A new hero
Chapter 5
Previous ChapterNext Chapter(the third day)
To say Celestia was slow is a freaking understatement. But thanks to my max level Skyrim powers. I could run for days without getting tired. When I did escape I was outside of castle. And to be honest I didn't want to go through Scooby Doo’s door tricks again. So I told Spike I was going the town of ponyville and not tell anybody where I was going.
As of right now I'm just outside of canterlot with Alima on my shoulder. Interesting enough if I clench my left hand twice the Skyrim menu will pop up on my left forearm.
As I scroll through the items I have. ‘my God I'm a freaking hoarder… oh what's this?’ as I was looking through the list I found two letters one called the destroyed Merchants note and the other one called the new Merchants note. I pull out the new Merchants note and read.
Dear Casey
Sorry for not telling you sooner but you have the same stamina carry weight and health as your Skyrim character. Along with his items. And can I just ask why you have 12 billion stamina and magic, and why it regenerates 7 billion a second.
You also have a live map of equestria and a new ability that will stop magic from affecting you. And if it's battle magic it can be turned against the user.
And I might of made some changes the world around you have fun.
Your friend the merchant
“Well that's good to know. But what are you planning merchant?”
Words started to appear on the back of the note. 'nothing I just wanted to spice things up for you.’
“Great I'm being watched by a weird old man.”
'not just me but the past of your home world. Good luck oh and if you fight discord give him hell itself.’
“So the old man's watching well that's not creepy at all.” Suddenly the letter caught a flame. Only the ashes left that blowed away in the Wind.
I let out a long drawn out sigh as I Summoned Arvak and jumped on his back and put Alima in one of the pouches. Which she immediately stuck her head out and mowed. I started off for ponyville.
(POV Spike 1 hour after Casey left)
“What am I going? If someone finds out I just let the new king of Equestria just walk out the door, I'm in so much trouble. What am I going to do?!” I said as pasted back and forth in front of the castle library.
“Spike is that you?” Asked twilight from behind the door.
“Ye-yeah it's me. Did you need me do something?” I could feel a cold sweat start roll down my face.
“Yeah can you help me research nightmare moon.”
(Back to Casey)
As I sat there cooking my freshly caught rabbits, the sun slowly setting painting the sky with pretty reds and yellows. As moon slowly made its way up into the sky.
“I'll see you soon nightmare moon so be ready.”
--- The next day ---
I stood just outside of ponyville wearing my new bleach mask and my brand new suit.
(The suit is black and red) With Alima on my shoulder. In all honesty it's like having a kitten on your shoulder it's not that bad.
I slowly made my into the town. So not to scare people, which to my surprise didn't happen. I continue walking to the location that twilight and Spike will show up in a couple of hours. I found a bench nearby took a seat and made a laser pointer and started to play with Alima.
A couple hours later I was just seating with Alima fast a sleep on my lap. I turned my gaze to the sky. Where I saw the carriage being pulled by two pagase guards. 'show time’ I woke Alima and put her on my shoulder. As I made my way to them, I could hear parts of what they saying.
"But when will you make friends like the princess said?" asked Spike
"she said to check on preparations. I am her student and I'll do my royal duty, but the fate of equestria does not rest on me making friends" replied Twilight
"maybe the ponies in Ponyville have interesting things to talk about, hey Twilight look! Look there's Casey!” said Spike
Twilight looked up at me and said “oh your majesty what are you doing here and not in the castle?”
I rolled my eyes “twilight please stop calling me 'your majesty’ I'm not a prince. And how did you it was me?”
“Your mask, your the only pony I know that wears a mask and the matacore it's kinda obvious… wait how did you know we coming here?” Asked Spike
“Wait you knew Celestia was sending us here how?!” asked twilight
I shrugged my shoulder “I don't know lucky guess. I just wanted out of that castle… so Spike what's first on that list of yours?”
“oh yeah uh first food preparations, the apple family are in charge they should be at sweet apple acres.”
“Ok but first… Twilight I want you to go talk to that pink mare over there.” I said pointing at the soon to be known as Pinkie pie.
“Why?” Asked twilight
“You need to make friends.”
She sighed as she walked over to her “uhh... Hello?"
"*gaaaaassssppppp*" said the pink mare as she disappeared, leaving a ball of dust behind.
