones affected, Your country would get the radiation as well plus if one those bombs accidentally detonate, you could say goodbye to a city or two"
His eyes soon shrunken to pinpricks, realizing his mistake. I sigh as I walk back to the door before saying "Our time is up, be lucky your still alive... Kraut" I exit the room and shut the door, I turn to Celestia who is quite shocked herself. I shake my head before saying "I'm going to bed." I began to walk through the halls and eventually got to my guest room. I open the door before lazily swinging it such as I stumble over to the soft bed, I slip off my hoodie and body armour before collapsing onto the bed and passing out.
