Chapters Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
Did they... did they come back?
Author's Note
so, I understand the grammatical errors, seriously, I didn’t do it on purpose and I hope they don’t ruin your experience, chapter one and two I did the night but the next one has no excuse, so ... please don’t crucify me!
note: so ... I may have missed the entire chapter while reviewing it, it's not like it happened! but it may have happened, so I decided to rewrite it because I want to! not because i lost him...
Did they... did they come back?
I was surprised by the spell, a spell so massive as to affect the magic field of the planet, normally this would be enough for me to faint, since while some claim to feel nauseous when teleported, I feel relaxed, relaxed even too, if the spell is strong, I begin to feel sleepy, now this, if I had not seen the magic circle I would have fainted easy.
But I saw the circle, so it was just getting ready, preparing for incredible tension that is a teleport of this magnitude, my arms start to get heavy while the carnival of colors passes around me, if it wasn't for the effort I was making to stay conscious I could enjoy the colors.
Who will it be? there are few living things that can still do a spell of this magnitude, so who? the southern dragons? maybe the caribous in the far north, maybe, maybe they're wizards of the east, no matter, by the end of the day there will be one less of them in the world.
I see the colors calming down, I prepare, I squeeze the white horn in my hand and I feel my fluid mana for it, it will be now! and then it's over, it's done, I feel the enormous pressure of the spell falling apart and the colors of the world getting organized, and there was, in front of me a white alicorn like snow, I trembled, what?! As! Is that her? can't be! I burned all the Necronomicon's and necromancers! my illusion detectors aren't activating... and that's not golemancy... That's her! it has to be! I'm shaking inside, so many questions flying through my head, so I see, next to her, Luna, the same thoughts come back to my head, like!
They were all there! Celestia, Luna, the elements of harmony... Oh my god... Why am I shaking?! It's a trick, it has to be! yes, yes---
"Is this the most dangerous being there is?"
No... that voice... it's her, but it can't be, there's no way it's her! It's IMPOSSIBLE! I reduced her to ashes! Maybe a Necronomicon survived, and revived them, somehow finding their bodies... but she... her, I didn't leave anything of her! only ashes! I turn, slowly and there she is, that demon, that monster, she... Does she have both wings? I want to run, every fiber of my being wants to get away from here, but something is stopping me, my feet are stuck on the ground, it has to be this, she... I feel my hands failing me, I no longer feel the horn or the other briefcase, just fear, almost palpable.
"SPENCEEEEEEEEEEEEER!"
Almost as if freed by a force majeure I run away from it, taking everything I can, they say something but fear is doing everything possible to overshadow my mind, a purple shield forms in front of me and almost as if by reflex I extend my hand, and when touching the shield it falls apart completely, no matter, I have to run , I have to get out of here, my heart is beating at an insane speed and I can already feel my legs faltering, my god I did not run thirty meters and I'm already fainting! damn teleport spell!
Crash!!!
I... I literally went through a window, I don't know how I didn't see it, but it doesn't matter, what matters is getting out of here! I get a purple horn on my jacket, how far is it for me to hit the ground? I don't know, how fast am I falling? I don't know, I only know one thing, there's only one safe place, a friend's house, and with a little pop I feel the spell activating and poof, I've undone in the air.
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
Sigh lightly upon entering the Crystal Heart, this is my home, according to Damian, my fortress of solitude, a small room of five meters by five meters, has a bedroom, living room, a space for training and a kitchen all together, only a small column separates the bed from the kitchen, today will be one of those days, Damian has been having these attacks more often , seriously Miranda, Twilight? Am I an idiot or what? of course he would have an attack, it must already times me wake up with him crying and saying her name, asking to stop, that he could not resist anymore ... he never told me what happened, according to him, is too strong for a little dragon * snort * him ... He's an idiot. But he's my idiot, and today's going to be a very complicated day, he's going to get all sentimental, well, I think I'm going to keep my promise so I'm going to make the best pegasus of his life.
I walk slowly towards the kitchen, dodging the clothes around my bed, which by the way is a mess, I blame him for making too much noise and waking me up, then I fix it, now we go to the kitchen.
My kitchen, just like everything in this room is very compact, a stove, a freezer and a barbecue, not like that atrocity he calls a relic, I take one of the knives on the ceiling and open the freezer, he likes soft meat, then it will be a foal, I take a green pegasus that was in the freezer and put on top of the stove, seriously, Hate to bone a pegasus is boring and time consuming , especially the wings, but if it goes to Damian, I make an effort, with a strong blow I'll rip a hoof off him, I think it should be enough, he shouldn't be too hungry, we finish the colt at night, hmm? Strange, I heard a loud noise, what is he doing? I hope nothing that forces me to go there.
I put the foal in the freezer and get a pot that sits on a shelf on the wall, damn it, what noisy, what's he doing? it seems sound of glass breaking, I swear to God, if it breaks another stained glass... *sigh* not now, must be one of the soldiers who came back early, probably Bloody Novel, seriously, that unicorn is... single, i light the stove, i get some ice from the freezer and with a puff of fire I have a pot full of water, now just cut the hull and -- MY GOD what a noise! Now it looks like there's a lot of people talking, really, they're all back? seriously if this is some party in his world... Well, the last one didn't end well, so I feel, an aura around the heart, I... I don't know whose aura this is... Is it Damian's? he never uses magic, it's very rare, I cannot miss it, I bet it is him asking for help to the guards to fix a stained glass! yes it has to be that! I keep the knife I was using, just to get a bigger one, let's see what he's up to.
Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
One teleport spell, teleportun anyrum, raak atakk, or whatever variant of name that fits it, in everyone, an object in motion, continues in motion.
It hurt, it hurt like hell, about ten years ago it would have ended with my arms, now I think I just dislocated one of them, Jesus, how it hurts man, damn it, I slowly rise, keeping my arm dislocated as close as possible of the body, but now is not the time to worry about it, the insane beating of my heart and the cold sweat remind me of why I am like this, she ... She was fucking there!
"Spenceeeeeeer!"
"Não, foda-se não, SAI DA MINHA CABEÇA!"
"Don't talk like that, speak equestrian, please Mr. Spencer."
Not again, I need to calm down now! I put my only good hand against my eyes and breathe as deeply as I can, I stay like this, repeating this until I hear nothing else, no screams, no cries or deaths, and especially nothing of... Of... Of that alicorn!
I didn't make a mistake, I know where I was teleported to, the castle of the two sisters but, why isn't there that classic greenish wax from changelings? Speaking of which, where is Chrysalis? Where's her throne? It only has a pile of stones, more precisely four pil---
"Four? What?"
Something is wrong, something is very wrong, it was supposed to be two piles of stone, I broke two of them before, I... Who did that? WHO? My neurons are firing at an unhealthy speed in an attempt to understand.
It is not necromancy, golemancy, or something like that, will it be ... Changelings? That explains why the castle is so empty, no, Twilig---, my jailer, she had both wings, Chrysalis would never miss something so trivial! Jesus, my head is exploding and the pain in my arm doesn’t help, I look up, more precisely at one of the holes in the ceiling and I see Celestia’s tower, there, there are things, things that must be there, something that will help me, so , as slowly as my body allows I move to that damn tower and the infinity of steps that accompanies it.
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
Screw the dislocated arm, screw the dizziness and the danger of running down those stairs running, this, this place, everything is wrong, in my left hand I carry some books caught in that room, not any books, the personal diary of Celestia and the two secret books under her bed, me, this is impossible! That simple!
"MIRANDA !!!"
I scream her name a couple more times, I need her help with my arm and... Well... To calm me down, Jesus, you can, with a lot of work and study, replicate the castle of the sisters, yes you can you, the four piles of stone? Maybe, now these books!? No... it can't be replicated, I read them, I memorized them, I burned them, and how the hell are they here?!
I'm almost there, two more curves and I reach the throne room, by God, if this is a chrysalis joke, God protect her.
"Spenceeeer..."
No... Not now, I have to calm down, but like, breathing like before won't help, I need Miranda now!!!
"MIRANDAAAAA, FUCK! COME HERE !!!"
I'm almost there one more step and I enter, however, I stopped, I stopped because there, right next to me there was a mirror, and I looked at it, and my God what I saw, an adult man, with his hair all messy, with white skin, but obscured by dirt and sweat, with gray trousers made by hand, just like his shirt, and of course, the small coat, similar to a vest, where I keep all the main horns, and... And... In the background... Behind the man, a distorted figure, a huge but stunted being, eyes as black as night with only a small purple dot being his pupil, her voice... Her teeth... The smile... That damn smile that she always used during the sessions... I don't know how, but I gathered all my willpower and punched the mirror as hard I can, it broke into a thousand pieces, along with that... That thing... That thing must be dead...
I arrived... I am in the throne room, my heart does not stop racing, my God I think I will have a heart attack at this rate, if she speaks again... If she appears again... I... I... I don't know what I do, I can feel it, a slight twinge and a chill in my chest, a clear signal from my body telling me to stop thinking about these things, and I very quickly accept your warning.
I look around and see the suitcase, run to it and kneel.
"Miranda, get out of there now!"
Anything? Wait... Why only have... One suitcase, no... I can feel it, the sick heat of a hoof on my shoulder.
"Mr. Speencer, now that we are alone, without that, friend... How about we start?" that was it, that was the last straw, I felt my senses leaving me, NO! I can't pass out, the books fall from my hand, my eyelids are heavy, and then... Darkness!
Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
Author's Note
Okay, so, some people find the first chapter ... peculiar so to speak, so this chapter is much stronger, at least the beginning, ignore it until you see the lines ---- // ----- then you can read if you prefer, seriously, I didn't find anything big with the first chapter, I mean, look at the tags, now this one already I found a little heavy, very good to read on a Tuesday at night !!!
note: I LITERALLY have no idea how to write applejack and Luna, so excuse me, they will either say little or speak, well without an accent.
Sorry...
I'm running in a forest, a dense tropical forest, and ... And she is here, I can hear her, I can almost feel her, I stumble, if I fall down... No, I have to keep running, never stopping, why, if she pick me up... I'm going back to the stretcher and I----
"MR. Spenceeeeer!!!"
Is she here yet? Where? I look around at insane speed, where where WHERE SHE IS! Then I stop and look at those two little purple dots staring at me from the bush, I know what that is, and I want to run, but I can't do it, I see those two dots, no higher than a meter and a half, then, they started to rise, over two meters, reveling a purple pony, skeletal, the ribs showing, with eyes like the blackest of nights, pupils purple like the blood of stellar bears, with a slight twisted smile, revealing little of their sharp and pointed teeth like swords, its left frontal hoof, replaced by a metal rod that ends in five ...
Five scalpels... The voice... The voice is simply the worst, and I will not stay here to listen, almost as if I were released by a bigger force, I feel my legs respond, and I run, branches hitting my face, sharp sticks piercing my legs and a precipice... No matter what is at the bottom of it, a lake? More trees? A plain ready to be painted? It doesn't matter, everything is better than her, I jump, without a hint of hesitation, and see a small river.
Splash!!!
Don't let the movies fool you, it hurts fall more than twenty meters, even if it's water, my whole body is hot and aching, but now, I hold on to a rock and still under water and look up, there is that... That thing, she analyzes the river and looks at where it flows, I can almost see a smile forming on her face when its wings open and she flies with the current.
After a few moments without seeing her, I come out of the water, breathing as much as I can before throwing myself into the riverbed.
Wait... I know this cliff! I'm on Everfree! Yes, it has to be, and only one way to confirm it, I climb a small tree, the maximum that my body allows, before I see, yes, certainly, one of the towers of the castle of the sisters! There... I'll be safe! Nothing can touch me there, and it's my ... My secret place, my fortress... My... My home...
I can feel tears and fear wanting to invade me again, NO! I stop as quickly as possible, if I feel afraid, she will find me, she always finds me.
I slowly descend from the tree and see my reflection, a normal man you would say, torn clothes and some cuts on the body and Jesus I have to shave, but... No, focus, castle, then I cry.
After a light walk, almost enough to relax my body, I see, the only bridge that leads to the castle, the only entrance to the castle... And she is there, standing in front of the bridge.
I start to feel that fear come back and the questions shoot in my head: "how am I going to get through it? She has magic I have nothing! If... If I surrender maybe she will be less severe... Yes... If I---"
Before I finish thinking, I feel the ground beneath me crumble, and I slide down the smooth stone until I fall into an old cave, very old, how old? Believe me I know, why there in front of me is a dead tree, a crystal tree once vibrant and shiny, now dark and lifeless... I did it... Why? Rage? Fear? I don't remember, what matters is the axe stuck in her side, I walk slowly towards him, I can almost hear him calling me when he disappears.
"Well, well, well, it looks like the escape routes are over."
I turn around, and there she is, that repulsive and twisted being, with the axe levitating a few meters from her head.
"Don't worry Mr. Spencer, I forgive you, you, with your 'collaboration', we can bring the tree back!"
"No, please."
"Shhhhhhh... Calm down Mr. Spencer, I will not hurt you, it will be... Painless," his smile widens, revealing his grotesquely twisted and sharp teeth "I promise, as princess of friendship."
Do I have to get out of here, now, get the axe? No, too obvious, then how? This time I don't have knives around or a lamp... She will catch me, she already caught me!
Damn, I'm Damian Spencer, lord of Equestria and his executioner, I can't tremble now, I killed her once, I have to do it again!
Using everything I had left, I tried to raise my fists, but before the first movement was made, I feel the cold metal wire on my lips, and I see that her metallic hoof was against my face, more precisely one of her 'fingers. '
"No, no, no, Mr. Spencer, no violence, it will be quick, with your help the pony species will prosper as never before! We have even found a way to identify changelings because of you! And we have barely started! Think about the discoveries that still missing! "
I can feel tears forming, but it was only when she quickly removed that damn scalpel, cutting across the bottom of my lip, then I couldn't stop the tears.
"Ohh, sorry, you know, I'm still learning to use these, your old jailer, doctor silk touch knew how to handle then well."
The doctor... How long I haven't heard that name, he was... He was a, a good pony, his way, the way the situation allowed, but he was a good pony.
I feel its metallic hoof running through my body causing several cuts and tearing the rags that I called clothes.
"Spencer... Why?"
"WHA--"
"Why did you kill me, Spencer?"
Those words, these words, I thought I would never feel so much hate like this before, I felt light, I grabbed his horn and with my other free hand I stole his axe, "WHY?!?!"
I feel the mana forming in his horn, but as long as I'm holding her horn, nothing will come out of it, with a quick movement I dig the axe in her ribs, she screams, screams at an insane height, after removing the axe, when I was ready to strike another blow, the axe levitates from my hand.
"No no no no, my dear, this is not how a lady is treated!"
There, behind me were other of those twisted beings, this one was all burned, her skin was gone a lot and his muscles are showing, the only remaining skin in it is her left eye, almost untouched by the flames.
"You..."
"Hihi, I think he saw Rarity!!!"
They are here! Pushing the best I can the giant alicorn to the side, I run to the only source of light in this cave of horrors, I hear a flutter of wings and a blue figure passed by me, almost caught me, almost.
I never thought it was easy to climb smooth rock, but this one is very complicated, every two centimeters that I climb, I fall one, and I hear them screaming, grunting, and just like me, climbing.
When I look down, I feel a phenomenal urge to vomit, there, under this trap, an amorphous being made of flesh, gut's and eyes, I can see a wing and tails coming out of that thing, even a stepson! And it is screaming my name, and it is going up.
Almost there! After kicking those meat tentacles that tried to get me I see something, something that for a second freezes my heart more than the purple alicorn, looking at me, from the top of this trap is she, Fluttershy, that yellow pegasus, untouched, immaculate by any acts that I have committed, but I know what I did, I know where to look, and there is it, a little cut under her neck, and she just looked at me, even wearing those blindfolds, I know she was looking at me and says just one word:
"Why?"
In that same lovely tone that she had, and that was it, I feel my arms loosening, my legs weakening, and I fall, I fall into the gigantic jaw of that amorphous being, but before I fall, I force myself to answer her:
"Sorry..."
-------------------------------------------------------------------//---------------------------------------------------------------------------
I wake up, there were few times that I got up so fast, God I'm still sweating, and my heartbeat is trying to calm down, why? Why did I dream about them? So long ago they left me alone, and Fluttershy... She was there... I...
"Sorry..."
I can feel, a cold taking my body, but this time it’s not fear, it’s, it’s sadness, I couldn’t help looking at the hole in the ceiling, just to see a bright full moon, I was never able to make one like that, Luna, damn you and your nights he he... LUNA!?!?
The achievement hit me like a rock! The diaries are here! And arghh, yes, my arm is still dislocated, I look around, just one suitcase, my God... MARINDA!!!
I, in all of our study experiences through portals, have never seen anything like it, why was it teleported? It should be just a copy of it, a translucent image, not the whole thing!
Well, this one was very small, no more than six feet, four limbs, a strange object wrapped around its crown-like head and many other minor details, all of which were written in my notebook while watching the whole scene, the most unnerving it was the fact that he had a unicorn horn in his hand, that was brutal, I feel sorry for the poor pony that he attacked.
Normally beings like that would attack or something similar, he just stared at the princesses and when I couldn't contain my... 'disappointment' he stared at me, those little eyes, how big they become, he instantly dropped the horn and grabbed one of the two suitcases they were on his side, I even tried to stop, but with just a touch he broke my shield! And this is not the worst, he ran into one of the stained-glass windows of the tower, I thought it would be a tragedy, but from what rainbow said he disappeared in midair! Ok he is capable of magic, a point for him.
"This is a problem, Captain Golden Shield."
"Yes, your highness?"
"Prepare a search team, target, a bipedal creature similar to a minotaur without horns, wearing gray clothes and ... A crown? I want to search all over Canterlot and neighboring cities now!"
With his orders given the guard leaves the room, and all that remains is that suitcase.
"Ohhh-ohh what will it be! Maybe he has a lot of sweets! Ohhhhh MAYBE... Maybe he has a suitcase with a portable party too!!!"
I couldn't help laughing at the nonsense that pink say, but when she pulled that pink suitcase from her mane, I was forced to intervene
"Noooo twilight bad, very bad." seriously, how can she do that, the suitcase was one thing, now trying to get it back with a newspaper was not the smartest idea.
"Ok pinkie ok, but no parties now, ok?"
I believe that the insane nods she gave me are yes, pinkie being pinkie.
"Hmmm, girls, this is not his things?"
Yes, suitcase, focus Twilight, focus.
"Wait... That is not the---"
"THE CRYSTAL HEART!?!"
I can't stop my ears from bending, skies Cadence, look at the volume! But she is right, why did that being possess one of the most powerful artifacts of our kind?
"No"
"Celestia?"
"Cadence, stay away from this, this is not the heart"
Was not? As well, it was him, it was his magic signature, like... Yes, there is something wrong with that heart he... He is-
"It is empty, without an ounce of love, this is not our heart of crystal, it is his."
"What? I feel love inside him, yes, shouldn't that kind of love be, brotherly love?"
Almost as if answering Candence, the gem shines pink and a figure comes out of it! Forming with nothing but light, we saw the wings stand out, the horns, we were ready to fight! Maybe it's a weap---
"DAMIAAAAAAAAAAN, WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING?"
She was beautiful! A beautiful specimen of sapphire dragon! Female, I think, it's hard to say, why is she wearing so many clothes? It looks like hi-- ahhhhhh... It makes sense... Wait, that is--
"HAAAAAAAAAAAAA BLOOD" however much I consider Rarity a little... Scandalous... She was right, ignoring my academic self for now, no matter how difficult it is, there is a dragon in Canterlot covered in unknown blood and a knife in the claw.
"Who are you and why do you invade our kingdom covered in this crimson liquid, beast!"
How should I react? The princess Luna, not any princess, this is the princess who has the power to move the moon! How did I react? I laughed, laughed a lot, everyone was here, Damian's greatest trophies, Celestia, Cadence, the elements of harmony, really, where is Discord? Wait, that pegasus over there ... Isn't she the bearer of kindness? I never saw her before, I only read about her, Damian hates talking about it, according to him, one of the three major regrets in his life was killing her. This is weird, he wouldn’t play with it, is it another human commemorative date? Seriously because if it is, the last one didn't end well.
"Very good Damian, I liked them all, yeah, you are amazing and everything, can I cook in peace now?"
This... Is this him doing magic? I didn't know he knew how to make illusio--- illusions, any kind of illusion leaves a magical signature, light, without a ready-made spell or, well, with dragon eyes, you wouldn't see the thin layer fading and changing but I can , and I don't see the deformity of reality. I almost start to worry, seriously, Damian, you get over yourself every day.
"Damian? Who are you talking about that beast? That beast that threw himself out of the window?"
Can I see her wing pointing at a broken stained glass, he threw himself out of there? That's just like him, wait ... Where's the throne, and why is there a stained glass there and OH MY GOD! Is that a baby dragon?! How cute, looks ... A dragon of earth? Nope, maybe it's a mixture of violet or Karanian with a Vorpal? Something like that, when I took a step towards him, I think they didn’t take it well, a quick look at me I realized, I’m all bloody and with a knife, seriously, when I cut an artery of that foal?
"Stay away from him!"
Wait, that voice... I turn and see, a small purple alicorn, I feel my mouth slowly open, what... No... There is something wrong here... There is something very wrong here, I tighten it more intensely the knife in my hand, something tells me that things are going to get ugly, very ugly.
"Who are you? Where's Damian?"
"Fluttershy dear, time for your magic."
I see the pegasus moving slowly towards me, it is shaking all over, but it doesn’t matter, I point the knife at her and move as slowly as possible to the suitcase, she stops immediately and chokes with fear.
Damian wouldn’t play with Twilight, he wouldn't make a copy of her or something, even if his life depended on it, so... Who did this? Think Miranda, ok this is all real, Damian fucked with reality, ok, how to proceed?
The alicorns are a problem, Luna is almost flying at me, Cadence and Celestia are almost joining Luna, there is little left for that, the elements are all there, some wanting to come but afraid of the knife, others almost fainting and one of them jumping insanely in place, really? Are these the legendary heroines who defeated Tirek and Chrysalis in the past? Focus Miranda, remember what Damian said: "don't underestimate these ponies, they may seem weak and unprepared, but the most dangerous always act like that!"
Ok, I can take care of an alicorn, maybe two, but not four, more the elements, I'll need help, I'll need the big guns, by god, I hope he kept it in the right place.
One more step back, then I feel something, with a quick look I see a white horn is bigger than the average... Why... He never walks without it.
"What did you guys do to Damian!!!"
"Beast, we already told you! Your monster threw itself through the stained glass! Now explain yourself! Whose blood is this blood!"
There is mana in the horn, Damian put mana in it, and it’s still overflowing with mana, he fought! I lower myself and I grab the horn as fast as I can, never letting my guard down, think Miranda, what's going on...
"P-p-princess... That horn... He's not the-"
"Yes Twilight, that is my horn, not mine, of my counterpart in their world..."
I can hear sighs coming from them, each expressing in different ways, some sending me deadly looks, others moving away and a unicorn even passed out!
"Twilight, are you seeing that?"
"Y-yes princess... It has mana flowing through the horn! It is not something decorative, a trophy, it is a weapon! They are users of horns!!!"
It was instantaneous, everything clarified, I can barely see the silhouette of Celestia, only his eyes overflowing with power, correction, I cannot beat an alicorn, not in berserk mode, if I stay here it will end me!
I lived for over 1200 years, saw many things, did many things that I am proud and not proud of, I defeated countless beasts and with my old master I filled the Tartaro with creatures, but a horn user, NOT one, two! I thought I ended this horrendous practice 700 years ago! This can get complicated if there are more, if that thing managed to kill myself in his world, he is, at the very least, dangerous at Tirek's level, but now is not the time to worry about him, this dragon is the current problem, I feel the anger invading me, so many friends I have lost to those barbarians, how many friends of mine did these two kill in their world? I let out a blast of light on her, I will blind and arrest her, it was simple, simple until she became entirely pink and entered in the crystal heart, sigh defeated, why did I hesitate? rage? fear? I don't know, but I couldn't act fast enough.
"Ohh!!! She disappeared! She went to clean up for the party?"
"PINKIE! This is no time for that!"
"Calm Twilight, Luna, the heart."
Immediately my sister takes the jewel out of the bag and covers it in a dark blue bubble.
"Do you want me to break?"
"WHAT?!"
"Calm down Cadence, not Luna, keep it up, and stop anything from going in or out, Rainbow."
"Yes, your majesty?"
"Warn the guards and captains, I want everyone on high alert, walking at least in pairs, I want intensive searches in all corners of the kingdom!"
When Rainbow go through the doors and disappears, I turn now to the last thing left in the room, a suitcase.
Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
Memories of the past: Snow and ice
Author's Note
Detail, I do not remember the name of the story that introduced the caribou to the site, but they, their culture and everything else is not mine !!! I just found an interesting detail to put in history and well, it has already become public domain already right? as Discord with being a draconecus, I am almost sure that your species is made by fanbase and not official but everyone adopts it!
I will be making a long chapter of more than 3k words and two short ones in a row, the long ones will be made to advance the story and the short ones will be about 1k 1.5k words for 'memories of the past' chapters, or character development / filler
Memories of the past: Snow and ice
God is cold, well, that's what you get for walking through the great north, a true desert of ice, my God how cold it is, wherever I look there is snow behind? Snow, right? Snow, left? A little hill again, look, this is new, damn, how I wanted to be Miranda now, she figured out how to get into the heart of crystal and now she doesn’t get out of it, Jesus she even makes a fire there and somehow doesn’t die from suffocation , damn I was never so jealous of anyone, not even when my brother won that arm wrestling, ahhh, so many memories, it almost manages to make me smile, I would have, if it weren't for the spear a few meters from my face, yes, it is important to look ahead.
