Chapter 15: It's About Time

(Thoughts/ Telepathy)
"Attack Names"

"Arthur!" I hear Twilight shout from downstairs. I quickly jolt up from my sleep, accidentally fall out of bed and onto my side.

I quickly throw out some sailor expletives and I charge downstairs. "What's wrong?!" I shout as I run up to Twilight. I look around quickly and see Pinkie, Spike, and Twilight all wearing black, form-fitting onesies. Twilight looks like hell at the moment with her Eyepatch, Crazy hair, Head bandage, and the cut on her cheek.

"We're going to Canterlot to steal a scroll from the library. If we're not back within the hour then we've been caught and are probably being tortured. If that happens then it's your job to break us out, okay?" Twilight says.

I quickly look at her like she's insane before switching my gaze to the other two. "Is she serious right now?" I get nods from the both of them. "Twilight, you're the Princess's student and your brother is Captain of the fucking guard. I don't think you need to B-and-E the library. Just send the Princess a letter and I'm sure she'll send you the damn scroll. If you'll excuse me, I have to... What time is it anyway?" I take a quick glance at the clock on the wall and see that it's 10:32 am. "I have to get dressed, I have to train the guards in about a half hour."

Spike yawns and walks over to me. "It's about time someone said something about this ridiculous plan. I already wrote up a letter, want me to send it?" I nod and he walks over to Twilight's desk before picking up a letter and setting it aflame. "She should write back in an hour or so. I'm going back to bed. If anyone needs me, don't need me." He then takes off the silly outfit and walks upstairs.

"Awww! I wanted to break into the Castle! Why'd you have to ruin our fun, Arty?!" Pinkie childishly says.

"Because I don't want Twilight running around in a skin-tight body suit. Those shapely curves are mine and mine alone." I walk over to Twilight and wrap my arms around her.

"Arthur!" Twilight pulls herself from my grasp. "You ruined my plan! I had a map of the castle and everything!" She childishly pouts at me while stomping her foot. "You never let me do anything!"

"Do you want to break into the Castle?" I ask.

"A-A little..." She mutters.

"Then let's break into the Castle. I could make a game out of it. Let's see if we can beat Celestia to the Library." I walk over to the bodysuit Spike took off and I put it on. (Wow, this thing is really fucking tight. How do Pinkie and Twilight wear this thing so casually?!)

"Yes! The heist is back on! Pinkie, grab your stealth gear!" Twilight exclaims.

"Yay!" Pinkie shouts as she runs to a nearby closet.

"How are we going to get there?" I ask.

"I already got 3 train tickets ready for us!" Twilight says. "It's good to be prepared."

"Why don't you just teleport us? Wouldn't that be quicker? Hell, I could phase into the ground and get the scroll for you in no time. I could even carry you two and use "Kamisori" to get us there," I say as I scratch my chest.

Twilight pauses a bit and then takes a thinking pose. "That could work... Pinkie! Change of plans, Arthur is going to get us there!" Twilight says as she walks over to the nearby closet Pinkie closed herself in.

"Okey Dokey Lokey!" She says from behind me. I turn around and see Pinkie standing there with a blue bag and a few clown masks. "I brought my stealth gear for the heist, I even put points into Ghost and Fugitive for extra concealment!"

"Pinkie, I swear to god if you reference Payday one more time I'll never let you throw me a birthday party," I say as I rub my eyes.

"You won't let me throw you a birthday party anyways. Besides, I don't even know when your birthday is, you won't tell anyone," she says. She then zips around and jumps on my back. "Piggyback ride!"

Twilight just looks at her ruefully before walking in front of me. I quickly pick her up in a princess carry and I walk outside before using "Kamisori" to make our way to Canterlot.

(Time-Skip)

"Wow, that was way quicker than the train. Next time we have to come to Canterlot, we'll just do that," Twilight says playfully.

"Ha, ha..." I say as I set the two of them down. "You two go find the scroll, I'll go steal some other things to keep myself busy."

"You're not doing that!" Twilight shouts. I ignore her as I quickly sprint off before they can say anything else. I can faintly hear her shout, "Arthur!"

I turn and run into a nearby open door. I slow myself down to a walk and I mutter, "If I were something really important to a Princess where would I be?"

