"Oh and, by the way, your mother sends her regards."

The princesses stare at me for five minutes straight. They lower their weapons after that, not sheathing them, and called the guards to stand back. They then went to their respective thrones, and took a seat.

Luna spoke first. "How do we know you meet our mother? How can you prove it?"

"I am sorry your highness, but I have no way of actually proving it, unless you wish to look upon the memory. I can say that she told me to send her regards though. That was shorty before she put me on the train to Ponyville."

Celestia spoke next, addressing Twilight. "And Twilight, why didn't you mention earlier that there was a new being in our nation? You know it is your duty to report these types of matters to me. It is part of your job as a princess to do so."

"Yes Princess Celestia. I am sorry. However, Cameron asked me to not, at least until she had been able to settle down and get a lay of the land first. I realize I shouldn't have, but at the time, I wasn't thinking properly. Please forgive me, princess."

"Twilight, you know you don't have to address me as princess anymore. You are a princess now as well, you can just call me Celestia. As for your explanation of why you didn't report, I am disappointed, but I am not angry. I understand that she is from another dimension, and that being thrust into another is probably very disorienting. Tell me Cameron, how long have you been in this world, and how have you liked it so far?" Celestia asks me.

"Well, I have been here for two weeks now. in that time, I have fought two demons, almost been killed by a manticore, and fought Discord. Other than that, the ponies have been friendly, and nice to me. Plus I now have Pinkie to live with, and me and her for some reason keep breaking the other girls. PINKIE, DO YOU KNOW WHY THE GIRLS KEEP BREAKING AROUND US. Sorry, she is in the kitchen. Needed to get her attention."

Pinkie flops onto the floor from somewhere upon the ceiling.

"What Cameron. I was in the kitchen. You wanted to know why the keep breaking when we talk. Their minds can't handle anything to do with the Flibblecorp. The garb and penguin accords see to it. That way, anyone outside of the Flibblecorp don't learn to much. It took some time before those accords where in place though, and during that time, the Bladder dimension accidentally was brought into the Butterhead dimension through Denralian spacial slips due to everyone in those dimensions knowing of our corporation. i think we broke everypony. We need to stop doing this."

"Wait, you two work for the Flibblecorp too. I thought I was the only on this planet who worked for them? How many more are their of us here on Equis?" Luna asks. We turn to her.

"Oh yeah, I forgot you worked for the corp too. Their is about five of us if you include Cameron. Me, you, her, Derpy, and Doctor Whooves, or Time Turner, as his name is." Pinkie replies.

"Ah, I see. I need to get in touch with the corp again. It was my first year on the moon that I meet them. Though at the time i was Nightmare Moon. Do they know that that wasn't actually me?"

"Yes. In fact, as a Flargen in the corp., I, Pinkamena Diane Pie, do welcome Special Sprand Luna, back to the corp. Can we get a round of applause."

Everyone suddenly starts clapping riotously, before stopping slowly, realizing what they just did. Celestia is the first to recover in any way.

"Can someone please explain. Please. It hurts. I don't understand anything of what you just said. Is it a Pinkie thing. If it is, that makes more sense. Actually, I know it is just a Pinkie thing. I feel better now. Anyway, where were we?"

"We where talking about how Cameron liked it here." Luna says. "I still think that he needs to prove herself to us though. What do you say to a trial by combat, sister?"

"I agree. Cameron, you will report to the arena in two hours. Be prepared to fight by then." Celestia then dismisses us to our guest rooms. As we get their, I ask Twilight.

"Is there a blacksmith around? I want a lighter sword than the ones I use regularly, less powerful. where would I go?"

She told me the directions, and I followed them to a cave set into the mountain behind the castle. as I walked inside, I saw a beefy stallion working the forge. Next to him, a mare of equal beefy-ness working the bellows. As I entered the cave, the mare saw me. She told the colt something, then walked away. The colt came up to me, after checking that the metal wouldn't get to heated and ruined while talking to me.

"What you need?" His voice was deep but young, as if he was in his twenties or thirties.

" I am here to place a custom order. I would like a longsword of durable material. I can pay whatever it will cost, and if I need to get the metal I will."

"Don't worry. Someone already placed the order for you. Don't know who, or why, but they did. Tell is your name and we'll give it to ya."

"Cameron Ruff."

The mare enters the room with a large wrapped object. She sets it on a table and the blacksmith walks over and starts to unwrap it. The longsword looks like the blade you get in the campaign of 'For Honor', when you play as the warden, only newer, without the blemishes and nicks.

"How much will this cost?" I ask, pulling out a bit purse.

"Nothing. The mare that came in here and placed the order paid for it already. She was a white pegasus. Yellow hair, white body, with three lavender balloons as her cutie mark. She made the order, told us who to give it to, and left."

I thank them, and pay them twenty bits anyways. They deserve it. I leave, and start looking for someone to direct me towards the arena. Finally, I find a maid in one of the halls, and ask her. She says she will lead me there, and she starts to guide me out of the castle. We get back into Canterlot proper, and she starts to take me to the middle most tier. We make out way through, and she finally stops at a place that reminds me of the coliseum. I thank her, and head inside.