"Who are you, stranger?"
"I'm just a traveler, you know, a fan of the weather."
I look ahead expecting another yak, but no, there in front of me was a caribou, god as I was looking for them, seriously they have to map this area.
"No kidding, what do you want!"
Sigh, yeah, it seems that the fact that they don't like outsiders who have a boy between their legs is true, well, I have no head to fight here, not to mention that it is very cold.
"I am Damian from New Equestria, I am looking for a meeting with your boss, and preferably the elders too."
"Damian ... Wait ... Aren't you the guy who destroyed the crystal empire!?!?"
God how the news runs in this solitude of hell.
"I thought you were a minotaur!"
"And I thought you guys would be bigger, look, can you point the village at me? I'm freezing here!"
Heaven, he almost instigates me to taste the taste of the caribou meat, almost, maybe I’ll get some from their village, well, don’t kill the guide, right?
I keep following him for a while, he periodically looks back and asks me quick questions, I answer the best I can, but God how annoying he really is, not as if the fact that I have been carrying two huge suitcases for more than EIGHTEEN HOURS IN THE MIDDLE OF AN ICE DESERT AND MIRANDA IS PROBABLY EATING MARSHMALLOWS NOW! No, of course it's not that, it's the fucking scar that Luna left on my back, bitch from hell, seriously, I think---
"And how was it? I mean, face Celestia?"
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
I am obliged to comment, it is a beautiful village, of course if you ignore the slaves everywhere, detail, all females, some even rubbed against me, disgusting, had all kinds, yaks, ponies, some balls of huge fur which I think are slaves ... And of course, the female caribou, God, had several, but that doesn’t matter, what matters is that I’m in a tent, not any tent, their boss’s tent, a big brown caribou with huge horns, sitting on a big golden throne, the boss obviously, let's be direct.
"Then your highness, I come---"
I am interrupted by the lifting of his hoof, ahh arrogance, as I miss my throne and torment some ponies, the best I can do is a mare as a foot support, and man, she is a very bad support.
"So, were you the one who ended up equestria and the crystal empire?"
"Correction your highness, equestria was reborn, the empire ... Let's say he shrunk."
"Ah ah ah, I like you, bring some slaves for this warrior."
I shuddered only at the idea: "Your highness will not be necessary, I do not seek the pleasure of the flesh, only that of knowledge."
He didn't like it, can you see it on his face, my god when I got so good at reading animals?
"I see... but tell me, what do you have to offer for the knowledge we have?"
Ok, time to negotiate, I grab one of the suitcases and open it, several gold coins reside inside it as well as some precious stones, I put a smile on my face, how long have I not done this? Negotiate, ahhh how I miss the land, I have to do this more.
"No, I don't want gold or worthless gems, I can have that by exchanging slaves."
What? Are fucking gold coins, how can he not want?! You mean I brought this shit here for nothing!? Jesus...
"Look at your highness, I came from afar in search of help, knowledge, and I bring the finest gems and the purest gold, surely you can beautify your slaves and bathe your monuments with gold !!!"
"You know stranger, there are two types of beings in this world, those who repudiate our lifestyle, and those who adore him, I can't say which one you are yet ..."
Yes, the infamous slave and sexist culture of the caribou, four years ago I would have found it horrendous, sick and repulsive, now ... Heeee ...
"Look at your highness, I admire your complex culture and everything, I even like this pony that you brought in support, but my time is short, is there anything else you want?"
He stares at me for a while, thinking, judging me, but it was when he smiled that I saw it, I won.
"I see that you have a beautiful necklace there with you, my people tell his legends, an amulet that will give to the bearer the powers of an alicorn, I want him."
"Done!"
"And all those trinkets here," he says, signaling the suitcase full of gold and gems, "it will be a goodwill gift, right?"
Sigh, difficult dealer, but that's what I can do, I didn't come here to leave empty-handed, "done!"
"Haha, so there is a party!!! Bring the slaves!"
My cue, "I would love your highness, but as I said, my time is short and I need to see the papers and the elders."
"Really, a peculiar being, whatever, if you want to go see those old people you can go! I already have what I want.
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
I don’t know if it was worth it, they had almost no knowledge about travel between dimensions or how to break magical seals of the highest level, almost useless, I hope never see they again, and I just got a caribou to eat, female obviously, better, better than anything.
"Mr.?"
What? I thought I heard someone calling me, seriously, I'm already hearing things, I have to stop and--
"Sir please stop!"
Yes, I heard something, I turn and see, a yak with several caribous and a pony in her hair, shaking, what?
"Thanks to the heavens he heard us! Please sir Damian, executioner of Equestria, save us from this place!"
Fuck, the news is flying, even slaves at this end of the world are linked in the news, "what do you want," man, it was too cold to try to look like a bad guy.
"Sir, we ran away! We know your story, and we beg for help, we can't go back there!"
This yak speaks very well to a yak, "why should I help? This is not my problem."
"Sir, please, they will beat us up if we return, and we will have to... that..."
I sigh, I hate situations like that, I pull my suitcase closer to me, I lightly rub the Crystal Heart and I see it shine, "Miranda, yes or no?"
"What?"
"Yes or no?
"Hmmmm... YES!"
Sigh, children, I really have to educate you better, "ok, I will help you, but the ponies stay."
"What!? You can't do that; she is a slave like us!"
"I don't care, you have a pony here, or she become food, or she come back, this is the agreement."
"Done!" I expected to hear a caribou, maybe that intellectual yak, I didn't expect the only pony of the group to say that!
"Seriously, would you become food for them?"
"Yes, anything is better than going back there, until death, and if it helps my friends, I don't care what happens to my body."
Ok, she has balls, iron balls, sacrificing herself to save her friends, noble on her part, pathetic, but noble, she looks in the eye of death and doesn't hesitate.
"Killed how many?"
"What?"
"Killed how many to escape?"
"Two..."
This pony, I recognize a murderer when I see one, she killed, and it was not just two.
I throw a small stone and a black horn at them, "use the horn to keep warm, and follow the path that the stone points, then with luck, you can survive." I turn around and walk away, I can hear one of them crying and the other wiping her nose, but not the pony, she stayed there, still looking at me, man I hate this place.
Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
Memories of the past: Judgment
Author's Note
Yes, this chapter is very short, do what, I could stretch more, but it would be forced and I don't want to do this with the history, so... sorry?
Memories of the past: Judgment
Why? It's the only thing that goes through my head as I look at Celestia and Luna sitting on her thrones, several guards around me, weapons ready to attack me! As if I were a monster, a criminal or something!
"w-w - why? What did I do princess? Please forgive me, I had no intention!"
"Silence!" I shivered, her wings spread in an attempt to appear bigger "I understand your frustration, but we cannot open the portal, the dangers that can occur if humans detect the portal are immeasurable!"
"B-b-but princess! It's my home! You brought me to this world! you... you said that in a month you would send me back, and this month has passed! please princess, my family..."
"Understand Damian, can you guarantee that your species, the way they fear the unknown will not attack us? My kingdom? My world? I saw what your species are capable of, killed yourself by the millions in two great bloody wars and almost exploded with those mega bombs, I can't risk it. "
"N-no princess, please," I feel the chains tightening "see, yes some humans are violent, some are stupid, others are ambitious, but there are always those good at heart, who want the best for the world, both."
"Don't talk like I didn't consider it, Damian, but no matter how I see it, if I open the portal, those mega bombs will rain on my world, killing millions, I, along with my sister and other powerful beings, will only be able to save two cities, a life for millions, is not a difficult calculation. "
"But ... But it's MY LIFE! you can't do that! YOU PROMISED!"
"Look at how you talk to the princess, monkey!" damn guards and their spears
"Damian ... Don't think I do that with a smile on my face, it makes my heart sad to do that to you, but in all possible situations, or humans die, or my species perishes, I'm really sorry, Damian, really, sorry ... "
Why ... They took me out of my world by accident, they show me the 'beauties of friendship' and everything, for in the end, on the day that I would see my family, my house, she oppose! Why God?!
"P-p-princess ... Please feel sorry for me, I have a daughter and wife, they need me, my father has a heart problem, I don't even know how he is... WHAT IF NO ONE SEE THE PORTAL! Put me in a desert or something, but please send me home pleaseee. "
"Luna ... Send Discord to close the portal to his world, and tell him to make it impossible to reopen, seal that world forever, and send him to the dungeons!"
"Nooooooooooooooo!!!"
Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
I can't waste time, god how did i forget Miranda there? Man, fear really makes you do stupid things, ok, focus, open the suitcase, a nice view on my opinion, several pegasus master feathers, and just below the pen a small cutie mark drawing of the pony owner of the pen, if if it is a griffin it will have, well, a drawing of a griffin. But this is not what I want, I pull the support that keeps them as carefully as I can, the last thing I want is to mess up these feathers... Again, well, now there are the mane or tail threads of the normal ponies, seriously why did I put the horns in the bottom? I repeat the process and see my biggest trophies, several horns in a row, each with a rune underneath representing the last magic that the horn owner used, well, before I stole it.
it's blue, a moon cutie mark with a wand, I remember it, arrogant and calling itself the savior of Canterlot, pathetic, at least it was a powerful unicorn that left me a spell of illusions, maybe I use, I look for others, that of Luna, useless, serious as I hate her, she made a point of making her horn useless, I mean, it can be useful, but not now.
Ahhhh there it is, another blue horn, cutie mark a swirl with some stars, this si was a challenge, he enters a top 3 of the most difficult fights easy, and the magic missile he left me only makes the situation even better!
Ok, Cadence's horn ... Yes, maybe in fact, a love spell is not the most attractive of the weapons but it is very useful in fact, ok now my biggest prize is the Celestia horn---
It's empty, yes, I was using ...
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
How the fuck did I miss him ?! Shit, shit shit shit, god, this is going to be a tough fight, maybe I have to use my magic (shakes,) NO, no fear, this is for Miranda! I will use every last drop of mana I have if necessary!
I sigh, I look at my coat, the horn of Tw --- her horn, for some reason I never feel fear or anxiety using it, I think it’s because it reminds me of that day, the day I broke free, besides I have one another white horn, very useful for shields, well, her brother was very annoying to kill, full of shields, but one time he missed, and I got it right.
I feel my stomach growling, I haven't eaten anything all day, and it's already dark outside, the Everfree forest is dangerous at night, and hunger---
Wait... If the princesses are alive... That means... They are ALIVE !!! God I can already taste the meat of alicorn in my mouth! Simply the best meat, without discussion, as simple as that! Man... Dude!!! I forgot a little in New Canterlot !!! I was saving it as a birthday present for Miranda! If I had known that... THIS was going to happen I would have eaten that beauty earlier, damn it.
If I am not mistaken in the basement of this castle have some preserved foods, man, I hate vegetables and greens, but it is what I have for today, why tomorrow ... Tomorrow they will see, hang on there Miranda, dad is coming, and she is very pissed!
"Mr Speenceeeeer ..."
Glup, and a little scared, but I'm going, hang on dear!!!
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
I raise the morning sun admiring the beauty that only my sun can show, and of course the pair of wings behind me reveals my sister, although it does not seem, she is upset.
"Did you find him?"
"I don't know, I mean I saw his dream door, but ... He didn't dream."
"And when did that stop you?"
"No, you didn’t understand sister, I couldn’t get in not because he didn’t dream, but because he was drunk!"
"Drunk? Ahh yes, Drunk's can't even dream or something like that right?"
"Yes, what if ... It wasn't a coincidence?"
"How would he know? This is not in any book that I know Luna, and I read all the books published in the kingdom."
"Don't act like a fool Celestia, he had his horn, he's not just anybody, did you see that suitcase ?! There were so many, not to mention the feathers and threads, maybe he's a bounty hunter or something."
I couldn't help but laugh "a bounty hunter killed me? Luna, how soft do you think I am?"
Her look, my little sister, was so cute, "I would never judge you like that, but ... I'm scared celestia, did you see it? In that suitcase, down there was ... Was ..."
Sigh, she was right, "yes ... We have a problem with our hands, has Discordia already answered the letters?"
"No, but he still gets the letters, damn it, if he were here it would be so much easier."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After removing everyone from the room, only my sister, Cadence and Crepusculo and I were in the room, and in front of us was a suitcase, and in it there were several things that seemed to have come out of a horror movie, the feathers were at least, strange , there are pegasus that collect feathers, but it is a little practiced hobby and it is almost a taboos, the mane threads were, well threads, if they do not have a cutie mark drawing underneath I could even confuse them with normal fabric threads, and that one yellow thread with a cutie mark apple ... Twilight did not take it well, and even went out to get some air, however ... What scared me the most, which makes my heart freeze with fear, which made Cadence tremble and Luna sweat cold was that crooked blue horn and the caribou horn together, that pair of horns ... They were ... They were ...
"Discord..."
"Twilight? When did you come back?"
"He, he killed Discord ?!"
"Calm down Twilight, may not be him!"
"IT'S LITERALLY WRITTEN HIS NAME OVER THERE !!!"
She was right, there was no denying it, Discord died... Whatever that thing is, it’s out there, and we have to find it immediately!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That memory still sends a chill down my spine, it killed Discord... It killed me... How many more? Luna? Cadence? I hope not.
With a heavy breath I prepare for the day, many nobles, banal problems, and embarrassing situations await me ... Is it too much to ask for a day off? A day without a monster threatening my kingdom ... (sigh) the burdens of being a princess.
"What face is this sister? Worried about the monster?"
"A little bit, what about the dragon?"
"She tried to leave a few times, but the bubble prevented it, I increased the guard and dismissed candence, she spoke to the dragon for a while, now she is locked in her room and doesn’t leave, I tried to talk to her but... Well , if you want to try."
I nod and see my sister go to her tower, I will take an hour of my time to see her, now, the court awaits me...
Heavens when the court got so annoying? I think I've been really stressed out lately, well, Cadence.
This very pretty door, decorated with blue crystals and hearts, her old room... For her to enter here... What did that dragon say to her?
"Cadence? Can I come in?"
"Yea."
"What? Speak louder please."
"Yes Celestia, you can come in."
I hear the lock opening and revealing an old pink room, with several countertops and mane brushes, and a small bed where an alicornio resided.
"How are you, Cadence? Luna told me that you talked to the dragon and--"
"Dragoness."
"What?"
"She prefers to be called that, or Miranda."
"I understand, well, I think I was very clear when I said that I didn't want anyone talking to her until tonight."
"I know auntie, it's just that, it was the Crystal Heart! How should I act? What do you think Twilight would do if it were the element of magic?"
She has a point, but two mistakes don't make a right, "what did she tell you? I need to know."
"She ... She knows a lot of things aunt, she knows about Sombra, she knows where Chrysalis is! But at the same time, she doesn't seem to know anything, she says we were supposed to be dead ..."
"Who?"
"All of us! You, me, Luna ... Until... UNTIL MY BABY !!!"
And with that she cries, leaning on me, heaven ... Even a baby, they have to be stopped, I will advance the interrogation, I send a spell warning my assistant to postpone all the day's appointments, Blueblood will go crazy , but I have to have priorities, and now my priority is Cadence!
It is now, I am in a cell, in the lowest cell in Canterlot, in front of me this copy, this Crystal Heart, and inside it, a drag--- dragoness, on my side is my sister and twilight, I dismissed Cadence, it is she better stay in the Crystal Empire for now.
"Are you there?"
Laughter sounds from the heart "nope, nobody here!"
Heaven, what am i looking at? A child? "Enough tricks and jokes, I want to talk to you."
"Then talk, I have nowhere to go."
"Who are you and what are you doing here?"
"Don't play idiot Celestia, you know the answer to both questions."
"How would i know your name?"
"Cadence."
She is smart, very smart, how to proceed ... For so many years that I have not dealt with horn users, dangerous and cunning beings, "who was your partner ---"
"WAS YOUR THAT BEAST WITHOUT HAIR !!!
Luna, have tact.
"What? DAMIAN! Where is he! What have you done to him!"
I can feel the crystal heart fluttering, she is trying to get out, while Luna holds the spell, it will not happen.
"Calm down Miranda, I guarantee I didn't hurt Damian, I just want to understand the situation better."
"Really? So let me out, it's so boring to talk from the heart."
"Boring? It was you who came in there, silly dragon!"
"Ahhh Luna, creator of the nights, really, a beautiful spell, has a flaw here and there, but a beautiful spell!"
"Ah! Failure? My spells have no failures!"
"You say princess."
This conversation is going nowhere "Twilight my faithful stude--- friend, didn't you have any questions for this dragoness?"
Almost as if awakening from a trance, Twlilight stops writing on that notebook and clarifies her voice, "ok ahmmm, hmmm so ... You, no ... Maybe ... How old are you?"
(laughs) really? Is this the big question? Sometimes I forget what my ex student is like.
"Ahah ... Ahahahahhaahahahhahahahaha !!!"
It took me by surprise, I even felt my wings flexing by reflex. "Seriously ... Of all the questions i expected to hear from the infamous Twilight Sparkle, the last thing i thought would be this, ahahah, Jesus ..."
"This Jesus, is another horn user!?"
"What? No, no, he is ... He is a good man, that's all."
"Dragon?"
"No, human."
"Human? Like your partner?"
"Precisely."
"And what does this good man think of horn thieves?"
"Ahah ... You never cease to surprise me, he ... I think he wouldn't like us very much."
"And still call out his name, can I know why?"
"Why do you say Celestia name sometimes?"
"I understand, so he is a deity ... Hmmm ..."
It's amazing to see how twilight manages to ask questions while writing another question, we could certainly take away a lot of important facts if we leave them alone, now you see, then we have another deity in their world, this can get complicated and is escalating to a war too fast .
"Ok ... I see, going back to the original question, how old are you?"
"I'm almost seven."
"Seven ?! What do you mean seven ?! Seven thousand!?"
"No, seven, you know, like ponies, I'm almost seven."
"I'm pretty sure that you looked older than seven years."
"Swear? How old would, Sparkle, give me?"
For some reason, I felt a hint of poison in her voice, I wonder why ...
"Hmmmm, considering what I know about the biology of sapphire dragons? Between 40 and 120."
"ONE HUNDRED TWENTY YEARS !!! I WILL KILL YOU YOUR DIRTY BITCH---"
"ENOUGH OF THESE LOW WORDS MIRANDA, let us have decency here." I hate to have to use Canterlot's real voice, but I thought it was necessary, I have to remember to talk to Twilight after this interrogation.
"You have a little acid vocabulary for a child."
"Uff ... Next question Sparkle ..."
"Sorry but why this explosion? I'm almost sure that your appearance fits the proposed age."
"Sparkle, how old would you give that dragon baby?"
"Spike? He's fourteen."
"What? No jokes please."
"I'm not kidding, I grew up with him and I'm seven years older than him, Spike is fourteen years old."
"My god... What---"
"Who is this god? Jesus?"
"What? No, it's his father and --- look, that dragon baby can't be fourteen! He would be twice my age!"
"I can guarantee that this is his age, Miss Miranda, by the way, is a very peculiar name for a dragon, isn't it?"
"Isn't spike a flower that smells right?"
"I see, was it Damian who gave you that name?"
A yep was all we got, twilight looked in his notebook, pondering which question to ask now, seriously, two deities, this could end up really bad, damn Discord where are you?
"How many of you are out there?"
"Be more specific miss interrogation"
"Ok ... You know, horn users."
"Well ... This is a difficult question, I don't really like to use horns, I prefer to solve the things in the claw, you know? But if I have to kick ... Maybe ... Maybe a hundred, yes, something like that, at least it was like that two years ago. "
ONE HUNDRED USERS OF HORNS, my Faust, the situation got out of control, heaven ... How many dead, I can feel the sadness invade my heart, why, why my counterpart was so weak! And those deities! "AND THESE DEITIES DID NOTHING TO STOP THIS INSANITY"
"God, look at the tone Celestia, it will hurt your little princesses' ears."
"ANSWER!!!"
"Hemmm ... Jesus is a radical passifist, and God, from what Damian told me, he took a vacation of about two thousand years."
A deity that doesn't fight and another lazy and probably dead, my Faust, think Celestia, ok, maybe that doesn't lead to war, but, a hundred horn users are too many, I can see twilight preparing another question, but Luna interrupts it.
"Tell me, dragoness, where do you think you are?"
"Oh I don't think, I know, cell number 560 of canterlot, the darkest cell in this castle."
"Don't talk nonsense, the cells only go up to five hundre---"
"You better not play dumb, I'm talking about the secret cells, the cell of the worst of the worst, and it goes up to six hundred."
"HOW YOU--"
"Shhhhh ... Calm luna, it doesn't have to be like this, I like it here, it's calm and everything, the problem is the spiders, but other than that it's a really cool place."
"Cool? Here are trapped the worst beings that ever dared to step on Equestria, beings tha---"
"Bla-bla-bla I know, believe, and about the prisoners, we let them go!"
What? I think I heard wrong, it seems that she said she released all the prisoners of the lower level, I clean my ear slightly and I beg her: "Sorry, you said you released who?"
"Duhh! The prisoners."
"WHY DID YOU MAKE SUCH BARBARIANITY !?"
"It looked cool at the time, I think, and Damian just wouldn't feed them, so you know, he added the useful to the nice."
"Wait ... Are you telling me that you invaded the palace, passed the guards, entered the dungeon, and found the passage to the lower floors just to release them?!?!"
"No, I didn't even know Damian at the time, he just killed you and took canterlot for him."
That was it, I was in shock, Luna too and twilight seemed a few shades more green, she just said that he killed me in the greatest tranquility possible!
"What happened princess? Did the cat eat your tongue? God how did i want to meet you, but you know, you are not all that, unless you have flames in your eyes, that was cool, i mean, it would have been if that anger didn't was for me. "
"Can you answer me one more question ..."
"Say it."
"Discord, how?"
"I don't know, it was Damian who killed the god of chaos, in fact it was he who killed almost all the big fish, I arrived too late at the party."
"So... Is he dead?"
"Did I speak Portuguese? Obviously he is."
That's what I wanted to hear, I have to find Discord now! I turn around and start to leave, "come on, we're done for today!"
"What? Now that the conversation was getting good!"
"Princess, I can stay here, I have a few more questions."
"NO, don't leave me with the miss interrogation please!"
I look quickly at Luna, her slight nod was the answer, "ok Twilight, but follow the safety instructions ok?"
"Yes Princess!"
"Noooooo!"
It was staggering monumentally, someone. Killed. Discord! I know that Luna realized my concerns, she always does, as I wish I could read her as well as she reads me.
"Sister, I know your heart is full of anguish, but we will go through this together!"
"I know Luna, it's just that, of all the threats that hit Equestria, how many of them, Discord could end with a claw crack?"
"Hmm, there was--"
"The one with the Tirek is not worth it, of course."
"I ... All i think."
"That's why! Discord is very powerful, even turned into stone it was still impossible to kill him, and that's what scares me, not that he kills me, or heaven! Kills you! But killing Discord! Is unprecedented!"
"I understand, but let's g----"
In all my years of life, few times have I seen luna widen her eyes like that, but that look accompanies one thing, problem, big problem!
"What happened sister? HE IS HERE?!"
"The spell ... It's gone ..."
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
Twilight... no!!!"

Memories of the past: Last day of Crystal Empire
Author's Note
well, the chapter was too big, I thought about separating but I'm too lazy to create another name for the title
Memories of the past: Last day of Crystal Empire
Today ... Today may be the last day of my beautiful kingdom, I look from the balcony, admiring the crystalline buildings that rise through the city below and the castle, really, a beautiful view, if you ignore the monster outside the empire, there, at the top of a hill is a monster, the worst being that has ever crawled across the planet, a human, wearing the horns of countless warriors who tried to stop him and failed, adorning himself with feathers like trophies on his head, and mane strands are being used for decorative purposes, this thing is coming, and with it comes your army, countless ponies, griffins and whatever has entered your path constitute that army, controlled by a nefarious device that clouds the mind, and numbs the senses , if we had another week ... Just one, we would have found a way to break the spell, but now it’s too late, Sombra and his army couldn’t stop the human, now he’s at the door of my kingdom and the Crystal Heart can't maintain the shield up for more than a couple of hours, when the shield falls, the Cristal Empire will fall with him ... Do not delude me like my aunt Luna, who still believes in victory ... Luna, she wanted to die in a glorious fight against this monster beside her sister than to have come to the empire, but now she is here, and the look she faces the human is, for want of a better word, is creepy.
"Mom ... I'm scared." my daughter, Flurry Heart, a mare already, heaven ... Tomorrow she would be eighteen, now I don't know if we will pass today.
"Calm down dear, go to your room, mom and aunt Luna are discussing important things here."
"I don't want to! I know something is wrong! Uncle Sombra has disappeared! And Dad doesn't even look me in the eye anymore, he just trains the soldiers!"
Shining ... Really? "He is very busy with his work, but tomorrow ... Tomorrow he will have all the time in the world to play with you ok? We might even see Aunt Celestia! What do you think?"
I feel the furious look that Luna sends me, but I ignore it, not now Luna "Aunt Celestia? Is she okay? She doesn't answer my letters anymore ..."
"She is ok, dear now, please go to your room, Mom is having an important meeting here."
"OK..."
When I hear the door close let out a sigh, she can't know ... Never ... Damn Sombra why did you go alone to face that monster ?! You would have been a great help now ... Damn ... Who am I fooling, he got us two days and we didn’t take advantage of that time.
