//-------------------------------------------------------// America in MLP -by Aramisxx- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// A New World ( rewrite ) //-------------------------------------------------------// A New World ( rewrite ) The fighting and disagreements between tribes, city-states, Countries and global super powers never changes, war never changes. In the years of the Second Korean War America destroyed North Korea either with direct bombing of the radiation cased by said bombs, but at the coast of some of its own. So, to try and protect the American people, President Aramis had his best and brightest work on a sort of portal technology. After a few months they finally managed a stable, working portal. President Aramis had to go to the new world and there, we will rebuild The United states of America. 179,323,175 Americans evacuated to the new world free of harmful radiation, and to our knowledge free of oppression. After, what was left of Old America is all moved to the new world Except a single star-spangled banner and a civil war era cannon. Everyone we accounted for is safe and sound and they’re new homes are build and with that, the portal shuts down. For awhile people were struggling to get their feet moving because the shock of being in a new world will do that for ya and also the fact that some of the radiation came with them so they’ll have to find some way of dealing with that in the future but still many people are badly shaken up. Currently we see 4 party’s fight for control of the United States 1 is called America’s Democratic Party, another is called America’s liberation front, 1 is America first party party, and the last one is called the American Army junta The junta has control of 60% population, the ADP has 30% The ALF has 5% The AFP has 5% President Aramis is in charge of the AFP so he has much work to do to regain majority vote if he hopes to bring back America to greatness. President Aramis worked hard and long hours campaigning and actually working signing off on buildings and infrastructure he is hopeful in 2 years he will have the people’s love and respect again after his blunder. For now hire some people to help him and eventually retake the office. (Time-skip 2 years later ) Much time has past and by some luck Aramis managed to gather 5% more support and effectively ban communism for good so now 10% and soon he will have more. Jan 8 1:00 PM 1007 Aramis sent out an exploration team to see what is around them. First exploration report: Soldiers from the scout party I sent out a few days ago have returned to New Washington to rely their reports. “ Luckily sir, there’s not many differences with this world and earth. We can still breath, and the water is drinkable. We are apparently near a coast and the landscape is quite flat. with some little hills scattered about. However what our scouts found next was enough to send even these hardened soldiers into a state of pure shock. Where there should be nothing but wilderness, an artificial road was discovered at the north of our position there is no doubt that something built this. No sight of life be it civilized or not. But the team has asked to continue up the road to see if they can find an alien city. And to the surprise of no one request was granted. After awhile we received a report. First contact: “ did we take New York in our bags, when we left earth? Of course not it got nuked. Alert high command cause I think we have a situation here. “ The patrol that went on south east of our position have encountered an almost identical copy of manhattan, but it’s inhabited by equines and griffons of different colors and other stuff. So the question now was what do we do next? For Aramis this was a golden opportunity, and quickly went out to obtain trust of the natives and hopefully get more land for America to grow. Soon he sets off to visit manehattan, then he reads the world news paper. Settling down: Despite this entire thing being very confusing and scary for both human and pony we have managed to send a representative of Congress to meet with the leader of these lands a mr jet set. Aramis immediately went on the boat back home to meet mr jet set as in a few days the 3 party’s will be meeting jet set. He didn’t wish to miss his big takeover. Current party stats show: AFP 85% Junta 10% ADP 5% ALF 0% Now that Aramis had the majority he can now drive out the Democrats and the army fanatics, and now just 3 days before meeting jet set and the other 3 party’s as a formality. ( timeskip to the meeting ) ( Aramis pov ) I stand at my podium with the 50 stars American flag, the AFL had 13 red stars and 13 strips flag, the junta had the U.S Army flag and the ADP had the same flag as me. Let me describe the place, The 4 party leaders form a small half circle and in the middle is mr jet set and behind them is the press. Simple now let me introduce the leaders, I am the leader of the America first party, and mr nahuel Trotsky is leader of the American liberation front, the communist party, the leader of the American Democratic Party is Hillary Clinton and the junta leader is General Johnson Nixon. Now comes the time. “ now that everyone is here, let us begin the discussion mr Aramis shall go first. “ ms sweet drops from world news press said. I smile “ ladies and gentlemen if you will all direct your attention to the board of election today is the day where we found out who will be the president, and as we all know the party with the majority will be in charge so let’s all take a look. “ As I said that a giant tv screen came down and showed the results, with my party at 85% and the others at 5% and 10% and 0% so the AFP party will be in charge and the leader of said party will be president. I look at the other leader with a smug grin at the looks of loss on their faces. “ well it would seem I