When I get into the center area, I see the girls already their. Rarity is looking quite excited, making me question just how girly she pretends to be. She saw me first, and ran over to me.

"Cameron, your here! Perfect! I have an armor station set up to look over your battle dress, so please take it out and give it to me."

"Wait, your an armor smith? I thought you were a simple clothes designer."

"Yes, well, you have to know how to make armor as well to pass the academies, so I have read a few books on armor smithing and forging, and practiced till I knew how to make, repair, and service armors of all types. I have even serviced the princesses armor a few times. Now, your battle dress please. I need to look at it, make sure it is in proper order."

I pull out the dress, and hand it to Rarity with all the armor pieces and clothing under pieces, as well as the boots and arm guards. Applejack comes up next, looking at me.

"Now Cameron, don't go killing nopony, ya hear. Keep it clean, and fair. I don't want to have to call you out on account you killing anypony."

"You reffing?"

"Eeyup!"

"Yes ma'am."

After that, we see a crowd is starting to gather in the seats of the coliseum, waiting for the fight to begin. I wonder what Celestia and Luna told the people about me, and hope that it wasn't derogatory. Pinkie comes up to me, and pulls a small lunchbox from her hair. It looks to be a Vault-tec lunchbox from Fallout.

"Here, go eat a little something before you fight. It'll make you feel better. Also, I can assure you that the princesses said nothing derogatory about you to the masses. They only announced that there was to be a public duel. You will find something to eat and drink in the lunchbox, so go. Eat!"

She shoves me to a bench on the side of the arena. I open the lunchbox to find a nice, two course meal setup inside. I ate one course, and put it aside for later. I immediately felt energized, and walked over to the girls in the center of the arena, and told Pinkie thank you. She smiled and planted a kiss on my cheek.

"Alright silly, Rarity will be back in a moment with your armor. Then we need to go to the box, and watch. Don't get hurt okay. I don't date dead girls." I laugh, and say.

"It's kind of hard to kill me. I do heal faster than most, after all." I then see Rarity coming back with my armor and dress. She walks up to us, and holds it out to me. I take it and start to store it in my hammerspace. I then say goodbye, as they all run out of the center. I then see them in one of the boxes, underneath a larger box above. I begin to wonder who sits there, when I get my answer. Celestia and Luna descend from the sky, and into the box. I see Twilight come up and sit to their right, in another throne like chair.

"My ponies, I give you the chance to see a fight the likes of which you have never seen before. I present, Cameron Ruff, a being from another world. She says she is a fighter. We shall see. This battle is til somepony is unable to continue battle. This HUMANS challenger, is three royal guards. Ref, you may enter the arena." Celestia speaks from her box. Everypony is cheering, and I am surprised to see so many ponies here.

I see Applejack stand up from her seat underneath the royal box, and step up onto the rail around the arena. Then she just stepped up, over, and fell to the floor of the arena, doing a superhero landing(I hear those are hard on the knees). She then stands up and points to the gate across from me, as it opens, letting out three guards, each with different armaments.

The first guard, a female pegasus, held a spear, and had a short sword at her side. She carried a shield fit for a spartan. I figured she would probably be well versed in using them, and would be fairly tough to beat. The next was a male unicorn, who carried two hatchets, and reminded me of the berserker in 'For Honor'. The final guard was an earth pony. She was massive, her muscles bulging under her guard outfit. Fittingly, she carried an ax, much like the raider in the same game. This ax was more for utility though, and had nowhere near the style and power that the axes seemed to show in the game.

They all came to the center of the arena. I stood on one side, they on the other. We glared daggers at each other. They did, actually. I just wanted to go to my cottage and listen to some nice jazz and lofi chill. Oh well, I pull out my headphones, and quickly queue up my music.

I then look up, and see that applejack has been waiting patiently for me to finish, I nod, and she starts the final startup.

"Are you two ready?!" We all nod.

"Then come to the center line." We step up.

"Get ready!" And that Is when I requip my armor on, and pull my weapon out of my hammerspace. Everyone gasps as the armored battle dress appears on my body, and the blade appears in front of me, held with the point in the ground, me holding it with left hand above my right. The guards looked at me differently, but the raider, for lack of a better term, kept her eyes on mine, with a simple uncaring look. I was sure that she didn't like me.

The other guards looked at me with trained eyes, like they were actually guards. She looked at me like I was prey. she was not a guard pony. She was a criminal, or a war veteran. I was leaning toward the former.

They came at me two at once. I kicked the blade of the sword up into the way of the spear, the shield guard lunging at me with it. I deftly switched my hands to hold the blade correctly, and blocked an attack from the berserker pony, kicking at him as his hatchets slide down the length of my blade. I managed to knock him off balance, before being stabbed in the side, the spear sticking into my lower abdomen. The point was pulled out and I danced away, keeping an eye on the two in front of me, while seeing the raider standing in the back, waiting to attack. I had a feeling she wanted to have a proper dual, one-on-one.