"You shouldn't lie to her Cadence ... She has to know."
"Know? Know what? That today is probably the last day of her life? That we are the last country of ponies that exists? That has no help coming from? That all the elements, Celestia and Discord are dead?!?!? Tell me Luna! Why I still don't know which one to choose !!! "
"I ... Look Candence, she has to know, not because it will be her last day, but because it will be the biggest day of her life, the day when we, the last alicorn, will defeat that monster, and rebuild Equestria ! "
"Stop lying to yourself Luna! We lost, he won ... We are outnumbered twelve to one, there is no victory, when that shield falls, we fall with him."
"If you want to keep thinking about it I don't care, what matters is, are you going to sit here and die? Let that beast kill your daughter? Because he knows who she is, and he knows that you are here, he will make a point of kill her right in front of you Cadence, will you allow it ?, will you allow your husband Shining Armor to die in vain? She is there, preparing the soldiers the best he can, and he will not hide, he will fight Cadence, What will you do? Will you fight beside him or will you hide here? "
I feel a whirlwind of emotions, anger, shame, fear, and ... There in the middle of this whirlwind, I feel something I haven't felt for months ... Hope.
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
Eleven hours ago I lowered the moon, Cadence believed that was my last sight of the moon, silly mare, there will be countless nights yet to come! I will do today, the most beautiful of the nights, after defeating this monster in human skin, I, PRINCESS LUNA SHOTING STAR, WILL DO THE BEST OF NIGHTS! IN HONOR TO ALL THOSE WHO HAVE FALLEN AGAINST THIS DEMON, IN HONOR OF MY SISTER, IN HONOR TO THE ELEMENTS, IN HONOR OF EQUESTRIA !!!
I feel a smile of pride forming, I look at my armor, with plates of the purest steel, blue as the bluest sea, and protective runes everywhere, on my left is my spear, with light details that I made myself, referring to all my history, from my rise, until my fall as Nighmare Moon and my return to Equestria, and on my right, this is my sister's sword and shield, this sword and her shield were all her personal guards they managed to recover, I will carry these weapons with pride, because while I use them, I know that my sister still watched over me, guided me, and helped me to kill that monster! I hear Cadence flying beside me, tears in his eyes, "it seems that you decided to accompany me in this fight Cadence."
When his words were spoken we didn’t see, a river of fire coming out of that little hill, the whole shield was engulfed by flames as yellow as the sun that watches over us, and this incessant river continued for countless minutes until it stopped abruptly, all of us, soldiers, captains and princesses, we saw with a slight fear the shield fall.
"SOLDIERS OF EQUIS, TODAY WE DO NOT FACE A SIMPLE MONSTER, TODAY WE FACE THE BUTCHER OF OUR SPECIES, TODAY WE FACE A DEMON THAT IS NOT LOOKING FOR ANYTHING MORE THAN DESTRUCTING US, TODAY MY FAITHFUL SUBJECTS, WILL WE WIN THAT BEAST THAT COMES AT OUR GATE, OUR HOME! THREATENS US WITH HIS ARMY! SO? WHO'S WITH ME !!! "
"WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!"
It begins.
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
I am the High-Captain of Equestria, king of the Crystal Empire, and one of the greatest fighters of the war against the Griffin Federation, and even so, all these titles are worth nothing, medals are not taking up arms and going to face our enemies, no are helping the wounded or shooting arrows at the human, no, titles are useless, now I’m just another soldier in the middle of this sea of swords, spears and arrows that has become the central gate of the city, in the heavens, the few pegasus that escaped from Equestria and managed to get here are facing the ... Candence calls them shells, Shadow called them plans of the past, these soulless beings, these ... Shells, are innumerable, each pegasus has to deal with more than four of them to we have a chance to win the fight in the sky, the fight here on earth on the other hoof... If it weren't for the considerably slow response time and the fact that we are funneling them we would have already been slaughtered, however the rivers and rivers of ponies that come don't stop, griffins fall from the skies, snatching the poor soldiers and taking them to the skies, they never come back ... Or fall,
"RETREAT! MAKE A DEFENSIVE LINE NEAR RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS!"
Every step taken back means more of these shells within the empire, and the explosions in the sky do not indicate that things are going well, Luna and Cadence are going to face the human and I haven’t seen them for almost half an hour, their only sign of life is the color of the clouds, which sometimes turns blue, sometimes yellow and even black, the only signs that a fight is on, that there is still hope!
Then, a crash, so loud that even the shells stopped what they were doing and looked at the skies, almost like a truce, and we saw ourselves, falling from the sky a dark blue figure, flames coming out of it. "No..."
Everyone knows what it is, who she is, I can see the fear in the eyes of the few ponies of Equestria, and the despair in the crystal ponies, "FIRM, KEEP THE POSITION, DON'T STAND BACK, KEEP FIRM !!!"
Reinvigorated by the almost desperate words I shouted, they maintain their position, they have to maintain, because if these shells pass through us, there will be nothing between them and our families in the castle.
I release a magic missile, another one sending several ponies flying, but their places are quickly filled with new ones, they are countless, so I see, a big minotaur running towards us, I try to stop with missiles or shields, but he ignores them, even the holes in his chest did not stop him from hitting our shield wall, it was a disaster, several died, several were paralyzed, but our enemies didn’t, they continued, and in less than a minute our defensive line was gone, "RETREAT TO THE CASTLE! LOCK IT! "
"Captain and you?"
"I'm going to get Cadence and I'm going, I want a circular shield wall, understood ?!
"Y-y-yes captain!"
With that I teleport to the highest tower in the city, and I see, Cadence being chased by that monster, with a snap of fingers he creates huge fireballs and throws them at my wife while laugh insanely, I create a shield as fast as I can , stopping those black flames from reaching her
"RUN CADENCE! I'LL KEEP HIM BUSY!"
"NO, HE WILL END YOU!"
"I WILL BE OK, WHEN IT FINISHES HERE I WILL RUN TO THE PALACE!"
"SHINING I--"
"DAMN CADENCE LEAVE NOW!"
I feel one more of the fireballs hitting my shield, I also see it cracking and breaking, and there in the sky, a few centimeters from the shattered shield, was Cadence, tears welling up in her eyes as she mouthed an inaudible word, and with a pop , she disappears, ok ... She is safe now ... I feel the mana of my horn cool down, however, I am removed from my trance by a fireball, I cannot let them pass, the castle gates are being pushed, in seconds they fell! Ok Shining, it's time to shine.
I put everything I have, countless shields appear in the skies, preventing rains of fireballs that come out of the clouds, trapping everything that flies away of the castle, covering every window and stained glass, and covering the castle gate, even if only a few seconds, I'll give them those seconds! "NO ONE WILL PASS!"
With each fireball one of the various shields falls apart, and he is aiming at me, every second has less shields around me, but I cannot run now, I cannot retreat, I have to protect the castle I have to protect Cadence I have to pro---
BOOOOM!!!
I feel a colossal pain, when I realize I'm falling, falling from the tower, I see the place I was, destroyed by a magic missile, I feel a cold run through my body before looking at the floor, sorry dear, I wiil not be able to get there...
Ahhh, satisfaction, there is no better word to describe this moment, Luna gave a hell of a job to kill, but who knew she would freeze when she saw Celestia's horn? And without Luna helping her, Cadence was an easy target, until that unicorn got in the way, boring guy, full of shields, but one hour he ran out of shields, then it was just waiting for the right time and BAM! He was gone, he has potential, then I take his horn and Luna's horn, now it's time to play!
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
"Cadence where are youuuu?"
I stop in front of a door with the Crystal Heart symbol and smile, add all the strength that my body allows and kick the door, the hinges give way and fly out and inside, she was, Princess Mi Amore Cadenza and her daughter , this will be a glorious fight! I can already feel the adrenaline ---
"No, please no..."
"What?"
"Please ... Not in front of my daughter ..."
She was crying, CRYING, where was that warrior spirit? That desire to kill me? Did it die with Luna? Perhaps.
"Mom..."
"Shhh dear, everything will be okay ok? Mom take care of that."
With that she gives a kiss on the daughter's forehead, and she passes out, a sleep spell, cowardly, boring, but extremely effective.
"(sniff) can we leave her room at least?"
"Why should I? Actually, why shouldn't I kill you now?"
"From a mother to a father."
I feel my heart racing, how does she know that? Maybe ... No, Celestia would never say that, and Luna is not the most talkative of all, so how?
"You have ten seconds to explain yourself, how do you know that? If not, i'll blow up this castle!"
"I can see the soul of somepony Spencer , looking into eyes, and your eyes tell me that you have a daughter."
"..."
"Please."
"OK."
Why am i leaving the room? Only they are missing! They are the last targets on my list! Damn why? I don't detect any spells, so why? Why do I feel my eyes moisten, why do I feel my heart racing? I leave the room and walk to a corner and wait, I see her leave and different from what I thought, she stayed there closed the door and remained still.
"Has ... Is there any chance that you won't kill her? I do anything, I cast any spell and I give you my horn, I tell you where Celestia kept her personal file, where Luna keeps her weapons I ---"
"I want a way to go home."
"I ... I can't do this ... No one can."
"I know, but I'll find a way, even if I go to all the great libraries in the world!"
"Are you afraid ... Why?
"Am I scared? Cadence, I invaded your kingdom and my soldiers are all coming to your precious castle, I don't think I'm the one scared!"
"You are afraid ... To come home, afraid that they fear what you have become."
"WHAT DID YOU MAKE ME!!!"
"Spencer, nobody knew, I mean, do you really think we would allow that?"
"You allowed it, now i'm here, and you're living too much for someone so insignificant."
"Spencer, I know you're angry, but my daughter was very young, she had no way of knowing! I beg of you, just as I still see goodness in your heart, please spare her !!!"
"You talk too much Cadence."
I take a horn from my coat, it's is a white horn that I got from one of the Canterlot nobles, my second best magic missile horn, she doesn't even deserve the expense of the other horn.
She seems to understand the message and points the horn at me, let's finish this, I saw the lightning coming towards me, it was just a matter of deflecting and shooting the missile, it hit her in the chest, she flew a few meters and entered the wall.
I walk as slowly as I can, with heavy steps, I know she is alive, alicorn are difficult to kill, and that is the best part!
"P-p-please, spare her, I beg you ..."
"Where were you while i begged?"
Done, a missile right in the face, she was dead, the target now is her daughter, I open the door and there she is, calm serene in her bed, so many things were going through my head, would this be the fight I would have with her? Killing a child while sleeping is not my thing, but doing what, I put the same horn that I used a little bit against her head and ... And ... Why am I hesitating? It’s just letting go of the mana, and it’s over, I ended my revenge, but why? Why the fuck can't i kill her?
"Mr Spenceeeeeeer, what do you think you are doing with my niece?"
"Damn it."
"And better not to do that!"
I let out a sigh, obviously it was not compassion or something, I would never feel it for these ponies, it had to be her, I take a small pill in my coat, is the last one? How the universe has a sense of humor.
Psfuu
She is dead, my vengeance is complete, all of them dead, each of them, and why, now, after all this ... I feel nothing but ... JOY !!!
Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
Here is the tip, DO NOT DRINK!
Man ... Here's a tip ... If you have problems with alcohol, and find a wine cellar, don't drink until you're not hungry, seriously, my head is spinning is a miracle that it is not even noon, god, I drank a lot.
I get up slowly, bottles all over the place, I feel everything distorted and I even hear some whispers, man, I need a drink, I walk to a nice bottle of wine.
"Hmmmm done in 467 ... This is a good one."
I take some more, when you don’t have to carry two suitcases you end up with a free arm, so let’s use it.
That bridge, it's still made of ropes ... I remember cutting this shit, well, another reminder of the situation, calm down dear -glup glup- I'm going -glup glup- hold on!
Man, I'm dying of thirst, seriously, the vines that I took and used to carry the drinks were a curse, it meant that I could carry more drinks, the problem is that I WAS carrying a lot of bottles of wine, and I think I already drink a couple , but do what, when so much time goes by without quality wine you try to kill the nostalgia, ahhhh, look, a bird, how long have I seen one? They don't come close to New Canterlot, something about the air stinks of death and blood, humpff, it seemed normal to me.
Ahhh my head is going to explode, i need another drink, i take another bottle, made in 399, yes, we are reaching the big ones, i pull the cork out with my teeth and enjoy the sweet smell of wine just opened, ahhh perfect, now only if Miranda ... MY GOD MIRANDA !!! What am I doing here, drinking! I start running a little crooked along the trail ... Wait ... Where's the trail? For real? Lost on Everfree? I let out a breath and choose a direction, "well, this has to be it!" I say as I drink the bottle.
"AHHHHHHHHHHH FUCKING YEEE" finally finished, get out of this forest of hell, I can't believe it, well, until I see the sign.
"Welcome to Ponyville !!!" my smile slowly fades, I literally blew this place up, there was no stone left unturned, and here it was, again, intact, god I really need a drink, I pull another one out of my backpack just to notice a terrifying fact! "How is it the last one? I hope it's worth it, hmmmm ... Done in 221, man, this will knock me out, I laugh internally as I open the bottle," fuck it "ahhh the smell, the refined taste, ok I think that's it, i'm officially drunk, i can't walk straight anymore, hmmmm this will end badly.
Wait, there's a cabin there, I'll get some water, maybe there's a cellar there too ... NO! Enough drinking!
Hmm, what? Isn't the door locked? Well, let's go in then, a simple house, almost all made around wood and everything, the most modern thing I see is a stove and a sink ... A SINK! That means running water! I run the best that my state allows and I start drinking, who needs glasses when God gave us hands? I stay in this trance of drinking water for a long time, really, if it weren't for the door opening behind me, I don't know what would have happened, I went up the stairs as fast as I could ... Wait? Why am i hiding? They must be hiding!
"Ohh dear angel, did you turn on the tap? Hmmm? No? Weird, i don't remember opening it."
WAS HER!!! I know that voice anywhere, MY GOD I'M IN HER HUT! SHIT SHIT WHAT DO I DO? If i go down she will see me!
When i was ready to look for a way out i feel my arm bumping into something, come around just to see the perfume bottle fall on the floor ... Shit ...
"Hmmm hi? Is there anyone there?"
Shit, where do I hide? Damn it because I went into the room, I should have gone to the bathroom, ok, let's go with the classics, wardrobe, I stick in it the best I can and leave a crack, was there she was ... Untouched, pure , and ... And ... Wasn't she blind? Where is the blindfold? "Hmmm sir stranger ... I hmmm i wish you wouldn't hide, if that doesn't bother you of course!" she is perfect! Cute, innocent, immaculate and ... And ... My god i need a drink!
She is staring at the bottle, so she looks slightly at the open window "ohh hmm Angel is okay, the window was open!"
Man it was almost, I almost (laughs) almost ... No, you are bigger than that, you use the drink, it does not use you.
When the door has been closed for a while, i do the only healthy thing to do, i jump out the window and walk away from the cabin as fast as possible! Man it brings me so many memories ... Me and Maria ... Man my father in law almost caught me that day! I fucking feel my eyes moisten ... What's going on? Why am I so ... So sentimental! Damn, damn those wines! I pull out my backpack with all my strength and throw it away, just to see a small bottle stuck in it!
When I approach I see the writing on it "from you old friend Blazing Hells as a gift to celebrate the birth of Celestia! Made in 41" i sweat cold, this will bring me down without a doubt! I take the small bottle and put it in the suitcase slowly, yep ... It's not even noon yet.
I look at Canterlot Mountain, sigh man it will take, when i take the first step towards ponyville i feel a horn falling from my coat ... ah ... the Twilight horn ... man... i feel so stupid.
Author's Note
A light and relaxed chapter and yes, he is completely drunk.
Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
Me and my sister run to the cell, I can still hear the scream of Twilight! As I was foolish, why did I allow that? Damn Celestia when you were so inattentive?
There was the door, a solid steel wall, with two guards with spears pointed at it and another talking through the bars!
"Let her go, dragon!"
"Come and get her!"
When we reach the corner the guard walks away from the door and looks at me.
"Excuse me princess, it was all very fast, in one hour the spell was there and in another it was gone!"
"Ok, soldier, step away from the door and open it."
"W-what? Princess she is dange---"
"I know soldier, now open the door!"
Can i see reluctance in his gaze as the door, seriously, do i really look so helpless like? That I've dealt with dragons before, and it won't be a sapphire dragon that will finish me off.
When I enter the room I see, it's her, dressed in black armor and with a sword of extraordinary size, in fact I believe that the sword is a few centimeters smaller than her, and the fact that the sword is against the neck of my faithful student, Twilight it doesn't help at all.
"RELEASE OUR COLLEAGUE, BEAST!"
"Come on, Lulu! Try your luck, let's see what's faster, your magic or my sword!!!"
"Calm Luna, Twlight, is everything okay?"
"P-p-princess! Sorry it was all too fast!"
"Shut up you filthy bitch! Ahah, this will be so good!"
"Good? You are surrounded, dragon! On the bottom of the mountain! Our entire army is coming down here, surrender now and we will not be so severe!"
Damn, how do i solve this? Think Celestia think, how to save Twilight?
"Ok, let's take it easy, look Miranda, how about you lower that sword? Can we negotiate better?"
"Yes Celestia, I also put on the chains, what do you think? Don't fuck with me!"
"BEAST THIS IS YOUR LAST WARNING!"
Damn Luna, why do you always try to work things out like that? She's already carrying a spell and Miranda doesn't take her eyes off her.
"Luna stop!"
"STOP ?! THIS CREATURE THREATENS OUR FRIEND!"
"I KNOW BUT NOW IT'S NOT TIME TO FIGHT! Miranda, what do you want to put that sword down?"
"Hmmm ... Damian!"
"We don't know where this human being of yours is!"
It was then that a guard came through the door, sighing and scared!
"PRINCESSES !!! THE HUMAN ... HE IS INVADING THE CASTLE !!!"
Shit.
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
Man, don't use a teleport spell while ... Slightly drunk ... I barely remembered the original castle design, I mean, if it's the original design, man ... Why am I in the armory? And why is there so many soldiers staring at me? Ah yes... It is because I'AM in the armory ... Ok ... Let's get this over with, I keep the purple horn and drop the suitcase, raise my fists, it's been so long that I haven't beaten a pony with only my fists, I smile.
How strange, I don’t remember their armor being made of gold, really, it may look cool and beautiful, but it’s very fragile, I literally crushed one’s helmet with a punch, they used steel, or something like that, much more resistant and difficult to knead, well, I take a deep breath, the alcohol is still in my blood, ok time to ask some important questions ... I take the last of these ... 'elite guards', the look that a unicorn does when you raise him to twenty inches from the floor by the horn is amazing! "So, sir ..."
"Y-y-your MONSTER !!!"
"Ok, are you going to be the generic soldier, what year is it?"
"What---"
I squeeze his horn, a little more and it will break, stranger ... Why haven't I broken his horn yet? "I will not repeat myself, (press) now answer!"
"I-i-i don't remember!"
"You better remember, you have three seconds ... Three ... Two ... One---"
"1554 !!!"
Well, now the next "where is this shadow?"
"King Shadow? He was killed!"
"Chrysalis?"
"Missing, I think." (press) "ahh, I don't know! It's confidential!"
Hmmm, ok, i know what's going on, but the final question now comes, "what happened to a tower yesterday?"
"What? Do you know how many towers there are in this castle?" the look I gave him was enough "I-I-I think it was Princess Twilight's studies!" she...
"Is she at the castle?"
"Y-y-yes!"
Ok, I think this is all I needed, years looking for a way to escape that hell, and it wasn't me who got me out of it, one punch in the middle of his face was enough to send him against the wall.
"Stopped monster!"
Yep, another battalion of guards are staring at me from the entrance of the armory, "so ... Who wants to tell me where my daughter is?"
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
"Invading the castle is a very strong word, I would say more that he is our guest!" please bite please bite!
"Y-your highness?"
"You can leave, and tell all the guards to stay away from him ok?" please play together! Agree!
"Ok, i-I'm going to warn the others, what about the situation here?"
"It's all under control! Right Miranda?"
She didn't answer, she just looked at me and sometimes she looked at Luna, I know what she was doing, she was reading us, and for her bad luck, I have many years of experience pretending faces!
"Ok ... Do you think i'll fall for this? How old do you think i am?"
"You actually have ----"
"SHUT UP YOU DON'T TALK !!!"
"LOOK HOW YOU SPEAK TO MY FRIEND, DRAGON!" Damn Luna, you are your explosive temper!
"Miranda, why do you think I lie? I spent all day while you were stuck looking for him!"
"I know, and did he come here willingly? In this castle? Where is Twilight Sparkle located?"
It is now Celestia, her next answer will decide everything, whether she will trust you and release Twilight, or ... NO, I will not fail! Twilight depends on me!
"You see----"
"Yes Miranda, he came, not willingly, but he came for you, to help you out of this situation, you know? He is doing his best to help he daughter! Even if it means putting yourself in danger!"
I don't know how, but there was Cadence! How is she here? She should be going to the Empire, by heaven I hope it works!
Miranda is there, staring at us, thinking, her grip on the sword increasing, until I saw it, a small smile on her face, discreet, small, but it was there! The sword slowly moves away from Twilight's neck! "That idiot ... Did he really come willingly? Like, does she know about Twilight?"
"Yes Miranda, and that didn't stop him, nothing stops a father from protecting his daughter!"
I hope you know what Cadence is doing!
"Man ... He is an idiot, you guys ... Are really real right? Like, if i take Twilight's head off, does she really die?
"YES! I AM REAL, PLEASE LET'S THINK CAREFULLY!"
"Ahah, so he did it?"
Got what? Damn, how do i answer that? I look at Luna and her face says everything, 'I don't know.'
"Look, Miranda, we need you to put that sword down, you know, Twilight is not used to having blades around her neck, so if you are kind ... Could you lower the sword?"
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
Damn, that idiot always does shit, Cadence can read the souls or some shit like that right? It might be a trick, but if it's true ... Damn it, ok ... Let's do what we always do, let's dance like the music, and if I see something else strange like another confused guard, things will get pretty ugly .
"Ok..."
Ahh the smile on Celestia face, the sigh on Cadence and Luna deadly look.
"But before I let her go I want to see him! And if he's hurt!"
"Don't worry! He's fine, a little nervous, that's all!" why doesn't her smile seem real? Damian always told me that if Celestia says or shows something, it's the opposite, but I don't see a trace of lies or hesitation, ok, let's dance then.
"CELEEEEEEEEEEEESTIA !!! BRING YOUR ROYAL ASS TO THE THRONE ROOM NOW! AND IT'S GOOD TO BRING THE DRAGON!" I'm almost touched, he and his touch of a young girl, mental note, kicking him.
"I think he is impatient, so? Shall we go?"
"Of course, like I'm going to walk all the way there."
"We can teleport you, if you prefer."
"Yes, of course, do you want me to tell you also which part of the tartaro I prefer?"
"So..."
"I get my way, right, Twilight? Will you be a good girl?"
"Y-y-yes!"
"You guys go ahead, I'm right behind you."
"IF YOU HURT OUR FRIEND!"
"Will you be screaming or will you go Luna?"
With a huff of rage I see her undoing, Cadence goes right away, but Celestia ...
"Aren't you going princess?"
"It's good to keep your word dragon, if you happen to hurt her ..."
"Yes, yes go at once!" and with that she went, ok, room 560, throne room, it’s not a difficult spell. "So ... Let's go to Twilight? And don't try any fun."
"O-ok ..." I lightly release my claw from her horn and hold it by the mane, look at the Crystal Heart and watch it fly until it touches my back.
"Let's go."
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
It is a beautiful throne room, it was almost the same as it was in New Canterlot before my fight with Celestia ... MY THRONE IS BETTER! Cof cof ... Well if you ignore the blood pile and unconscious soldiers around the throne room, it's a beautiful throne room ... MY BLOOD AND UNCONSCIOUS SOLDIERS ARE BETTER THAN THOSE! Cof cof ... Damn, I'm already coughing up blood, better take it easy, save Miranda, then I see what I do ... Maybe the portals haven't been closed in this world! Maybe I can go home!
So i feel, a shiver down my spine, i know what kind of magic this is, my god, HE IS HERE! Ok no taking it easy ... Changes in plans, i have to end this quickly!
I see a blue circle forming near the throne, I run as fast as I can in his direction, and when the night's alicorn materialized I feel my fist meeting her face, confusion and fear invade her! I have to be quick, then with two more punches and she is on the floor, I throw myself on top of her, I feel her wings struggling in an attempt to hurt me or move away from her, useless, when she regains her senses I am already with mine arm firmly attached to her neck.
There, a few centimeters away I see another circle, a rose, damn it ... I take a blue horn from my coat with my only free hand and point to the materialized alicorn of love, "don't move!"
"Arghh! Damn! When I get free!"
The look on Cadence's face says she didn't expect it, ahhh, this will be like the Crystal Empire again.
"Damian right? I need you to calm down and put that ... Horn down."
"Yes of course I will, now come slowly to here."
She takes two steps and my direction when I see another magic circle, a white one, yes now they brought the cavalry ... (laughs) this will be good, I can already feel it, the adrenaline! My heart racing! Three alicorn! I can't contain the smile!
And there she was, Celestia, the alicorn of the day, it is not surprising that she was as surprised as Cadence, but when she pointed her horn at me I noticed the stalemate.
"UNLOCK MY SISTER!"
"Calm down Celes--"
"Force me!"
"Sister (presses) arghh, shoot! Ignore me!"
So I see ... A purple circle ... It's SHE ... She is coming ... Damn, I was so close! Should I break Luna's neck and shoot Cadence?