"How have you been, Moon Dancer?" I hear someone ask further down in the hallway. I quickly use Observation Haki to scout out the coming people. Two guards and a maid are walking toward me at a quick pace, judging by what they just said, they're just starting the conversation. I quickly jump into the air and use "Geppo" to hide above them as they slowly walk past me.

"Oh, I'm fine. How has your son been, is he feeling better at all?" I hear the maid ask.

I start slowly moving forward until I'm out of earshot. I fall to the ground silently and I pull the neck of the skin-tight suit over my mouth. I put my hands in a Naruto hand sign and I whisper, "Ninja." I hear more people coming so I duck into a nearby room. I look around the room and see that it's some form of study. "Oh, this is gonna be fun!" I exclaim as I look around for some kind of marker.

Eventually, I find a red dry erase marker in one of the drawers. Faintly, I hear the clattering of metal and as it gets louder I jump onto the top of a nearby bookshelf. As the noise passes, I jump back down and start formulating a plan. First target, Cadence. She should be able to point me in the direction of Luna, Celestia, and Blue-balls. I'm not even gonna use Haki for this one, just my own senses and ability to scare the shit out of people.

"Hajime!" I say as I exit the room. I quickly sprint like Naruto down the hallway and stop at the corner. I look around the corner and see a few guards posted next to a doorway. I start looking around to see if I can find anything to help me. I find a ledge about the size of a person sitting just above them. I use "Geppo" to get above them and I make my way onto the ledge. (Now, I wait.)

After about half an hour of waiting, a maid makes her way over to the door and the guards open it for them. I quickly grab the ledge and flip onto a similar one on the other side of the door. I guess I'm in the banquet hall seeing as how there is a large ass table fit for at least 40 people.

At one end, I see Prince Blue Blood sipping some soup. (Jackpot.) I look around the table and see about 10 guards posted around the room. I start looking around for some options, something to help me with my task. I look around and find nothing that could help me. (I guess I'll have to take him later.) I look over to a nearby open door and I use "Soru" to quickly enter it and hide.

I'm in a hallway again, I don't see any guards nearby so this place isn't that important. I start skulking toward a nearby corner and I look around it to find a woman dusting a vase with a smile on her face. She's humming a slow tune that I don't recognize. This should be easy. I quickly make my way behind her and I place the cap of the marker against her throat. "Tell me where Princess Cadence is or forfeit your life..."

She quickly locks up and starts sweating profusely. "I-I don't know where she is, I'm only a maid!"

"Then you know where her room is. Tell me." I start looking around hoping no one is coming down the hallway. Luckily, we're alone.

"T-Third floor, First room in the tower on the left!" She quickly tells. "P-Please don't hurt me, I have children!"

(Well shit, now I feel bad.) "Sorry about this." I quickly pop the top off of the marker and I drag it across her throat. She locks up at the feeling and falls to her knees clasping her neck. When she realizes she isn't dead she turns around and sees me standing there.

"W-What?" She asks in her confusion.

"I'm here to "Assassinate" the royalty. I'm doing this cause I'm bored as hell." I pull off my mask and she seems to recognize me. "I'm just gonna drag this marker across their throat and when I'm done I'll probably just go get lunch or something."

"But... Why are you telling me this?" I shrug and she looks at me weirdly.

"I felt bad about threatening you. I'm really sorry about that," I say as I lift her to her feet. I hear the clanking of metal coming towards us and I quickly disappear from sight by using "Soru."

I see her rub the marker off her neck before she walks up to the guards, probably to tell them what I'm doing. (Bitch! How dare you do your job properly!) I think as I quickly bolt down a nearby hallway. (Third Floor, first room on the left tower... How the fuck do I get to the second floor? Don't kitchens have those dumbwaiter things that lift food from floor to floor?))

I quickly make my way back into the kitchen and back onto the ledge using a rapid succession of "Soru's." I see that Prince Blue Blood has left and one of the nearest doors has opened revealing a long hallway. I look around the room and see one of those push trolleys that carries food from place to place. I use "Soru" to get into the cart. (Now I play the waiting game again.)