I deflected the spear again, as I felt my wound being healed by the scabbard. It itched fiercely, but I managed to ignore it and keep my head. The berserker charged me, and I charged back. As we got close to each other, I side-stepped and swung the pommel into his muzzle, breaking something, the wet crack and blood flying telling everyone what happened. He fell to the ground in a daze, and before i could be attacked by anyone, I kicked him in the head, knocking him out.

The shield guard took the moment to try and stab me again, but I stumbled backwards and dodged it, pushing the spear away with a wack from my sword. I balanced again and ran towards the spearmare, and she dropped her weapon and pulled her short sword, blocking my blow with it. I swung around, trying to hit her legs, but she jumped, and realized that I was feigning, bringing up the sword to hit her in the air. She barely got the shield between us, blocking, and was pushed of balance,heavily stumbling with the giant shield in the way. She fell, releasing her hold on the shield, and tried to get back up quickly, but I rushed in, kneeing her face as she was coming up from her fall. She fell back down, and I stomped on her hand, breaking a few bones, before kicking her stomach, knocking the breath out of her. She lay on the ground, gasping for air and whimpering in pain, as i grabbed her, and drug her to the side of the arena.

"Stay here if you know what's good for you." Before turning back to the raider pony. She finally started to walk into the arena center.

"Here we are, you wanted to fight like this, lets fight." I then prepared to fight her.

The mare started off the attacks first, stepping forward and bringing her axe up and over in a power hit. I stepped aside, and was bringing my pommel into her gut, but she went from blade sticking in the ground, to swiping me with the body of the weapon. I was hit in the gut, and sent stumbling away, as she lunged at me like a spear, digging it into my stomach, winding me. I somehow managed to stay on my feet, but I was panting for air. I blocked another power attack, and gasped in a breath of air. I blocked another overhead blow, and shoved the axe out of my way to the left, and stepped into her guard, bringing the pommel up into her gut, making her step back, as I pulled m blade across her belly, making a large gash appear. I rammed my shoulder into her after, and pushed, shoving her back farther, into a wall. I attacked with a thrust, and she stepped out of the way, bringing the pommel of her poleaxe across my face, snapping my head to the side. I stepped backwards a few times, in time to dodge a sweep of her axe towards my feet.

I needed to end this, and I knew it. I just didn't see immediately how. Then a simple plan came to me. It might work, but it depended on how strong her axe really was. I went on the attack, swinging and swirling, making her go on the defensive. Each time she blocked my attack, it chipped a little wood off the handle of the two handed weapon. I kept on hacking away. When I finally felt it might be time, I went for the biggest power attack I could. I took my blade, and swept myself around in a circle, bringing the blade around with me. I put all of the momentum of my spin into the weapon, and out onto the blade, bringing it whirling around into the raiders axe. She blocked it how I had hoped, with the handle. If she had stepped away, she could have won, but she had sealed my win with this. I brought the blade as best I could into the handle, where I had been chipping away the wood with my attacks, and broke through the handle, leaving a massive gash on her body. She was knocked backwards by the blow, and looked at the two pieces of weapon in her hands. She grunted, and threw them down, and looked at me.

"Do you concede?" I asked. She nodded, and got down on her knees. I turned to Celestia and Luna. And I did the one thing any person in my place would do.

"ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED!!"

That got Luna laughing. Celestia just smirked, and stood to address the audience.

"Ponies, from this day forth, know that this human is to be treated with respect and friendship, as decreed by your princesses. Any who attempt to harm this female, in any way, shape, or form, will be punished. Human, tell everyone here your name, for all to hear, so they may remember your name and face."

"MY NAME IS CAMERON RUFF!"

"Thank you. Everyone, you may leave. Medics, get out here and help the wounded. Cameron, I would like to see you please. Also, girls, I would like to invite each of you to the ball that is happening tonight, at the castle. Rarity, I do expect to see your friends in some of your finest raiment."

"Of course your highness. I wouldn't have anything less than the best for my friends."

The girls leave, after Pinkie comes and gives me a nice big smooch on the lips, to which I return wholeheartedly, and Rarity starts to get everyponies preferences on how they want their dresses to look. I head over to the benches, grab my lunch, and head to see Celestia.

Author's Note

Hey, how are you guys doing. I hope that this is still to you peoples liking, as I do hope to keep this funny and entertaining at the same time. Also, don't expect to many pictures, as I don't like Fics that are cluttered up with pictures to describe everything. It takes away much of the imagination in a story. However, do expect me to try and get some mood music for fights and for chill chapters. Also, before anyone hates on the new weapon, it is so that she doesn't have to pull out her best weapons to fight everyday thugs and baddies. This way, she can just kick ass without having to swing around a heavy blade/cannon. She needs to keep some secrets. Next time, I tell the princesses what is happening, and we have a ball. I may or may not run into someone we all hate. I just wonder who?

Anyway, have a Jivin day!