“Well that was interesting.” Said Spike
We started our way to sweat apple acres. And I was getting more than a few stares. 'it's probably the mask.’
(Sweet apple acres)
“First up food preparations.” Said Spike as he looked a checklist.
"Yeeeehaaaww" screamed an all too familiar pony who is kicking a tree. She was an orange earth pony with blond hair and a cowboy hat. She looked physically fit.
"Good afternoon my name is Twilight Sparkle-" Twilight was cut off by the orange earth pony who shaking her hand at the goddamn speed of light.
"Well, howdy-doo miss Twilight, a pleasure makin' ya acquaintance, I am Applejack. We here at sweet apple acres sure do like making new friends." said Applejack
"friends? actually I" Twilight tried to speak, but had hard times saying something while her arm was being ripped off.
"So, what can I do for ya?" she said while winking at Twilight.
Twilight arm was still going up and down till Spike stopped her arm, even if he did take a couple tries to do it. "*clearing throat* well I am in fact here to supervise preparation for the summer sun celebration and you're in charge with the food?" said Twilight like a real business mare
"we sure as sugar are! Would you care to sample some" asked Applejack
‘This is great, even with my existence in the world, everything is still according as planned and I get to see it all happen front of my eyes... great I'm starting to sound like a overly excited school girl.'
"as long as it doesn't take too long" said Twilight
"and what about you?" asked Applejack
“I'd love to miss Apple. If you don't mind that is.”
“Shoot I don't mind at all sugarcube.” Applejack then rushed to a convenient placed triangle and began to ring it and said "Soup's on, everypony!" and an entire hoard of ponies ran out and made a big cloud of dust, when the dust settled, we were standing in front of a table. She continued "Now, why don't I introduce y'all to the Apple family?"
Twilight tried to leave as I sat down so I pulled her down into the chair next to me.
“I really think we should go.” whispered twilight
“None since we are guests here. Let's not be rude.” I whispered
Applejack seemed not to hear us as she started to list names off. “This here's Apple Fritter, Apple Bumpkin, Red Gala, Red Delicious, Golden Delicious, Caramel Apple, Apple Strudel, Apple Tart, Baked Apples, Apple Brioche, Apple Cinnamon Crisp... *taking deep breath* Big Macintosh, Apple bloom and Granny Smith. Uh Up'n'attem Granny Smith, we got guests.”
Granny Smith woke slowly “huh what what's going… oh guests one minute.” she slowly got out of her chair and walked over to us she had a noticeable limp.
I got up walked over to her. “Granny Smith are ok?”
She looked surprise I noticed. “I'ma fine don't ya worry.” Suddenly her leg gave way but luckily I was close enough to catch her. I moved her over to a chair and sat her down.
I reached into my pocket and pulled two potions.
One minor of health potion, and one potion of bone and muscle strength. “Hear drink up. It will help you.”
Her eyes widened when she saw it. “B-blood!”
“No the plants in the potion make it look red. But both it tastes horrible.”
I popped open potion of muscle strength and gave it to her. She hesitated for a moment before downing it quickly before coughing up a storm. I then popped the next one.
“Ok this is the last one.”
“No I won't drink it, you can't make me!” Granny Smith yelled at me.
“Your right, but instead of using a cane you'll be using a wearchair. Your bones are quickly decaying, if you do drink it you'll be able to all lot more. Like playing with your grandchildren.”
She looked over at Applejack, big Macintosh and apple bloom. Then back at the potion, she quickly takes it's and downs it in three seconds. When she was done she started to glow blue for a couple of minutes. When that was said and done she started to stand up. She blinked in confusion before she started walk then broke into a run.
I could practically hear their jaws drop to the ground. And I think heard Applejack say 'well I'll be’ I started make my out of sweet apple acres with twilight and Spike following close behind.
“What was in those potions?” Asked twilight as she walked in front of me.
“as for the potion of health imp stool, red mountain flower and wheat and water. As for the other I don't know I kinda just bought it.”
“Where were you hiding them?” She asked I pointed at the small pouch on my left. “That's Impossible there's no way you could have fit them in there.”
“Spike could you please come here for a few seconds.” As he came closer I unlatched the pouch and quickly slitted over top of his head and pushed down. At this point only his feet poking out. I slowly pulled the bag up. When he was out of pouch had felsaad tern feathers stuck to his head.
