I dodge left and grab the throat of one of Sombra's minions. I toss him into a group of his fellows, and run them through with my arm blade. I then grab the sword of one of my attackers, and turn and stab a unicorn behind me. I then rip his horn off, and stab the earth pony who I took the sword from. I take the horn and sword out, and toss the sword into a Pegasus who is flying at me. Suddenly, my world goes white, and I am back in Ponyville proper.

Now, how I got there, is interesting.

The day started just fine. I was in my forge, thinking about what weapon to make to replace the sword of Artorias.

I had a few ideas, but nothing definite.

Then I think of LOTR, and Aragorns sword, Anduril. So, I decide to make it.

I won't go into the two day long process. But, I had Spike help me forge it, as I like him, he's a cool dude. He was especially helpful since he started working with Ash at his forge. He was putting good muscle on.

Of course, he wanted to test the blade, try it out on some practice dummies, so we did. The blade was well balanced, and the enchantments to help it be harder to break held well. Spike could strike it with a good sized rock, about the size of a beach ball, at incline, and it wouldnt break.

Spike had left, gone to the library to help Twilight and Tophreltes with something. I was minding my own business. And then suddenly, I see white. Pure white. When my vision comes too, I am falling, over what looks to be a battlefield.

I see a Pegasus nearby, and angle towards it. I yell in warning, before slamming into it. I see that this Pegasus is covered in armor that is black, with gray and red pieces mixed in. Its eyes are glowing green.

Immediately, the Pegasus starts to try and stab me with a dagger he has in hand. I immediately stabbed him first with my crystal arm, shooting it into his arm, through his neck, and into his skull.

We then started to drop. As I fell with the body, I tossed it away, and made my crystal arm bigger and heavier, a giant hammerfist. Slamming into the ground, I landed on top of a unicorn in black armor.

Summoning a set of armor, the Wardens armor from For Honor (AU: For Honor is so cool, and great fun.)

I pulled put Anduril. I swing it down, and chopped off the arms of one of the ponies running at me. I move right, block a sword strike, and punch the offending pony in the chest, breaking his ribs, and sending shards of crystal into his chest.

Blocking behind, I dance around and let the next pony about to attack stab his comrade behind me. Stepping back, a downward swing passes in front of me. I stab out left with Anduril, and right with my crystal arm, impaling two ponies.

Then I hear some voices. Mainly one voice, yelling a battlecry.

A rainbow appears to obliterate the head of the pony charging me. As the Red mist fades, I see Rainbow Dash stand up. Turning to me, we both are unbothered by the invading army. Rainbow speaks first.

"Whoever you are, you pretty good. But dont think that I'll let some Sombra scum beat me." I chuckle.

"Rainbow, what gave you the impression I'm going to fight you?" I laugh. Rainbow gets irritated, and launches at me. I grab her as she stabs me.

"Ah, fuck! Damn Rainbow, let me fucking talk first. I'm not part of Sombras bitch club." I say, still holding her. I feel something funny in my hand as I hold her, and take a look.

I see Rainbow has a metal wing.

"Rainbow, who did this?" I say calmly. I move her away, her sword pulling out. She looks at me, her eyes filled with worry, her face saying she was scared, her body telling me she was tired.

"S-Sombra." She says. I nod. My wound is healing, thanks to Dante's healing power, and the Excaliburs sheath. I hear something above us, and look to see a large boulder falling towards us.

As I get ready to slash it apart, I see two ponies run and jump above us, before tearing into the giant stone like it was tissue paper. The two land, and turn to us. One is Pinkie Pie, the other is a pony with purple hair, and a dark grey coat. I wave.

"Hello Pinkamena." She looks at me, and sees I'm holding Dash. She pulls a knife off her belt, and holds it ready.

"Let go of General Dash, Sombra scum." She says, deadpan, but still conveying anger. The other pony pulls two hammers off her belt, and prepares herself. I let Rainbow go, and just turn away to look at the battlefield.