I sit for so long that I almost fell asleep. Suddenly, the cart takes off in a random direction. I guess I'm heading to the kitchen... I hope. After about 10 minutes, the cart stops and I feel someone place something on it. "Make sure this gets to Princess Celestia at once. Alright?"

"Of course, sir!" I hear someone say. The cart starts moving again and after another 10 minutes, it stops. I hear a faint squeaking and I hear the man start cursing under his breath. "Fucking thing... I hate these lifts, they're so fucking old that they're a pain in the ass to use." I guess he took me right to one of the lifts, the only issue is that I don't know where the fuck we are.

After a few seconds, the trolley starts moving and I make my move. I use "Kamisori" to quickly leave the trolley and I propel myself into the air. I start looking around, finding that I'm in a shabby wooden room with things covered in sheets. I wait until the man leaves to fall back to the ground. I quickly pull the lift back down and I see that nothing is on it. I guess someone got whatever they were taking to the Princess.

I quickly get onto the lift and start using "Geppo" to launch myself further up into the lift's passage. I count off the floors until I get to the third floor. I grab onto the stone ledge and I wait, trying to hear any noise coming from the other side. "Guards, be on the lookout for a man in a skin-tight black suit. He's presumably some sociopath with a marker trying to "kill" the princesses by dragging the marker across their neck. If we stay near them then we should be able to find him quickly. It's should also be said that the man might also be the same one who assaulted the Castle several months ago so stay on your guard just in case." I hear someone say on the other side of the door.

(Fucking cunt! You dare call me a sociopath! If I knew what that word really meant then I would totally put my foot in your ass! If they're going to cheat then I'll do the same!) I activate my Observation Haki and I phase into the wall. I quickly find and enter Cadence's room where I find her doing her makeup. "Princess Cadence?" I ask as I come out of the floor.

Surprised, she quickly jolts and smears makeup on her face. "Ugh! Couldn't you have waited for me to finish before you surprised me?!" She exclaims.

"Probably but I really didn't want too. I'm here to kill you," I plainly state as I lift my marker up so she can see it.

"With a marker?" She asks. She doesn't seem concerned at the fact that I just told her I'm here to kill her.

"It's a game I played with friends when I was in high school. It's called "Assassin," One of us is chosen to be the assassin while the others are either guards or targets. Guards have chosen areas they patrol or guards a hallway or classroom while the targets have a few things they need to do like check out a book or eat lunch while the guards try to find and stop the assassin from dragging the marker across the neck of the target. Guards and Targets win when the list is finished. Assassins win when either all of the targets are dead or all of the Guards are dead," I explain. "Now that I think about it, I really shouldn't have tried to do this. I mean seriously, what are the implications of me "assassinating" all four of the royal leaders."

"Yeah that does sound kind of dumb, but it sounds really fun! I think I have another marker somewhere around here, think I could join in?" She asks.

"Now I see why Shining is dating you," I say as I start looking around the room for the marker.

"Dating?" She chuckles a bit before continuing. "We're engaged!" She says with glee.

"You two are getting married? Congratulations! I might even give him some time off to spend with you..." I start laughing out loud. "Yeah, he's fucked at the moment. He may be alright with his spells but when it comes to physical shit, he's lacking."

"Ugh! Don't I know it! When we moved in together, I had to have nearby guards help while he sat and panted from one item. One!" She says. I start laughing and she starts laughing with me.

Suddenly, someone knocks on the door. "Princess Cadenza! We may have a security threat on our hands. Please, come with us!"

"He's no security threat! He's in here with me and we're having a chat. Please tell a maid to bring us some tea!" She turns to me. "What type would you like?"

"I fucking hate tea. Got any soda?" I ask.

"Ugh! Finally! It's expected of Princesses to drink tea but I hate the taste of it. I keep a stock of coffee just for Shining and myself. Want coffee instead?" She asks.

"Sure. After coffee, I'll have to find Twilight. I'm fairly sure she's gonna kick me in the nuts when I find her." I cringe a little as I remember the last time I made her mad.

"Twilight is in town? Why didn't she come say hi?" She asks.

"She was trying to break into the library even though she has access to it. I even told her how stupid of a plan that was," I say as I take a seat on her bed. "Jesus, this bed is soft as hell! Where'd you find it?" I ask.