“it’s very roomy in there… what's with the feathers?” Spike said as started to pulling off the small feathers.
“Oh there felsaad tern feathers.” I looked over at twilight and saw she was frozen. I tried to hide my laughter. “I think we broke her.”
He rolled his eyes and started walk over to twilight. “hey twilight you.” He didn't get to finish his sentence as rainbow blur hitting her in the side into a small puddle.
As they untangled themselves i spoke up. “Well well well Rainbow dash. So good to see you again. How are you?”
“Ugh my head… oh hey yoooou?” Said Rainbow dash
“what forget about the guy the best it you in a race and saved your butt Rainbow?” said in a fake shock tone.
I noticed both of them are covered in mud. I used San’s powers to lift them out of the mud and sit them down. And with a snap of my fingers they were dried off but both of their mane’s to go poof. I tried not to laugh as Alima her shook her head at my ‘weirdness’.
“Soo Casey what are you doing out here?” asked Rainbow dash
“Oh I'm here helping with the sunset celebration preparations.”
“Oh Rainbow dash aren't you supposed to keeping will skies clear.” Asked twilight
"ohhh right *sheepish laughter* The one and only. Why, you heard of me?" said Rainbow Dash finally
"I heard you were supposed to be keeping the sky clear *sigh* I'm Twilight Sparkle and he is the prince of Equestria, and the Princess send me to check on the weather" explained Twilight
Rainbow dash looked back at me “you a prince? What are you doing here?”
I facepalmed and let out a low grown as I dragged my hand down my face. “I am not a prince nor do I ever want to be a prince. I am a warrior and that's that, nothing more nothing less… hey Spike what's next on the list?”
(Before you judge me for trying to get out of this uncomfortable situation. You go be captain of a ship have it wreck from a attack and nobody survive then see how comfortable you are in my situation)
Spike scratched his head before pulling out the list. “Next we check on music but we need have the sky cleared.”
“Don't you worry I got it, Lok, Vah, Koor!” As soon as I yelled those three words the clouds started to disappear.
I could hear click of teeth behind me then I heard twilight say “I give up you know what, I'm done I'm going ignore anything you do from now on! Or your going to drive me insane.”
“You know the king of Stormwind said the same thing. So who's in charge of music.” I asked Spike
He looked down at the check list and said “Fluttershy she should be at the Park.”
“Oh Fluttershy you might want to careful she is the most shy pony I have ever met. No offense Casey but you tower over us by like 4 feet, I'd say your taller than Celestia… and Spike the dragon yes?” Said Rainbow dash
“Yes I'm dragon.” Spike said with obvious pride in his voice.
After we said our goodbyes we made our way to the park. When we got to the park me Alima and Spike sat behind a bush. You what's funny when I used laser pointer Spike started chase it with Alima, an tried to catch it.
“Okay guys I think we're done here.” Said Twilight as came back from taking with Fluttershy
We stepped out of the bush “so who's next on list?” I asked
“Next is a lady named Rarity who is in charge of decorations.”
*Audible gasp*
'good lucky Spike your o-’ my train of thought was cut off by something slamming into my side. I looked down at who tried to tackle me, it was Fluttershy hugging me with tears in her eyes. 'OKAY I'M SO CONFUSED WHY?’ I mentally screamed
“Um I'm sorry miss but why are you crying?”
“I'm I’m just so happy to see you again Casey.” She said as tears continued to fall off of her face.
“I'm sorry miss but this is the first time I have ever met you before.”
“Oh you might not know me looking like this… It's me Isabella.”
“I don't know how her name but she’s dead.”
“No I'm not the portal didn't kill me it sent me here… I can prove it.” she reached into a small pouch and pulling out a small gold pipe with a button on the side. She clicked it an it turned into a staff, Isabella's staff.
My eyes widened when I saw it. “Can you tell me something only the real Isabella knows?”
“mmm That one song you used sing about Pirates oh what was name of it… Bink’s sake.”
'I used to sing that song all the time when I was younger.’ “ok I believe you. So how have you been since I last saw you?”
And like that we talking for what seemed to hours what in actuality we were there for like 30 minutes Spike stayed with me because Twilight told him to keep a eye on the ‘prince of Equestria.’