I hear from behind me something move, and I just use my crystal arm, and move it behind my back, and farther than any chicken wing would go, past dislocating the shoulder, and twist my hand around farther than it should, and catch the knife Pinkie was charging me with. Pulling it and her around, I see the knife.

"Let go." I say nicely. She stops struggling, and lets go. I look at the knife.

Its the Vorpal Blade, the same blade I made for my Pinkie. I nod, and hand it back. I then walk past her, and towards where I saw Sombra. As I move towards him, he sees me, and sends his soldiers at me.

They rush me, and I put my sword away.

I dodge left and grab the throat of one of Sombra's minions. I toss him into a group of his fellows, and then run them through with my arm blade. I then grab the sword of one of my attackers, and turn and stab a unicorn behind me. I then rip his horn off, and stab the earth pony who I took the sword from. I takd the horn and sword out, and throw the sword into a Pegasus who is flying at me.

I run forward, and turn into my Howler form, grabbing onto the spire of crystal that Sombra made for himself to stand on. Climbing quickly, I feel myself start to tingle. My vision begins to blur, just as I reach him, and grab his skull, before my entire vision turns white.

The next thing I see, is Sombra in my grip, and a forest around me, and a huge amount of what looks like humanoid insects. And they are ugly too. The cockroaches from Tera-Formers were better looking than these things. One of the bugs comes forwards, and looks at me, before looking at whats in my grip.

"What are you? I have never seen any creature like you before. And how do you have Sombra when he is already dead, by my hand?" I just stare at her.

I then bring the arm I am holding Sombra's head in up towards her, before tightening my grip. He starts to scream, before finally, his head explodes in my grip. I just laugh. The bug lady gets angry.

"Do you know who I am, creature? I am Chrysalis, Queen of the changlings, and conquerer of Equestria." I just continue to laugh, making her angrier.

"Drones, capture this creature, so that we may take its form. It clearly is much stronger than we thought.

I just give a big Howler grin, my teeth showing, and lawl my toungue out, letting my glowing mouth and drool show. The drones come at me, and the fight starts.

I grab a changling by the horn, and rip it off, then toss him into the horn of another, before stabbing them both with the horn. Kicking them away, I turn to another changling, grab his arm, and use him as a makeshift club to beat the others with. When his exoskeleton is so cracked and his dark green blow is pouring out of holes in it, I toss him at a tree, and he is impaled by several branches, his blood soaking the forest floor.

I grab another changling, and tear him in half, using his torn body to slap away three changlings. As I toss away the body parts, I suddenly sieze up, my body unable to move. From the corner of my vision, I see Chrysalis come into view.

"You wothless creature, killing my children. If I didnt want your form for my armies, I would drain your love right now and kill you. Drones, grab him. We'll take him with us, when we go to find Zecoras little hidden village. Two of you, take your diguises." And with that, two changlings turn into Rainbow and Rarity. And Chrysalis turns into Applejack. When she does, I get angry, and start to work my arms magic, to draw in the paralysis spell on me into it. I do it slowly, so as to not draw attention.

I am pulled along by two drones, abd we walk for about thirty minutes. Finally, I hear noises, foals and ponies playing and going about. Chrysalis stops the rest of us, and then she and the two disguised changlings run out, yelling about how Ponyville was attacked by changlings.

But after that, the rest of the magic paralysing me is gone, and I spring into action, tearing apart the two drones holding me, and tossing bodies around, one going through the bushes that Chrysalis went through.

After that, the other drones all charge and tackle me, and I slash throats, rip horns, and sever limbs and wings, as we tumble through the bushes the three changlings have gone through.

As I come out, I toss the changling that I just killed off me, and run at Rainbow, who looks scared. I just reach her, ram her onto the ground, and grab her head. I then place a foot on her chest, and pull her head, ripping it off.