Pop
There she was ... That beast with pony skin and she ... She ... Had a sword around her neck? Wait ... "MIRANDA!"
"DAMIAN!"
I can almost feel a tear forming! And is she almost killing her first Twilight? I'm so proud!
"Damian, please put that horn down, let go of Luna and let's talk!"
"Of course, then you can get the handcuffs and the bone saw!"
"SOMEPONY HELP ME!!!"
Ahhhhh Twilight! If i wasn't concentrating with Celestia pointing her horn at me, i could shake, her voice ... It's the same fucking VOICE !!!
"Twilight silence! Look at Damian, please, we can help you! You just have to lower the horn ..."
"Damian, what do we do?"
Think Damian, you have come out of worse situations, ok, slowly lower the horn, I can see an incredulous look on the faces of Miranda and Celestia, one of total joy in Twilight and relief in Cadence, when the horn touches the floor, I move quickly my hand for the coat and pull an orange horn, time to shine!
Miranda knows what that means, and she quickly closes her eyes and then a clear covers the room!
When i open my eyes i can see all of them, all with eye pains and struggling! I release Luna, and run towards Celestia! I pull a knife from my coat, the last knife! Why am i having a deja vu feeling? I smile, I'm almost there! I can already feel the blood!
Pof
What? Where is Celestia? And why am I wearing a licorice handcuff?
"Well, I think that solves everything."
"DISCORD !!!"
No ... Not now, not him! I was so close! Miranda was there beside me, without armor or her sword, just with the same handcuff as me ... The look she gives me ...
"No..."
I nod, sorry Miranda, I won't let them catch you, I feel the mana, not a small fraction, all, all the mana I have, the anger, not now, I'm bigger than that, I control it! It's not she who controls me! I can already feel my veins burning, with a little force and the handcuffs are gone, and the look Discord sent me was all I needed.
"Interesting ... Where do you find these things Celestia?"
"Discord! Watch out!"
A punch, it was all it took to send the chaos god out the windows! Now the princesses!
No no no no! He can't be doing this! Damn Damian, stop! "Stop Damian! You are going to get hurt!"
No matter what I say, he won't hear me, and these damn handcuffs won't even move, how can something made of candy be so tough? I even throw flames at them, and all they did was toast!
Damian, he's changing, he shouldn't use that much mana! His body will break! I can already see, red streaks rising in him arms, down him legs, and the amount of mana making it through your mouth! I have to get out of here! I have to help him now!
I may not be the oldest of the princesses, nor the youngest, but I know what a mana burn is, and that human has several around his body, and they are growing! How this is possible? Normally a body that has more mana than normal naturally releases it through the environment! It wasn't for your veins to be ... Heaven! Poor thing! It must hurt, it must hurt too much, scholars believe that a fourth degree mana burn equals the childbirth pain! I am sure that it is past fourth degree!
"Wow, really, you have a good left hook you know?"
Discord, that lunatic chimera! I hope you know what you're doing!
"You ... Get ... Out ...here... NOW !!!"
"Wow, is anyone berserk? If you start shouting Griffith I will have to censor you for copyrights!"
It's amazing how fast Damian got! He almost seems to be teleporting ... Wait, he is teleporting! He doesn't walk! He just teleports behind Discord!
"Cof cof, get him Discord!" Seriously, Aunt Luna has to stop encouraging fights.
"Cadence, Twilight! We have to help Discord! Now!"
"Help him? He looks fine." I can't deny that, Discord is basically disappearing and cutting Damian's hair! I mean, he was cutting his hair until a lightning bolt hit him and he flew out the window again!
"Ok ... Come on" I don't like violence, but I can't let him hurt my friends!
He's tough! I don't know how many missiles we throw at him, but they are reflected as if they were nothing!
"STOP DAMIAN! YOU WILL KILL YOURSELF!"
"Destroy ... Monsters ... Daughter ..."
His eyes, nothing but pure hate, but i see something there!
He was about to get Twilight when Discord came up with a baseball bat and hit Damian in the head!
"Ahah! Home run!"
Really, i think it would have been a ... Ahmm ... Home run? If the baseball bat hadn't broken!
"Mistake ..." I saw many magical explosions, the ones he launched at Discord were now on another level! Tore off the entire ceiling of the throne room! What is he?!
And there was Discord again, on the 'ceiling', lying on a bed and eating popcorn !!!
"Seriously, you are very strong ... Too strong for a mortal ... Damian right?"
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
What he is doing? It seems to be pulling something, something big ... Discord's eyes widen, and widen, until they burst! So far nothing out of the ordinary, but it was Celestia's look that made me shiver! Then I heard, a small hum, very small, until it grew to an unbearable height!
Then I saw it! Coming out of the sun are a beam of light and pure power! How is he using the power of the sun! This is simply impossible! And then he missed, well, everyone in the castle! If it weren't for that multicolored barrier that appeared around the castle...
"Discord! Stop kidding and stop him!"
"As if it were easy Celestia, did you know that he is immune to magic? I can't make his bones turn into gum!"
"DISCOOOORD !!!"
BOOOOOOOOOOM
What happened? My head is spinning ... I open my eyes, there he was, mana flowing from his mouth, his arms completely red from the burn! The look he was giving to celestia ... He was stepping on it!
"You ... Destroyed ... Life!"
"I don't know what you're talking about!"
"DON'T FATHER, STOP!"
He ... Stopped, he really stopped, his eyes went back to having something besides hate! Your arms slowly returning to normal ... NORMAL!
"Discord!"
"OK!"
And with a snap it was done, that monster lost consciousness and fell to the floor, it was done.
it's over!

Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
Memories of the past: It just ends, when it ends
That's it ... It's over, i took all of them ... All those elements ... Even Fluttershy ... * sigh * i look around, the castle of the sisters, he was my home, my hideout, my base of operations, now ... It will be my grave ... I am walking to Luna's tower, or what is left of it ... Luna ... No, it is impossible.
Almost there, there is little left, these damn stairs never end, seriously, I should teleport, but I don’t know, I don’t think it would be right, you know, I have to climb these stairs, every step I give, it’s almost as if they were here, Pinkie laughing in the halls, Rainbow and Applejack looking for me and screaming, Rarity running and screaming, Fluttershy ... Keeps singing, and Twilight has her delusions, keeps thinking, scheming ... Testing ...
Ok ... I'm here, the tallest tower of this castle, down there, a small hole reveals the throne room, ahah ... What a beautiful place to finish ... Sorry Maria ... Sorry Luiza ... Father, mom ... Hehe Rafael, how I wish I was at your wedding, maybe I'm already an uncle, how many months was Ana? Two or three? Yeah ... Hehe I'm already an uncle! Hehe ...
I take a pill, one left, good my dear, you come with me, seriously, of all the things Twilight did with me, and well, it paid off, I never thought I would use one of them, I mean, five of them, and I couldn't use all of them !
It's a beautiful view, forests everywhere, in the distance the mountain with a castle beside it ... A beautiful view ... I close my eyes and I throw myself from the tower I can feel the wind passing over my face, it will end ... The sounds, the noises, the nightmares, ahh ... Just the idea puts a smile on my face.
* POF *
What? How i'm alive! I'm on top of a fart pad! HOW! There was nothing here! * pof * I see the note rising and flying awkwardly up to my hand, and it was written in a pitiful literature, hehe, it's him.
"Damian bad, very bad! You know Damian ... What you did, tried, this is wrong man, did you say no? Cowards look for the quickest way? I look for the hardest! Champion, you can't die yet, you know, you have a daughter waiting for you at home, and i know that you will find a way to find a way to go home, after all, you are Damian Spencer, the greatest bowler of all time not? Ass: big D."
* laughs * he always managed to put a smile on my face, even now, after what i tried to do, he saved me, why? After what I did ... I take a deep breath, ignoring the sound this cushion was making, what the fuck was I thinking? Hehe, I still have more goals, is it impossible? Yes, but they are still my goals! I leave the cushion and walk towards my throne, or the two stones that make it up, and there it was, several cutie marks drawn on it, some with an X on them, but some not, there, right there was a sun, a moon and a blue heart ...
Author's Note
I don't know about this chapter, it's a delicate topic, but I wanted a situation like this in the history, so there it is.
Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
Author's Note
I wanted this chapter to be bigger, but I think that increasing it can compromise the story, so ... enjoy!
Why did I do that?
What happened? My head hurts, I don't remember anything besides ... * FATHER * Miranda ... THE PRINCESSES!
I open my eyes, just to see nothing! Just darkness, what did they do? I try to move my hands to my eyes,but I feel that they are blocked by something, maybe handcuffs? I feel something hard around my neck, and there is something keeping my arms close to my body, for some reason I don't feel anything from the waist down ... I ... I lost, damn it ... I can even see it, go start all over again, my god, i hope not, i try to send mana into my arms, until i feel an electric shock shoot from my neck, god how it hurt, are they seeing me? They will not make me scream anymore, I've screamed enough in this life for ponies, not anymore. "Hi, is there anyone there?"
Nothing, silence, this is something uncomfortable, not seeing anything, not hearing anything, so ... Lonely ... So ... God I hope she is fine, please god ... If you exist, sorry for all that I say to you, help her, please.
"H-hello?" hmmm, woman, not too old, and of course, scared, how I wanted to see her, at least know where the voice came from, I don't even know if it's left or right, her voice just comes up in my head, if I foe hunch i would say she is right behind my head!
"D-did you call?"
"Who's there?"
"C-chief nurse of C-Canterlot ... G-Golden Syringe" small fish, that name doesn't seem strange to me ... Where I've heard it ...
"Are you a unicorn?"
"How do you know !? The blindfold failed !?" blindfold? I don't feel it, magic ... It's always magic ... God.
"Of course dear, you know, it’s complicated to move my neck, it hurts, and it’s boring to look at the ceiling, so you know, can you put a new one on it or move my neck a little?" it will hurt, but no magic seal can contain my magic, I just need to release a lot of mana and bring her down, I just have to know where she is ...
"My Celestia! What do I do! A-and-I'll be right back!" I can hear a door slamming, wood, why wood? Normally prisons have iron doors, I try to move a couple of times but they were all useless attempts, everything is stuck, and I don’t feel anymore… my god I don’t feel my mana anymore! HOW!? I thought it was impossible to hide all that! At least hide from me!
Discord ... This is his work, it has to be, as I hate chaos magic, so ... Chaotic, unpredictable and difficult to manipulate into something more complex than a levitation spell, simply useless for me, and for my bad luck , I'm mostly that, damn it.
"Hello, Damian?" Celestia, why am I not surprised by this? It could be worse, it could be Twiligh ----
"Hello, I'm Twiligh-"
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH GET HER OUT OF HERE!" I have to escape! NOW! I'm struggling desperately, I can hear some chains clinking, my God, I have to get out of here!
"C-calm Damian, we will not hurt you!" I've heard it before, and as she was wrong, it hurt a lot, it always hurts, God I don't want to feel it again, I can't take it, not again.
"G-GET OUT OF HERE! GET HER OUT OF HERE!"
"Twilight, can you wait outside?"
"But princes-"
"Please, until I finish here."
I didn't hear the door opening, but I heard it close, and it seems that she slammed the door, "d-did she leave ?!"
"Yes Damian, she left."
"I swear to god, if she's in a corner of the room I--"
"No, she left, trust me." trust me, that phrase, spoken by her, i feel an immeasurable urge to vomit, but not now, i breathe as deeply as i can, my god she was here, in the same room as me, and i am totally trapped and surrendered, god , it looks like a nightmare.
"Where's Miranda?"
"The Dragon?"
"My daughter."
"Ohh, I see, she is fine, trapped like you, but well, you have my word!" my word, she's trying hard to piss me off.
"Your word is worthless to me, princess, if I find out that you hurt my daughter ..."
"She's fine, * sigh * looks at Damian, I don't know what happened, so I would like ----"
"Look princess, stop playing the good samaritan, i know that- for god's sake take this blindfold off! I want to see something beyond darkness!"
"For our safety and yours, no."
* sigh * "how is Luna doing?"
"You almost broke her snout."
"Ok ... Why am I alive? Or rather, why am I not on Tartaro itself or being tortured?"
"What? I never did ---"
"Bare to play the good Samaritan please."
She sighs, it was a very loud sigh, I think it is now, "look Damian, ok, you almost hurt my niece, put a sword in my friend's neck, hospitalized several of my guards, attacked my sister and almost killed me, no, I don't like you , and for me you would be in the eighth circle of the Tartaro or maybe even deeper! But due to Cadence and Twilight, you have the advantage of the doubt, so, it is good not to ruin everything and make it worthwhile. "
I like that, when someone speaks with the calm she was using, it is difficult to speak when she lies, now this outburst, this is real, this is a few hours or days of stress, everything is released now, all true, good.
Wait ... Twilight, why did she do that? And Cadence, my god how I wish I could see! It's horrible to talk to someone without being able to see! * sighs * keep calm Damian, keep playing her game just a little while longer, "and now? No torture or Tartaro? What do you want."
"I? I want you to go to Tartaro." how sweet, she is really upset, "but my fellow princesses disagreed with me, so why did you attack us?"
"Look princess, or you take this blindfold off, or let's play the game of silence."
I can hear her thinking, my Celestia had this custom too, thinking out loud, not loud enough, but audible.
"Damian ... Don't waste that chance, and it's just blindfolding that I'm going to remove, and that's not negotiable."
"Done!"
It seems that I just woke up from a long sleep, that unique sensation that happens in the eyes, the embarrassed view, who would believe that I would be relieved to be able to see this.
"My princess, my sincere thanks, but you know, the handcuffs are hurting, if you were so kind."
"Please Damian, don't mistake me for a foolish guard, they are tight for a reason."
She's right, point for her, ahh my vision is back to normal, and i'm in ... A hospital? The room is all white, has some tables and a door in the left corner of the room, I was obviously at the right end of the room, and in front of the door was the princess, the alicorn of the sun and everything.
"It doesn't look like a cell to me."
"Of course not, you are at the royal hospital in Canterlot."
"What, like, the hospital inside the castle?"
"Yes?"
"Why am I not in a cell? Can I know?"
"Cadence asked for it, then Luna assured you that you would be well locked up."
I will not deny it, this giant chain on my torso looks very resistant, but the masterpiece is this collar on my neck, a magical inhibitor, I think it’s green, it’s hard to see, but it’s a very powerful one, to keep me from feeling my mana can only be done by Discord.
"So?"
"So what?" these princesses are so confuse!
Even with the difficulty of moving my head, I manage to see, I think her mask is falling apart, she no longer has that irritating maternal smile, just the serious and boring look.
"I think you better not play the ... Samaritan? Answer, why did you attack us!"
Sigh, at least the best that these chains allow "I thought they were hurting Miranda."
"Why would we do that?"
"I don't know, maybe it's my intuition or something ..."
"Intuition? Because of your intuition you almost killed me!"
"Problem? Everyone dies Celestia."
"Not me! Or my sister! We are immortal!"
"Yes, you live longer, so you are more likely to die from injury or illness." my Celestia was like that too, I think it's an immortal or god complex, well, her problem, I'm human and I'm almost forty, and my days are ending.
Her face says she didn't like me, well, "Damian, you haven't answered yet, why you attacked us, and intuition is not a valid answer."
"I don't know."
"Twilight, get in here."
"Hi?"
"NOOO!!!"
"Stay another couple of minutes there Twilight, so, let's talk or is this difficult?"
Bitch, damn sow and all the other hisses that exist for her, she learns fast.
"So, afraid of Twilight hmm?" I don't answer, it's not like it's necessary, I think my ... Screams ... Made that very clear.
"What did she do? Filled her head with questions? Interrogation of countless hours?" I trembled, yes, certainly, not the way she thinks, but yes.
"Any other topic besides ... Twilight?"
"Yes," she clarifies her voice with light coughs, "WHY YOU ATTACKED US !!!"
Ai... My ears hurt a little, real canterlot voice if i'm not mistaken, i hate that. "Why did I attack you guys?"
"Yes, why attack? Why not talk? You knew you weren't in your world, so why did you attack us and I want the truth!" she tried to give me a threatening look, poor thing, if she was Luna, or well, Twilight maybe that would work, now Celestia? No, she doesn't scare me, "I don't know."
"Don't you know? You almost killed four princesses and hospitalized my elite guards and you don't know why ?!"
"Was that your elite guard? Fuck, you guys are fucked up, if ---"
"Don't run away from the question!!!"
"I don't know, why did I come punching your royal guards? I don't know why, I always did that, I always killed your ponies, if you want a short answer, it was because I like it and why Miranda could be in trouble, but it seems that she was fine, almost killed Twilight, besides, I think I was slightly drunk. "
She is furious, her mane no longer flowed more calmly, she was erratic and, well, not smooth "I knew that I had to send you to Tartaro, you are a monster, I bet you killed your universe for pleasure."
"My universe? Ahahah my god, are you a comedian? Seriously ... * sigh * do you want to hear what? Yes Celestia, I killed the other universe not because I needed it, not for revenge, but for pleasure, because I could and nobody managed to stop me, are you happy? "
She said nothing, just stared at me, opened her mouth to say something but stopped and left the room without saying a word, well now I --- what?! Fuck! I can't see !!!
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
I hope everything goes well, the last thing I want is for the situation to end badly, the situation almost ended in tragedy, if Discord had not appeared ... Maybe he ... NO! Calm Cadence, no matter what could have happened, it didn't, so we ignored and focused on the future, and the future is Princess Celestia entering the room furious! By heaven I think the interrogation didn't end well!
"Celestia? How are you?"
"You missed Cadence, he is a monster, he kills for pleasure and shows no respect for us!"
"What he said?"
"He almost killed us not because he had to kill us, but because no one could stop him!"
Wow ... I, there doesn't have to be something wrong, this story doesn't make sense.
"And how was Miranda's interrogation?"
"Not very good, she was a little errattic and won't speak until she sees her father ..."
"Dad? He said he was human."
"It's a fraternal relationship, I can see the bond that they share, but it's really unusual, as far as I know dragons can't generate hybrids, and well, it's not like she was going to tell us ... What about Celestia what do we do? "
"Thrown both at Tartaro, tenth level and end of discussion."
"Celestia we can't do this, he's basically a bomb, did you see the amount of mana he has? Heaven, he could pull the moon and throw it at Equis like it's nothing!"
"Eleventh level?"
"Celestia! For Faust, I look like the mature mare here now!"
"I'm sorry Cadence, it's just ... I don't know, something about him really irritates me, I can't explain."
Luna is in the hospital, Celestia is in trouble with judgment and Twilight ... "Where's Twilight?"
"Miranda ... Do you have tea? My head hurts"
I look at one of the maids near the door and she nods slightly and leaves the room, it will be good, I also need some tea.
"I look at the suitcases, two, one with several horns * shiver * feathers and mane, another had several of these items, but what caught my attention the most, and what drew that of all the princesses was the Crystal Heart and the elements, he had them all, they were there, broken, darkened and with some scratches, we agreed to call the other carriers of the elements while I analyzed the Heart, without an ounce of my love for Shining, it is obvious what happened... But other than that it’s basically the Crystal Heart a little grayer.
Celestia seems to have looked at the elements "still thinking about the elements?"
"No ... I mean yes, but mostly the Crystal Heart."
"See? He killed you, you saw the horn in his collection, and the horn of Shining Armor was also there ... And ... The horn of ---"
"YES, I understand, I should hate them, they killed my baby, but my horn, the last spell I cast was a love spell, and my daughter didn't cast any ... What happened ..."
"What do you think cadence? He killed you and your daughter ..."
"Celestia, I am a specialist in spells: explosives, illusions and traps, my daughter was in danger, I would not cast a spell as slow as a love spell on him, something happened ..."
"I don't know, maybe you were nervous, I mean, it's a desperate situation."
"Yes," why? A love spell ... Why ... Think Cadence ... What the other you wanted to do with it ...
"Incidentally, Miranda answered the question of what year was it? A guard told me that he wanted to know the year of our world, maybe this is important."
"Actually she answered that, I mean she said it in the middle of a joke but it is the closest we have."
"Hmmm?"
"1571."
"Seventeen years ... It's time."
"Yes ..." my head is starting to hurt, where's the maid with the tea?
"I returned!"
"Twi? What is it, did you get something out of it?"
"Not much ... It seems that she doesn't like me and wants to see her father, is it possible? A human with a dragon?"
"He doesn't look like the romantic type, but he has love in his heart, maybe? Must have a form with alchemy and magic, but he still has the problem, well, anatomical?"
Twi blushed slightly and chuckled "maybe, I know a spell or two that could help with that, but it doesn't matter, what do we do with them?"
"I don't know Twi, Celestia wants to send him to Tartaro, Luna will probably want his head when she leaves the hospital and ... Where's Discord?"
"Left, said he had to do something in Grifonia and that he would be back in a day or two."
"So ... Do we join them?"
"WHAT? Are you crazy Twilight? They are very dangerous alone! Imagine if we join them!"
"Are you okay princess? Do you look... Scared?"
"Is that ... I don't know, he gives me the creeps, I don't like him or the idea of letting him go, he already admitted to being a mentally shaken homicide who kills for ... Pleasure."
"Who said let him go?"
"Look my faithful friend Twilight, I know you, show friendship, trust, do what he wants, help him, make friends with him, I do not judge you, because you are well ... The princess of friendship, but, he is one special case. "
"He is someone confused, scared, as you said mentally shaken, lost and without a north, I want to be that north, help him, and well, maybe learn a thing or two."
"I knew there was something like that!"
"She put a sword around my neck! I was never so scared! I thought I was going to die, nothing more fair than learning something from them, I mean, he is a completely new species, right? I could name it! Hmmm which one would be the best name..."
Ahhh Twilight, it's cute to see her when she has these daydreams, "I believe they already have."
"Even a scientific name? I hope not!"
The door opens revealing two maids with our tea, how I need it.
Ahhhhhhh nothing like a good tea, this custom I learned from Celestia, I think growing up with her taking it every day makes you like tea, well, only advantages.
"Nothing better than a tea to calm your heart, right Celestia?"
"I agree, but not even the best tea has changed my opinion of him Cadence, he is not confused, he already gone mad, he has been mentally shaken? Sorry, he is insanely shaken mentally, lost? He never had a way to go, and for north? If you're looking north with a compass that points south and you don't know, you have a problem, then Cadence, Twilight, that's what I think of our ... Guest. "
"Wow."
"And Twilight..."
"Yes?"
"You are forbidden to do your extradimensional experiments indefinitely."
Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
A dragon and a ... thuman?
* sigh * I hope everything is fine, the princesses asked us to go to Canterlot at the last minute, Rainbow went flying, hehe, she always hated the trains and their 'unnecessary' stops, but there is still time to arrive, maybe she is already there, I hope my animals are well, Angel was furious and I only managed to get out of my hut when I promised to bring him some Canterlot carrots.
"Fluttershy dear, do you know why we were called?"
"I don't know, maybe it's because, hmmm, that creature that Twilight called two days ago?"
"That hairless minotaur? I hope he hasn't done anything, otherwise he will see!"
"Calm Applejack! I bet it's going to be a party! I've had this feeling for a while! It's going to be a bad thing ... Maybe it's a mega-surprise party! Someone's going to fall, so watch out!"
"Sense pink?"
Pinkie always finds a way to make us happy, even with this state of emergency that Equestria is having because of the Griffin Federation and well, the Twilight experiment, I hope everything is fine.
"Well, I hope it's important, I was finishing up a new fashion collection and I had to stop it! And Swetie Belle is alone with the baba, I hope she doesn't wear my dresses again!"
The trip continued calm for a while, without much to say, besides of course Pinkie who was jumping from car to car eating everything he could and disturbing the unicorns that Rarity said was, high class, something normal to see in this train since we're going to the capital ... I don't know why, but I think it has to do with that being ... Twilight said the species name in a letter, was it uhmann? Ruan? Thuman? Yes I think it was that, I wish I wasn't dying of sleep at the time, I hope she apologizes for not paying much attention ... He gives me the chills ... And ... Pity, I don't know why, but I felt it when I looked at him, although ...
"Hmm girls? What if it's about that dragon?"
"The blue?"
"Obviously Applejack, which one would be? Spike? Good, Fluttershy is right, it could be about her and ... The horns, for Celestia I hope not."
"What's the big deal with that? I mean, I know how horrible the idea of pulling somepony's horn out, but the princesses were a little whiter in the hour, even Celestia!"
"Well, I don't expect a earth pony to understand, but this is an insanely horrible act, it would be like pulling off the pegasus' wings or the hooves of a earth pony, not to mention the pain it causes, but the strangest thing is that it doesn't if I had reports of this practice ... 500 years ago? I don't remember much of it, history was not my thing in the school. "
Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
Memories of the past: The arrival!
Author's Note
One of the key chapters in history, I don't know why it took me so long to finish it, but there it is.
Memories of the past: The arrival!
I look in the mirror and see myself, a black suit with a red tie, formal pants bought by my dear wife, Maria... What a woman... A redhair with a strong attitude that won me over with just her eyes, those blue eyes like water, how she managed to dance like that, I’ve never seen anyone dance like that, god.
"Honey, are you ready yet?"
"In a minute dear!" damn collar! I never managed to get it right, I always get mixed up! The door opens revealing my little angel!
"Dad! Mama said if you take too long you will sleep on the sofa!"
"Of course dear, AS IF YOUR MOTHER WAS TELLING ME TO SLEEP IN THE SOFA ON MY BROTHER'S WEDDING DAY!"
"SAY YOU DOUBT IT!"