Eventually Twilight came back wearing a gem encrusted dress and her clothes in hand.
“Hey long time no see. What's with the dress?” I asked twilight
“I don't want to talk about it……. So let's get going to Library so I can try to find out where nightmare moon is going to appear.”
“Okay I'm coming.”
“Is it ok if tag along Casey?” asked Isabella
“Sure thing Isabella besides we still have so much to talk about… oh yeah I just remembered I never got to give you your birthday presents.”
“Oh you got me a birthday present. Shouldn't have Casey. I know I went missing on my birthday but really I thought I told you not to get me anything.”
“I but I wanted to.” I opened up the menu and pulled out a necklace of courage and a new staff. (It looks like this)
“This is to much besides I can't even use magic anymore.”
“Yeah then I guess it's a good thing the necklace is enchanted with Mana Regen and Fortify Magicka and some other stuff. If I remember correctly you always had trouble with magic.”
Isabella had a slight blush as she put on the necklace she said “thank you.”
“Go ahead and try to cast something.”
She nods and casts a small vine bind. Unfortunately Spike walked in front of Isabella's tragt.
“Ah help the ground is trying to eat me!” screamed Spike as he tried to get out.
I laughed a bit at how ridiculous the situation was as I took out knife and started to cut away at the vine. While Isabella apologize for accidentally using a spell on him.
<30 minutes before the sunset celebration>
I stood at back of room with Isabella as everyone waited for princess Celestia or they thought.
Mayor Mare appeared and then announced"In just a few moments, our town will witness the magic of the sunrise, and celebrate this, the longest day of the year! And now, it is my great honor to introduce to you the ruler of our land, the very pony who gives us the sun and the moon each and every day, the good, the wise, the bringer of harmony to all of Equestria... Princess Celestia!”
As curtains came back to show no one. so I changed into my death knight armor I keep the mask on, and hid as people talked among themselves.
suddenly blue smoke formed on the balcony and after a few moments after the smoke has settled there now stood a about 9 feet high Alicorn mare with a floating mane that had the texture of the night sky, she also wore a heavy armor.
Nightmare moon then said" Oh, my beloved subjects. It's been so long since I've seen your precious little sun-loving faces."
'Funny Rainbow Dash didn't interrupt her like in the show’
Nightmare moon continued" Does my crown no longer count now that I have been imprisoned for a thousand years? Did you not recall the legend? Did you not see the signs?... What is no pony strong enough to say something?” I let a low demonic laugh. She looks over at me. “What is so funny knight?”
“Sorry I just think it's funny that you think your a threat or intimidating. Your about as intimidating as cat nightmare moon. It's adorable.”
She narrowed her eyes “are you making fun of me?”
“yes I am.” I snapped my fingers and everyone was teleported out. Except nightmare moon “If you have a problem with it you can take it up at our customer complaint department at 1-800- go fuck yourself.” 'I was up for two days straight you try being the nicest person when you're absolutely tired’.
Princess rage level : pissed “you dare insult your princess!”
I gave another laugh “my 'princess’ please I'm not even from this world. But hey if it's a fight you want. *A low chuckle* well let's just say I'm looking forward to a good fight.”
“A fighter well let's just get this over with beating you is going to be the easiest thing I do.” Said nightmare moon as she ready her Greatsword
“Oh yeah before we start I should mention that if you throw down your weapons and give up no harm will come to you. And trust me you just might want to do that.” nightmare moon started to run at me. “*Sigh* well I hope you're ready for a bad time.” I sommined my sword and blocked her attack with ease. I then kicked her in the stomach to make her back away.
She stumbled around trying to regain her balance. “You dare hurt the princess of night!”I'll let out a hardy laugh. “What's so funny?!”
“Nothing just you think your master of the night. Ha don't make me laugh, the night will never listen to someone as weak as you.”
“SHUT UP YOU KNOW NOTHING OF NIGHT!!!” Yelled nightmare moon in the royal canterlot voice.
“Ha Ha Ha then explain why the night let's me do this.” I snapped my fingers and created three white dwarf stars just above me.
“THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE! HOW! NOT EVEN I CAN MOVE THE STARS!”
I grinned as I used my magic to throw them at her. She tried to dodge but she got caught up in the blast radius.