I toss it at Rarity, whocatches it, and then screams, before running at her, grabbing her horn, ripping it off, and then stabbing her in the breast, pulling down and eviscerating her. Both Rainbow and Rarity turn back into changlings after they die. I turn to Applejack, who is furious. Then she looks behind me and smiles.

I turn, and see hundreds more changling drones coming from the sky. I turn back, and look past Applejack, and see Twilight, Zecora, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, and other ponies from around Ponyville. Twilight is staring at me wide eyed, and I see Spike, standing next to her. Both of them have some sort of facepaint on. Spike saw me, and I nod. He nods back, and grabs Twilights hand, before saying they need to go.

Chrysalis finally changes back to her true form, and laughs.

"You think you have won, creature? I have an army. And I also have finally found your little village, Zecora. It has taken me some time to do so." She turned towards Zecora, and the zebra shaman is angry, gritting her teeth. I just attack, and go straight for Chrysalis. The drones dive for the other ponies in the area, and a battle starts. I am fighting Chrysalis, and I see from the corner of my eye, Zecora moving around to get behind Chrysalis while she is distracted. I dont see Twilight and Spike, so they must have left for something. I just keep fighting Chrysalis.

Chrysalis keeps trying to fire paralysis spells at me, but since I now have a much better understanding of the spell from having absorbed it, I easily absorb the blasts. She then goes feral on me, slashing at me with claws she grew. I just grab her arm, and stab her in the stomach with my crystal blade. I then pour the absorbed magic back into her, and she is immediately clamped up, curling into a ball so tight, she almost was a basketball. She screamed the entire time, until her voice was silenced.

I walked up to her slowly, and transformed back into my human form. Instantly, everything on the battlefield turned and pointed their weapons at me.

"Chrysalis, for the imprisonment of Equestrian, Griffin, Yak, and other beings, and the murder of both Princess Celestia Solare, and Luna Nocturne, you have been sentenced to death. Do you have any last words?" I say, before taking the paralysis off her throat and head.

"I did it for my children, so they wouldnt starve. If that is wrong, then justice has been tainted." I shake my head.

"Justice isnt fair. It isnt nice. Also, this is still the Justice you think of, because being a parent doesn't mean you can just invade, murder, and kill other countries and nations. My world is a perfect example. We uaed a bomb that killed billions, two of them, to stop a war, because some asshole thought that one race was superior over every other race. So your sense of justice, is what I am using. Since you have no more words, I will now give out your full sentence. For your crimes against multiple nations, you have been sentenced to death. Your army will disband, and work as slaves for four years, rebuilding the places they destroyed with no pay. After those four years, they will then work on a way to self sustain. Goodbye, Chrysalis." I say, before taking Anduril off my back, and cutting her in half.

Then my vision goes white, and the next thing I see, is another forest, but it's night. I hear Timberwolves howling in the distance. I howl back and get answers in return.

"Two beings, one Dragon, and one Pony, are currently in the forest." I howl a response order.

"Do not attack them. Follow them, chase them, but do not attack. I will be there shortly." I then change into my OG Howler form, and run through the Everfree towards the location of Twilight and Spike.

Reaching them, I see them heading across a stone bridge, towards a night theme castle. I am joined by a large, old, mossy Timberwolf, made of hard black oak.

"Moss, who owns that castle?" I ask him. This champion blessing that allows me to control the Timberwolves is amazing.

"Nightmare Moon." he says. I nod.

"Can you take me to where you all first saw the two beings? They are my friends, and I need to meet with them." Moss nods, and I transform into the OG Howler again, before running through the forest with him. For being almost two hundred, Moss can still book it when he wants to.

We make it to the spot, and I see the map table from the library sitting in the clearing. I walk up to it, and take a look. I see the map is different, with Canterlot being gone, and the Everfree being half the size. I shake my head.

"Twilight can tell me when they get back. Hey Moss, can you have some Timberwolves watch the entrance to the forest?" He nods, and howls the orders. A few moments later, a howl replies, saying that Nightmare Moon, some soldiers, and the two beings from before had just entered. I decided to play a game.

