Previous ChapterNext Chapter

I get of the train in Manehatten and go to the information pony, who is a stalion. "Excuse me sir, but can you tell me how I get to the "Luna's Sacred Hearts and Hooves Center" hospital."

"That is at the center of manehatten the fastest way would be by taking a taxi-chariot and let you take there." The stalion says and points to a few chariots which are standing at the side of the street.

"Thank you. Have a nice day." I say

"You're welcome. And a nice day to you too." The stalion replies and I walk to one of the chariots.

"Excuse me sir, can you take me to the "Luna's Sacred Hearts and Hooves Center" hospital, and how much and how long would it take?" I ask the chariot stalion.

"Well it would cost around 30 bits and It would take at least thirty minutes." he says and it slowly starts to rain.

"Then may I ask, could you to take me there?" I ask the Chariot stalion.

"Sure, get on, I will take you there." The stalion says, I get on the chariot and the stalion starts to move through the streets of manehatten, will we were on our he told a bit about manehatten, on the way we got a bit stuck in the traffic so I though for a moment.

"Could we make a quick stop here? I want to get something realy quick." I say to the stalion.

"Sure, I will be waiting." The stalion says, stops at the side and I jump of run into a shop and buy an Umbrella, run back get on the taxi.

"Ok we can go on now, thanks for the quick stop." I say with a smile, which is hard to see because of my full cover cloack.

"May I ask what the stop was for?" the Stalion says and we get stuck again, on the street, in the rain and I am dry here and he gets soaked wet.

"Well I did it to get this." I say and open the umbrella, holding it over the stalion, "so you don't need to be in the rain for the whole time."

"Thank you" he says and we take our way and time till we get to the hospital. "So we are there, it will be 25 bits." the stalion says.

"Here are 30, keep the rest and the umbrella". I say "Untill next time and have a good time till then."

"Thank you so much, have a nice time too." the stalion says and I enter the hospitall.

I enter the hospital and see a big round reception counter with two mares siting behind it. Then I see a sign with arrows to guid every creature which comes here. Next we have a few creatures which are sick and wait for something to happen. also we have doctors who are walking around from Creature to creature.

I walk to the reception and I talk to the two mares, "Excuse me, I am looking for a patient in this hospital who should be in a long come."

"Do you have a name?" one of the mares say,

"No and I don't think that this pony is known by a name here." I reply

"I see, then please take a seat we will look into it." the other mare says, I walk to a empty bench sit down, and wait, even now I dont take of the cloack.

After a few minuts of nothing happening, I see how one of the information mares walks somewhere, I still wait for something to happen. Well it's a hospital so I try to keep calm. It took a while for the other information mare to get back in the mainhall but she wasn't alone with her came two guards walking up to me and the mare goes back to the reception.

"Excuse me ma'am." of the the guards started. "We need you to come with us."

"And for what reason?" I ask them and stand up.

"You were reported for being a danger to this hospital and they want that you come with us." The other guard says with a more aggressive tone and now I am getting a bit pissed.

"Well Excuse me but I will not go with you two, I am here to see a friend of mine who should be in this hospital and I don't think, that my boss is not going to like it, if you accused me for no good reason, So what is your real reason that you want to take us away?" I respond getting ready for a fight.

"First of all what do you mean with 'us' you are sitting there alone, secound I doesn't need to concern you or your boss what and why we want to take you with us, now will you follow us or do we need to use force?" the aggressive guard says.

"I take choice number three I go to my friend and after that I report you to my boss." I respond

"If you say so now come with us-" I interupt the guards.

"No you don't get it, a little hint for you two, you should ask ponys who they are and if they something about their boss you should be carfull what happens after that." I say taking down the hood of my cloack to reavel my face which scares the guards a bit. "Also I am not alone, Cos would you like to introduce yourself?" I say with a bit of my dragon voice in it which scars the guards even more and to scare the even more...

Cos starts to talk with our dragon voice "Sure Shildi, hello guards I am Cosmic Eclipse the dragon version of this pony known as Midnight Shield, personal guard and friend of princess Luna and if you don't belive us the seal of princess Luna." And Cos pulls out the seal Luna gave us, with our magic.

Both guards look at the seal and their jaws drop to the ground and are just speachless for a moment. Both guards suddenly fall to the ground "We are sorry mrs. Shield and Eclipse, We ddin't know you were here, in the name of Princess Luna, I hope you can forgive our rudeness we will do everything we can do to help you, so please don't report us." the guards say falling on their knees and bowing the heads.

"Well if you say it like that..." Cos says and a very big and creepy smile is growing on our face, ok I know what he is planing and this could be funy, while the smile grow our red dragon eye started to glow, "I want that you two..." both guards look up completly scared "stand up and give each other..." well he likes to pull this kind of things out and scares others with this. "a hoof to the face." The very first moment as both guards heard that they looked at each other with such a dumb look on theĆ­r faces that I am laughing in my mind so much that Cos nearly couldn't hold the scary look on, but a secound later they both gave each other a hoof to the face and in our mind i am rolling on the ground not able to stop laughing.

It took a few minutes untill I was able to get everything back together and calm myself down and I take back over, our dragon eye stoped glowing, the creepy smile fades away and I started to talk to them again, "So, it seems like Cos had enogh fun with you two, now I want to see the Pony for which I came here, the pony which is in a coma and where no one knows where that one came from or who that is." I say with a serious look on my face.