am to be elected again, and I accept the position as president again. “ and not long after that the other leaders look at me in anger mr jet set looks surprised for a few seconds before remaining neutral. ( one last time skip after the event ) It was now July 4th 12:00 PM 1009 the star spangled banner waves in the air and people signing the star spangled banner with joy all Americans standing with hands over their hearts. America is back and is ready to become a superpower once more, but a small portion of communist Korea along with the union of European nations have also found their way to this paradise of a world how will this effect our dear president Aramis, will he forgive the communist and agree to a new pact with the other 2 nations or seek revenge and conquer them as he will seek to end what his predecessor started 8 years ago. To be continued… Author's Note Re write and as always looking for editors. Comment for more chapters. //-------------------------------------------------------// So we meet again and someone just declared war on me. ( rewrite ) //-------------------------------------------------------// So we meet again and someone just declared war on me. ( rewrite ) ( president Aramis pov ) So after dealing with the final crap that is political media, anyways I feel like my good day is about to turn sour for some reason I don’t know why. After we finally contact Equestria we set up a meeting turns out and this is why I had that feeling earlier, the Korean empire lead by my country’s nemesis Jea-kang, and they found their way here along with the UEN lead by Amanda Lindsey, okay that’s not so bad. I can probably build a good relationship with her, but jea-Kang, well if he apologizes for all the shit he has done for the last 8 years I will be willing to at the very least work with him, but if he insults me his ass is grass. Anyway apparently we are going to meet up in canterlot for a summit or to talk without the threat of being killed, so I arrive to see I am the last to arrive, to the front of me is celestia and Luna. ( celestia looks like this https://www.deviantart.com/ponymaan/art/SUN-GODDESS-857424071 ) ( and Luna looks like this https://www.deviantart.com/ponymaan/art/MOON-GODDESS-857424454 ) And to my left jea-kang and my right Amanda Lindsey both humans stood at attention but I just had a relaxed posture until my eyes lock with jea-kang we stare at each other for a good few minutes glaring until finally I step up so that we are in handshake distance. Me: let’s get to business, you don’t like me and I sure as shit don’t like you but I am willing to work with you in the combined interest of our respective countries but I would like an apology for the last 8 to 9 years of crap you caused. Jea-kang: very well I will apologize if only because we are still recovering from our move here, and so as to not start another war. With that we shake hands and look at the others in the room. I didn’t honestly think he would apologize so easily but I guess he had a change of heart. I turn to look back at the Korean emperor. Me: I guess your not all bad after all, now then what other business shall we all discuss? And with that word my phone goes off with this ringtone. https://img.youtube.com/vi/d5n1aduF4ik/mqdefault.jpg Hearing my ringtone they start smiling and I took it to hear VP Ronald Regan call me up to say that some griffon named Archon Eros VII was in the process of declaring war on us, when I shut the phone off I look at them and I just said this. Me: Archon Eros VII just declared war on me. They all look in shock. Author's Note Like my work so far? Then thumbs up and comment about something. Also PM me for editor work or beta reader work or whatever. Don’t like don’t read simple as that. Have a nice day :) //-------------------------------------------------------// The war and the horror show ( rewrite ) //-------------------------------------------------------// Author's Note Like if you want to, comment it helps. And PM me for either editing work or something else. The war and the horror show ( rewrite ) ( President Aramis pov ) After the meeting went into recess for a few days I am currently In the canterlot hatchery where they house all the dragon eggs, you may be wondering why am I here or how I got here, well I am a diplomat and I came here because I heard that they sell dragon eggs here, since Luna is asleep and celestia is occupied with discord I just strolled on in and saw a black dragon egg, from my time on this world I learned that black dragons are the rarest and most powerful breed of dragon but are more rebellious. Non sense all he needs is a kind but firm hand in the right path so I liberated the little egg and took it home with me but not before I make a journey to the old castle of the two sisters, and funny enough unlike the show this castle is a lot more bigger then you think, after getting lost with an egg I found a secret passageway and it lead down to a big book. And surprisingly it’s in American English and it says: “ This gauntlet contains the power of the alicorn amulet and the gem of ages with this magical gauntlet non magical creatures can use any type of magic with ease of a grandmaster it is pure gold with an out layer of steel. Do not let this fall in the wrong hooves. -Scorpion “ Well that’s odd might as well try it on, and It was a rush literally so much power courses through me, and knowledge of magic, holy crap. I feel like I can control reality but still to find my way back to America and raise this little guy, I need an assistant and a protege and maybe an adopted son wouldn’t be so bad either. Also now that my mind is on it weapons & armor development or W&AD managed to make some new stuff for us although it will be awhile before we can replace to old stuff with this new stuff. So now We have basically what technology America