I turn into my were Howler form, and take off into the woods, Moss running beside me. Reaching Nightmare and Twilight, Nightmares soldiers and guards around, I grin.

"Moss, we're going to play a game. Its called Hunt. The rules, dont get caught, and catch as many guards as possible, only using stealth. Got it?" Moss growls an affirmative. He's a big boy, literally as tall as an SUV. If he were to stand next to Applejacks Tacoma, he'd be slightly taller.

Course, I'm glowing, so I am also handicapped.

We start the game by my laughter, echoing throughout the forest. Twilight and Spike look around at the sound, and they both grin. Though, now that I look, Spike is wrapped in chains, and has a mask that makes him look like Hannibal Lecter.

Spike thrashed his chains, and I go for the grab. I take a guard near the back, holding the rear. Moss goes for one slightly more forward, closer to Spike, who had nopony looking at him for a second. Twilight says something.

"Hey, Rainbow, what rank are you?" One of the guards, right next to her answers.

"Captain of the Nightguard. Why?" I hear Rainbows angry rasp say. Twilight just looks around, then shrugs with a smug grin on her face.

"Oh, nothing. I wonder what creature made that laugh though. Do you know if any creatures came up since your rule Princess Nightmare?" Nightmare Moon, who looks smoking hot btw, says no. I just proceed to grab three guards from above, and pull them into the tree tops.

Spike noticed, and starts to chuckle. One of the guards smacks him in the head with a spear, and Moss grabs four, tossing them into the forest with nary a peep from them. I crawl around, and laugh again, much closer to the group. Much, closer. I grab the guard who hit Spike, and pull him into the woods, before laughing like a maniac.

Twilight and the group have finally made it to the clearing with the map.

"Well, I'm sorry to say, but I'll be needing Spike back now. My hisbands here, and judging by the missing guard, hecs not happy." Spike laughs, and Twilight giggles. Nightmare and Dash whip around, and see the guard gone, and Spike by himself.

I come out the forest on top of the map, and grin. I laugh, and Nightmare and Rainbow whip around to face me. I stand there, laughing. Twilight looks, and smiles.

"Took you long enough to find us." I laugh more. I hop off the map, and walk up to Nightmare Moon. I transform back, and am still laughing. I then grab Nightmare Moons shoulder, and pull the demon possesing Luna out.

She screams as I do so, and when I am done, I have Nightmare Moon in my hand, with Luna on the ground, panting and groaning in pain. I just take Nightmare Moon, and put her in Anduril. My sword should be able to hold her.

Twilight sighs, and comes and gives me a kiss. I return it. Then I go to Spike, and free him. After that, I turn to Rainbow, and say.

"Help Luna back to the castle. She'll know what to do from there." And turn back to Twilight as she moves to the map. She lights her horn, and charges magic into the map. A glowing portal shaped like a bell appears over it, and she and Spike are sucked inside. I just am left behind, before finding myself tingle, and vision blurring.

Just before my vision goes white, I see Moss running over to me, and touching my hand to him.

Next thing I see is Tirek raging through the forest. I just rush him, and I see Moss looking at the forest, the trees burning.

I rush Tirek, pulling out Excalibur. Reaching him, I climb his body till I reach his head. I then stab Excalibur into his skull, and pour my bodies energy into it. Tireks body glows, before exploding.

As I head for the ground, I see Moss doing something. He looked to be absorbing the tree ash from the forest. I felt a tingle in my body, and my vision blurred.

I quickly reached Moss, before my vision went white.

After that, the next thing I see is Sweet Apple Acres, but it's being torn up, as is the rest of the forest. I look around, and see the map table off in the distance. Near it, a large bulldozer like contraption, that just grips the trees, and rips them up.

I run towards it, as I see a bright flash from the map table. Ignoring it, I reach the bulldozer, and see two pony twins driving it. I don't even hesitate, they're destroying my wife's orchard. I go up to them, and stab one through the back of his head.