When the attack was over nightmare moon was barely standing, her armor was broken in some places. Her right leg was burnt a little bit and she was bleeding profusely. She slowly made her towards me. She tried to cut me but I duct underneath and punched her in the gut. “I'm sorry princess but it was for the best.” And was that she passed out from pain. I put away my sword and used san's powers to pick up nightmare moon and carry her to the castle.
(Castle of the two sisters)
The Mane 6 stood were waiting there after they have unlocked the Elements of Harmony even without the 'help' of nightmare moon and now had no idea what to do next.
Rainbow Dash then broke the silence and said."I can't believe it! We went all this way and Nightmare moon is nowhere to be found "
"I too can't believe it, I gave up part of my beautiful Mane for nothing!? Truly scandalous" said Rarity
"Ah know what ya talking about Rainbow Dash, this doesn't seem right to mah" said Applejack
"This is bad! Celestia is gone and Nightmare moon is on the loose! Ohh what are we going to do" said sounding a little over worried Twilight
"Just have trust, Twilight. I am sure everything will turn out just fine. Casey taken care of stronger opponents before." said Isabella knowing Casey would take care of Nightmare Moon.
"Yeah! Don't worry girls, the big meany is already here" said Pinky Pie.
Before anyone ask what she meant, the sound of metal hitting stone filled the room. Everyone looked back at the doorway expecting nightmare moon. But instead of nightmare moon it was Casey. “Hey girl's how are you doing?”
(POV change to Casey)
Isabella ran up me gave me a hug and gladly returned it. “Miss me that much Isabella?”
She looked up at me and said “of course Casey it's been like 14 years since I last saw you.”
Rarity walk over us and asked “Fluttershy dear who’s your friend?”
“W-well his names Casey and he's more or less my father.”nervously answered Isabella
“Fluttershy I thought you said you were an orphan?” Asked Rainbow dash
“We can talk about that later! Where's nightmare moon?!” Yelled twilight
“Don't you worry I got her.” I used my monster magic to bring in the unconscious nightmare moon. “Don't worry she's not dead.”
“Excuse me partner but what's with the blue heart in front of her?” Asked Applejack
“Oh that. That's her soul. You see how half of it is upside down.” I got several nods from everyone. “This means a demon has embedded itself into the hosts soul. So my Theory is that if you use the Elements of Harmony on her it should get rid of the demon.” there was an audible gasp at the word demon.
<—––––———————————>
Luna now laid on the ground unconscious still. An I kneeling beside her using healing hands to fix the damage I did. I could hear the girls talking behind me.
“So Fluttershy before we used the Elements of Harmony on nightmare moon you said, what was his name? Casey yeah you said he was your dad. And how is he using magic?!” Asked rainbow dash
“I have to agree Fluttershy dear.” Rarity said in agreement
“I too am a wee bit curious about him. I mean don't take me wrong but I'm curious about what he gave Granny Smith mostly.” Applejack said in curiosity
“Well uh how do I put it uhm oh hey Casey can you remove your mask?” Isabella asked
“Sure thing Isabella.” I stopped spell for a minute and removed my mask and revealed my horn. I started to continue my spell as I did I heard an audible gasp fill the room.
“A A male alicorn he's a male alicorn.” Rarity said in surprise
“Yeah I just that's he's been able to live for that long. And for what I consider him a father to me.” She told them of the first time we met and how nice I was to her and how I used to sneak her out of her what she called it a prison for some quote on quote fun on the town. And then finally the day of the attack what brought her to this world.
“So let me get this straight, you're not from this world.” Asked Rainbow dash
Isabella nodded
“And he's the strongest knight of Your World.” asked Rarity
Another nod
“And you think of him as your dad.” Asked Applejack
Another nod
Suddenly a voice cut off their conversation. “Ah my little ponys thanks to you six you have successfully defeated nightmare moon and brought back the day and saved Equestria.”
Twilight stepped forward and said “it wasn't us princess it was Casey-” I tuned out the rest of the conversation as Luna's eyes started to open.
I looked at her face and gave a smile as I spoke. “Good morning princess, how do you feel?” She blinked a couple times before she suddenly shot for wrapping her arms around me and kissing me on the lips. My eyes shot wide open at this and I could practically here Jaws dropping at this sudden turn of events.