has at the year 2019 this includes guns, armor, vehicles, etc. Finally after 2 hours of wondering I found the way out and I make my way back to my boat and set sail back home on the way I hatch the egg, he looked like spike except he had black scales and ruby red eyes and midnight blue spines. I think I’ll call him Ignatius flame or iggy for short, the little guy was definitely cute and looks smart so maybe I can give my knowledge to him with the help of this gauntlet, and I could and he was already speaking fluent English/Equestrian. I will say he’s fire breathe is red as his eyes and I know this because he sneezed fire and thank god the ship is made out of metal and not wood. I had Ignatius walking around when we Finally got back to new Washington and he wouldn’t leave my side and he always called me either dad or father and rarely Mr President which was a little funny. Anyway thanks to the gauntlet’s magic which in my opinion is really OP because if I wanted to I could cram tons of books worth of knowledge into Ignatius head and age him to around spikes age at season 1, and also make his fire breathe stronger and make his body stronger, seriously this thing is awesome. Anyway I try to use it sparingly as I can so I don’t go nuts with it, I know Ignatius will do anything to earn my love and respect because of how much love and affection and also because of the things he’s learning, he absorbs my wisdom like a sponge to water, anyway when we finally get back all of the people were cheering for my return and I announced my new son which made people cheer more. Onto other matters I have to make a return trip to Equestria for the national summit and this time I will bring Ignatius with me, I still do not trust those Koreans but they are of ok use to me for now, but I digress. Speaking of my son right now he is currently spikes height and is looks stronger as spike is baby fat but Ignatius Is muscle due to the fact that he has been training, I allow this as he understands the importance of improving your body so he trains in hand to hand combat mixed with bodybuilding exercises. Currently he is in the training room beating the absolute shit out of some of the recruits in sparing matches its 3 against 1 hand to hand only and Ignatius Is winning he is up against 1 pony 1 griffon and 1 human. That’s quite a team and I’m just standing in the door way watching until someone in the audience spots me and soon everyone noticed me except the combatants who are still going. At the end of the match my son rises his arms and roars out in victory standing on top of his knocked out opponents when he noticed how quite it is and that everyone is staring at the door way he looks and sees me smiling and I clap a few times. “ Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Good, Good, your getting better every time I’m so proud of you my son “ I can see his eyes light up as he stands more confident at my praise. I know he wants to make me proud but I have been and always will be proud of him, we have bonded over our return trip from Equestria by fishing and talking mostly me being philosophical saying wise sayings and all that. Before I forget let me explain this planet currently there are 2 big continents equis and Griffonia and the continent closes to us is Griffonia and I have plans for conquering all of Griffonia and thankfully no dread league to worry about at least not yet. Anyway I smile and take a seat and watch the next match, it’s a tournament and it’s already the 2nd match 2 out of 5. But as much as I want to watch my son win he knows as President I am usually very busy as the country can’t run itself, well actually it can but it’s really hard, but besides that get this, it comes to my attention that from field marshal Grimclaw one of our caravans was assaulted by the kingdom of Aquileia with orders from King Moriset Discret himself which made us mad so we declared War on them. 24 devisions from field marshal Grimclaw took them down but during that short lived war which only took a few weeks to end with us as the victors. ( Ignatius Pov during the war against the Aquileia ) I’m at the camp where we house all the prisoners of the enemy and in my hands I have a small enchanted bucket of pure lava and a small tool kit of knives and surgical equipment now you might be thinking why do I have this? And why Am I going to our enemy with this stuff, well we chained them to the walls and the place is soundproof so it’s perfect for me to convince ( read torture ) them to talk and find out what I can for dad, I can be very kind and compassionate for my father’s sake but I like it when I can be as cruel and sadistic as possible, especially to his enemies. And that’s what I’m here to do, so opening the big tent up I see about 6 griffons here all chined up and they are away just enough that they can’t reach each other so it’s perfect for what I’m about to do. When I enter they all look at me and I have an evil smile as waves of excitement and pleasure fill me up and I walk up to the for the most part toughest griffon out of the six of them which is the griffon on the far right with a scar across his left eye. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Here is where for those who don’t like what your about to read then just skip to the last part. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “ What are you gonna do torture me? We can handle anything. “ He said bravely but he is soon going to find out that he might have prematurely spoken. “ I’m going to enjoy this “ I said in a tone that was so dark and cold that he almost shit himself which makes me smile making me look like I’m insanely evil, I pulled out a dagger that dad gave me for my victory at the tournament and plunged it to the hilt in his claw making him scream in pain. “ No one takes my Daddy from me “ I was mad and I did growl that sentence out as I am very protective and possessive of my dad and if anyone hurts him in anyway I’m gonna kill them it’s why I train so hard every day, you see dragons have hordes they have lots of gold and gems and stuff but me well I am starting to get gold and gems from dad but my dad is my priceless treasure so of course it stands to reason why I’m more protective of him then the other stuff stashed in my room. “ Please, have mercy on him “ the griffon next to us cried as the dagger went in both the talons and hind legs leaving nasty gashes all over the griffons arms and legs and a bit of blood gets on his chest. You see while I’m tormenting this griffon with a scar the others are forced to watch as I mutilate him, I feel so good striking fear in these chickens. I look at the griffon who spoke in the same dark cold angry tone as before “ I don’t have any mercy “ then I turn my attention back to my victim. “ Now we’re going to continue with a little something I always wanted to try out, I can assure you it will be very painful, but first a question, and if I like your answer I’ll be a little more gentle in my handling of you but if I don’t like your answer well you get the idea, so how many troop divisions does your country have? “ I asked politely. “ Eat worms you gecko “ he said defiantly and it makes me smirk. “ I don’t like that answer “ I said walking over to the small bucket and brought it over closer to him. “Inside this bucket contains pure lava. And since I’m a dragon, this won’t hurt at all, At least for me that is.” I set the bucket down gently so as to not spill any and slowly stick my claws in the lave until my claws are completely submerged in it, after a few seconds I slowly pull them out as they radiated tons of heat with a lot of lava still on them. And then I turn to my victim. “Now, do me a favor. Scream as loud as possible.” My grin grew dark and malicious as i dug my claws against his stomach and closed my eyes in bliss as His wails were the only thing I heard aside from the others crying that is. “AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!” The griffon screamed at the top of his lungs as I dug my sharp claws deeper into his stomach, right now my claws were just beneath his neck and my claws are piercing his flesh drawing blood but it’s also cauterizing because my claws are so hot and I’m dragging them down from just beneath his neck to just above his crouch. “ Mmmmm, that was so very pleasing, you griffons know how to scream and your blood taste like cooked chicken “ yes I have had chicken with dad for dinner a couple times along with steak and hamburgers all were extremely delicious. I stick my claws down inside the lava bucket again and as I wait I look back at my victim he had six claw marks up and down the middle of his chest, but I’m not finished with him yet. “ So while I wait I’ll ask you, same question how many divisions does your country have? “ I asked the griffon that cried earlier and he looks at the griffon I just clawed, before answering. “ We have 13 most are just militia and only few have proper military training. “ He said tears streaming down his eyes. I smile a calm look on my face “ Now that wasn’t so hard was it? Next question? Where will they be deployed? “ I asked. “ Don’t you tell him anymore private Ranger “ so that’s his name wonder what my victim’s name is. “ Yes Sargent windbreaker “ ahh that’s his name kinda nice for a chicken. “ I don’t like that answer “ I smile so evil you would think that I am a demon that escaped from tartarus, as I slowly take my claws out and slowly walk to the Sargent I look at his crouch and back to his eyes. “ You don’t need these anymore do ya? “ I asked innocently and he must have figured why I asked because the second his eyes widen was the second I took my red hot claws and ripped his dick and balls off. Oh the sweet beautiful music of pained screams fills the tent as I did that and he passed out but luckily still not dead, good thing to as I’m still not done yet. So now I’m sure you know this process, I re apply the lava and I wait for him to wake back up. And a few minutes later he does and then I get to work tearing off his wings slowly. Then I wipe off the lava using his feathers as a towel, “ now that was rude sleeping on us like that, now let me show you what my father has taught me. “ I said unwrapping the knife kit that had clean knives and were specially designed to cause as much damage and pain as possible. “I’m going to take out each of your organs and bones. So be sure to make a lot of noise.” I grinned and grabbed the first knife and began to carve a long cut that went up to his throat all the way back down to his thighs. I ripped the skin apart and grabbed a pair of tongs. I reached into the body despite his screams of protest and pulled out a kidney. “ OH PLEASE STOP YOU’LL KILL HIM! “ Private Ranger screamed at me and I looked at him. “ That’s the idea feather brain “ I said smirking before turning back to the soon to be dead Sargent. “Don’t worry. I’ll just pluck each organ out, and see what happens.” I dropped the kidney into a nearby bin i kept near the bucket and started to make an incision on both his hind legs. I ripped the skin off them as well and began to pull the bones out. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Okay this is the last part. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The others could only watch in complete horror as I worked. I pluck each and every organ out saving his heart for last, and when I finish he is dead and I decided to burn him, using my fire breathe I absolutely burned his body so much the only thing is ash. I call the cleaners in and pack up to head home, but I stop at the door and turn around. “ Thanks for the fun I’ll make sure to come back for more, and I can’t wait to top this next time, bye. “ I said and they sobbed so badly I think their ready to cooperate now so my work here is done and I go home to work out some more after I take a shower and clean myself off of course. With a grin and giggling to myself I skip to the train that’s about to leave for the new White House... //-------------------------------------------------------// The hall, the child, the republic. //-------------------------------------------------------// Author's Note Long chapter and hope you enjoy it because this took a lot of inspiration searching and time to make, my apologies that it took so long needed to get in the writing mood. But I’m back :) Also happy birthday to me The hall, the child, the republic. ( Aramis pov ) Okay so back at the White House, I just approved of the construction of the hall of independence it looks just like the old historical one and I love it rebuilding American history one building at a time, in other news I am to see the summit again to discuss the annexation of the recently old Aquileia republic, yes we annexed all their territory and officially gave them statehood so now we officially have 13 states and renamed them to fit old American colonies so we are gonna have to take back 50 states in historical order. Maybe I might make the 13 commonwealths of America like in fallout universe. But that’s for much later in the future, right now I’m just thinking about the absolute insanity the people have right now. Let me explain a bit, you see I just got done giving a speech for the people for the new and the old Americans. And at the end I said this as a joke. President Aramis: with all that is and how good a job I’m doing I am confident I will win the next election, heck why not hold a vote that if everyone wants me to be in office indefinitely, ha ha ha ha ha. “ I laughed but surprisingly everyone looks like their actually considering it. And on November 8 I get a paper that says and I quote. ‘ do you want our current president to hold office indefinitely and no elections to be held? ‘ Yes 90.00% No 10.00% And if that’s not enough I read in todays paper. “ President Aramis wins vote every confirmed legal citizen of The United States have voted in favor of all power to our dear President who is tirelessly working to make our grand country even better, and more good news our President has generously brought all taxes down to 4% and has cut regulations back further so local businesses are growing faster and better then ever and is lowering inflation our dollar is now worth more, prices in all consumer goods are at an all time low, rate of unemployment is also at an all time low. Many are referring to our Commander in Chief the best in history, only time will tell if our president will live up to our expectations. “ Yeah I meant that as a joke but apparently they took it seriously so now I’m stuck in office permanently, well It’s still business as usual it’s just that My job just became permanent now so you know business as usual just don’t have a time limit. But I will bring back elections at a later date. Right now I need to take a small break from the paperwork when I hear grunting coming from the gym and I get curious so I take a look. ( Ignatius pov ) Sweat drips from my forehead as I do another pull up with enchanted weights strapped to me, you see I learned from my dad that you don’t need to be big to be strong, so by weight and strength training I can be the strongest dragon in the world while looking like a martial arts master, which is what I was going for as I study and practice any form of fighting I can find, be it martial arts to wrestling to kickboxing and just boxing and mixed martial arts. “ 77…78..79…80. “ I huff and drop to the ground landing on my feet, sweat drips from my body but I don’t rest I up the weight on them from 40 lbs to 80 lbs and these are strapped to my arms, my legs and my back and also I keep these on as I’m practicing. I am so gonna Impress daddy when he sees just how strong I am going to be, I am going to train so much I will be able to breathe a fireball so strong it will be like a Tsar Bomba went off in the center of town and that will be my weakest attack. I dream big and I work very hard to live that dream for my father, my priceless treasure, and I will destroy anyone who threatens him!. So I huff and puff as I strike the practice dummy’s that are made of steel that swing back at me, while I strike I dodge and strike again, I train till I drop, every day, my body looks really toned nice sized leg and arm muscles and 4 pack abs getting a 6 pack soon and my back looks shredded I also do some yoga for flexibility reasons. Anyway after struggling to get up after another intense workout I had a feeling I’ve only felt when my dad watches me, so I need to do better, pushing my self up and using to weight to 140 lbs and practice my martial arts again and throw in some fire breathing training and a little endurance training. Lots of sweat is coming off me but I don’t care I must make daddy proud. This feeling I get fills me with energy dad said it’s a dragons growth thing. He explained their are 2 types of dragon growth, Need growth and Greed growth, need growth is when I have the feeling I NEED to do this or do that, this makes my strength and my firepower grow stronger at a faster rate though I will not get bigger in terms of how tall I get. Greed growth is the opposite as I only get taller and somewhat bigger in mass because I WANT this or that so I should avoid this type of growth, plus with need growth my eyes shine a brilliant FireRuby red which is cool. And with so much energy I roar as I tackle my new workout, I’m ready for round 2. Oh yeah another thing I should mention I scare people, no really I’ve gotten a reputation of being Without mercy and a sadistic so when people see me or hear me I make them very afraid