Both guards gets up and the calmer one says "Sure, please follow me, my colleague will explain it to the reception and gets us a doctor." And we started to walk towards a long hallway and I put the hood back on. "May I ask why you walk in this full body cloack?" The guard asks.

"Oh that is only to not scare the other creatures completly when they see a black and blue unicorn and then even see that I have wings, It could be not so pleasing to explain that to every creature, so I try to hide that." I explained which left him speachless and we walk to the end of the hallway where a door is which the guard opens and then walks into the room and I follow him.

Inside the room is a bed with a pony on it under a blanket and I see a dark blue mane looking out of the blanket but before I looked closer the guard speaks "please wait for the doctor to get here, before you look at the pony under the blanket." I stayed next to the bed and waited.

It took a few minutes untill the other guard and the doctor gets into the room, "So Miss Midnight Shield I take it." the stalion in a lab coat starts talking "This is the only pony which we take care of, who we couldn't identify and where we don't know where this mare is from and why she is in this condition." the Doctor says and I turn towards him.

"So you are the doctor who takes care of her? may I see her completly, Doctor...?" I say wanting to hear his name.

"Sure just a secound, also I am Doctor Barn." the doctor introduces himself and takes the blanket of the mare only to reaveal an alicorn who has a red coat and a blue mane and tail, she is wearing a red armor and has a bandage with a moon on it as cutie mark.

"I see and I know who that mare is. Could I get some time alone with her?" I ask the doctor.

"Sure as long as you don't want to hurt her." the doc says and gives the guards the signal to let me and the mare alone and all three are leaving the room.

As all three were out of the room looked closer at the mare, "So you are here, too Midnight Bandage, Cos can you see something?" I ask in my mind.

"Just a secound," Cos repliad and took over only the dragon eye as I took of the hood our dragon eye started to glow again and Cos looked over the whole body of Bandage, and as he looked to the head of her he started to talk again, "I see that she has a problem in her mind, could be just her or something else, but unless that this is not taken care of she will not wake up." Cos explains.

"So we could go into her mind and look if we can help her. So let's go." I say to Cos and kneel on the gorund and put my horn onto the head of Bandage and casted a little spell and shortly after that we are in a big room- well more like a arena and in the center is Midnight Bandage standing with her long bow surrounded by ponys, who look like they are made out of black crystals and on top of a wall is a throne where a ghost form of our old queen is sitting there seeing me.

"So you are here too? and I thought I would never see my personal slave again," the queen says with a creepy smile on her face. "Are you here to submit to me again?"

"Nope I will not, I am here to free Midnight Bandage from you. So what will it be, do I need to fight you or do you let her go just like that." I say to her already angry for what she says to me and Cos.

"I would say, If you all can survive this I will leave but if you lose you all have to submit to me as the loyal slaves you always were." the queen says with a creepy and sinister smile on her face, and thanks to Cosmics memories I know what she is like if she has that look on her face, and that is not good.

"Fine but you have to promise that." I say and she promesis, the crystal ponys disappear and I go to the center too. As I stood there next to Bandage "Long time since we stand together on a batlefield, so let's have fun."

"Yeah let's have fun in this battle, Shield and Eclipse." Midnight Bandage says as suddenly a monster appeared, it looked like a black crystal-monkey but somehow was different, it doesn't has a tail and it weilds a shield and a giant battle axe, as I saw that one I pull out my black katana and take of the cloack and reveal my black night armor. "Uhh nice new armor you have there." Midnight Bandage says.

"Yeah well for now less talking more fighting." I respond and charge towards the monster and while I charge Bandage covers me from behind by shooting arrows at the monster which are blocked by the giant shield but he was unable to attack. As I reached the monster I run around the shield and go for a attack towards the hand where he holds the shield, but its very high so I spread my wings and fly up in a charge towards the wrist and with a nice and fast slash I cut of his hand, and the hand still holding the shield fell down to the ground. Bandage to that opportunity and shot two arrows into the eyes of the monster and one into the heart of the monster and the monster breakes into very little crystalls and the crystalls stop moving.

"So we surrvied this one so think about the promise." I say to the queen.

"Oh no you still need to survive, but I want to have a quick victory so..." the queen sudenly disappears. "Let's have the boss fight right now." and a Giant crystal version of our queen appears right infront of us.

"Oh you've got to be kidding me, now I had enough of you." I shout out put the black katana back and go into my dragon form, "Oh and thanks, now I will get a real fight in this form."

I pull out the black katana with my magic and storm towards the queen getting support by Bandage and her arrows, while I storm towards the queen she shoots magic beams towards me which I am able to dodge as I am near her I spread my wing and fly up to her face trying to get an insta kill but she knows that and let crystals shoot out of her body so that I needed to get back to the gorund and I decided to cut down her legs, so I charge forward on the gorund and cut through her legs making her fall over and Bandage is still shooting arrows on the queen but the arrows brake on contact with the queen. I then turn around and cut open the back of the queen fly up and split the skull of the queen and the queen disappears. "Ok you won this time." the queen says.

"Ok now we can go back out of your mind." I say "Let's talk outside of you mind more." and I left her mind.

Back in reality I stand up and Midnight Bandage wakes up to.

As we both sit there in the room I explained her everything about the situation we got ourselfs into, and I even tell her about the betrayel and the consequenzes and we talk about what is going to happen next.
