The Heroes of Harmony Arrive

Load Full StoryNext Chapter

You don't know how long you've been traveling, all you know is something has been calling you and your five friends to this place. You are a Warrior, and you walk with a Thief named Daryl, a White Mage named Rosa, a Black Mage named Beatrix, a Monk named Marcus, and a Red Mage named Sabrina. The one thing you have in common is that you hold a crystal in your hand. You walk through a small town named Canterlot. The guards look at you and your group as you walk through the town. When you are about to leave the town, one of the guards says, "The king is looking for the prophesied Warriors of Harmony." He looked at your crystals and says, "Th-Those crystals! You must see the king immediately!"

The guards escorted you to the castle, and see you to the king who says, "I am told you hold crystals. Is this true?" All six of you hold up your crystal, and he says "So it is true... the Heroes of Harmony have arrived..."

The king's advisor said, "Your majesty, we cannot be certain these children are the warriors from the prophecy."

The king shook his head and continued, "Yet they bear the crystals. I cannot shake this off as a coincidence. Warriors, might I ask something of you? Please, rescue my daughter Celestia."

The advisor looked back to you and said, "Tirek was once our most noble knight, but he has kidnapped the king's firstborn daughter. He is not the man we once knew anymore."

You nodded and said, "It would be an honor to serve you, your majesty."

The king said, "Thank you kind warrior. I am told you wish to travel north. The bridge was broken long ago. If you succeed in rescuing my daughter, I will have the bridge rebuilt to show you my thanks."

The six of you head out towards the Chaos Shrine, where Tirek was with Celestia. As you approach Tirek, he laughs to himself and says, "The king will have no choice but to give me rule of Canterlot if he values the life of his daughter! Canterlot will be mine!" He turned around and said, "What, some of Solaris's lapdogs? You have bravery, challenging me. But let's see how long that bravery lasts when you are up against the wall with me sword through your heart!"

As Tirek swung his sword at you, you were able to jump back in time. You yell at Beatrix and Sabrina, "Girls, shock and awe!"

They say in union, "On it!" and Sabrina sent out a bolt of electricity at Tirek, his metal armor making the pain even worse.

Beatrix said, "Good job sis, now it's my turn!" she blasted out fire from her wand, burning Tirek's armor, causing him to scream in pain.

Tirek growled and said, "Damn you... Damn you! I will end you!"

Daryl jumped at him yelling, "You'll die trying, you bastard!" and shoved one of his daggers into Tirek's eye.

Rosa stood on the sidelines, but she ran over to Daryl after he had been knocked into a wall, using her magic to heal his injuries.

Marcus punched Tirek as hard as he could, actually putting dents into the metal of his armor. "Boss, I think you should do the honors!"

Marcus held Tirek in a full nelson and you said, "I'm not going to argue. Tirek, you betrayed your kingdom, now you pay the price!" rushing at him you slash your sword across his chest, with Marcus jumping out of the way quickly enough to avoid your sword. As you sheathe your sword, Tirek fell to the ground, dead.

The magic Tirek was using to keep Celestia unconscious had been dispelled with Tirek's death, and she awoke. As all of you rushed to her side, she said, "Did you come to rescue me? My name is Celestia, Princess of Canterlot. Nobody has ever bested Tirek in a fight. You are very courageous, and very powerful. Please, escort me to my father's castle so I may thank you."

You told her, "As you wish, but your safety is thanks enough." and led her back to Canterlot Castle.

The king smiled at his daughter's return, hugging her saying, "Oh thank God you're safe, Celestia! You truly are the Heroes of Harmony! As agreed, the bridge to the north will be rebuilt, and I wish you luck on your quest to return the light to the Crystals of Harmony." he looked over to his daughter, who whispered in his ear and then he said, "Celestia, are you sure?" when his daughter nodded, he said, "Young warrior. When you return from your quest. I hope you will accept my blessing to wed my daughter.

You blush fiercely, and say, "Thank you your Majesty, but I am a simple traveller, I am unworthy of your daughter's hand."

Celestia took your hands in hers' and said, "No, you're more than a traveller, I know it. You were the one who slew Tirek, and while your friends helped, you dealt the final blow. Please, come back safely to me." she put her hands on your cheeks and pulled you into a kiss.

Your friends all made an 'aww' sound, obviously they thought this was romantic. Daryl said, "Boss, if fate didn't bring you here to be with the Princess, I'll eat my bandana."

You pull from the kiss and say, "Very well, my dear. I promise I'll come back safe. And when I do, it would be an honor to wed a woman as beautiful and graceful as you."

Your friends cheered and Daryl reached into his sack and popped a bottle of champagne, to which Beatrix questioned where he got it, and he answered, "They don't call me the Phantom Thief for nothing!"

The others laugh, and the king says, "It will take some time before the bridge is fully repaired, but you are more than welcome to stay in some of the castle's guest rooms. You young warrior... If my daughter allows it, you may share her room, as she is your fiancé."

Celestia smiled and said, "Thank you father, I would be very happy if you would stay in my room."

You blush lightly and say, "I would be glad to my dear." before kissing her again.