as they should be, because if I find they are plotting against dad I’ll make them beg me for death. And speaking of that I found a griffon plotting to kill dad after the people held that new vote so I’m gonna have some fun with that chicken after my workout maybe he’ll like a sweaty surprise I have in store for him. ( President Aramis pov ) I watched as my son works harder then ever and As always I’m proud of him, not even 4 years old and he’s already tougher then most people, oh yeah his Birthday is on the 26 of March gotta take him fishing again something we haven’t done in a long time. Anyway I feel I have a few minutes to watch so I do and I record him training, I swear you could drop a big rock on him and the rock would shatter completely and Ignatius would not even flinch in fact someone did do that and that’s what happened if not for the dust on his shoulders he never would have known someone dropped a big rock on him, and the rock was Chiseled to the size of an official sized football ( American Football, Not the other ) but not official weight ( anyone get that reference? ) so not knowing where it come from he just whipped the dust off and continued to walk with me as if nothing even happened. Crazy right well my few minutes are up and it’s back to the desk for me, at least instead of paperwork I managed to get my personal computer in office so the work load is easier to deal with. Now I shit you not, I am pissed, no really, right as I’m about to sit down chief of Army Edward Sallow comes in with news. ( NV reference #1 ) Edward Sallow: sir the archon of the griffon empire just declared war on us. I sat down and face palm “ you’ve gotta be fucking kidding “ ( postal dude reference ) I look at him with an annoyed face. “ send in Marshalls Grimclaw and Lanius and send in my son Ignatius to the field and deal with them and send 72 power armor divisions 24 under Grimclaw 24 under Lanius and 24 under Ignatius and make sure each division has 125 troops and each and everyone are equipped with the standard T-45 power Armor and their Standard Laser Rifle and Gatling Laser weapons also send in air support be it transport or otherwise. Edward nods and leaves to do his task while I smirk, you may be wondering why am I smirking, well the answer is simple because this war is only gonna last a year at most and a few weeks at least. Also I should summarize the armor and weapons going by fallout 4 albeit modded so they do more then ballistic weapons. Take a modded institute laser rifle with an overcharge capacitor, improved long barrel, full stock, reflex sight, and a fine tuned beam focuser. This would do 81 damage without a fully maxed out rifleman perk which gives double damage so that’s 162 damage nothing to laugh at better then a standard laser musket or rifle or pistol at least with the right mod. Base game it only does base institute weapon does 15, worst laser weapon in game without mods which doesn’t make much sense as they are the most technically advanced faction so surly they have the better laser weapon but no they have the worst. Any way back to the point that’s the standard for us the big 162 that is standard the T-45 armor on the other hand is still being worked on to be better I know what about the X.01 MK VI well we’ve got a very very long way to go before that. Well I know Ignatius will be excited as well as Lanius and GrimClaw well she’s indifferent but that’s fine, well I’ve got more projects to look over so back to work. ( Ignatius pov ) Ahh back to war we go, my favorite thing is killing power hungry megalomaniac dictators and the archon I’ve had his name on my list for a while all I can say is this is gonna be fun, not to mention I’ve been improving my diet to enchanted gems and enchanted obsidian now my scales are a shiny black same with my spines. Anyway I’ve also improved my balefire breath it has the strength of a hydrogen bomb so using that on a enemy city will definitely demoralize them and my wings are looking good to go for flying the distance, father wants these chickens to fear us in a way that will show the world we are a superpower once again. Now time to work so ordering half my troops to stay behind while I fly to the city of cloudberry for the balefire ball, I wonder what people will think when they see the giant mushroom cloud that will soon to be what was once a city. ( President Aramis pov ) After I managed to finish up most of my work for the hour I had some free time to myself, I look out in the distance from the balcony that Abraham Lincoln stood as a spectator to the battle for the White House and got his hat shot off his head, * BOOOOOOOMMMMM * a massive shockwave could be felt and in the far off distance I see a ruby red mushroom cloud. Ignatius must have used his balefire breath and holy cow is it big, thankfully we are safely outside the blast zone, well I can imagine archon realized he made a big mistake and the press is gonna have a field day with this. ( Grover the VI pov ) One day I will be the Emperor of the griffon empire but as of late for both aunt Gabriella and I well I’m worried for our lives especially after witnessing a big bomb in cloudberry, the big kaboom and a massive shockwave could be felt all the way from here. I hear my auntie ask but it sounded like it was more to herself then to me. “ who did the archon piss off? And why? “ she looks scared more so then me but I put my right claw on her back to ease her worries a bit. “ don’t worry too much auntie I’m sure we will be okay in the end, I hope “ I muttered that last bit to myself and look at the field of battle, my father told me often who bloody battles of old were but this is clearly one sided, what’s worse is that our crossbows do little to nothing against those walking tanks from what our spy’s report, at least the very few who were not captured. I’m sad that I