Last of Earth

This....this royal asshole was NOT making me bow. NO WAY! After all she did to me, HELL NO! just NO! My rage finally spilled over and I smacked her across the face. She looked stunned as my hand left a bright red imprint on her cheek. I cracked my knuckles and popped my neck in anticipation of the up-coming revenge session I had planned.

"That was very unnecessary." The white alicorn said.

"Screw you. That's just the beginning." I replied.

"Everypony, just calm down. Atom, I know you're upset but could you withhold beating one of our national leaders into paste for just a bit longer till we understand the situation." Cadence said.

I stepped back and growled at her. However, I kept my anger in-check after the smack. Felt pretty good hitting royalty.

"Now, I seem to be lacking the details of why you put Atom here in cell. Explain if you will auntie." Cadence asked.

After a lengthy explanation of how I got here and what not (from big white bitches point of view), I finally learned the name's of the alicorns in the room. The big white one was called 'Celestia' or some idiotic name like that, while the dark blue one who I had flipped off was called Luna. The guard that I had kicked in the chest was 'Shining armor'. I rolled my eyes at the name. geez, do these guys ever have normal names?

" If that's all, I would like to know what will happen to him now." Cadence asked.

" Since he attacked a member of the royal guard and also me and my sister, I could have him killed. But I have an offer. If Atom would go with my student Twilight and learn about the magic of friendship then I shall lay off the death penalty."

" uhhhh. what? I'm sorry, but do I even get a say in what happens?" Twilight spoke up.

" No Twilight, I'm sorry. But if he chooses to accept my offer then we may work something out to you're advantage." Celestia said. she turned back to me. " Do you accept?" she asked.

"As long as I get a roof over my head I'll be fine with whatever." I replied

"Good, now that that is settled, Twilight, I here by release Atom into you're custody. You are to learn as much as you can about him but at the same time teach him friendship. If he does something that we all regret, I will have no choice but to put him to death. You would have to report it to me first though." Celestia said.

" Uhhh, I don't mean to be rude, but if I come to ponyville with a huge armored alien walking behind me, there might be a slight case of mass hysteria." Twilight responded.

"Hmmmmm, We think we have a solution for that." A new voice broke in.

Out of the shadows stepped out Luna. Strange I didn't detect her on my motion trackers.

" I just hope it doesn't hurt our new friend to much." she said as she advanced on me with her horn glowing.

"Now hold on just a min AUGHH!" she tapped my helmet.

Instant pain wracked my body. It was if I was being formed into something else. I felt myself grow smaller, less bulky. I also felt something start poking the inside of my helmet. I tore it off with my hands....no, they were not hands anymore. They looked like hooves. The pain started to lessen and I was able to crack open my eyes. No longer was I towering above the two princesses, instead they looked down on me. I again felt something on my head and reached up with a hoof to touch whatever it was. As soon as I grazed whatever it was I felt myself shudder as a new feeling swept through me. It was ice cold but yet pleasantly warm at the same time, I didn't dwell on it much for I turned to the now smirking princesses and yelled at them.

"WHAT THE HAY HAVE YOU DONE TO ME! WAIT, WHAT THE HAY!? BUCK! I MEEN BUCK!" I continued to try and swear but was only able to come up with a few swears.

"hmmmm. Apparently, turning him into a unicorn means he can only swear the way a pony swears. Interesting." Luna whispered to herself.

"YOU TURNED ME INTO A BUCKING HORSE? AND WHERE IS MY ARMOR! " I yelled again.

"Please calm your-self. This was the only way you could go with my student without causing a panic. For you're armor, If you look down at you're right hoof, you will notice that you still retain the piece of armor that you had before. You only need to think about your-self in the armor to activate it. I would suggest having Twilight work with you on you're transformations back into what you call a 'human'." Celestia said.

I grabbed my helmet from where I had tossed it and tried to control my Nano-tech inside it. I saw shadows as my apparent 'horn' lit up. The helmet disintegrated and the Nano-tech swept back into my right hoof. Celestia made her horn glow and a mirror appeared before me. I looked at myself as a pony and decided I wasn't that bad looking. I was a coal black with silver streaks running down my mane and tail. My eye's as well where silver. And on my rump was a tattoo looking thing of a skull faced helmet in front of a shield with two swords crossed behind the skull helmet. Not a bad design. I also noticed that my side-arm was still attached to me by the magnetic holster on my belt as well as my katana and pack.

" The hay is this?" I asked pointing at the mark on my rump.

Cadence spoke up. "It's you're cutie mark. It tells you what you're special talents are. Although I have no idea what your's means." She said.

I shrugged and looked back at Celestia. "You said something about me being able to turn back into my original form? How?" I asked.

" It's not very complected. Like with you're armor, you just think about your-self being Human again and you're magic will turn you back into a Human."

I scoffed. " There's no such thing as magic." I stated.

Celestia just smiled. "Of course you believe that. Anyway. It is getting late and if you would like to see you're new home town I suggest getting onto the train before it leaves." She said.

" Of course you're highness." Twilight said with a bow. "We will leave as soon as possible."

I snorted and just turned to leave.

Twilight and Cadence followed me out the as I opened the doors. Outside I heard a few whimpers and turned to see the guards huddled in a corner. One of them noticed I didn't have my armor on anymore and started to walk towards me.

"Hey metal head, I see you aren't so tough without that armor. What's the matter? Our princess give you a whooping?" He asked in a snarky tone.

"Girls, excuse me for a moment." I said and I reached behind my shoulder's and grasped my katana in my mouth. I slowly with-drew it and held it in the light. Blood was still dried to it but it still gave off an ominous shine. I lunged forward and slashed at the guard with precise aim.

"AHHH!! PLEASE NO!!..... hey! I'm alive! you missed me!" The guard said as I slid my sword back into its case.

The guard started to laugh and I waited for a second or so before I glanced down at his breastplate. He noticed my stare and looked down as well. The breastplate fell to the ground with a thud as the guard suddenly transformed from the white pony he was, into a pink and purple stallion.

He tried to put the plate back on before his other guardsmen could notice, but the straps that held it on had been cut. I heard snickering from the corner and turned to find most of the guards turning blue from holding in laughter.

"So that's why your always wearing the armor broadsword. Because your colored like a mare!" One of the guards shouted.

At once the guards let out all their laughter at the poor stallion. He in question started to gallop down the hall. His friends laughs following him. I turned back to Cadence and Twi and found them snickering as well.

I rolled my eyes and thanked Cadence for helping me out.

"It was nothing." She said. " You two better hurry though.The train leaves in ten minutes." I again thanked her before I followed Twilight out of the castle and into the fast approaching night to where a new 'home' awaited me.

*Authors note.

okay! finally done. Sorry if this chapter feels a bit rushed, but I need to get this chapter over with before I can start writing in better stuff. xD I have big plans for chapters coming up. Anyway, constructive criticism always welcome as well as new ideas in the comments. (And for those of you who were disappointed at the lack of a Celestia beating, don't worry. I have a HUGE thing planned for that.)