The other one sees this, and cries out.

"Flam!" He gets angry, and charges his horn, and fires his spell. Point blank. I don't have time to do anything.

But Moss did. He jumped between us.

The spell hits him, and he is immediately set on fire. His body burns quickly, and he is ash moments later.

I scream in rage, and grab the pony. I rip him in two, and toss him away. I then go over to Moss's ashes.

Sinking down beside them, I cry. He was an old wolf, almost as old as the princesses. I cry.

But, I then see a glow from the ash. Digging through, I find something amazing. His heart. I pick it up reverently, and hold it close. I feel myself tingle, and my vision goes fuzzy. I stand, and put the heart into my hammerspace. I pull out Anduril, and hear Nightmare screaming at me from it. Then my vision goes white.

The next thing I see, is barren landscape, wind blowing heavily. I look behind me, and see three people. Spike, Twilight, and a new pony.

"Where are we?!" She yells at Twilight. I speak.

"We are in the present. The same time you left the castle, this is that time." She looks at me, as does Twilight, who smiles sadly.

"Hey Cameron. How have you been?" I chuckle.

"Busy. Killed Sombra in the first timeline, Chrysalis in the second, trapped Nightmare Moon and freed Luna in the third, killed Tirek, and two pony brothers. They also killed Moss, so I tore the last pony bro apart." She nods. Then Brutalight comes out.

"So, Starlight, why the fuck did you do this? And how do we fix it?" Starlight is confused.

"Who are you, and what happened to you?" She asks, pointing to me then Twilight. I just huff.

"I'm about to be your executioner if you don't tell us why your doing this." I say. She just smirks, and it pissed me off.

"Oh yeah! I highly doubt that." Brutalight and Spike smile. I just yell, and then quickly transform into my Howler form, and rush her, picking her up by the throat.

Her eyes are wide, huge, terrified. She grabs at my hand holding her. She struggles. I just look to Twi.

"So, will you answer the fucking question now? Why are you doing this?" She just squeaks, and I let her go. She scrabbles away, coughing and holding her throat.

"I'll tell you! Please don't hurt me?! I'm sorry!" She says, starting to curl up. I transform out, and walk to her slowly. She flinches away from me, pushing herself against the map table.

I slowly approach, and she starts kicking at me.

"No, please, don't hurt me!" She cries. I just crouch, and hug her. She just tenses up, and then breaks down, crying into my arms as she hugs me.

We stay that way, Starlight saying sorry over and over, until she finally calms down.

"Show us." I say calmly, and Twilight and Spike join us, touching my shoulder, and giving Starlight a sympathetic look. Starlight nods, and her horn lights up.

The next thing I see, is a small town. Nearby, the houses are rundown, shoddy. I look around and see a young Starlight Glimmer nearby. She looks to be running, and she goes up to a house.

The door is answered by a stallion in a grubby t-shirt and underwear. I could smell his filth from where we stood, and gagged. Starlight was grabned, and tossed inside by the stallion.

"If he raped you, I don't care how the future changes, he dies now." I say, looking to Starlight. She shakes her head.

"No. But this is where my hatred begins." She says.

A few hours later, Starlight comes out the house, her eyes red and puffy, and she is holding her left arm as if it hurts. I have a feeling it's broken. Starlight shifts and grabs her left arm, and the feeling is practically confirmed.

Young Starlight heads towards town, and towards the store. Heading in, we hear a voice call her.

"Starlight!" A young colt, with Sunset Shimmers colors, comes up to her.

"Hey Starlight, what are you doing here?" Starlight looked nervous.

"Daddy needed groceries, so he sent me." She says. The young colt looks angry.

"Well the stupid cock-sleeve should get his own groceries." I immediately liked this kid. Starlight looked worried, scared.

"Sunburst no!" She says. Sunburst just shakes his head.