will not be able to continue my fathers work and be the next emperor but I have hope that just maybe by some minuscule Chance I might be able to and carve my name in griffon history for all time and for my future descendants like my dad did for me. But for now I will wait and sit on the extremely comfortable throne that my father and grandfathers sat on for generations and I swear to Boreas himself I feel as if that they here with me standing by my side smiling with pride, especially my father. I cry a bit more since it’s been 8 months since his death but I wipe the tears away remembering my promise to my dad. I will make my mark on history and be known as Grover VI the Great. I will rise one day like a mighty griffon but until then here I will wait for the ruler of this Country, I look over the reports and decided to read some of the books brought by the spy’s sent. One specific book caught my eye it was titled An oversimplified version of America and her history. With interest I decided to read it to pass the time and judging by its title alone I can feel the pride of whoever made this has a strong sense of love for his or her people and the preservation of their history so maybe this will be a good read. ( 5 minutes later ) I was wrong about my previous statement and would like to amend it, in the few pages I finished reading and it looks to keep going, this was not a good read. This is a masterpiece, a wonderful read. I’m hooked on this and want to finish it so badly, I want to know what happens next, it turns out that this book is a historical guide of the enemy country and man does it have a Tartarus of a history I mean it stared out as a colony under a king and it had no chance of winning but it did win against all odds and now from what I’m reading president Abraham Lincoln is leading his nation through a Civil war but I am a bit heartbroken over his son’s death as that’s an awful thing to happen to such a great man. My father would have loved to meet this president Abraham Lincoln he and my father would have gotten along greatly, At least I think they would. Anyway back to reading apparently it’s the almost the end of the civil war with a union victory and its here I learn something amazingly powerful. When America was founded it had a thing called a Constitution and with it a constitutional republic was born, and the rights it protected made me happy that it was all for the well-being for the people. Well I think I’ll keep reading I can’t wait to see what’s next. ( timeskip a few weeks later, president Aramis pov ) It’s an amazing sight and honestly we should move our capital here in griffonhiem the capital of the griffon empire, but honestly the idea of being in a castle has always been a dream of mine since I was a boy. I and my secret service guards and my son walk up to the big castle door and open them up the interior is breathtaking and when we arrive in the throne room it’s even more grand, and there sitting on a throne is the child that would be emperor with the archon beside him. And under the child’s talons is a book. “ so at last we meet face to face your majesty and we will talk more later, Archon Eros VII your war against the United States of America is over and you have lost, surrender is your only option let no more blood be spilled today. “ I said and he looks mad so he charged and was shot to death by my guards. I walk to the child on the throne with a calming smile. “ well that was unfortunate but we have time to ourselves I believe introductions are in order I’m President Aramis Courter of the United States of America “ I reach out for a handshake and his little talon clasp with mine as we shake. “ I am Grover VI the future emperor of the griffon empire, so what happens now? “ he asked and I see he was reading that book of mine about our history. “ now the empire will be annex as part of the states but the town names will be kept the same as to not erase their identity or culture importance, it is important to respect and preserve history after all, in the meantime i made a presidential decree that elections will be held either after my death or resignation, and anyone can run for office as long as they are a legal citizen of the United States so Grover my young friend I hope you enjoy you new life with any remaining family members. “ With that I leave the young griffon to his own devices. I know my adopted son will outlive me in age and the child emperor is innocent and has my respect as did his father, but in my time I feel like I should resign in a few more years, I can retire and maybe just enjoy the manor I built the Courter manor is a nice big home with everything a person could want. Think the Wayne family manor from batman but a little bigger. Well back in the White House and the paperwork on my desk is still sizable so best get back to it. //-------------------------------------------------------// The young ruler and the dragon //-------------------------------------------------------// The young ruler and the dragon Or new sibling bonding time. ( Grover VI pov ) I must admit I was shocked that aunt gabby and I get to live with mr Aramis in the White House, aunt gabby also got a job as a treasurer and is doing a great job, I am reading books on the history and laws of the country I will be aloud to run for president when I’m older, right now I hear sound’s coming from the basement so I got up and set my book down on the chair and go investigate and come to find out it’s Ignatius, that dragon despite his young age is unbelievably powerful. And he is still training I can see the way he trains hard but I noticed a flaw in his training and it’s pretty small but is major in the long run, from what I can remember my dad taught me about training is that you can spend hours working out but only get a small amount of progress but by doing simple