"No honey, I love you, I'm coming! Mia, can you go there with mommy? Give daddy more time ok?"
"OK daddy!"
And there she goes, in an embroidered dress with reddish and bluish details that cost a month's wages, but it was worth every penny, my little Mia looks like a little princess, and today when she throws the flowers at the wedding, she will be the princess she wanted to be, hehe, I can't believe it, my brother is getting married, the incorrigible bachelor, the king of the womens has been tied, I want to meet Ana in person, well he said she was incredible and everything, I think it will be an interesting party, his parties are always , and most importantly... I put my hand in my pocket and take my card, it was two hundred reais, my father won a bet, yeah, my brother is getting married, damn even when it has nothing to do with me he ends up with me screwing, well, I take the bible over the sink, I put a little gel on my hair, I put my hand on my chin, I had to shave, he'll see, it better be the best wedding party ever! I turn around and when my hand touches the doorknob I feel everything tremble and then a flash catches me.
Everything is spinning, I can see only a white world, nothing but white, but it is spinning, I feel it! And the worst, I feel my body getting heavy! Tiredness invades my body, the simple fact of holding the Bible seems like an extraordinary effort! But I can't let go, because the effort I'm making is the only thing that keeps me awake! Don't pass out, please Damian don't pass out on Rafael's wedding day! He will kill me! Calm, strength and breathe!
So, as fast as that flash came, it was gone, god, all i saw was a mixture of colors swirling, i could have vomited if the suit wasn’t rented, and maria would end up with me, god, my knees fail in question seconds, and my stomach keeps turning, not to mention hellish heat! When did the world decide to go up ten degrees?
Am I in this mental effort not to vomit or pass out for a few minutes? Or are it seconds? I don't know, but it was horrible! And it wasn’t the worst, the horses were the worst! I had fucking colorful horses around me! There were some that were a mix of pegasus and unicorns, PEGASUS AND UNICORNS ?! "MIA! What was in Dad's special tea ?!" they didn't like it, they started talking... It didn't seem... The sound of a horse, my god it sounded like russian, jesus why are there horses speaking russian ?! I try to get up but a spear appeared a few centimeters from my face, these horses had spears! I raise my hands in a sign of surrender, my god, colorful horses, it looks like college again!
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
Some time passed, two hours ago they took me to this medieval cell, colorful horses, my god, I'm not hallucinating, that spear was very real... Damn it, Maria will kill me, if that clock on the wall is right, now the wedding is starting, shit, I... God what's going on !?
At least I have my bible, I was never a very religious guy, but Maria was, so I learned a thing or two, I even found myself praying a few times, please god, help me here.
"Hi? Do you understand me?"
The last time i got scared like that was when Maria found me at Rafael’s bachelor party, which was not long ago, but it was still scary! The fucking horse talked! Very bad, it seemed strange but holy shit! A purple horse that speaks! Look at her, she doesn't even have one of the wings! My God! I'm fucked!
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
Two days ago... Two days ago I arrived in this... World, it seems that a spell went wrong and I was teleported here, yes, spell, magic, MAGIC! Holy shit this world is crazy, they control the weather, day and night! How? The answer is always the same, MAGIC! Seriously, this could even be interesting, if it weren't for the fact that I was two days late for my brother's wedding... There must already be policemen behind me, it will be a mess when I get back, what do I say? Hi! I was kidnapped by extra-dimensional horses, yes, the story is very good, it will give me a divorce and a passage to the asylum! *sigh* according to Celestia, who is a kind of goddess here, she will see a way to send me back, but it can take twenty to thirty days for the spell to be ready, well, Maria always tell me to see the good side of things, hmmm... Cultural exchange? Let's do this, because well, the two days I spent answering questions from Twilight Sparkle, which by the way is another deity, the friendship deity, yeah, friendship, I don't judge them since they moved the fucking sun in front of me, that's terrifying, it has to be a trick, and as a man of science I’ll find out!
It was not a bad time, when I am not being, well interrogated, I spend time reading, their language is difficult, expensive, very difficult, but it is not worse than Portuguese or Russian * trembles * god as I hate languages, I prefer math or physics , but that's it, with the help of Twilight and some children's books that attacked my dignity I am already able to speak a little about Equestrian, very badly, but it is enough to talk, he he, the first sentence I learned was the classic , "I do not speak Equestrian!" ahhh, high school, how is the class?
"Damian focus please!"
"Hmm... OK?"
"Serio? Aquela frase era muito simples!"
"Olha, você já aprendeu a falar português em dois malditos dias! Levei uma década e ainda tenho problemas! Por que não falamos assim?
"Não! Voce tem que aprender Equestre, agora preste atenção! Me, you, he or she is the basics!"
"Ahhhhhh I hate this language!"
"See? You are already learning!"
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
It's been ten days since I arrived, after I forced myself to learn that language since I was, well, unable to communicate in the simplest way since they have some problems with hand gestures, so, do what, it was learn or isolate me, but seriously, the best part of learning equestrian was the books, after Twilight confiscated my bible for... Studies, I started reading their books, it is strange to read books in a language that you learned recently, but it was very interesting, they have a serious problem with friendship, most of the dangers they faced were with ahmm... Friendship magic? Something like that, I laughed a lot when it appeared in a serious history book.
A completely new world, new stories, but even so there was also a Leonidas, seriously, the three hundred is a classic that crosses dimensions, I laughed a lot I will not deny, * sigh * I want to go home...
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
Twenty days, several things happened, they tried to convert me to this cult of friendship or something, I mean it's beautiful and everything, but I don't know, it's not my thing, very monotone, for some reason their serious problems could be solved with one or two sentences, it’s... Boring, I prefer to stay with Jesus, Jesus is cool, Jesus is the first hipster and I respect him for that! But I don't think it's time to be kidding, man, what am I going to do? How am I going to explain that I'm gone for twenty days? Seriously, every day that passes it bothers me even more, shit, damn it! Fuck! What anger from hell!
"How are you, Damian?"
"Princess? What happened? What brings you to my room at this hour? You know I'm married, right?" she lets out a light laugh at my jokes, at least it helps me keep my head off the question of getting home...
"Stop fooling Damian, it will make me blush, but I came here to make a question, how is your world? I read some things written by Twilight and everything seemed... Dark, you are a very happy and active person to have come from that world."
"Do what, my mother always told me that I was hyperactive or something, and the joy... I think it's more anxiety than joy, you know,... Ahmm your world is really cool goddess of the sun."
"Thank you, it took me over a thousand years to make Equestria what it is today..."
"The Griffin Federation is getting you Sleepless right?"
"Yes... The situation is getting ugly, but that's not your problem Damian, you just have to go to your world, let me take care of my world, ok?"
"Of course goddess, your problems, not mine, but you know, do you know what steel is?"
"Steel? Is a legendary metal alloy if I'm not mistaken, its formula has long been lost."
Something tells me that it is the insane use of magic in metarlugia that did this, "do you want ---"
"No Damian, this is a knowledge of your world, not ours, we had the chance and wasted it, now it is better that the steel remains lost through time..."
Well, she said that, not me, man, imagine if I tell them about gunpowder? It would be funny, and... Very deadly... Wait... They have cannons here... What the fuck?
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
Two days to go! It's only two days! I already have a plan, I'm going to simulate a kidnapping, somehow, someone broke into my house without anyone seeing and kidnapped me, it will work... Seriously my head doesn't work anymore since Twilight made me write the story of HUMANITY!
Seriously, it sucked, there was a lot, like, I like history and everything but there's no way for a person to know the whole story, but well, they wanted to use that name on the cover so it's their problem... They got weird. .. Luna started talking to me more, and Celestia changed, she doesn't even look in my eyes anymore, what will it be? Twilight has disappeared since the book ended, according to a guard she went to Ponyville... Don't laugh, that's the name of the village, believe me I checked a map, Ponyville, god look at this... * sigh * I look at the moon, calm Maria, Mia, am I going, ok? Now all that’s missing is the suit they sent to a real dressmaker or something, and with that I’m out of here... I take my Wallet and see the picture of my darlings, it’s a little burned, damn Damian, almost ruined their photo , idiot, but it's still good... Calm Mia, daddy is going home...
Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
Something is wrong here ... I still can't get it out of my head, a love spell ... Why? What situation was I in? There's no point in thinking about it too much, it's not looking at my horn, I mean, the horn of the other me, that I will find out what happened, I may have to go talk to Damian, Ceslestia is in trouble with his judgment, maybe if I talk with Aunt Luna before ---
"Sister, I hope everything went well at the interrogation."
And here she comes, damn it, I wanted to talk to her alone, it will be a problem if Celestia does her head, if it’s not already done.
"Luna! Thankfully, we want your opinion, it's about our guests, but first, how's the hurt going?"
"Well, according to the doctor, in a couple of days I will get better, but what do you want to decide?"
It is now, Luna is known for giving much more importance to the first proposal than the others, if Celestia speaks first, the discussion is over.
"See, I believe that ---"
"Luna, before listening to your sister, listen to my proposal! I don't want to let him, go yet, let's let them meet again, just to make themselves comfortable, we can learn what happened to him and help him," I know it's not working, Luna it was always more about action than remediation, "maybe you can even get a rematch!" yes, her eyes shone with the mention of a rematch! "Like that, we would have his help, think about it Luna, Equestria is going to a war with the Federation, we will not lie or try to hide it, it will happen! Now, we add another great wizard for our country, I don't know, maybe the human? "
"This is crazy Cadence, when we release him, he will try to run away!"
"No Celestia, as long as we have Miranda he is not going anywhere!" please work, come on Luna, have everything you like, fight, strengthen the army, bite!
"Really, we like a rematch with him, we were caught off guard in that fateful hour, in a fair fight it wouldn't be repeated!"
"You too Luna? Am I the only one not crazy in this room? Is he a compulsive murderer who killed us just because he could, do you really want to loosen our security, or for Faust, release him?"
Celestia has always been good with arguments, every day dealing with nobles leads to this, I never managed to beat her in a debate, but this is not a debate, this is about convincing Luna, I don't need to be right or have the most logical choice, just I need to have the proposal that most pleases Luna, how to proceed ...
* Bam * the door opens violently to reveal a solar guard that breathed heavily "PRINCESS! Captain Oak Shield is requesting your presence immediately!"
"What happened soldier?"
"Ahh thanks to the skies you are all here, see, one of the magical inhibitors of the dragon has come undone! He needs it to be redone immediately!"
"Impossible ... How ... I'm going to have a word with her, nobody undoes two of my best spells and get out unscathed ... Tell me I'm going to go ---"
"No sister, you are going to rest, I have to have a word with Miranda, I already take advantage and make another inhibitor."
"Are you okay, sister? If I didn't know, I would say that you were exchanged for one changeling, but ok, I will allow it because my muzzle is starting to hurt and for the results that your ... Inhibitor will have, let me know when it's over."
"Aunt, you didn't answer, what do you think of my plan?"
"Sublime my dear Cadence, we will have one more card against the Federation and I will be able to defeat this Damian in a fair fight!"
"Cadence, can you do me a favor?"
"Say Twilight?"
"You can come with me to talk to Damian, I will put on a disguise since he seems to have a certain ... Problem with me, so can you come?"
"Twilight is getting late, really?"
"YES! I have so many questions!"
"You know he won't say anything, not until he sees Miranda, how about tomorrow? Since Luna agreed with the plan, he sees Miranda and you already ask the questions what do you think?"
"Hmm it looks ok."
"Ah and Twilight."
"Hm?"
"Think of a name and ... Well, a disguise that is not purple ok?"
"Why?"
"Because do you always choose purple as a disguise and have trouble trying to name a name, we don't know how much of us he knows, so be prepared."
"Ok ... But you make me look like a filly!"
"Oh but you are, you are my little filly! And it won't be a crown or a pair of wings that will change that!"
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
* sigh * seriously, Cadence is really committed to helping them, is that the right thing? In all my years, in any similar situation, the situation always ends badly, and he is not any criminal, he is a murderer, a murderer of deities ... Am I getting old? Luna, who has her head still a little over a thousand years old, accepted Cadence's proposal, and I, I denied until the last word ... But it doesn't matter, with Luna and Twilight wanting his release, all I can do is delay, no prevent their release and reunion ... All I can do is prepare, if what Discord told me is true, we will need all the help needed ... Damn Discord, always, when I need you most, you disappear , always disappear ...
"Princess?" I am taken out of my thoughts by the cell guards, I even blush, how did I let myself wander around so much?
"Okay, soldier, where's Captain Oak Shield?"
"In there princess, would you like an escort?"
"Not soldier, it's not necessary, you can rest, I'll take care of that."
Unlike Damian, whose body is all injured because of the burns, this ... Dragoness left the battle almost intact, so I managed for her in a cell, the safest and deepest of them, cell number 600, there were few beings who already lived in that cell, and now ... There is this * laughs * dragoness, we'll see.
"Ahhh princess? Have you come to visit me? This guard is boring and keeps asking questions."
"How do you know it's me? Captain, did you remove her blindfold?"
"Prince-"
"Ahah! Knew!" I blush, old trick, how do I fall into it? Well, it doesn't matter, she knows who i am, so all the tricks went down the drain.
"Princess Celestia? I'm sorry, but I requested Luna."
"She is at rest, don't worry, I will take care of this situation, you can withdraw."
"Negative princess, I will not leave your side while you are here."
These captains, just because they can upset me in situations like this doesn’t mean they should, Captain Oak Shield, a brown colored pegasus and black mane, emerald green eyes and if I’m not mistaken a cutie mark that is ... Well a shield made of wood, it seems to have changed also because of the Federation, everyone is changing ... Starting with the soldiers until reaching the population ... Where am i wrong?
"Ok captain, but just look ok? I ask the questions."
"So ... Miranda right?"
"I will not answer your questions, I want to see my father."
"Dad? Are you sure about that? Is he your dad?"
"Hi? What kind of question is this?"
"Is that he doesn't seem to be the type that ... Has relationships with dragons, he looks more like the one that kills dragons."
"And the problem?"
Doesn't she care about that? What kind of dragon doesn't care about a dragonslayer? "I understand, but look ... Look ... Miranda? Is that your name?"
She laughs, "look Celestia, it's horrible not to know where your ... Lovely voice comes from or to be able to see you, could you undo the blindfold?"
"As if that happens," I cast a spell, light, almost useless on one of its claws, an inhibitor that a foal could undo if it tried, let's see ...
"Hmm ... So you came to redo the inhibitor right? I thought Luna was the one who took care of these things."
"For someone who, I only speak when I see my father, you are very talkative."
There she was, a ... Sapphire dragon ... Magic chains around the body, a magical inhibitor on each wrist, hurriedly and immobilized, knees bent and firm, blinded by a magical blindfold made by me personally, and even so she can smile ... What's wrong with them?
"Speak Celestia, speak your doubts so I can say no and we can end this."
"Ok ... What are you?"
"Hi?"
"You are not a sapphire dragon, much less a dragon."
"Hehe ... Of all the questions, I don't know what to answer, I'm a dragon, can't you see? '
"Don't be silly, look at your size, seven years old and are you already like that? That's what bother me, it took me a while to get the points together, but I got them together. " She laughed, laughed so loudly that even the guards outside the cell noticed, even with the silencing spells around the cell. "
"Really? What do you think am i? Am ... His daughter, he took me in, gave me a roof, he avenged me and saved me, Celestia, I don't know what your game is but it won't work, and about the spells? I found flaws in them so i-- "
"MY SISTER DOES NOT FAIL IN HER SPELLS, THEN IT IS BETTER TO END THIS GAME, WHAT YOU ARE !!!"
"God, you could cast a deafness spell too, come on then. Hi, I'm Miranda, a sapphire dragon, and you?"
For Faust, she is worse than Damian, what does she want? It doesn't look like she's lying, but a dragon, a sapphire dragon, with only seven years! Undo two Luna spells? Have flaws? I would like to see these flaws, I was not born yesterday, something is wrong with this dragon ... And I will find out.
"Ok Miranda, if you don't want to contribute to your release I will retire, but I warn you, if any of these inhibitors break down again, I will guarantee a one-way ticket to Tartaro, understood Miranda?"
"If you say, but you know, the one you put is really bad, very bad."
"I repeat, if any of them break ..."
"Ok ok ok go away ok? It sucks to talk to nothing."
This dragon is unbearable! I already talked to several of them, proud to the last scale, but this one? It doesn't fit the patterns I'm used to, sigh, maybe, maybe I'm hurrying up? Maybe Twilight and Cadence are right ... Heavens, I need more tea.
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
The sun has already risen, two days since Damian was arrested, now is it time to review the disguise, false name? Check, perfect disguise? Check, trust? Checks, anxiety and fear of dying? Double check! I hope everything goes well, my friends arrived at night, and slept here, except Rainbow who seems to have arrived earlier and remains missing, Applejack bet two bits that Rainbow would be in a bar drinking , Pinkie said she went to a mega-super secret pegasus party or something, then I have to see who won this bet, I'm with Applejack on it, it wouldn't hurt a few more bits, although I do have the real Canterlot vault, it's not something I like to abuse.
"TWI! If you delay you will miss the reunion!"
"I'm going!"
I prepare and spell and I see myself transforming into a navy blue unicorn with a purple mane with a red streak, perfect! The name if I'm not mistaken was Shining Sparkle, with that I smile triumphantly, nobody recognized me like that! And what was the cutie mark? I look at my side to see a parchment with a feather, generic, common, easily forgettable and confused! Ok Twilight, it's now, I'm going to help a completely new species to adapt to Equestria! Help him, and well, maybe learn a thing or two! I cannot contain the laughter of joy and anxiety! A new species, by Faust, I already see the newspapers! Princess catalogs new species! Today is going to be a great day!
I'm a little nervous, Cadence said that my disguise was not good, she said that it's very obvious, there it is! No disguise will be better to hide the obvious than the obvious itself! I believe in my ability to prepare a good disguise, and she in my confidence in his naivete, I don't see why such a statement, but this is already past, it is happening! The princesses, and all the captains are here! Sharp Sword, Cutie Crush, Dusk Dawn, Golden Oligarchy, Light Feathers, Golden Shield, Diamond Sword and Brave Heart, only Captains Oak Shield and New Hope did not attend due to being busy at the Griffin Federation, and the high Captain Eclipse who must be in a bar drinking, really? How celestia allowed him to get that rank! No, focus, now the question is how to start a conversation? Think Twilight ...
"Sister, if you like it, you can take the blindfold off."
"You know that I don't like it Luna."
The voice! I forgot to cast a spell on my voice! Calm down i still have time! I just have to be discreet.
"Please Celestia, we have made all possible preparations, we have all the captains available here, now could you undo their blindfold? And also the spell of deafness of course, I think Damian is having a thing."
She couldn't be more sure, since the deafness spell was launched he is different, sometimes he starts screaming out of nowhere or, speaking obsessive words out of nowhere, it's ... Uncomfortable.
Celestia sighs in defeat, my master did not really want this meeting, if it were a year or two ago I would agree with her, but she said it herself! 'Twilight, now that you are a princess, you will have to make choices, choices that can go against mine or my sister, so when choosing, always choose with your heart, because the head can give the best answer, however, the heart will give the right answer. ' * sigh * sorry that my heart and Celestia's heart are at odds, but this is what I think is right, so I will do it!
With a small noise we see the magical blindfolds unraveling, that white aura around the eyes is undone with unparalleled elegance, it could be none other than one of my master's masterpieces! Then the spell of deafness and that's it, they are there, ignoring us, just looking at each other while they are suspended vertically in the air, and as fast as possible they started to cry and talk ... I don't know ... It wasn't equestrian, maybe ... No ... The language was different ... Wait, is that a completely new language?!?!? By Faust it is! So that was his book! I can't believe it, and I think it was a kind of ancient Equestria language! Must have come from his world! He owns the book! Sooo many questions!
"Damian, stop speaking ... This language, if you want to communicate, communicate in Equestrian."
I don't know if it was their tears and almost cries or dislike for the princess, but he ignored her! She is one of the Equestria rulers! How can it just be ignored like that!
"Damian, could you please stop talking in Portuguese? We want to help you guys here."
Portuguese? Damn it, obviously the language already had a name, silly Twilight, what were you waiting for? A new and nameless language ?! It would be asking too much, but it seems that Cadence's dialogue worked, they were no longer rambling on what seemed like an exciting reunion, now they were both staring at us, analyzing, looking at the room and those in it, bad start, that means that ---
"I already tell you Damian, I left my best guards outside the dungeon, there is no escape, so stop analyzing a way out and focus more on answering the questions, was I clear?"
"What do you mean, princess? I would never think of escaping from your presence, especially since I don't see a certain purple alicorn, if she is not here, it means that she is outside, inside here is more ... Safe."
Ok Twilight, it's now, remember, don't hesitate, focus "you must be talking about Princess Twilight, she followed Cadence's advice and went to her castle, so she sent me to take her place!" dumb dumb dumb! It's not Cadence, it's Princess Cadence!
"Know..."
Please bite! Don't be suspicious!
"Weird..."
He found out! By Faust he found out! What do I do! Run? Do i hide? I apologize to Cadence for ruining everything! What do I do!!!
"I don't remember killing you."
"What?" what?
"I was looking around the room and seeing who I already killed, guess what, miss, I didn't kill you, what is strange, sent by Sparkle is? Who are you?"
"I-I--"
"She is a Twilight student, I indicated her myself." thank you Celestia!
"Swear? Damn you must have escaped, good, do what, you wouldn't be the first, for example, Starlight ran away with the whole school! A school, seriously that was the insane." Did Starlight escape with the school? This gets more interesting with each passing minute.
"Are you sure Damian? I think that soldier over there you didn't kill."
"Brave Heart? Of course I killed him! How could I not kill him? Look at his name! I love that movie!
He just ... Ok, maybe i need other strategies, will my non-death help or hinder? I have to see, maybe I need to change the disguise and change my origin ...
"How dare you say that! A monkey like you wouldn't be able to bet me, monster!" and there goes the extraordinary ego of Brave Heart speaking louder, good captain, determined, and he only lost to Diamond Sword, but in terms of intelligence...
"What is it? Didn't you like to die only in my world? Do you want to die again?"
"stop you two, Brave Heart, you have been informed of Damian's personality, keep quiet until it is resolved and Damian, please, without further comment."
Does he know about the ten noble families? Not all Equestrians know the noble families, and a ... Human knows, I feel almost ashamed of this fact.
"What did you do with the ten noble families, monster!"
"Let's say they were more difficult than you are!"
"Now yours !!!"
"Golden Oligarchy, please have manners, the next one who speaks without my authorization will be out of the cell, regardless of whether he wants to or not."
"So, what will it be? What do you want to do now, princesses?"
"Damian, don't give me any ideas ..."
"What Celestia means is ... Damian ... Me ... We ... We believe that you deserve a chance, everypony deserves a chance, you harbored hate and fear for us, therefore, I as princess of love, I would like to give you a chance, a chance to start over, to leave the past in the past. "
"You know i killed all alicorn right?"
"Yes Damian ..."
"And all alicorn includes your daughter."
"Damian ... I don't like this thought, but, I'm going to give you the advantage of the doubt, because ... I want to understand, what makes somepony do this! I want to help you! I can't consider myself a deity of virtue without trying to help you! "
And now! He is thinking, I can see his face, reasoning, scheming, understanding and occasionally looking at Miranda.
"I ... I really didn't understand, look Cadence, let me see if I understand, do you want to let me go?"
"NO!"
"Hmm, what my sister means is that, yes, you will have a certain freedom, you will be able to walk around the castle, but you will be with magical limitations and constant vigilance when leaving the castle."
"I don't know if it's ideal, where is my privacy?"
"Damian, we want to help, but we need to start somewhere, and now this place is with this security, I believe that in time we will be able to remove all limiters!"
"And my stuff?"
"Everything related to, hmmm, trophies? I'm sorry but that will be saved and destroyed for respect for those ponies."
"Do you have any idea of the work that gave me to put all that together?"
"I can imagine, but Celestia wouldn't accept it, horn users, with horns in her kingdom, it was a condition, Damian, if you behave, maybe you can keep the feathers or the mane, what do you think?"
"I have a choice? It will be fun, so where do I sign!"
I felt a cold run down my spine! The way he speaks and acts, is strange, unconcerned, even irresponsible! How did he ... Kill the greatest sorcerers of Equis?
"Ha, just one thing, since you have your ... Requirements, I have one."
"And what would that demand be?"
"If princess Twilight Sparkle steps on this castle, any and all chords that we make are undone and canceled, understand?"
It is a strange ... Requirement, but he does not seem the most normal of beings that exist, I do not see why to deny this, since Shinig Sparkle is not Twilight Sparkle.
"Any particular reason?"
"No, but this is the deal."
"You are aware that you are not in a position to demand anything."
"So put the blindfold and deafness back on, I'll find a way to get out of here, already get out of worse situations."
"Princess, if you allow me, I believe it is an easily accepted demand, I can send letters to my master and keep her informed of the situation without her having to come here."
"Did you see Luna? She knows how to negotiate, I already liked you."
I would be happy to know that he, 'already liked me' but the way it was said and Miranda's laugh tells me that I got the situation wrong.
"So? Are you going to let me go or what?"
"Damian, seriously, I'm trusting you, my credibility is at stake, please collaborate with us."
It is now, with a monumental hesitation on the part of Celestia, a certain anxiety on the part of Luna and a considerable expectation on the part of Cadence, that the spell that held Damian in the air is gone.
