Even a princess has feelings

I ran outside the doors and closed them behind me. I was hoping that the doors would protect Tia and Blackbell from whatever is attacking. I then ran to where all the guards were going. They were all rushing to the grand hall where Tia and Luna would be ruling Equestria.

“DISCORD AND CRYSALIS ARE ATTACKING!” I heard Shining Armor yell. I then knew who was attacking. I have heard about the Queen and how Discord have tried to take over Equestria, but were always defeated. I had a feeling that it wasn’t gonna be that easy this time.

When I bursted through the doors I already saw guards on the ground.....some of them knocked out......others lay dead. I was in utter shock from what I was seeing. Then out of nowhere I heard the sound of a magical blast being shot. I looked up as time seemed to slow. The magic looked.....greenish mixed with a dark purple blackish aurora. I jumped to my right as the magical ball missed me by mere inches. It hit the doors behind me making a loud crashing noise as the doors broke and fell in a heap of rubble and splinters.

“Damn...that was close.” I muttered as I went to get up....only to slip in something. I looked at what I had slipped in only to be met by horror. It was blood.....blood of a guard. I quickly followed the trail and it lead to a dead guard slumped on his side his armor broken and cracked all over. Beside him was a sword shining bright in the sunlight that was seeping through the windows.

I let out a sigh as I crawled over and took the sword from his lifeless body. I then stood up and sound came back to my ears. There was commands being barked and explosions along with the sound of killing. Swords slicing flesh and bone, blood being splattered on the walls, and sounds of pain. I looked up and saw dead and wounded everywhere I looked. Dead guards, changelings, and wounded as well. I knew I had to get in this fight and try to help. I took the sword in both my hands and charged forward. I never held a weapon and had the need to kill. Only hurt or frighten. Today was gonna change.

“AHHHHHHHH!” I yelled as I took my first swing still running at a changeling. It looked up just in time for me to slice it right in half. I could feel the blade as it went through it cutting both flesh and bone. Green blood shot everywhere and some went onto me plastering half my body in it’s blood. I stopped running as I looked back at the now dead changeling. It was cut clear in half as light green blood poured out it’s body. Suddenly I ducked on instinct and twirled the sword so that I could stab it backwards. I hit something I knew that much from the resistance I felt. I turned around to see a shocked changeling looking down at me. I let out a grunt as I swung to my left. The changeling flew off and was dead before it hit the ground.

“LOOK OUT!” I heard a guard say. I turned only to see a changeling flying towards me horn at the ready. I didn’t have time to react at all.....but somepony did. The same guard that yelled for me to look out jumped in the way of the changeling. I could hear the sound of his armor breaking and the sound of flesh and bone breaking. The horn stopped mere inches from my chest...but the guard fell to the ground along with the changeling. I made quick work of the changeling by stabbing it through the head with the sword. It died in an instant as I took the horn out of the guard. I crouched to his side.

*Cough* “Prince Jerry.....are....*cough*.....are you....ok?” The guard asked trying so hard to even breath. Every cough he made, it was met by blood. I nodded.

“Yes...yes of course I did thanks to you.” I said.

“Please.....please tell....*cough cough*.....my wife......Farcry.....I love her...and give her....this..” He then took out a necklace with his shaky hooves. I took the necklace and as soon as I did that....his eyes rolled to the back of his head and he went limp. He died in my arms as complete guilt took over. I set him down gently and stood up sword still in my hand. My guilt was replaced by complete rage. I turned around and saw that there were five changelings standing there ready to kill me.

“You are all gonna die......you motherfuckers!” I yelled as I charged forward. I could see the surprise in their eyes as I began to slice them all. Most of them losing a head while others fell over with a gaping hole in their chest. In only a few seconds they lay dead or mortally wounded. When I was finished there was green blood along with a few bits of red blood from the now dead guard. I was gonna keep the promise that he wanted me to do.

I then saw the two responsible for all the death and misery that was going on. I saw Discord holding Crysalys almost like they were in love. I just grinded my teeth as I began to walk to them as more explosions from magical blasts hit around me and more dead changelings fell. Then right on cue they all turned and just....retreated it seemed. They just flew out the holes that were now in all the walls. They were all gone in a heap.

“WE WON! THEY RETREATED WE WON!” I heard almost all the guards cheer. It was the heat of the moment. Surviving something like this and living to tell about it. But something else crossed my mind...almost like a feeling. I felt complete depression and....pain. I dropped the sword as I turned and ran to where I left Tia and Blackbell. I was just hoping to god that they were ok. I was just hoping. I charged into the room and saw what I feared.

Tia was hunched over the fallen crib of where blackbell once laid in. I rushed over and crouched down beside her fearing I would see my dead daughter. But instead the crib was empty.

“Tia..what happened?” I asked. She looked at me tears streaming down her face. Her eyes went wide as it seemed more tears streamed down her face.

“Jerry you’re hurt!” She exclaimed.

“No no i’m fine. It’s from others...where is Blackbell?” She just wrapped her forelegs around me holding me close as she sobbed into my shoulder. I just put my arms around her and held her close as she sobbed. I could feel tears arrive to my face as I began to quietly cry as well. It was too much....too much...why did it have to happen now? Why not in the future where Blackbell would be able to take care and fight back...but had to foalnap her. Now we would have to get her back. We would have to get my daughter back.