exercises you can make much more progress, As Ignatius set down the weights I think now’s the time. ( 3rd pov ) Grover VI — your training is good but you have a flaw. Ignatius — what do you mean? Grover VI — I mean is that you spend hours training but your only making small progress, how about I show you something that can help with that. Ignatius — hmm, ok couldn’t hurt to try something new, alright let’s see what you got. And so Grover showed Ignatius a new type of exercise it was so easy Ignatius didn’t break a sweat, Ignatius — you call the a workout? I didn’t even break a sweat. Ignatius Said with irritation prominent in his voice, but the young griffon just shook his head with a smile. Grover VI — that was only 1 set, you still have 8 more to go. The young future ruler said smiling at the dragons thinking face before it lights up. Ignatius — now your talking alright let’s go. With that Ignatius does the rest and at the end is sweating more then usual but did feel much more stronger and faster. Ignatius — okay I’ll admit you were right, names Ignatius And from what dad says your Grover VI nice to meet you. Ignatius Said with a pleasant smile and reached out for a claw shake. Grover VI — nice to meet you as well and I must thank you for helping me and my aunt gabby for saving us from archon I thought he was a good griff he has served my father and grandpa and great grandpa for years, seems power changed him. Ignatius — your welcome in any event it’s nice to have a new little brother around so welcome to the family. Grover Vi — new little brother what do you mean? Ignatius — well a few days ago your aunt Gabriela and my dad Aramis signed an adoption paper so not only are you the son of an emperor but also the second son of the president and my new little brother. Ignatius Said smiling and hugging the young griffon who returns the hug while in shock of the news he just received. Ignatius — now I need to go take a lava bath and deal with a dog call if you need me or dad, see ya at dinner lil bro. With that Ignatius went upstairs leaving the young griffin to his own thoughts. ( Ignatius pov ) ( 1 and a half hours later ) That bath was great dad was right I should take a lava bath at the end of each workout, now it’s time for some fun. A few days ago the SSS agency ( special shady service ) caught a female diamond dog trying to poison the SECNAV ( secretary of the navy ) so I get to have some fun with her and I turn 5 in a few months and you know I love causing pain to those who work against dad it’s like my favorite pastime. Anyway I walk into the room of suffering as some call it and the bitch is chained to the wall gagged and blindfolded she can’t really say anything and can’t see but she can definitely hear and she hears my approaching, Ignatius — you know, you not the first I’ve had to kill but you won’t be my last and I always like to experiment a little so this should be fun. I said in a chillingly happy way that makes her fur stand on end like she just got told she should be very afraid right now. And I love this feeling of dominance over these worms, no I won’t kill her, not yet anyway, I want to break her and then kill her. So I think I’ll let your minds think up the ways I’ll break her mentally but I’m also hurting her physically as well just to help it along, wonder what dad’s up to with my new little brother?. ( with the President and little Grover VI ) Aramis — now I’m sure you’re wondering what it is I called for you, well I adopted you with your auntie’s permission so welcome to the family, now I am sure you want to get started on reading the laws and all that their is to know about the country, but that can wait. Now I have work to do and you don’t need to call me dad this soon, just feel free to explore to your heart’s content. Grover VI — thank you Mr President, I am grateful for this opportunity. ( the next day ) ( Grover VI pov ) Ignatius my new brother, is very strong and let me say very protective, let me explain we were just taking a stroll in town of new New York and yes the word new was added to all fifty states, some of them are odd like new New Jersey, new Indiana, new Hawaii, new Washington, new Alaska, just to name a couple to give you an idea. Anyway taking a stroll in town when in a restaurant called yesterday sushi which was very good sushi, but some jerk came up to me and insulted me and my brith family by slapping the official royal crown off my head. Every griffon was outraged and even looked ready to beat this jerk up for that, but Ignatius beat them to it and broke every bone in his body and roasted his butt, it was awesome to watch in fact the humans with phones were recording the whole thing from when my crown got knocked off to the end where big bro literally sets fire to his butt, I never knew dragons can be so flexible and strong but ignatius proved that it can be done. It was a fun night all in all and every griffon would bow to me and address me as your majesty and I would bow in return out of respect and decorum. The morning was slow and I was watching big bro working out, of course I would give him some pointers on somethings and he would help me exercise as well, and even help me with my swordsmanship, we have guns but everyone still has a sword and knife as a back up just in case. And it’s also for helping me stay in shape so as to not end up like my late father Grover V or as many knew him as Grover the weak. I will restore the griffon name and bring pride back to my fellow griffons and with all this knowledge at my disposal I know I will be a great emperor as will my descendants be. Author's Note Gonna try a new style of dialogue let me know if I should stick with the old way or the new way. Also I am terrible at talking like other characters so some help in how characters should act in certain ways would greatly be appreciated