The conversation drones on for about an hour until our coffee arrives. I quickly chug the coffee out of the small mug and I set it down on the extended silver tray the maid is carrying. "Time for me to head out. It was nice to finally sit down and talk with you," I say.

"You too! I have to get going as well. I have a diplomatic mission I have to go to in Tauros, apparently they heard about your little training group and they want to get in on it," she says.

"Really? I should start a guild or some-" I immediately stop myself. (Jesus Christ, why haven't I thought of that before!?) I quickly pull off my top so I can get to my pajama pants underneath my suit. I pull out my phone and call Discord. Once he answers, I quickly shout, "We need to make a guild!"

I hear him take a deep breath and exhale before he says, "What are you going on about?"

"I had a talk with Cadence and I came up with the idea of creating a guild. You know, like Fairy Tail." As soon as I say that, I hear him snap and I find myself in his living room with his hands on my shoulders.

"Tell me more!" He says with a large grin on his face.

"Imagine a guild like Fairy Tail except where I train non-combatants on how to fight. It'll have the same parameters as the original place. F to S ranked mages/fighters that take on jobs around Equestria. You could be the guild master for the magical sides of things while I am the guild master for the physical side of things. You in?" I as I extend my hand to the man.

"Should we make a guild house here or in Canterlot? Canterlot would bring more people in quicker while here would keep us close to home," he asks as he shakes my hand.

"I still have one of those prizes I told you about. Maybe I can reclaim it to get the entire Fairy Tail guild house?" I start looking through my phone to find the number.

I quickly text it and ask if I can do that. A few seconds later, I feel my phone vibrate and I see the reply. "Sorry, but you can only redeem prizes that belong to the same universe as the character you were displaced as."

"But I wasn't displaced as a character," I say.

I quickly send that to him and shortly after I get another reply. "Seriously?! One moment." Shortly after I read that, a portal opens in front of me, similar to the ones that open when another monster appears. A man steps out wearing the RE4 Merchant costume but the mask and hood are pulled down revealing a bald man with numerous scars. His bright blue eyes look at me as I stand there. "Wow, you really weren't displaced as a character... I don't think there are rules for people like you seeing as how this rarely happens."

"Well then shouldn't I be able to get a guild house?" I ask.

"I-" He cuts himself short as he takes a thinking pose. "I'll see if I have one but if I don't you can probably just redeem some money to get the funds to do so. I probably have some extra floor plans I can give you."As he steps back, a portal formed around him. After about 10 minutes, he reappears with a couple of sheets of paper in his hands. "I don't have the guild itself but I do have these floor plans. It's yours if you redeem them. Just know that these belonged to Makarov Dreyar so you'll probably get his abilities and skills as well once you touch them."

"What kind of things should I expect once I take these?" I ask.

"Well... Master Makarov had complete mastery over Giant Magic, Defensive Seal Magic, Fairy Law, Light, Fire, Ice, Wind, Requip, Dispel, and Telepathy Magic. He's extremely powerful, It's one of the reasons why he was one of the 10 Wizard Saints," He states.

"So... Would I be able to teach others how to use this magic? Most magic in this Equestria is done with a wand," I ask.

"Once you take the plans, the magical properties of the Fairy Tail universe would be transferred to here, allowing anyone to use magic such as yours. Hell, after a few hundred years people would even start making their own magic," he says.

"Okay, that's pretty fucking cool," I say with a grin. I look over at Discord and see he's grinning with me.

"Why do you think your guards have been able to keep up with your training? I looked up your file and I read that you've started training guards. When you entered this world you also gave every entity the ability to be as strong as any One Piece character. Sure, it's a little hard to notice but you changed the world by entering it," he states.

"That does make sense. Most people back in my time wouldn't have been able to keep up with you on any day but nowadays your guards are slowly becoming monsters in their own right," Discord says.

"I have a file?" I ask.

"We keep files on every Displaced character, you're not special." I quickly look down at the ground with fake tears in my eyes. "Well, are you going to take the plans or not?" He asks. I reach over and take the floor plans from him with a wide grin on my face. He quickly throws his hood and mask back on and says, "Pleasure doing business with you."