I consider the ponies stupid, inferior beings who do not know the advantages of having hands, are also sentimental and foolish when their feelings are on the table, now, let me go? I know there's no way I can get out of here, I know these captains, fighting with them all now would be crazy, even more without my equipment, add the princesses, the guards outside, Miranda and the student of the purple demon makes the escape impossible , maybe I can hurt or kill one of them and that's it.
This necklace from hell was made by Discord and the god of chaos is very creative with his ... Accessories, whatever the action that activates the necklace, I don't want to know, for which, now there is only one thing I want.
"Where is my stuff?"
"I already told you that ---"
"No, i don't want the weapons, i want a bottle of wine, a small bottle with a draconic message on it."
"I ... This can be arranged, but now Damian can you go with Luna and the guards to your room?"
"No, wherever I go, Miranda goes too."
"As if we were--"
"Ok, but Damian, * sigh * don't do anything you can regret."
I cannot contain a small laugh, "too late princess, too late ..."
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
None, I repeat, there is no camera in this room, a force field or sound blocker, seriously, the most advanced thing I found was a rune on the wall to prevent us from throwing ourselves out the window, my God, what incredible security , I'm crying with pride ...
"Damian ... What now?"
"Hehe, you don't have to call me that, you can call me dad, if you prefer daddy!"
The face she made was priceless, there are few things in this world that are better than torturing or killing ponies, one of which is making Miranda blush with anger or shame!
"I swear to God, one of these days I'll kill you, and I never called you that!"
"Yes, you did! I remember!"
"You have no proof, so it's a lie."
Only Miranda to make me laugh in a situation like this, we are stuck in one of the highest towers, each with magic inhibitors, we are vulnerable ... If something happens, I cannot save Miranda, if they decide ... Calm Damian, not now, breathe, calm down, this is the last place you want to have an attack, think, how to get out of this ...
"You know Damian, how is our world? Like, not yours, mine know?"
"How long have we been here?"
"Four days?"
"Yes, something like that, well, in three days we will have nowhere to come back, Bloody Novel will start Plan B, ouch ... Well, we will be rulers from nowhere, just a giant crater."
"Is it just seven days? Wasn't it a month?"
"Nahh, a month is a long time, Bloody Novel would be bored."
"Since when do you care about the feelings of the ponies?"
"Don't play dumb, you know that some, some very specific ponies are worth caring about, she's just one of them, man, she must be furious."
"I doubt it, in four days she won't kill the entire squad, and as long as she has someone to play with, she'll be in a good mood."
"True ... But I didn't want to leave her there ..."
"Ohh how cute, will it be love?"
How dare she! She managed to make me blush! only she can do that, God, if she weren't my daughter ...
"Love? I think you are rushing, our relationship is strictly professional, besides I'm married remember?"
"You are without the engagement ring remember?"
My alliance ... She ... * sigh * damn Miranda, the ring and the photo of my family is the only thing I have in my world, except the Bible, but fuck the Bible, a lot of nonsense, and I lost the ring. ... It was in the Crystal Empire fight if I'm not mistaken, when it started it was on my finger, and when the fight was over he was gone, I turned that place over ... I never found it again ...
"Well, even without an engagement ring, I'm still faithful to Maria, and Bloody Novel only had eyes for death."
"Don't talk shit, she loved you, like, really loved you, in her way, but that was love! You saved her and her friends from slavery in the icy north and gave her a house, food and taught her how to defend herself, damn Damian. "
What? Did she love me? Me ... Jesus, my God, i ... God of the sky what do i say?
"What is it? Did Bloody cut your tongue?"
"L-look here! I'm happily married and thank you! She knows that! I ... Didn't know, I thought she liked Star Fall!"
"She fucking killed Star Fall! you paid a lot of attention to your personal guard, god."
This conversation will come to nothing, but did she really like me? I mean, look at me! I am a genocide who slaughtered millions of her species! I killed her Gods! I destroyed her country just because I could! My god ... Me ... Fuck what a shit situation, just for Miranda to do something like this, it must be a women's game, sure.
"Ok, no more talk of talking about the past, let's do as Cadence said, let's leave the past in the past."
"What? You were fucking thinking about killing them, if that's leaving the past in the past, my God."
"Shhhhh! The walls have ears!"
"They know Damian, don't even try to disguise it."
Yes, she is right, the murderous looks I gave them were undeniable, especially when we were coming to this humble room, which by the way has only one bed, hmmmm, I'm going to sleep on the floor, shit.
"Damian ..."
"Hmm?"
"You ... You know, what do you think about starting over? Like, really, without trying to kill them, because I know you’re thinking about it, like, let's start over, leave the past, the genocides and everything behind , you know, it was cool, but ... I don't know ... It seemed very ... Unnecessary. "
What ... Miranda ... I walk slowly towards her, when i'm inches away i grab her face with one hand and analyze him.
"H-hey! What are you doing!"
No green eyes, no strange smell, normal reaction, is her, it's strange.
"Why? My god Miranda you may have a chance to kill them! I mean, you always complained that you didn't kill them because you didn't have a chance, that's your chance!"
"The princesses of our world were different, they betrayed you, the country was going from bad to worse ... What I mean is, I understand your hatred for them and their world, but ... This world is not the world that betrayed you, is a new world, they are not the same, they are different! They can be different! They did nothing!
I ... She seems serious about it, without jokes, without screaming or anything like that, she is serious ... What do I do? And if I say no but she still wants to stay in this world! And if- if I try to destroy this world and she tries to protect him! My god if-if-if-if ---
"You're going to kill her, as you killed us all, as you killed Cadence, as you killed Luna or Pinkie, ohh, as you killed Discord, it will be the same!"
No ... Not now, calm down I have to--
"No Sr. Spencer, stop hiding, show what you are, a monster, a creature of mass destruction, a genocide who plays ... Foal-headed football why did that look fun, where is this Damian? that Warrior? That killer? Where? Where? Where? Where? WHERE?!?!?!?!?!
"STOP!!!"
God ... No ... I feel Miranda's arms on my shoulders, it seems that some tears forming in her sapphire eyes that she had, her concern evident ... When I sat on the floor? I didn't feel my knees failing me ... God ... I can't take it anymore ... I can't take this anymore, they always come back, I ... I want this to stop, I can't take these ... These visions of hell anymore ! I can't take any more having to depend on a SEVEN YEAR OLD CHILD to keep my mind sane! God, I ... I can't take any more living ... God I wish it would all end ...
"Damian ... * smiles * dad... I know you can't take this anymore, let's end this, what do you think? Here, here they can't follow you anymore! It's not their world, and if they try, we'll end they them together! What do you say? "
"D-do you think that I can start over? After what I did? After this endless nightmare! After failing night after night, trying and failing, do you think we can win? Please Miranda, don't lie to me, why I can't take another lie, you, my daughter, do you think I can start over, leave the past in the past, and ... Live here? "
"I don't know ... But aren't you the one who always said? If we don't try--"
"We don't win ... Really, just you to..."
"I love you dad ..."
"I love you too dear... I love you too..."
Author's Note
This chapter gave me a lot of work, it was difficult to make it look organic and natural, Damian has very serious problems, and I didn't want him to simply say: 'fuck it, let's start over' you know? I wrote this chapter four times before it was like this, well, I hope you liked it
Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
Memories of the past: Changelings part 1
There are few things that surprise me in this world, after you destroy an entire city made of crystal, the abnormal is normal, but a black horse with holes in its hooves, with horn and insect wings is something I didn’t expect, I know what which is a changeling, but I only heard stories, I never saw one in person, I mean, until now.
In front of me, surrounded by the whole DNE, there was a changeling, small, scared ... Hmm normally I would kill him for invading my castle, but ... He made me curious about that little chest, it looks like an offering, I like offerings .
"Get away from him, let him talk."
"T-thanks, almighty and sublime destroyer of--"
"Stop it, only ponies have to act like this, you can speak normally."
"II am an envoy from Queen Chrysalis' hive, she sent these gifts as a gesture of good faith, and-and invites you to her hive, to celebrate the fall of Equestria ..."
"She is late, Equestria fell three months ago, and the Crystal Empire one month, but ... Since I have nothing to do now, and I can't stand reading old scrolls anymore, I accept."
"My lord, i believe you are making a mistake, changelings are cunning and treacherous, it can be dangerous."
Bloody Novel, always worried about everything, she has to learn to relax, maybe I'll give her a break, yes ... She needs it, two recruits were killed this week, I think she really needs a break.
"Don't worry Bloody, do you think I'm a fool to fall into a trap? Tell your queen that I will."
"My lord, I would like to participate in this visit."
Ahhh, i'm almost touched, this gray unicorn still surprises me, but no.
"Sorry but you have to stay here and protect Miranda, she is starting to learn to fly, so I need you to stay and keep the house in order."
"Ok sir ... What about plan B?"
"A month, then use it and go to the meeting point, a month there, if I don't show up you know what to do."
She nods and mumbles something inaudible, well, what are we waiting for? Let's see this Queen Chrysalis hive!
I've been flying in their carriage for almost two hours, they keep going south, oh, we're on ponyville! Well, what's left of it, which in this case is limited to a ... Hut near Everfree, damn it, I thought they had already destroyed that hut, well, at least the gifts were good, I look at the chest that was in mine lap, it had several good things in it, what caught my attention the most were the fabrics, it was a kind of silk, it was resistant and soft, green of course, like everything changeling does, but it's beautiful, besides that fabric, there is a jar that from what I was told have royal jelly inside ... I don't know how it is done, but it has an incredible smell, I opened the lid and tasted it, the taste is sublime, the testura, the smell, the consistency, simply incredible, the changeling to the my side seems ... Bothered by the fact that I'm eating this, he seems nervous and tries to avoid eye contact, I don't like it.
"What is it? Is it taboo or something?"
"No sir, is that ... The smell ... Royal jelly is unique food for my species."
"I see ... Do you want some?" I extend my arm with the jar, I can see his eyes following the glass, fixed on him, he ... Is he sweating? It is possible? My god, this world always surprises me.
"I don't know if it would be right, sir, this gift was given to you by the queen."
"I understand ... But do you want it or not? It will be our little secret."
He lights up his horn, and a small amount of the jelly comes out of the glass, floating up to him, slowly, and he is always looking at me, as if I am to be sorry or something.
"Are you going to eat or not?" and with that he stuffs everything in his mouth, tears form in his eyes, not from pain, anger or fear, but from joy, the purest joy, I liked him.
"What's your name my dear changeling?"
"Hard shell ..."
He is worried, sweating and looking around, when he’s not crying while eating the jam, it’s good, I won’t deny it, but there are enough, three whole jars, sharing one with him doesn’t hurt.
"But tell me, why did it take so long to invite me to this party?"
"My queen was preparing the best party possible, so the invitation would only be sent when the party happened."
"Is the party going on?"
"Yes, my Sir."
Holy shit, I thought it was an invitation to a stay there, and that the party would happen later, not that I was going to a big party, well, I can't do anything, we are already arriving according to him, this hive must be on Everfree, where it will be? Well, I'll see, now I keep the rest of the presents in my suitcases, I think he sighed with joy or surprise when he saw the two other jars of jam, but that's his problem, one of them is for Miranda and the other is mine.
Besides the jelly and the fabric doesn’t have a lot of value in the chest, some pretty jewelery, rare gems and of course, a lot of bits, seriously, if it weren’t gold coins I would be offended, gold is always good, who doesn’t like gold? That's good, I close the box and put it in the corner of the carriage, which was the important thing I already kept there.
"Oh, we’re almost there sir, you can see our destiny alredy." I was curious and looked out the window, my god ...
"THAT'S MY OTHER CASTLE !!!"
Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
Memories of the past: Changelings part 2
My God ... That's the sisters' castle, my castle! My base, my refuge and hiding place! They invaded him and made a hive there! Damn communists! By God, if it weren't for that very good royal jelly, and the highest quality fabrics, I would have finished them off, just for stepping on the castle, just for the boldness of thinking they deserve this place, God, I'm furious.
"Sir, are you ok?"
"Ok? This is my castle! What the fuck are you doing in it ?!"
"Calm down, sir, we, I don't know what you're talking about, the castle was abandoned when we found him!"
Abandoned? Yes, it was a while since I went to it, but it is still my castle! I want to see this queen Chrysalis, let's have a real conversation, and she will have a bad time.
They even cleaned a part of the castle to put the carriage, the castle ... They put a kind of wax around it ... This is almost unrecognizable, almost, it was still my home for a long time, I know some things that identify the castle, like the sister towers, the tower ... THEY REBUILT THE TOWERS! Fuck, it took a lot of time to knock it down, then they go there and rebuild it, seriously, my God.
We landed with a considerable thud, I leave the carriage with my things, I will not leave anything for them to steal! They already took my castle, I want to see them try to take my trophies.
Two changeling approach me, well dressed ... True, Hard Shell also wore a small suit, strange, they are the first quadrupeds who wear clothes normally, well I hope it’s normal to wear clothes here, it would be a sign of civilization , for some reason the people of this world find nudism something cool and acceptable, barbarians obviously.
"Mister Damian?"
"Yea?"
"Your things please."
"Nope, they stay with me."
"B-but sir! I have to--"
"My things stay with me, thanks for understanding!"
They were ... Confused, one looked at the other thinking about something to do, I think they are not used to receiving a no, well, it's not my problem, my things stay with me and that's it.
"Damian, it's their job, don't worry."
"* sigh * my things stay with me, and that's it."
I walk towards the giant doors that led to the throne room, I ignore them and their attempts to get my luggage, my God they feel like flies buzzing in my ears, I'm almost regretting it.
"P-please Mr. Damian, at least let us announce your arrival!"
"Ok, but be brief, I want to see your queen at once."
I see them both pass by me and enter the room, Hard Shell is still beside me, a little worried about something, I can tell when someone is anxious, and he is giving all the signals.
"--- and with you, Mr. Damian from New Equestria!"
My cue, I enter the room, when I was about to touch the door when it opens, ok, magic, I smile the best I can and I enter, I see the light in the room revealing a place ... MAGNIFICENT! That throne room, once destroyed and in ruins, was now alive, the walls were reformed, the pillars were no longer broken, magic lamps were flying through the sky, my God it was like Hogwarts! Without the green wax and the countless insects very well dressed by the way.
When I stepped into the room I was greeted with applause, well, pony applause, which is basically hitting the floor, well, they work with what they have, I smile more and raise one hand and wave back, ok, one minute at the party and I'm already the center of attention, man Rafael dies of envy! Ahah finally I am the star! Suck Rafa! So I see, sitting on a very beautiful throne by the way, a changeling, she was tall and slender, thin and with a well-done hairstyle, adorned with various emerald colored jewels, I think she would be ... Beautiful? It is complicated, if you remove the holes in the hooves it would be considered beautiful without a doubt, but those holes may remove one or two points of beauty, I don't know, I have to see it later.
"Ah! You must be Damian Spencer! I was waiting for you to arrive!"
The queen so? I walk towards her, occasionally receiving praise from the changelings and see some guards staring at me and following my path, obviously they would have something like that, it would be foolish not to have, they know who I am.
I'm a few centimeters away from her, the compliments stopped, the eyes were on me, I saw three guards on the ceiling, I think there's one more but I don't know if it was just a shadow, on the floor there were six of them, two around the queen, two behind me, and two on the side doors, that is clear without counting the guards who are disguised as civilians at the party, the tension is almost palpable, they are prepared for the worst, they are ready to attack me, well, I liked them, with a quick movement I bend slightly, some guards even reacted and drew their swords but I ignored them.
"Greetings Queen Chrysalis, thank you very much for the invitation, I see that you renovated my castle."
"It was nothing Damian, but, about the castle, sorry, I didn't see your name on it." she is smiling, making a point of showing all her teeth, I liked her.
"Well, I see your guards are already too, well," I turn to the guests, everyone still staring at me, Hard Shell looked like he was having a heart attack "LET THERE BE PARTY!"
It didn't take long for the guards to start walking away and stare at me from afar and the party returned to normal, I went to the table with food, my God, cake, sweets and savories of various kinds, but of course... No meat or similar, then, almost as if heard by the universe I see a tray appearing in front of me, and man, in it there was a steak, a very beautiful steak, I was drooling before tasting it! I turn around and see the queen blinking at me, okay, I loved her, she knows how to treat a guest.
It's been almost two hours and I was sitting next to the queen eating another one of these steaks, God, it's been so long that I didn't eat real food, I mean, cut a pony and put it on a skewer and bake it's not there to cook, not like that! That's so... Good! The texture, the flavor, my God... Simply very good.
"Tell Damian, what did you think of my hospitality?"
"Incredible my queen, ten, sublime."
"Swear? What about the castle issue? Hmm?"
"It's yours!" what? Why did I say that? This is my castle, I... Man, I'm sleepy, I think eating five steaks will give in this *sigh* I think already this afternoon.
"What was Damian? Do you look tired?"
"It's the food, Queen, I think I ate too much."
"Don't need these titles Damian, you've done an immeasurable favor to my people, so you can call me by my name."
"Hmm, I don't know, you're a queen, besides that we're in your kingdom."
"Please do this for me?"
"Ok, hmmm, Chrysalis?" she waved lightly, okay I think that's it, I prepare to get up when I see my dish disappear just to appear another steak, but this steak ... That smell...
"I've learned that your favorite food is pegasus... What do you think of eating some more?"
"You don't have to say it twice, my God a pegasus, if it's close to what the rest of the steaks were... Hmmm, let's see."
"Who is this God you speak of? A deity of your world?"
"He's an asshole, but yes, he's from my world."
How long has it been? Two hours? Three? I don't know, I just know that the moon is already high in the sky, man, they even closed the hole in the ceiling, damn it, I liked that hole...
I look around, many of them are withdrawing, only me and the queen are in the throne room.
"Chrysalis, this party was amazing and everything, my castle is a little broken and the food is not so good, but you are invited to go there anytime you want! But now I think I'm going to go."
"But already? The night has barely begun, I think you'd better sleep here, it'll be better, tomorrow you leave without worrying about Everfree monsters."
She's got... A very good argument, I don't want to go away, I want to sleep, and the road would be very long, "ok Chrysalis, you won, where do I sleep?"
She smiles and stands up, "follow me" and walks towards one of the side doors, I get up a little reluctant to leave the comfort of the chair, but the idea of a bed was enough to give me encouragement.
We are a while walking through the castle, really, all tidy, every hole, every crack, redone, repaired, the castle was, better...
"Say Damian, I'm aware you have a daughter, right ?"
"Miranda? Yes, she's my little princess."
"And who's the lucky one?"
"Hi? I'm sorry Chrysalis, but nothing happened between me and Miranda's mother, she was... Too temperamental... She was a friend... A friend who is no longer in this world..."
"Then is she adopted?"
"Seems disappointed?"
"No, of course not, is that I thought that the murderer of the sisters would already have a queen, or rather an empress hmm?"
Ahhhhhh... I understood, seriously, priceless. "I have Chrysalis, believe it or not I have, and she is in my world, waiting for me..."
"What if it's not? Seven years is a long time Damian."
"I know... But I love her, that's a fact that never changed... I even dream about her sometimes..."
"I understand... But tell me Damian, you never had," she stops in front of my bedroom door and casts a glance at me... Seductive? "Curiosity?"
"Calm queen, I'm a married man, don't take hasty actions!"
She seemed, disappointed? I think that was it, but seriously? If that was her plan? Well, whatever, the food was great, if she wants to try again hehe... He...
"I see, I greatly admire a person faithful to a cause or to someling, you have my respect Damian." was that a spell? I felt something, yes... There's magic going on in the air... What's she doing?
"Damian... Do you want me to come in?"
* laugh*, I walk by her and I open the door, when I'm inside I turn to her, she was... My God she was beautiful! Her eyes... The small but singular smile she showed, her hair braided and what I discovered during the party, dyed red, her body, slender, not too big, not too small.... MY GOD WHAT I'm THINKING!!! "NO!"' slammed the door the Strongest I've ever done in my life! I heard her laughing at something.
My God I'm sweating! What was this! My heart is beating fast ... Christ! I take my suitcase and look for a magic analysis horn, over there! I take him and send him mana ... Nothing ... Not even a spell or enchantment ... Jesus ... What did she do? * sigh * I look around, a simple room, bed, closet, window ... It looked normal, hehe ... Fuck ... Congratulations queen, you managed to destabilize me, but it won't happen again, I keep the case next to the bed and I throw myself on it, soft, comfortable and the pillow! My God it's comfortable ... So ... Comfortable ... ZZzz...
Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
Memories of the past: ... And escaped.
Author's Note
SPOILER ALERT!!! he escape!!!
Memories of the past: ... And escaped.
I... I am alive, I blink a few times, I try to move but there are several straps around my body, what? Why am I alive? I'm sure I hit an artery... Seriously? I can't even die now; I just want it to end...
* Clack *
No, I close my eyes, I don't want to see Silk Touch, he trusted me and I cheat on him, sorry...
"Mr. Spencer, could you please open your eyes?"
Was it... Twilight? Why is she here? I open my eyes and see her; she is wearing a white coat... This is the Silk Touch coat! there are even some tears in it that were there before! "W-where's the doctor?"
"Dr. Silk Touch was transferred to another area due to his inability to control you and ignore advice and orders from a princess, sorry Spencer, you won't be seeing him again," no, it can't be, that means it is now... Just me and her... nonononono! "He left a message." she levitates a small paper and puts it on the table.
"Ok... Twilig--"
"Please Mr. Spencer, call me a doctor or Sparkle ok? Different from your old doctor, I don't intend to become a f-- I don't intend to bond with you, I hope you understand."
"So, did you become my new jailer or something?"
"Yes, Dr. Silk Touch has lost his right over you, now that responsibility falls on my shoulders."
It won't end well... Damn it! I did a lot of research, I found out how the spell keeps me alive and yet I failed! How! I was supposed to die!
"How did I survive?"
"Well, the spell that the doctor put on you was a simple spell to cancel the pain -" lie "- and a spell of regeneration, so your body doesn't get too damaged, I decide to add a touch of mine to his spell, so yours hurt was not enough to kill yourself. "
I understand, that explains a lot... Fuck I was so close... I...
"Don't worry Damian, now you're in good hoof, I'll make sure your stay is the best possible!" she turns and looks at my cell, her horn shines and with a small poof... My cell has changed, the sink is gone, the drawings and writing on the ceiling are gone, many books disappeared... She took everything... Everything the doctor gave me, I only had, there was only the Bible, on the table...
"Today I will give you a day off ok? But get ready, three hours is little time, I will double your contribution time, Equestria is losing the war, we are losing fight after fight, we need results Damian, without any more simple or domestic tests, I will start with military tests and increase the spell that eases the pain- " lie" -of course. "
Wait... She said she'll double the time... Jesus no! I have... I have to find a way to get out of here, dead or alive!
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
I wake up, I stand up and look at my arm, a small scar, one more for the collection... I take one of the legs from the table that I kindly broke during an anxiety attack... Yes, I'm starting to have nightmares and to see things, I think I'm going crazy, the table leg has a small point that I use to mark on the wall, today is the number one hundred and nineteen... It's the only thing... That reminds me of Silk Touch, I don't know how he is, Sparkle refuses to tell me.
* Clack *
"Mr. Spencer? Still vandalizing your cell?"
"You haven't given me a new table yet."
"It is not necessary, well I am coming with something new, now I have found a way to keep you awake."
"Hi? Sorry I don't understand." I leave the wood close to the wall, I already made the mark.
"Your fainting, they hinder the experiments, I need data and you cannot unconsciously supply them, now you will not pass out! Every time you lose consciousness you will wake up immediately! The most complicated tests can be done until the end! Imagine I could even increase your contribution time! Humans need only eight hours of sleep, right? "
I'm sweating... No... I can't even pass out from pain! What is it! This is inhuman, it is wrong, all this shit is wrong!
"Twilight how about--" * ZAP * No! Damian idiot! You can't call her Twilight! She is Sparkle or doctor, idiot.
"--Sparkle, how about you don't use this fainting business, if someone ----" * ZAP * IDIOT! It's somepony! Idiot! "--- if somepony faints it is because the body needs rest ..."
"Sorry Mr. Spencer, but the griffins broke two Equestrian defenses yesterday, we need results for yesterday, in fact I will reevaluate your rest day ..."
"What's going to be today, doctor?"
"Tests with electric discharges, skin collection other tests, blood collection, some acids and the refinement of the overload crystals."
Today is going to be hell... My god... How many things... I would normally pass out in the first... I shudder to imagine the pain and what scares me the most is that, even after months in this hell, I still I couldn't predict the pain, it's always worse than I think.
"Follow me, Mr. Spencer! Today will be a great day for Equestria!"
Reluctantly I move, the corridor has more guards than usual, it has doubled the number of guards... Again.
"Why do you have so many guards? They Shouldn't be fighting on the front?" some of them heard it, it was a mixture of reactions, some laughed others looked at me with the eyes of a few friends.
"Well... Somepony has been trying to enter the dungeons here, we believe he is a spy for the Federation, they recently ally themselves with a changeling hive."
Changeling... I never saw one of them... From what the books say they are horrible beings... They can't be worse than the ponies... Nopony-- nobody can.
We arrived, this room, it is so different from when Silk Touch was here, the instruments are now perfectly organized and look even cleaner, they just look like, there are several stretchers now, each one for a different test, one of them is a stretcher with one more of these rudimentary batteries, this battery is big, maybe it will kill me, it doesn't hurt to dream.
I lie on the stretcher, the last thing I want is for Sparkle to tell me to lie down, I learned that this ends badly.
She puts on some glasses and comes over, the straps now holding my body, a giant chain around my waist and a buckle keeping my head tight, let's get this over with.
