The Lion Sion of Pride in Equestria

Prideful Revelations

Previous Chapter

The sun had risen, and every second that passed I felt better, I was able to walk in four legs without any problem, I was at the top of everything, it took me an hour or more to understand what was going on with me, the power that had been bestowed upon me, Sunshine, Starting from sunrise, my power begins to increase and I begin to grow larger, But my personality changes from my usual self to a prideful version of it, with the process reversing with the setting of the sun. In the daytime, My physical strength increases dramatically, and I'm able to radiate intense waves of light and heat is easily capable of melting metal and of course, my enemies.

My cutie mark was the first clue, but this morning everything was confirmed, which means that in a couple of hours I will not be able to stay with the ponies that I saved, as the heat that will emanate from my body will surely kill them.

After I released them the ponies decided to make me their leader until we got to Equestria, and it was an obvious decision, there was no one more fit and capable in the world for that mission.

“It will take us three weeks to a month to get out of this forest,” Blue Sky said, “The others are picking up everything we can use along the way,”

“Perfect, we'll have to wait for the sun to hide before we start moving,” I said watching the ponies move in the camp taking stuff for the trip.

“Why? Wouldn't it be better to move in the daytime with the light?” asked Blue Sky.

With a sigh, I turned to see her and said, “I don't owe you any explanation, but, my power, Sunshine, makes heatwaves radiate from my body, the longer the time passes, the more heat I radiate, if we start this trip during day my presence will eventually kill you all, is safer we move during the night.”

Blue sky looked at me and said, “No wonder everything's so hot out of nowhere, is that why your size doubled in the morning?”

“Indeed, now tell that to the other ponies,” I said as I walked into the woods, “I'll be back by nightfall, wait here.” and with a simple jump, I left the camp, getting a few miles away from it.

“That Stallion...” said Blue Sky when she saw the pony in one jump move out of the camp. “Guys, change of plans, we're leaving during the night, will wait for Mr No name to come back!"


I distanced myself a few miles from the camp, while I waited for the night to come, the hours passed, and the trees around me began to turn to ashes, and the hours continued passed until noon arrived, my body had grown even more and at 12:00 I felt something unmatched, The One!, I felt that my power could only be described or be defined as infinite during that minute, and the minute passed, and gradually I began to get weaker and weaker until night finally came.


The night had come, and I had realised my mistake, I tried to walk in the direction of the camp. I ended up find out that I don't know how to walk at least during the night, to walk a couple of meters. I had to concentrate all my might.

“This doesn't make sense! I was able to walk normally during the day! And now I'm back to moving like a toddler” I shouted as I walked like a toddler on my way to the camp, “The change I had in my personality was weird, I just felt pride and only pride, is that how Escanor felt?... At least I can defend myself during the day.” When I finished saying that, I remembered what I had done, I killed about thirty intelligent creatures, reminding that I started to vomit and shake, I know they deserved it, but still, it felt wrong for some reason, their blood, their bodies.

'Calm down, it was them or you, they wanted to enslave you, kill you or eat you, there was no other way to survive. ' I thought in the form of a mantra trying to calm me down.

Continuing with my pathetic attempt to walk back to the camp, AKA toddler walk, I came to the conclusion that at this rate it would take me forever to get back to the camp, every two minutes I stumbled upon something, and there was the possibility of something killing me during the night, even a bunny could kill me right now, cause I still have no idea on how to control a quadruped body..., while walking I heard some noises in some bushes.

'Not again... 'I thought as I tried to create a plan to escape, “I haven't had a bath in three days, so my taste is ruined!”

“Good to know, look at you, back to normal pony size, hehe.” said a familiar voice, Blue Sky came together with other ponies, “You were taking a long time, so we started a search for you, what happened to you?”

“Would you believe me if I told you I don't know how to walk properly at night? ,” I said with a smile full of shame, “But that will change, I hope...”

“You know I believe you, with what happened this morning, anything is possible with you,” Blue Sky said among snickers, “Boys carry him back to camp,” two pegasuses came up and took me.

As they took me to the camp flying, I decided to ask the two pegasuses carrying me their names and thinking about names, I couldn't stay nameless, Escanor was the right name, and I felt identified with the title, perhaps I should honour my favourite anime character by taking his name, you know what?, fuck it, ill be Escanor, at least until I remember my real name.

“So... what's your name, guys?” I asked the pegasus, they were both almost identical, black fur with a blue line on the head, the only difference was in their Cutie Marks, The cutie mark of the pegasus on the left was a cloud with a shield, and the one on the right was lightning with a sword.

“Nimbus Shield, sir!” answered the pegasus on the left.

“Thunder Sword, sir!” answered the Pegasus on the right.

“My name is Escanor,” I said with a smile as I thought, 'Where does that 'Sir' thingy come from?, I'm not older than them. , '

“You remembered your name! Awesome!!, it's pretty weird name though, but you're weird, so I guess it suits you,” said Blue Sky flying in front of us.

“Thank you, I guess, how long before we get to the camp?” I said as I thought, 'From my perspective all your names are strange, '

"Ten minutes, SIR!" shouted Nimbus Shield.

"Thanks..." I replied with a bit of pain in my ears, wondering why this two behave like soldiers.

"You're welcome, Sir!" said Nimbus Shield.


In the castle of the two sisters, Celestia was walking back and forth, Luna was worried, so she approached her sister and asked, "What's wrong with thee, sister? Didst something wrong befall upon us? wast those Griffins!?"

Celestia looked at her sister and worried she said, “I hath lost mine control ov'r the Sun dear sister, I knoweth not what hath happened, but yesterday something tore off mine control ov'r the Sun,”

Luna surprised shouted using the royal voice, “Impossible! Does it mean that thee Sun will not rise anymore?!”

Celestia sighed and said, “No, the sun keepeth rising just slower, at the same time, but lest I worried.”

Luna approached and hugged her sister with determination, “Don't worry, we'll findeth the ruffian and we'll maketh that gent payeth for stealing thee Sun sister! we swear Sister!”


We had arrived at the camp, the ponies were ready to start the journey back to their country, Blue Sky informed them that I had difficulty moving during the night and the ponies offered to carry me, even though I refused the offer, I needed to learn how to walk correctly, I couldn't be useless half the day, I refuse!.

We started our journey; the Pegasus flew to the front giving us information about what was waiting for us on the way, while in the back I went with Blue Sky, walking more and more efficiently.

“Are you sure you don't want me to carry you?” asked Blue Sky seeing how slow I was going.

“Nope, I've mastered the art of not falling, now I just need to improve my speed,” I said proudly, It took me three hours, but I was finally able to walk almost normally.

The ponies that were in the front had to stop to wait or rest every half hour, to wait for me, nobody mocked me for my walking speed, or my skill on it, I think it's because I saved them, Blue Sky stayed with me all the time, while the twins flew over me ready to defend me, it was weird.

"I correct myself, at this pace, it'll take over a year to get out of here..." said Blue Sky.
