Doctor's Displacement
Chapter 7: Bloody Skirmish
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThe airship had arrived at the docks only to see dozens of other airships already there, most of them were covered in weapons and made out of a silvery metal. The most shocking feature was the massive cannon in the centre of each ship, Twilight smiled “These our mightiest airships built specifically to counter anti-magical weaponry by using magisteel that prevent the ships magic from being nullified.”
Whisper frowned “So what is the plan exactly?”
Twilight grimaced “You and I will be leading a series of aggressive strikes at key targets while Luster stays with the mages at the back to provide magical support. Still the initial skirmish will have you at the forefront with an ally of mine, she will be here shortly.”
Luster growled “Why are you sending her to the front lines but not me! Am I not capable enough!”
Twilight shook her head “It’s not that, it’s that you skills are not best suited to the front lines. Besides you have seen what Whisper is capable of, she was able to adapt to my power in very little time. I need her out there leading the charge.”
Endtime burst into the room and pointed to Whisper Wood “You are the one who beat Princess Twilight, I’m glad to working with another powerhouse.”
Luster looked at her in shock “How is there another Alicorn in here with us!”
Endtime frowned “I came about because of the timeline fracture that Starlight caused, those timelines collapsed into me. I am the Alicorn of Time and this war is my fault so I’m here to clean up my mess.”
Whisper growled “So you the reason I will have to kill!” She then turned to Twilight “Where is the force that I will be leading, I want to get this over with.”
Twilight nodded “I’ll take you there myself” she then turned to Luster with a smile “Could you please meet with the mages? I’ll discuss more of this with you later.”
Luster smiled sadly “Okay Princess but please don’t leave me in the dark about this.” Twilight smiled as she and her student parted ways, Whisper and Endtime standing by her side. Male and female members of the guard were carrying around magical swords, lances and crossbows around the massive docks. Crates of weapons and armour were strewn all over the place.
They soon arrived at an airship, Gallus flew down and saluted “Princess our ships are ready for war! Just say the word.”
Twilight nodded to Gallus “I need you to send this ship with Whisper and Endtime on board., I want you to cause some damage before retreating.”
Gallus saluted “Yes Princess” he then turned to Endtime and Whisper “Come this way.” Whisper and Endtime followed him onto the magisteel deck, guards all at the ready for combat. Gallus roared at the crew “Get ready for take off,we are going to launch a raid!” The crew scrambled to get the ship ready for flight.
Twilight was watching hoping that the show of force may just end this war before it truly begun. The ship took off and flew rapidly across the ocean, Whisper and Endtime struggled to keep their balance on the moving airship. Once it slowed down, Whisper groaned “I need a bucket.”
A bucket materialised in front of her, she immediately vomited into it and the conjured handkerchief to clean her face. She shook her head “So I can create items out of thin air somehow.” She then picked up the bucket and turned to Endtime who was trying to hold back her own vomit, Endtime nodded. Whisper passed her the bucket and she vomited into the bucket.
Whisper used a clean part of the handkerchief to clean up Endtime’s face before tossing it into the bucket. She then clicked her fingers causing it to disappear from existence, Endtime smiled “Thanks Whisper.”
Whisper growled “Don’t thank me, I am helping you because I need you down there with me!” The airship was hovering over multiple boats on the water, Whisper ran towards the edge and jumped onto the one of the boats underneath and crushing one of the Tigers in full steel armour underneath her boots.
The Captain of the Ship growled “Charge!” All fliers on the ship began flying down carrying those ground bound. Endtime blasted into dust before kicking another in half. Whisper snarled as she saw a pegasus mare cut in half by tiger’s axe, she punched a hole in the Tiger’s skull. She then looked down only to see two pictures next the bodies, one of the mare and her family. The other was of the Tiger and his family, she whispered as she turned back to the fray “War, it makes monsters of us all.” She ran through ripping out the tiger tossing his body onto the body of a griffon.
She leapt onto another ship, smashing a tiger’s head into another before cutting one in half with an axe. Whisper then felt a blade tear through her chest, she rolled her eyes as she kicked the foolish tiger before pulling the blade out. All the Tigers looked her in shock “What are you?!”
Her entire body glowed red with the same power she used against Twilight as she growled “I’m a monster and you are all going to die today!”
She began mercilessly cutting down the enemies around her, Endtime leapt to onto the ship only to see corpses everywhere “Wow you really did a number on them, now we need to head back.” Before they could get off the boat, more boats with tons of warriors materialised out of thin air, Endtime snarled “So they have their own type of magic!”
Whisper frowned “I have a plan but I’m not sure if doesn’t work then you need to escape.” Before Endtime could respond Whisper closed her eyes in concentration as she leapt off the boat.
Endtime shouted “Whisper are you crazy!” She was about to jump in when Whisper’s body shot out of the water, towering over the Tiger Armada that watched in shock. She picked up one of the massive warships and threw it destroying a massive portion of their forces.
The enemy forces retreated into the distance quickly, Whisper then reverted back to normal and landed on the boat “Maybe that will convince them to surrender.” She rubbed the back of her head as no-one even responded just looking at her in shock.