She takes the two 'nails' and spikes each one in my arms, it hurts, I won't deny it, but I know it's nothing compared to what's to come, "doctor, can you start weak? Please." she looks thoughtful.
"Ok Spencer, but just today, come on, get ready!"
I breathe, is it horrible not to be able to move a muscle, legs? Well attached, arms? Nothing, not even a reaction, head? I can't even look to the side, it's- * zzt * - horrible, yeah, it wasn't a very strong discharge, but it was still a discharge me- * ZZTTT * - Jesus! "Princess! Take it easy! By god I asked to start slow!"
"We cannot waste time, Spencer, every second we spend on futile discharges, ponies are dying on the front lines."
So that's it, I think I can only prepare, it's horrible, I can't even see her, I don't know when the shock will start... It's distressing... - * ZZZZTTT * -! I think my vision is starting to blur, I think I'm going to pass out in a little while... Well, at least it's going to end - wait, I'm not going to pass out right? How does it work? I feel an aura around my head, "please Spencer, maintain eye contact with this sign while I prepare for the next test." I turn my head to see... A sign... It is a target, like the dartboard, and it has something written on it, and she, she is smiling, that is what scares me the most, Doctor Silk Touch never smiled during the sessions, it was his job, but he didn't smile, even when he made a big discovery, he wanted to scream with joy but he held on... She... She smiles! She likes it! She loves these tests! I'm sure, although she denies it, I'm sure she loves to cut and sew it back, and she doesn't even know how to do it.
* ZZZZZZZZZZZTTTTTTTTTT * I feel my body convulse, something comes out of my mouth while the discharge flows through my body, I try to scream, but she always puts a spell to keep me quiet during the sessions... I think... I think that... The discharge passed... I think... I... Woke up? Why am I still here? My god... The spell worked! Not! I try to struggle to free myself! I have to get out of here now! I feel the current trigger an electrical drain to make me quiet, I... My body is shaking, every fiber of my being that can shake is shaking... I hate the tests with shock...
"Hmmm ok Mr. Spencer, thanks for your cooperation, I have to change the tension and maybe we can focus the beam! Hmm yes... Spencer?"
"I-I..."
"Please get up and walk to the next stretcher."
The straps come loose, the chain breaks and I lift myself up, my body is shaking all over, I can barely walk in a straight line, when I support myself on the stretcher and I can lie down I feel the straps clinging again and this infernal chain appearing.
She walks towards me, several knives and planks float around her...
"Why so many knives?"
"I will collect skin from several parts simultaneously, this will speed up the tests a lot."
I feel the knives against my body, everywhere! Arm, leg, waist, belly, feet and hands, even my head!
"N-no... Please, you already have enough! What is this for!"
"I'm afraid not Damian, your skin has unique characteristics, and I believe that with sufficient study, he can create a means of identifying changelings more easily."
It started, she is shaving my skin, every cut she pulls out large pieces of skin, I try to scream but the spell prevents it, I try to struggle but I can't, all I can do is cry, cry while she makes me a cheese, grating piece by piece, the knives are already red, and yet she continues, she is skinning me alive! WHY! Why I can't die! It went on for hours before it ended... Every little breeze of wind is extremely strong, Jesus how it hurts, every part of me is burning, I can clearly see the muscles and veins, this is when she didn’t cut them... I found out that she is horrible with a knife... Jesus how it hurts... All I can do is look to the side and see while she messes with my skin... She puts fire, water, some strange liquids and everything else... It's disturbing to see that.
"EUREKA!!! I DISCOVERED !!!" she screams with joy as she jumps in place, she is celebrating another discovery...
"Did you hear Damian ?!" it's a big discovery, she forgot the protocol "I figured out how to destroy the changeling camouflage! This will end infiltrations! by Celestia the possibilities are countless!"
"W-what does that mean to me?"
"What do you mean?"
"The sentence..."
"Hmm a year, I think this is good, its main reward is that I don't need so much skin anymore, now the collections will be very few and sporadic." it's only a year, over a hundred days testing something for just one year... At least the collection is over... "Now I can conduct other tests! For Celestia I feel like a unicorn filly with her first magic book!"
Other tests...
"Don't worry, in an hour you will recover and I will make another collection to keep in stock, did you know that your skin maintains its magical qualities for up to a month when preserved?"
I force myself to wave, she is not looking, according to her it is a strong scene, a STRONG SCENE!
I... I can't take it anymore; I can't take it since I burned the Bible the fourth time and it reappeared intact the next day... I hate magic.
"Although... Mr. Spencer, I'm going to start the new tests now, take advantage of that you have no skin."
What? What she will do? She, my god she is coming with some scalpels and sirurgic materials MY GOD FROM THE SKY WHAT SHE WILL she do?!
"Look Spencer, I'm not trained in this area, so maybe you feel some pain or discomfort, nothing that the anesthetic spell doesn't count." lie lie lie LIE!
"THIS SPELL IS A LIE! I FEEL EVERYTHING! EVERY CUT! EVERY SHOCK! EVERY ACID! HE DON'T CHANGE ANYTHING!"
She didn't like it! My god what did I do! Can't scream! Damian idiot! Don't yell at your jailer! She will hurt me! Dumb dumb dumb!
"Well, SPENCER, my spell works correctly, I even called two renowned magic school masters to test it, the fact that your body is resistant to magic is not my problem, if I increase the power of the spell, it will interfere with the results and this is unacceptable! "
Isn't h-her mad? Jesus thankfully I thought that * ZAP * that pain again, I... It’s a horrible shock, I don’t know why, but the fact that I was without skin only made the pain even more distressing… my god it’s horrible to feeling of not having skin... It's not natural! It's... It's inpony!
"And moderate your tone, don't forget who I am."
"Y-y-yes doctor, sorry, it won't be repeated."
"I hope, now for surgery, it was for your old jailer to do these tests, but you did everything possible to end his work here, do you believe he lost his job?"
No, I, Silk Touch, sorry, how I wanted to have time to regret it, but the cold touch of a scalpel on my chest alerted me to her presence, it hurts in so many ways, she is cutting muscles and nerves directly, I try , I really try to scream, but nothing comes out, I try to struggle, but the pain it causes is tremendous, don't try to struggle when you were skinned... It hurts too much... In a matter of minutes it... Her opened my chest! The world is blinking, it seems that I am blinking frantically, but according to her this would be me passing out and waking up, god how I want to pass out, "stop crying, didn’t you say men don’t cry? Act like a man." MY GOD! I feel something! I do not know what is! I never feel this! She is touching something inside me! My god what a horrible feeling! What is she doing, my god why can't I die! "Will your organs have the same qualities as the rest of your body? Will they respond differently to the tests? And if I apply the tests while the organs are still in your body? * laughs * the possibilities! Your body is incredible! Sorry that you are not a female, we could... No, maybe it is too much... * laughs * no, science cannot know limits, damn it Mr. Spencer, why are you not a female? "
I wanted to curse her, but I couldn't speak... With her... I can't breathe, it's getting, the blinks are getting more intense! WHY! Why can't it all get dark at once! Why I can't die soon!
"Don't worry, I'll just take some of your lungs and other important organs, maybe you feel a twinge in your heart." she is mad! It has to be, she... This is wrong... This is sick, it is no longer tests for weapons... This has already become torture! Torture by ---
She... SHE IS SINGING! SHE IS SINGING WHILE I TRY TO SCREAM IN PAIN AND CRY! SHE IS SINGING WHILE CUT ME ALL! THIS MARE IS THE DEMON! IT CANNOT BE SOMETHING OTHER THAN THIS! IT HAS TO BE, SHE, SHE, MY GOD, EVERYTHING... EVERYTHING IS DARK...
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
She's putting some acid in my bloodstream, "who's a good boy?"
"I."
"And what do good boys do?"
"Good boys don't lie."
"And?"
"And do not scream and respect the doctor."
"Good."
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
I wake up... It's today... Today is going to be one of those days, I get up, the wall is smooth, clean, she found the risks improper, according to she encouraged vandalism, she is right, the master is always right, disobey the master causes pain, she... The master gives me chills but I can't say that, she will hurt me! She...
I walk to the toilet and start cleaning my face, yesterday was horrible, but that's a good thing! The ponies are winning! According to the master thanks to my help they caught several spies and the new magic weapons are destroying OUR enemies, in a week or two we will expel them from Equestria! It will be glorious! Will be... Will be...
I take my wallet, my wallet and the Bible, all I have left, inside the wallet is the picture of my... My family... Mia... Daddy... Daddy is tired Mia, but don't worry if I help the master, I can go to your graduation! Yea! It's been three years of sentence! Soon the penalty ends! I... I'm going dear! I hear footsteps, not Damian! Are hoofsteps! I keep my wallet and rise.
"Hi doctor!"
"Hello Spencer, come today it will be a great day! Aren’t you excited?
"Yea!"
I walk with her to the room and I lie down, I feel the bonds fastening on me, the chain... "Doctor can you take the chain off? It hurts a lot!"
"No Spencer, it collects data and nerve impulses, the chain can't come out, what's up? Didn't you like being able to move your head?"
"N-no I like it! Sorry I didn't mean to offend!"
"Well, keep it up and maybe I'll take a day or two for good behavior what do you think?"
"Very good! Thank you very much!"
I get ready, it will hurt, it always hurts, she approaches and starts cutting my chest with the... The scalpels, I don't like them, they hurt too much... Too much... But I have to take it! Men's don't cry! Men's don't scream! They help without complaining! Ahhhhh how it hurts! I already feel a tear forming, fast end, just end just end! ENDED! She already opened my chest! I feel that horrible feeling of air going in regions where it should never go, it's horrible! It's inpony! "Ok Mr. Spencer, now, are you ready? Will you be the first being with an artificial mana core! How do you feel?
horrible "ANXIOUS!"
She giggles, "I understand! But don't worry, I made the preparations yesterday, your body will accept it this time... I believe... I hope, well enough talk, time to make history!" she levitates... A mana core, this one has a gray color and has a stone texture, looks like a simple rock, I'm sweating from fear anxiety! It will be now!
She put! Right under my heart! It's terrifying exciting! I don't feel shocks or anything similar, the core! IT WORKED! I smiled in terror happiness "Twilight worked!" NOT! DUMB! IDIOT!
She... Her smile faltered "Spencer... The protocol, restrain yourself or I'll be obliged to apply a penalty." bitch .
"Y-yes doctor! Sorry this will not be repeated!" how pious you are... She... She is pious... And she is already closing my chest! She is so good!
"Spencer, for today it will be that, rest and tomorrow I will do other tests with the core."
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
"NO, PLEASE NO!" I try to escape but it is useless, the straps are very firm, nothing, I can't move a muscle because I'm so stuck.
"Stop drama, Spencer, it's just a simple acid."
"NO! IT HURTS! STOP, PLEASE STOP! STOP STOP STOP STOP * ZAP * STOP STOP * ZAP * STOP * ZAP * Stop... Stop * ZAP * Stop... "
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
I wake up and quickly get down and grab a small piece of wood under the bed, a knife, it was supposed to be a knife, I start biting, I have on average ten seconds to work on it, biting may not be the best way to make a knife , but that's what I have, there are steps! No! The master! I hide the knife and rise.
* Clack *
"Today Mr. Spencer will be a long day, we are going to test some acids and I need some tissue for... Private tests, we will also have another test with the Core."
"D-doctor... Did you... Did you get a new outfit?" I try my best to express the rags I use as clothes.
"Well ..." she sighs, "I can see that, hmmm actually... I know, Mr. Spencer, in five days you're going to be in for a surprise." he turns and walks away laughing, why does that send chills? Is the master planning something big? I hope not, her last big project was... That was awful.
* ZAP * "Come on Mr. Spencer, don't delay."
"I'm going, doctor!"
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
It is today... I get up and look at the table, there was a complete piece of clothes, pants, shirts and everything, I throw my clothes in a corner of the room and start getting dressed, it is a very good sewing... Who did it? I approach the bed and pick up a wooden knife, God, I feel like in Minecraft, * laughs * it’s not a good knife, it’s basically a piece of wood with a point, it was difficult to make that point, but this done, this is done, I hear hoofsteps... No, they are footsteps, I keep the knife on my shirt sleeve... Please don't realize please don't realize please don't realize please don't realize!
"Hello Spencer, today we have a very important test! It will be the celebration of a month after Equestrian victory in the war! It is not incredible!"
"Yea!" she still gives me creeps... Will it work? I don't think so, she is a god, she scared me, tortured me and for her it was a pleasure, although she denies I know, I know she is lying, she loves doing this, each cut, with each cut she sang a different song , with each torture she smiled... No more... I can't kill myself, I tried three times and failed three times, now, now I'm going to try something different... I know it won't work, my head doesn't work anymore, it is hard to think, who would say to think a plan, I just have to endure, endure as I have endured all these months!
"Come on, Mr. Spencer, I have something ready for today."
She didn't notice, good, I follow her down the hall, everything the same, everything has to be the same, today the day has to be perfect.
"Did you know, Mr. Spencer, that today has been a year since you were arrested? Three hundred and sixty-five days, you would have finished with the wall if you continued with that, right?"
"Right" there is little left, little left for the room and ---
"Princess Twilight?"
Shudder, that name... That name is damned! Cursed! She is Sparkle you idiot! Bad things happen to those who call her by her name!
No, it's just a guard... I didn't say that... * laughs * I think I'm going crazy... A guard... The plan is over; do I make another attempt to kill myself?
"Yes?"
"We were sent to protect you; the city is on high alert."
"Because of that?"
"Yes princess, please understand."
"Yes, well Spencer, it looks like we will have an audience."
There are two guards, a pegasus and a unicorn, I won't be able to take the knife and kill myself, they would prevent... * laughs * I can't even kill myself...
"What are you laughing about?"
"Just thinking... Just thinking."
* ZAP * "so stop thinking and come on Spencer."
It didn't take long, there are only two corridors from my cell to the torture room... A stretcher, just one... The room is clean, has some syringes on the tables and some knives and saws on the wall, wait...
"What did you think? I remade the room as the day it arrived! Today it will be a simple test, you know, to remember the day you arrived! Aren't you excited?" this bitch...
"Yes!"
I sit on the stretcher, the knife is in my left hand, if I'm not mistaken the doctor cut my right arm and made some cuts on my left hand, please don't realize, there are two guards here, they seem nervous, * laughs * first time seeing someone being tortured? Silly.
"Are you already laughing with excitement? Very good Mr. Spencer! It took a lot of work to do all of this."
She... She... She is insane, she really thinks that I... Let's play her game, I just hope this will end quickly, I feel the bonds attaching to my body and that hellish chain.
"Scalpels? Doctor, he used a saw before."
"Are you sure? Hmmmm I have to review the reports... Ok! Let's use the saw then."
Idiots, good thing I have a good ear, it's funny to hear them vomiting in anguish, it's almost a relief * laughs * my god why am I laughing so much? This isn’t even so funny, ok, I think it’s official, my head is gone, I think the sanatorium thing is no longer such an absurd idea.
There she is... The saw is just a few centimeters from me... It's started!
* BOOOOOM *
What? The room shook, the whole room is shaking! The guards left and are going up the corridor, I... I am on the floor; I think the explosion destroyed the stretcher? No... I feel a strange sensation... I look ahead, my knife is there, inches from me, and Sparkle is on the floor too, staring at the knife, her look... JESUS! IT'S NOW! I get up and pick up the knife, she knows what I'm up to * ZAP * ahah * ZAP * ahahaha * ZAP * "ahahahahaHAHAHAHAHAHAHA !!!" * ZAP * * ZAP * * ZAP * it hurts, her horn is shining in a furious purple aura, I can feel it, uncontrollable magic discharges running through my body, a year ago that would be enough to end me, but now ?! Now it just gives me more desire to continue! With every shock I feel a screaming pain, but there is something that leaves everything out, and that is the hate, the hate that I have for her! Just today, just today my hatred for her has to overcome my fear, and with each shock I feel it rising, let's end this, a warning, I try to cut her, she throws herself back... So much hate. .. So much pain to... Wait... She... SHE IS BLEEDING! I can see! Under her lip! A little cut! She... My god she can be killed! My god, I've never felt such an adrenaline rush.
I run towards her "M-Mister Spencer stop!" what she said? I don’t know, that symbol on my chest keeps on shining, go on!
I caught! I can see! I stuck the knife in her chest, it wasn't too deep but it was enough to... My god it was enough to make her scream!!!
"S-Spencer! Stop! Monster! Guards!"
Her horn... She'll do something, the shocks have stopped, the floor! She wants to run away! Not while I breathe! I run towards her, I can already see her disappearing, but before, before she disappeared, I held her horn.
I feel my body levitate, everything around me is... Colorful... I feel calm... What is it? It's a trick! I will not stop! I have to continue!
* thump *
I fall, I am in a... Kitchen... I rise, she is staring at me, tears in her eyes, a hole in the chest and a kitchen knife pointed at me, "stay away, monster!" I smiled, look to the side and there was a knife holder, full of knives, I take some.
"Let's play a game princess, it's called, put the knife on the pony."
She is shaking! This is amazing! That feeling! The adrenaline! She's crying! My god this is amazing! She levitates a few more knives behind her.
"D-Damian, g-get away! I-I have magic! I can use a-all the knives at o-once! You can't win!"
I laughed, I laughed out loud as I started walking towards her.
"D-Damian! Stop!"
"Make me, I've been waiting for this for a long time, loooong tiiiiiiime."
She is terrified! This is divine! Time to play, I have four knives, I drop two, I can see her gaze, following the knife, afraid of something unexpected happening, what a pity, she took her eyes off me.
I run towards her, when she realizes she lets out a scream! Another! And throws the knives at me, I feel four of them hitting me, the cold touch of a knife, that's just... Cheers me up! I smiled even more! I stop, I'm just a few centimeters away from her, I feel a hot liquid running down my body, I can even feel her breath, she is terrified!
"Looks * laughs * looks like I won!"
* BOOOM *
I never saw a magic missile, but that was one, I flew back a few meters, she... She is preparing another teleport! No, no!!! I took a small lamp on my side and threw it... It was... Beautiful! When it broke and the oil fell on her body! It was burning all over her back! The flames were eating her! It was incredible.
"H-Help! HELP! Damian help! That hurt!" hurt? HURT?!?!?!
"No princess, I haven't even started yet." she is trying to stop the flames, it’s comical, why? I don't know but it is, when I find myself I'm only a few feet away from her, her eyes widened, I think she didn't see me coming, I know what she's going to do, and before she can do I drop a knife and hold her horn with my left hand, and the other? I put a knife in her throat! I feel a jet of blood flying in my face... That was... Incredible! She is struggling, blood coming out of her mouth, I take a knife from my chest and stab her, I repeat this two more times, she is shaking all over! She is really a god! So tough! That's nice! I grab the last knife, I think it's over Spar --- no, her name is Twilight! I stab her, Twilight, I stab her Twilight! I stab her "Twilight! Twilight! Twilight! Twilight! Twilight! Twilight! TWILIGHT! TWILIGHT! TWILIGHT! TWILIGHT!" I continue in that frenzy, stabbing her while I repeat her name, this process repeat for a few minutes.
When I finish the princess of friendship is unrecognizable, I smiled, I... I killed someone... My god... That was amazing! no ... she is not someone ... she is an animal, a poney! Adrenaline flowing through my body! I look at my chest, my clothes are all red and with four tears, no holes, I think your spell really worked.
I take the knife and cuts her horn, an orange liquid coming out of the stump, I smile as I see her corpse burning... "Ahah"... "Ahahahah"... "AhahahahahhahaAHAHAHAH" I won! I killed a god! I feel my legs fail, my whole body hurts, even though her spell heals the stab wounds, it still hurts, but it was so good... I... They... I swear... I swear I'll kill them... Yes... It'll be amazing! Each one of them! , I will not let any of them escape!
"Honey, I think there's something down there!"
"I heard our daughter! She must be in trouble, prepare one spell to call the guards, I will see what is!"
I smiled and took one of the knives that were stuck in the body of this... This... Demon with wings, I think it's time to start hunting them.
Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
Memories of the past: Nightmare.
Author's Note
Bonus chapter! (in fact it is because if it is two small chapters and a large one I will not be able to post all the small ones before the story ends)
Memories of the past: Nightmare.
It was a sunny day, a verdant pasture stretched as far as the eyes could follow, and near a single tree there were two figures, I walk slowly towards them, were black, completely black, however, when I was a few meters away I see! I saw the darkness disappear and reveal my family! Maria! Mia! Tears formed immediately... They were there! I began to walk towards them, feeling my body become heavy, my heart was beating insanely, they were there! I try to wipe the rivers of tears in my eyes with my hands, but it's useless, but who cares? Who cares if someone sees me crying? "Darling! It's me!" she seems to have woken up a short time ago, yawning and wiping her eyes, but when she heard my voice she rejoiced! A smile, that smile, the smile that stole my heart! It was her! So she saw me... I never heard her scream like that, she took Mia in her lap and ran... My Maria ran! There was something behind me! I turn, hate is already invading my heart! I take two horns in my vest and prepare to find... Nothing, there was nothing, just the infinite pasture, nothing...
"Maria! Everything is fine!" I run towards her, "stop Maria! I will protect you!" I'm approaching, "Maria don't run! What did you see ?! Where's the monster !?" I got her! I hold her arm taking care not to hurt Mia, "everything is fine!"
Her eyes... The fear, I've never seen her show that look... It looked like she was looking at a monster... A monster... "H-h- help! Damian! HELP DAMIAN!"
"Maria... It's me..." she wouldn't listen, just struggled and tried to let go of her arm, while Mia... While Mia cried wildly... I... I let go of her arm, she falls to the ground doing everything possible to protect Mia...
"H-h-help! Damian help!" is Me Maria... She just screams for my name as she runs away... Maria...
Then I hear a thunderous sound behind me, like thunder, I turn to see a mirror... And what I see... A tall being... Manic and lifeless eyes... Long claws... A giganticly large and black hair as the purest coal... Rags being worn as clothes... The mouth... Big and grotesque, very sharp teeth come out of it... Blood... Blood wrapped around the body... In the claws, in the jaw, this pale being was almost completely red because of the blood, around him were countless corpses... Many... Ponies... Gryphons... Dragons... So many bodies... It's me. This monster is me... This hideous creature...
Tears begin to form in my eyes, no more tears of joy... Tears of sadness, *sniff* not fear or anger, sadness... "Maria!" extends my hand, "please Maria come back!" she does not hear, just runs, runs away ... *sniff* "Maria... Don't leave me... Please... Maria..." then I feel, two wings curling around me, two purple wings...
"Don't worry Damian... Now you're with me, let's put a smile on this face!"
"Maria... Don't abandon me..."
Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
An alicorn, the giant and the dragon
Their faces are priceless, I told this story to just another pony, it was for Bloody Novel, I was a little drunk, she was always serious, hardly laughed or expressed herself, but she cried a lot, I still don't understand why, but these ponies are repeating her feat, Fluttershy is crying wildly while trying to hide her face with her hooves and apologizes for some reason, Shining Sparkle is with tears coming out of her eyes, a stare at me, I think she went into shock, Luna almost cried in the middle of the story, now she has a look of... Anger? I think someone got a problem, and... And Miranda... I never saw her like that, she always has a cute smile or a sulky look... Maybe... Maybe the day her mother died... She is crying, "look Miranda I ---"
If I hadn't lifted my arms, she would have squeezed me alive, god how strong she is, "EXCUSE DAD! I DIDN'T KNOW, I --"
"It's alright daughter," I start running my fingers through her head, "it's... It's past."
"I-I don't... My master... By Faust Damian."
Miranda, Miranda was going to do something that was not going to end well, I know that look, the look she uses when going to kill someone, and the look she was giving Shining Sparkle was that look. "It's not her fault Miranda, remember? It wasn't her; it wasn't their fault."
"HOW NOT?! THEY TORTURED YOU!"
Yes... I believed it too, it took me a long time to realize the truth, it was only after Miranda's mother died that I realized.
"Miranda... Look, I know you're angry, that you think it's their fault, but it's not, I like to lie to myself too, but I know it's not."
"BUT THEY-"
"Only some of them, the culprits died, remember when you were a child and ask why they called me a monster? That is true."
"BUT-"
"You said it yourself, on the day that I gave the newborns a date to be safe, the Crystal Empire, I blew it up... Do you think it was their fault? Ponyville, they did nothing... All cities of Equestria? They didn't even know I existed, all the foals I set on fire... All... Miranda, I'm a monster, and that's not a matter of perspective, it's a fact. " I smiled as I wiped away her tears, "Are you happy now princess? Now you know my story."
"D-Damian, I had no idea."
"Nobody ever has."
"I'm sorry, Damian! I didn't mean to, I'm just, I'm sorry!"
Fluttershy... She was one of the ones that made me realize that, what I was doing was wrong, but when I realized, it was too late
"It's okay Fluttershy, you just asked a question."
"No! What they did was wrong! They had no right!"
"Damian... Guards! Take them to their room and heed their request."
"Princess?"
"And call my sister, Damian, did you say you were named five correct?"
"Do you want to see the scar?"
"No, thanks for the collaboration... And that Faust, Markal, Reficul, Liria and Samol have pity on your soul."
I laughed, "sorry princess, I'm an atheist."
She waves as she leaves the room, I think it's time to leave, Miranda doesn't let go of me for a second, it's hard to walk with her holding me, but what can I do? I will not spoil her moment.
"D-Damian! I-I will do my best to help you! I have..."
"Don't judge yourself by your master's mistakes, you have the opportunity to be better than her," I look at Miranda and kiss her head "you have this opportunity..."
