Deplomasy, guard duty, and familiar faces

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

For the past week Twilight and I finished moving into the library with the help of our friends. Earlier in the week I found two more runes and used them to get the pull ability. I figured out how to use the wind blast to lift people in the air. I was told to guard the princess. It takes two hours but it’s worth it. It looks beautiful. On the train I put on my mask and hood.

I bump in to stallion and I apologize. I look around and see a pony on the rooftop and a... CLOCKWORK SOLDIER. I see two stallions advice. I need to take care fast. Then I can check out the pony on the rooftops. I use bend time and shoot my sleep bolts at them. They fall over unconscious. I look around and see a pissed of stallion. It was not the one I bumped into. I use the pull ability and the wind blast ability to lift him in the air. I stop the abilities and he falls down. He lands head first. He loses consciousness.

“Sorry you had to see that sir.” I apologized.

“It’s alright. I’m Fancy Pants and you are?” He asked.

“John. John Maverick. I need to go. Bye.”

“Goodbye. John.” I use blink in front of him and grab his throat. He’s a whaler. I take off his mask and it’s... it’s Daud.

“Corvo?” Asked Daud.

“No. I’m John Mavericks.” I say.

“I’m Daud.”

“OUTSIDER!!!” I scream getting questioning looks. The Outsider appears beside me. Everypony stares at him in awe. The same goes for Daud.

“Yes John.” He said in a questioning tone.

“You lying son of a bitch! How do you explain this?”

“Daud... I thought you needed copay. I said the GAME is fake not denying that the events happened.” I knew he would throw a loophole. I chuckle a little knowing that he did this so easily. He is a little more specific than the games. Then again he’s real Daud real. Could that mean Emily and Corvo are real.

“Ok then. By the way can you get an M4?”

“What attachments?”

“Red dot and acog site.”

“Need a knew weapon?”

“Only for tomorrow. Then I’m giving it to Daud.”

“Here. Have a good day.”
He disappeared in a black cloud. I feel the M4 in my hands. A little heavy, but still easy to sprint with.

“So where are you going?” Asked Daud eyeing the citizens like there going, out of nowhere, try and kill us.

“To the castle to protect the princess. She’s meeting with the world leaders. Don’t kill anyone.”
I answered. I have him a quizzical look like he’s going to kill somepony in an instant.

“You haven’t taken off your mask.”

“Oh... thinks. So how did you get here?” My inner Twilight showing.

“When Delilah Copperspoon came back, she came to me first. She told me that she was going to take the throne and I was in her way. We fought for what felt like hours. Eventually she disarmed me and ran me through with my sword. Next thing I know I’m in a dark forest outside this city.”

“Oh, ok. Same here. Well the dying part yes. The Delilah part no. I was killed by a suicide bomber.”

“What your expected I’m not, how are we going to get me in?”

“Easy, I say that your in the same situation, but now the part that I’m the only one that has this mark is wrong. I can tell them that there are now three other humans with this mark. There just not here. Seems good to me.”

We walk to the castle getting the few glances from the nobles until we reach the castle. It was indescribable. Just magnificent and beautiful. That is all I can thank right now. It was night so it’s to go in.

I tell the guards about Daud and they let us through. The guards look shock at us but quickly changes back to there stoic expression. Damn there good when it comes to that. I stopped us to try to get a guard to laugh, but it didn’t work. We meet with Celestia and I tell them about Daud and that he’s in the same position as me and about the other two. I give the M4 to Daud. I set down some rules. “Rule 1: don’t kill any pony immediately. Rule 2: give ponies three chances before killing them. Rule 3: if the pony still continues to attack you or others after three chances kill them with a quick kill. Rule 4: don’t kill immediately unless I give the order.” He looks at me confused o why I said pony in stead of one or them. I tell him that there species are called ponies. He nodes in understanding and we’re off to sleep.

The next day, we wake up and I’m not excited about today. I was but now I I’m scared that they’re going to kill me. Wait why do I care. I can stop time. That Helped a lot, surprisingly.

“Daud get your fat ass up.” I command still a little groggy.

“Five more minutes.” He responds waving his hand in a dismissive way.

“Wake up or I throw you out the window.” That woke him up. I put my mask on and throw Daud’s at him. “Put your mask on. We’re going to guard the princess.” I walk out and poke my head back in and make a comment that was supposed to piss him off. “Don’t kill her.” He throws his sword at me. I put my head back out the hallway. Glad I did because it would have killed me.

“Fuck you.” He responds in a pissed tone. Yes it worked. I laugh and wait in the hall for him. He walked out still pissed.

“Don’t be like that. It was only a joke. Fine... I’m sorry. Happy?” I ask in a little pissed myself.

“Fine, apology assented.” I stare at him in awe. Did he just not try to kill me and actually take it. Wow... I’ve seen it all now. I can die knowing I just saw the impossible. All I need to see is him apologize.

The walk was uneventful. Can’t there at least let Daud try to kill me. That never happened. We make it to our destination and there is the world leaders.

“Your here!” Celestia said happily. “These are my two newest citizens. John and Daud.” They look ant us with amusement.