He walks backward and another portal appears behind him. He walks into it and he disappears once more. "Well... What the fuck do we do now?" I ask.

Discord shrugs before he looks at the floor plans. "Wanna go get zoning permits?"

"Wait... Now that I know how to use magic, shouldn't I be the central Guild Master?" I ask.

"I guess? I just want to start taking jobs, to be honest. It's been really boring since Fluttershy left for Cloudsdale," he says in a depressed tone.

"Why's she in Cloudsdale?" I ask.

"She's visiting her parents for their anniversary," he states.

"You know this how?" I ask. I cross my arms and shove him with my shoulder as we walk out of the house.

"We... May have started dating and we may have moved in together. The only reason why I was at this house was so I could pack my things," he quietly says.

"About god damn time!" I shout. As we continue walking, I remember the fact that I just bought a new type of magic into this world. "Maybe we should tell Celestia about the new type of magic. She could probably back our new guild and help us find members and jobs. Hell, maybe we could talk her into creating the 10 Wizard Saints with you and me as members."

"That... Might actually be a good idea. Shall we take your ride or mine?" He asks in a posh voice as he lifts his hand.

"Yours. Shall we my friend?" I grab onto his shoulder and he snaps, bringing us to the Castle throne room where Celestia is in the middle of Day Court. "Celly, we need your help!" I tuck the floor plans under my arm and I walk up to her. I ignore the man looking at me with anger as he walks up to me. I grab his face and lift him off of the ground. "Not the time to be starting shit." I let him go and he sprints out of the throne room.

"Arthur, Discord, It's a pleasure to see you. I heard that you were in the area when Twilight showed up this morning trying to break into the library. I had received a letter only minutes before you had arrived. I also heard that you had assaulted one of my maids, mind telling me about that?" She asks with a stern tone and look.

"Not the time. I caused a new type of magic to form and I gave it to everyone on the planet. I want to create a magical guild to help people understand and learn how to use it," I say as Discord takes the plans from under my arm, showing them to the princess.

"You caused a new type of magic?! That's insane! You have to be joking with me!" She exclaims.

I just look at her like "Try me bitch" as I tap into my new powers. I use "Requip" to change into Makarov's Wizard Saint Outfit. Then I use "Fire, Ice, and Light" magic to form the letters "Fairy Tail" above my head. (I can do a whole lot more too.) I telepathically say to her.

She looks at the letters above me with surprise and pure astonishment before she breathily stammers, "Y-you really did bring a new type of magic into the world..." She sits forward on her throne and tries to stand up but she finds that her knees are too weak at the moment. "D-Do you know what you've just done?" She finally gains her strength and she stands back up before walking over to us. "You've just created something only my mother could. My mother was the creator of the entire universe! How could you create something that not even I could?!"

"I'm actually from another universe but I don't really want to explain that at the moment. Can you please help us fix the problem we just made?" I ask as I pull out my phone. I start reading off the Fairy Tail wiki, telling her about the Magic Council and the 10 Wizard Saints as well as telling her about what types of magic there are, and from memory, I start telling her about how people will start displaying new forms of magic when they're born.

"T-This is insane! I can't believe you're truly from another universe..." She takes a deep breath before she relaxes. "I will make a formal address as well as send letters to every one of Equestria's allies. They will hopefully see reason and come join us in making a Council such as that. If all goes well then I will help you create the guild system created by the Magic Council and then we will form one of our own. I still have no idea how you did what you did but from what I understand it was by accident." (Not really by accident but I don't really think she needs to know that.)

"Should I stay in Canterlot for the time being?" I ask.

"I'll send a letter to Twilight when I need you. Don't do anything such as this ever again!" She shouts.

"Kinda hard to recreate the magic. I did it on accident so I don't think I'd ever be able to do it again even if I tried really hard," I say as I take the plans from Discord. I hand them to her and ask, "How much do you think this building would cost?"

She looks at them and then looks at us, "The creation of magic wasn't on accident was it..."

We slowly start nodding before we both look at each other then the nods turn to shakes as I begrudgingly say, "Yeah, it wasn't."

"You two are gigantic fools," she monotonously deadpans.

"We know," We both say at the same time.