"Well that's what he is. He doesn't deserve to have you as a daughter, he doesn't even deserve to have a life. He beats you, burns you, and treats you like crap! Run away!" He says. I love this kid, he's smart.

"He loves you." I whisper to Starlight, and she jumps.

"No, he doesnt. He just cared because I was useful." She says, and just turns away, refusing to hear more. I shrug.

Young Starlight shakes her head.

"No, I cant! No!" Sunburst sighs.

"Fine. What did you need?" He asks. Starlight and him go through the store, and get the food. Though, I also see multiple pack's of beer, really cheap shit.

Starlight and Sunburst buy the groceries, and are given the beer too. I just gawk, but don't say anything, as we're supposed to be silent.

They finish, and they start to take the food back to her house. We follow behind, watching. They talk as they walk, and it goes well.

As they walk, I see a storm ditch that was full. They dont. I just shrug, they'll miss it. They didnt. Starlight walked a little to close.

She immediately started to fall, and lost most of the groceries as she tried to keep balance. Stuff broke, and she fell. But Sunburst lit his horn, and stopped her, the rest of the groceries, and his groceries, from falling. He then strained, and lifted all of them up, and put them on the ground, gently.

As he did, his shoulder and hips glowed, and a cutie mark appeared. He stopped glowing in all his body parts, and he looked to his arm. Seeing his cutie mark, he got elated, and grabbed Starlights none broken arm, and ran to his house. He started to yell that he got his cutie mark, and his parents and every neighbor in earshot of his yells came and congratulated him.

They then had a party to celebrate, and Sunburst and Starlight had fun.

But later that night, Starlight had to go home.

She arrives, and the stallion from before was absolutely livid. He punched her in the fave, and tossed her inside, where I saw her hit a table, and then he slammed the door. Starlight finally spoke.

"After that, I went the next day to see Sunburst, but his parents told me he didn't want to see me, a blank flank, anymore. He was shipped off to Celestias school for gifted unicorns. He never spoke to me again, never sent letters, never remembered me." I laugh.

"Bitch, he absolutely loved you. He had a massive crush. Bigger than this dope and Rarity." I say, pointing to Spike. He looks indignant, and Twilight just snorts, and tries to hold her laugh. She failed.

Starlight looks at me, and I continue.

"And honetly, I bet your dad kept whatever letters he sent, because he knew that the kid liked you, and hated him. His parents didn't like you, that's why they said that. He loved you. Twilight, you think you can look somebody up when we get back?" She nods.

"I actually remember hearing that a stallion by the name Sunburst became one of the head mages, and was sent to the crystal empire. He was succesful, and from the pjctures of him, good looking too." She says, getting fake dreamy eyes

"What, and I'm chopped liver?" I say, sarcastically. She giggles. I just give her a quick peck. Starlight is just looking at us, her eyes teary, hope in them.

"So, he never forgot about me?" I shake my head.

"Probably not. I mean, over a long time, maybe, but if you talked to him again, I bet he would instantly remember you."

She is crying. Spike was a little confused though.

"Wait, but we didn't learn why she hates cutie marks and friendship though?" I nod.

"We did. Sunburst got his cutie mark, and his parents told her that since she didn't have one, he didnt care about her anymore. Therefore, she equated cutie marks to the end of her firendship, and the continuing of her suffering. Am I wrong?" I ask. Starlight looks at me, and shakes her head. Twilight takes over.

"As Cameron said, he cared. He most likely still does. Friendship doesn't end because someone moves away, or doesn't have a cutie mark. My three daughters are a perfect example. They all didn't have cutie marks, but they were still the best of friends. Come with us, and we can show you what friendship truly is." She says, and holds her hand out to Starlight. Starlight takes it, and we go through the time portal again.

The next thing I see, is my wives, smiling and happy.

Author's Note

Done. This actually was shorter than I thought it would be. I thought it would be in the 8K range, but it's not. I hope you all like it, and have a Jivin Day!