“If you don’t mind can we see there combat strength from a griffins strength?” Asked the griffin leader looking at us like we’re beneath him.

Celestia looks amused. “I don’t see why not.” Oh she wants him to look disappointed. Ha... Celestia you clever son of a bitch. I look at Daud and he is thanking the same as me if the chuckle is any indication.

“Daud take off your mask.” I command and he complies. He’s smiling like he hear he won the lottery. Same for me. “We’re ready. Sind your four best guards.” Daud’s smile gets wider and so does mine. The griffin leader complies. Four griffins come towards us. I mix wind blast and pull, using a little more wind blast, to pin him to the wall. I hit another with a sleep bolt. The other two griffins pull out flint lock pistols and fires. One comes towards me and the other Daud. Daud uses the bend time ability. I walk towards Celestia and stand beside her, still using my powers to pin him to the wall. Daud walks a way from the line of the bullets. He uses his wrist mounted cross bow and shots a sleep bolt at both them. The ability ends and to everyone else we teleported. I take out my desert eagle and fire it left of the griffin’s head. He passes out to fear. I stop my powers and the leaders look at us in awe. I walk to a wall and lean against it. His last guard tries to attack me. I throw him back with wind blast. I walk away from the wall until I’m ten feet, blasting him each time he tries to get up. I run towards the wall. I stop hitting him with wind blast.

“He’s insane. He’s going to run into the wall.” The cow like leader said. Oh he’s in for a surprise. The griffin gets back up. I wall run for three steps and jump off with a spin kick that connects with his beak. He slides on the floor unconscious. I look at everyone and they all look shocked, even Daud.

“Now you know what we’re capable of.” I say confidently with the biggest smile. “That was the most fun I had in a week.” I got a glass of water and start drinking like it's going to disappear.

“I’m surprised you and would have hit it off behind closed doors.” Celestia joked. I do a spit take and Daud starts laughing. So do I. Did Celestia just make a dirty joke. Twilight is going to drop her jaw when she hears this. “Sorry about that. Now we need to discuss trade agreements.”

“Say you to might have more use in the griffin empire.” Said the griffin leader looking at us like we’re a prize.

“Sorry but Equestria needs us more. The military sucks. Plus we have more experience than any other guard here.” A little pissed. They already have guns. They probably need an assassin

“Can you at least tell us your magic?” Asked the dog like leader.

“Ok. First we have blink, it’s like a long rang teleportation spell but only in a twenty meter radius and if we stand still time freezes. Next is the wind blast, it sends a shock wave of wind. Next is bend time, it stops time for a minute of if we kill or nock out three people or anything. After that is the pull ability it can pull your target towards you but if you mix it with wind blast you can lift them off the ground and if you over ride with wind blast to pin them to the ground or wall. The last one is the one I have alone or if the Outsider brings Emily kaldwin. The ability is called far reach, it acts like blink but instead of insent transportation it slower. It can also pull objects towards us.”

“I see how can the monitors get their hands on this magic.” Asks the monitor leader.

“Who gets this magic is completely out of my control. Sorry but that’s up to the outsider.”

“Plus if you do get the mark and you us it for evil. I will kill you myself. Got it.” Said Daud with a scale.

“This is most interesting. Can all species have this power? This will help the diamond dogs.” Asks the diamond dog leader.

“Yes if the Outsider thanks it will be entertaining. For me I became an assassin, the knife of dunwall, for John, he took out outlaws and criminals. He got his powers when he was killed by a suicide bomber. If your Corvo, get framed for killing an empress. If your Emily, get framed for slathering an entire throne room.” Daud explains like its a big deal.

“Daud and I got killed to get here.” I say getting shocked expressions.

After our little explanation the trade agreement continued and it was uneventful. After that we went home. “Said don’t kill anyone. Oh... and there terminology for someone or everyone is somepony and everypony. Got it.”

“John. Your... back. Wh-“ Twilight was cut off by pinkie.

“Oh oh oh . A new pony. I’m so excited. Are you excited? I’m excited, well exci-“ I cut her off with a hand covering her mouth.

“Pinkie, he is in the same situation like me and he got here yesterday. Let him relax a little. Ok. Hi Twilight good to see you.” I walk to Twilight and give her a hug. I look at Daud and he has a shit-eating grin.

“I see how you like it.” Daud teases and makes Twilight blush uncontrollably.

“Did you just do what Celestia did.” I say and look at Twilight and she’s in shock.

“Did she...” Twilight asked but I finished for her.

“Make a dirty joke... yes. It was hilarious. It coughed Daud and I off guard. But first let’s go home and and we need to find a place for Daud.”

Twilight thanks hard for a solution. “We could ask one of the other girls if they will allow Daud to stay with them.”

“Good idea, but which one would want an assassin with them.”

“Ha ha, Fuck you.” Daud said a little pissed off.

“Let’s go you two. Pinkie get the others. I have a feeling that we’re getting two more visitors in the near future.” We walk to the library and pinkie goes to get the others. If Daud’s here, than Corvo and Emily could get here. What are you planning Outsider. I guess we’ll find out.