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
By Celestia how I could do that! I am a horrible pony! I thought he... I want to hide with shame! How could I be so blind! Obviously there was something behind it... But what he went through was so...
"Are you okay Fluttershy?"
"No..."
"Me too, I mean, did I do all that? It was all so... Wrong."
I'm already crying again, how can I be crying? He was the one who went through all that... I'm so... Pathetic.
"Hey girls, what happened? Flutter, why are you crying? Was that monkey? I will got him!"
"No Rainbow, it's just... It's complicated."
"Come on girls, are the others in the waiting room?
"Yes, but Pinkie is gone, I think it was attacking the royal kitchen again."
"It's good that she doesn't disappear much, she owes me a few bit's, he he, right, Fluttershy?"
"Yea..."
How should I proceed in our next meeting? He is scared, he doesn't like the situation, he was hurt to the limit, if his species lives in couples, and he already has a special pony, this can be stress for being away from her for so long and... How am I going to help with that? Think Fluttershy think.
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
Nothing is better than enjoying the view of Canterlot while drinking a cup of tea, it is perfect, but even so, something seemed wrong, something was in the air, something is about to happen... Something big, I turn around, there is one of them.
"SISTER! WHY DID YOU NOT ANSWER MY CALL!"
"Look the tone Luna, sorry, I was too busy... Enjoying this view, why don't you come see this with me?"
"Spare me sister, I called you for a serious reason."
This... This is strange, Luna never gets so, agitated, what happened at that interrogation?
"Say what ails your heart, * laughs * did not get the rematch?"
She blushes slightly "for your information, yes I did, but it doesn't matter, Damian told me something, something I had forgotten to ask since I came back from the moon."
"And what would that be? Your real bank account?" I laughed as I take a sip of tea.
"How many have suffered the mark of the five beings since I was banned?"
Many things are considered inappropriate for a princess, spitting tea is one of them, but I couldn't help myself, what she said?
"Sorry Luna, I don't understand what you mean? The mark of the five beings, that forbidden spell?"
"That's right, I want to know how many times it has been used since I left the post of co-governor of Equestria, and don't lie to me."
Damn it, I knew this human was a problem, sigh, I was never able to lie to Luna, she always finds out sometime.
"Luna... This is not the best time to talk about it."
"There is no good time to talk about this subject, now answer."
"three times..."
"Three? It took us almost five hundred years to find such a vile being to apply this spell, and in a thousand years you find three!"
"It was dark years after your banishment Luna, I was alone, I... I'm not proud of those days, but what happened? What made you ask that?"
"Damian, he, he was marked by the spell."
"What ?! What number?"
"Five."
"This... This is problematic, Luna, are you feeling? The days are darker, the nights are colder, Discord doesn't even come to bother us anymore, he just stays on that damn continent."
"Yes, I already called him, dark days are coming Celestia, and we have to choose our movements wisely."
"And what do you think would be a good move?"
"Help Damian, and pray that he helps us."
"You... He has nightmares, I think it would be a good start."
"I understand."
Depending on him, a killer of gods, he... It just has everything necessary to go wrong, I sigh as I drink my tea again, Grandma, give me strength during these days.
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
Miranda is sleeping in bed, the clothes are a little big, something tells me they are for minotaur's, but it is better than sleeping with wet clothes, I walk to the window and sit on it, it is a beautiful moon, smiled as I lifted the hand, I feel the necklace glowing, it's true, I still have it, "Speeencer!" and she is still here, I look down, near the garden there is a purple silhouette, my heart is racing, she cannot touch me! She can't touch me anymore! She... She "SPEEEECER!" she disappeared, she is no longer there... why I feel a hot breath on my neck? god I will not turn around, "Spenceeeer..." calm down she is not behind me... She cannot be! "Let's play a game Mr. Spencer, it's called, suicide, you are very experienced in this game, you tried more than four times and failed, I think if you throw yourself from the tower now, you can win!" I turn around, there she is, that monster, a malnourished alicorn, the ribs already visible, lifeless eyes, just two purple dots... And the smile.
"Hello Spencer," she puts one of her hooves on my left shoulder, why can't I move! "Spencer, that hurt, but if you do me a favor, maybe we'll leave you alone."
"What?" Why I'm talking to a hallucination? Jesus She looks so real!
"Throw yourself from the tower, Damian, you have to die Damian, because if you don't die, this world dies, just like mine," her smile grows "and you know why? Do you want to know why? "
"W-why?"
"Throw yourself, and I'll tell you."
I look down, it is a long fall, easily bigger than the tower of the sister's castle... I look at she, she is almost real, her breath, reach out my hand and... And I touch it! She is real! I feel my balance wobbling, there is only one place to go, out of this tower! I feel my body jumping out of the tower, she starts laughing in a maniacal tone, stop! STOP! Put my arms around my ears, STOP!
* thump *
What? I rise, I... Am I in the tower?
"Damian? What are you doing? It's already night, go to sleep..."
Miranda! I know she has a problem with personal space, but fuck it, when I find myself, I'm already hugging her, tears are already forming in my eyes, "what happened? She... Did she appear?" I nod, Jesus how humiliating this is, she starts running her fingers through my head.
"Thank you."
"I'm always here, dad."
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
I am on a plain, I look around, nothing, just a green field, a green field that extends as far as the eye can see.
I start walking, I know what will happen, this nightmare...
* BOOM *
The ground is shaking! It's started! I start to run, I can feel the ground under my feet shaking, don't look back, don't look back, don't look back, "DAMIAAAAAAAAAAN!"
Jesus, I looked! There, coming out of a crack in the plain is a gigantic being, a... Another monster, a being composed of bodies, bodies of ponies, griffins, dragons, everything I have already killed is there!
"YOU HAVE TO DIE DAMIAAAAAAAN !!!" I put my arms around my ears and start running faster.
"STOP!"
The ground is falling apart, every second the distance between us decreases, it is coming! I start to touch my coat, nothing, no horn, damn it, "DAMIAAAAAAAN" is getting louder, I can already see the shadow of this thing covering me! He will catch me! He goes!
"DAMIAN! DO NOT FEAR! IT IS JUST A DREAM!"
That was... Luna! Impossible! I killed her! She cannot come to haunt me anymore! Look up, there she is! she is, different, she... She is not attacking me, she is attacking the creature!
"LUNA RUN IS IMPOSSIBLE TO KILL THIS CREATURE!"
"I AM THE PRINCESS OF DREAMS, IF I CANNOT HANDLE A NIGHTMARE, I THINK I SHOULD RETIRE THE CROWN!"
She will die! We're going to die! You can't kill this thing, Miranda and I tried, but it always wins, always.
The monster stopped following me, he is focused on Luna, trying to catch the alicorn with his colossal hands, my god he will catch her! What do I do! I don't want this thing to catch me!
"DAMIAN! YOU HAVE TO FIGHT, YOU CONTROL THE NIGHTMARE, YOU ARE STRONGER THAN IT!"
I... I will die if I face this thing, but, perhaps, this is my dream, I look to the side, the sword of Celestia is hovering a few centimeters from me and in my coat is the horn of Luna and Celestia , come on... Let's try it again, again, I take the two horns, with Luna's I levitate Celestia's sword and start running towards the creature, what the fuck am I doing? This is useless!
I'm just a few inches from the monster, he's colossal, maybe as big as Canterlot Mountain, I take a deep breath and I point the sword at the monster, I take Celestia's horn and point it at him too... Burn.
A flare of gigantic flames come out of the sword and the horn, incinerating the entire lower part of the creature, "THAT'S IT DAMIAN! FIGHT, LET'S END THIS NIGHTMARE!"
For some reason, I let myself believe, my heart starts to beat faster! I hold Celestia's sword and use the Luna horn to levitate, I know where this thing's weak point is, Miranda and I almost won a few times, the head.
He tries to catch me a few times, but he's more focused on Luna and her magic missiles, the head, formed by my main targets, Celestia, Luna, are all here, and there, in the center of the head is the creature's weakness, taking advantage that the monster was looking up in search of Luna I start to walk in his face, there... There is the weakness of this thing!
I arrived, there it is... Fluttershy... Serene, calm, a small smile on her face, and underneath it... Underneath it is what keeps this thing alive, I know it, I can feel it, I take the sword and I lift her up, there is little to go, so little "DAMIAN !!! WHY DAMIAN! I WANTED TO HELP YOU DAMIAN !!!"
NO! I can't kill her, even with a blindfold on, I know she's looking at me, I can't attack her... I... The sword falls from my hands, "sorry Fluttershy," she smiles.
"DAMIAN BE CAREFUL!"
The creature’s face is falling apart, the bodies are making way as I start to sink, it’s eating me, again.
Hooves, claws and hands are holding me, they are doing everything to sink me, Fluttershy rises and starts looking at me, sorry, "DAMIAN!" I look up, Luna was caught by one of my hands, I feel sorry for her, the hands of this monster are basically hungry mouths.
They’re hitting me, I feel claws scratching me, I feel hooves kicking me, I don’t see anything, nothing but bodies, so I fell.
Hollow? Is the creature hollow? "Damian..." that voice... I trembled all over, it can't be! I stand up and look at the figure in front of me.
It cannot be, I approach, and I place my hands on the figure's shoulders, it cannot be.
It's her... Miranda, black and lifeless eyes, with a black liquid making her mouth and eyes, blood covering her whole body, my god, my princess...
"You killed me Damian."
"No, I nev---"
"YOU KILLED ME DAMIAN!"
"Dear, it's me! I n---"
"IT IS YOUR BLAME THAT I AM DEAD!"
I look up, a gigantic blue-colored dragon looks at me, a four written on her chest, it's her... Miranda's mother... The dragon takes a deep breath and unleashes a blast of flame at me.
"MIRANDA!"
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
"MIRANDA!"
"Hmm? What was father?"
She was here! Alive! My girl, I hug her, "I won't let anyone touch you ok? I'll protect you."
"O-ok, me, thanks."
She's here, safe, she's safe...
"Dad, who's gone now?"
"The giant."
"I know, you tried to face him again, didn't you?"
"Yea..."
She sighs, "you know you can't win, none of them," she looks at the window, I follow her gaze and see the moon, "tell me, tell me a story, tell that time when you and Uncle Rafael fought. "
I laugh a little, she, she knows me well, I wipe the tears from my eyes and sigh, "well, it all started when he touched my wife's butt-"
Author's Note
next memory of the past:
Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
Memories of the past: The end of chaos
THERE HE IS! Now i have to take it easy, man what a strange situation, on the last remaining hill in ponyville, there is the god of chaos, my biggest opponent! Our struggles were memorable! There was a time that he hunted me through the forest in a TANK! A fucking TANK! THAT SHOOTS GUM! That was a strange day, there was another time, that he made several traps, one stranger than the other, there was one that I almost fell into, don't judge me! That box of cigarettes looked legitimate, it's not like I fell into a well with chocolate inside ...
What will he do? will he hunt me on top of a dinopony? will he become several miniatures of him and try to arrest me? god am i excited? I look like a child going to a toy store!
Ok Damian, now, he is distracted, there is not a drop of chaos magic flowing from him, so he is ... Killable? I hope so, because otherwise it will end up so wrong.
I walk a few more meters, how I managed to get close to him so much without him noticing me? Maybe it's another trap, but the sky is clear, the sun is bright, the weather is perfect ... For ... Something, I don't know why I'm thinking about these things! Focus Damian focus! Finish him off, then the Crystal Empire! So soon, I can't hesitate, not now, not after what I've been through.
That's it, my sword, black with red details that I took from Luna's personal arsenal in Canterlot, I'm just a few inches from him, with a swing of the sword and it's over ... But why, I can't swing the sword? Why?
"You know, it wasn't supposed to end like this, it wasn't supposed to ... Happen everything ... Like this."
"What?"
"Damian ... We have a problem ... Do you know Pinkie? Didn't she tell you?"
"I don't know what you are talking about?" why am i talking to him? Why? I'am should be cutting him! HE DON'T HAVE ONE DROP OF MANA FLOWING!
"Damian ... I ... I didn't know, I swear ... For, I don't know? Jeova? I didn't know what Twilight was doing ..."
"And does it matter?"
"Matters to you ..."
He is ... Sentimental, wait, his hands ... A white feather and a yellow feather, they are the feathers of ...
"You know ... I ... I was going to fix everything, I was going, I swear, but then you killed her ..." he drops the yellow feather, and she flies slightly away, until she is out of sight, "she was ... Was ... Very important ..." Fluttershy ... "so you killed her ..." And there goes the white feather, also flying with phenomenal delicacy, "and she ... She ... * sniff * I can't bring her back ... "Celestia ...
"Discord ... I ..."
"Finish this champion, you can even up some levels, he he ..."
My god i'm hesitating, why! he ... he just ... saved my life ... he cheered me up ... he told jokes and he even rained chocolate on my birthday, Jesus what am i doing!
"What was champion? do you want help?"
"Discord ... I can't."
"But you must, you must become strong Damian, stronger, the strongest."
"You helped me," damn I feel tears forming in my eyes! "it would be, I can't!"
He looks at me, he's a nice guy, playful, fun, creative and has always been there to help me, even trying to capture me, like Rafael, I can't, when I look at him I see my brother, I. ..
I feel the sword getting heavy! what ... my god it's getting insanely heavy! and I, I can’t deflect the edge of the blade with his neck!
"Do it, you don't have to worry, I ..." * laughs * "I'll be fine."
My god the sword! why! I do not want! I want, "Discord ..." he looks at me again, those chaotic and different eyes, they presented only calm, acceptance and peace, he, he really wants this ...
"Discord ... you coward."
He laughs and sighs in defeat, "I'm Damian, I'm scared of the storm, I can't stop that." he is, he is calm, no jokes, no prankes, "sorry, but remember, do what i say, not what i do. "he gives a huge smile as he looks at the horizon.
"I ... Discord ..."
"Hmmm?"
"Goodbye ... And ... Thanks for that ... And for putting a smile on my face ..."
"You needed more than me ..."
Then will it be like this? my great battle against the strongest ... the sword is verging on the humanly possible to hold, I stop with the resistance, the sword begins to fall ... and ...
* BOOM *
A wave of mana of unimaginable proportions came from his body, dust came from everywhere, he, of course! it was a trick! a joke! he, he's kidding!
The dust is disappearing, I raise the sword and prepare to pull Celestia's horn! a smile of anxiety and expectation invades me, it's now!
Why ... why is there blood on the sword? the dust is gone, and there, fallen on the ground is the lord of chaos ...
It's done. Why... It should be my biggest battle! But it was so... God what i done...
Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
Memories of the past: Polishing a diamond
Her screams are music, I would say, it's a canary, I prepare another knife, the stove may not be the best place to heat a knife, but it does the job well, I turn around and enjoy the view, stuck in a chair is a white unicorn with a purple mane that was once 'pretty' is now all messed up, her hoof is ... Well, skinless, Sparkle you bitch, now I know why you did that! The screams are divine!
"D-Damian, p-p-please stop!"
"Hmmm let me see," I walk towards her, playing with the glowing knife, her look! The fear! The doubt! The horror! It's amazing!
"You know Rarity, you were very impolite closing the door in my face, where's the generosity?"
"S-sorry !!! Please stop!"
She is sobbing! She is already at that level!
I smiled at her, "ahmmmmmm ..." I stabbed her 'good' hoof "no!"
The Scream! It's amazing! I think half the city must have woken up already, I look at the door, several mannequins and furniture are covering it, the same is repeated for the windows.
"Wow, how you make noise, you will wake the children up!"
She realized! I know that her sister is here, she tried to say that she was alone to help her sister, but I know that she is up there, now she knows that I know.
"P-please! Leave my sister out of this!"
"I don't know ... I think I'll take a look at it."
I turn around and start walking towards the stairs, I can hear her screaming and struggling in the chair, useless, I nailed you well in this chair.
"SWEEATIE!" I start to sing her name as I go up the stairs, there she is, in the hall, huddled with hooves around her head, and crying, how cute, and me thinking we were going to play the game of cat and mouse.
She is so focused on isolating herself from the world and her sister's screams that she didn't even notice my presence until I caught her by the neck, ahhh, the look of terror in her eyes, the foals are the best, it's amazing how they can be scared easy, and this one already pissed, pathetic ...
When Rarity saw me coming down the stairs with her sister I think she went crazy, started struggling and asking for help in a different tone, it was so painful to hear her ears that the volume was so loud, "honey, I'll let you go a little , if you move a muscle I’ll open it in two and give it to your sister to eat, understand? " She didn't answer, she didn't move, she just looked at me, her lips trembling in absolute dread, incredible!
I let her go and start walking towards Rarity, grab a knife from my jacket, I look back, standing in the same place, good, "Damian please! Don't d--"
"Shhhhhhhh, calm Rarity, you make a lot of noise." I take her snout and with one hand I open it and with the other I stick the knife in her mouth, her look, the convulsions, perfect, I look back again, still there.
Rarity is trying to say something, god this mare doesn't shut up even when it has a knife in her mouth, I start to cut, blood already flowing out of her lips "if you move less it will be quick ... Keep on struggling!"
It's amazing how she futilely tries to take the knife out of her mouth, her eyes! They are almost disappearing while looking up in pain! She feels! She knows what pain is, good.
Done, I take the knife out of her mouth, I think I cut it too much, her jaw looks like it's going to fall, I must have cut some muscle, because she doesn't even close her mouth anymore, just stays there, choking on her own blood while part of her tongue is slowly coming out of her mouth, god how difficult it was to cut that tongue, Sparkle made it look easy.
I turn to the main course, and Rarity seems to notice, I think there is still some of it, I can hear some moans, "what a pity, dear, I can't understand you, speak well."
I take her sister by the neck, and walk towards the kitchen, two knives are in the oven, no, I think I'll be more creative, I turn on the rest of the stove, "Sweetie, let's play a game, I'll try to cook you, if you escape you win! " Her eyes! The realization!
* thump *
Nothing better than the sound of a foal hitting a lit stove, she starts to struggle, four flames burning her and I try to hold her in place.
Hmmmmm, the screams of pain and anguish, for each scream that Sweetie lets out, Rarity lets out a bigger one, I think there is still something from that mare.
Well, she stopped moving, blood and drool coming out of her mouth, when I remove her from the stove, I can clearly see the four spots where the stove burned, even one of the holes is still on fire!
I throw it on the floor, they lose their grace when they stop screaming, I take Rarity's horn and keep it in my coat, plus a souvenir for the collection, I take a lamp and a wet cloth, I will leave those knives here, I already took a lot .
When Rarity saw me appear alone, she knew what had happened, fucking Twilight! Thanks for the pills! I approach, her makeup is all smudged, I throw the wet cloth over her left eye "You should take care of your appearance dear! I think it's time to clean your skin." I throw the lamp at her, the flames, the screams, look! One of the nails must have given in because she released one of the hooves! She is trying to put out the flames! That futile, "it's oil dear, not even water would save you now."
There is nothing better than seeing their eyes slowly go lifeless, see how slowly the soul leaves their body, it’s done, she died, it lasted a long time, it’s over, it’s missing two, I take the furniture out of the door and open it , I think the whole city is here, but of course not my two other targets, no guard yet, good, "BUU" is amazing how they run, I think the screams, the smoke coming out of the house and the blood on my clothes were the enough to scare them, let me see ... I think I'm going after the balloons now
Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
I wake up and look at the ceiling, well, it's not gray, I try to get up but I realize that there's something holding me, I look to the side and there's the culprit, Miranda is sleeping while hugging me, I sigh defeated while I lie down again, yeah, I will stay here for a while.
The window shows a sun that is rising, yeah, I think I'll paint the ceiling beige, yes, beige is a beautiful color.
* toc toc *
But it is clear that my thoughts will be interconnected, who will be? Be patient, Damian, you are trapped, without magic and horns, god how i miss being an emperor, at least they wouldn't wake me up anytime soon.
* TOC TOC *
Calm down, breathe, you are starting over, you have to be patient with them, they are dumb animals that do not understand what privacy is since they are all naked!
"You may come in."
The door opens slowly, and there is Shining Sparkle, he stares at us for a few seconds and blushes, god those ponies.
"I-did I hinder anything?"
"Yes, isn't it obvious?"
She blushes insanely as she hides her face behind a clipboard, "I-I-I-I-I-I-I!"
She is so easy to manipulate, I let out a little laugh, "I was asleep, isn't that obvious? What did you think?"
"I-I-I-I," she is stuttering, my god she is hilarious, ok, it's official, I like her.
"Well, if you're not going to help me, you can leave."
"To help?"
I point to Miranda as I try to get out of her embrace, "so sherlock, what will it be? Will you help or will you leave me alone?"
"I, ahmm, can Miranda wake up?"
For real? Wake her up? Good luck there miss, let's see, beige right? Yes, beige, it would be perfect.
"Damian, I, the breakfast is ready."
The breakfast? I kick Miranda to the side, and I rise, I hear her cursing and threatening me.
"Damian when I get my hands on you ---"
"Breakfast is ready!"
I feel a pillow being thrown in my face, normally it wouldn't hurt, but my god, she has a strong arm, she managed to knock me down with just a pillow!
"It's good to have something good, if not, I'll break your other rib!"
I burst out laughing, my god, how long have I not laughed like that? Well, I think it's better to eat then, what will it be? Maybe a stea--
"Shining, what about food?"
"Ahmm, some sweets and cereal, we have bread too."
Noooooo! There is no meat here! My god ... How am i going to survive?
"Wouldn't you have something with more ... Protein?"
"We have fish." fish, it's always fish, well, I think ...
"MIRANDA !!!"
"Hmm?"
"How's the freezer !?"
It seems that she noticed, her look was grumpy and tired for an almost miraculous accomplishment! "Full!"
I rise, ok, we need the Crystal Heart for yesterday, seriously, I don't know how long I can take without meat, real meat!
"Freezer? What are you talking about?"
"Nothing, let's go at once, I'm hungry."
We've been walking for a while now, each corridor seems to be bigger than the other, I don't like corridors that long, and the worst, the stained glass windows, they ... They seem to be looking at me, they seem to be laughing at me, I hate stained glass.
"What is it, Damian? You look worried."
"I don't like stained glass, that's all."
"The big baby there is terrified of stained glass, that's all!"
"Stained glass? What a curious fear."
"Miss, I have many curious fears, but do you know what I don't have?"
"What?"
"Patience, now talk less, look, why don't you teleport us there? My god this castle looks like a maze!"
"I thought you were an atheist?"
"Don't run away from the conversation!"
"I can't, necklace, remember?"
Yes, damn necklaces! Seriously, they are bothering me, and Miranda is starting to get, I don't know, weird, she would normally throw me out the window or break my arm, but she just threw a pillow, she said she was very tired, this is strange, very tired to hit me?
"Hey Miranda, how are you? Didn't you get a lot of beauty sleep?"
"Ha ha ... If you didn't have panic attacks all night I could sleep."
I blush slightly, how dare she! Well, I will not judge, my nightmares are getting more intense, again, will the Chrysalis of this universe also do therapy? * laughs * therapy ...
"We arrived! Hey, ahm, Damian, take it easy ok?"
"OK..."
It was a large, relatively beautiful door with some gold trim, nothing much in relation to what was in my world, but when she opened the door, I saw, a gigantic dining table, there were some iconic figures on the table, the princesses obviously, Cadence wasn’t there, Sparkle wasn’t there either, apart from them, there were some nobles, it smells like deja vu.
"Damian, I'm glad you joined us, I thought you wouldn't come."
Celestia, that maternal smile of yours, if you didn't hate me I would almost say that you are being sincere, do what, I smiled back as I walk to the table, and the place on Luna's side is vacant, time to have fun.
When I was almost arriving at the place I see a certain nobleman, with a golden mane and a small black suit, the infamous Prince Blueblood, this will be interesting.
"Aunt, why is this ... This prisoner here! He should be in prison!"
I bend slightly, at a very specific angle, I fold my arm and bow slightly to him.
"Sorry, prince, I didn't want to disturb you."
"Humpf, at least he has manners, well, I think we can tolerate someone with manners of that level."
He is easy to flatter, easy to manipulate, and a huge problem if irritated, do not let the appearance and manners ... 'snobbish' deceive you, he was one of the most difficult fights I had and he should not be treated like a child, even if he sometimes acts like one.
"Thank your highness."
The looks of the princesses and, well, minor nobles were laughable, I don't think they expected that, I look at Miranda, she just shrugs, well, as long as everything is normal.
I sit in the chair, it’s a little small, pony chairs, it’s always been a problem, well, if that’s what the house offers.
Well, besides the sweets the table is full of cereals like rice and grains like wheat and ... I think that is hay? I think so, besides the cereals we have the breads, I think I'll go with them, I haven't eaten in a while, I hope it continues with the same taste.
When I take it and bite it I can attest, it's good, it's still good, ok, let's break the ice.
"So Luna, how was the night?"
"You are sick."
"Sorry, I did not understand."
"That thing had mouths in its hands, that hurt."
"What? She was taken by the giant's hand? My god it must have been funny to see her face when she realized."
"It wasn't funny! That was awful!"
"I know, that shit got me twice already."
"Ok Miranda, no crying ok? You don't feel anything, different from me! Damn it hurts."
"I believe that these matters do not fit the situation, please, let's enjoy this meal."
Yes, Celestia, always spoiling the fun, well, "let's enjoy the meal the best we can then," Miranda gives me a strange look as she moves the bread, she doesn't like grains and derivatives.
Time went normal, if normal is a being that they never seen, with a restriction necklace of the highest level eating next to nobles and princesses, Miranda is trying to pull out a yolk that is stuck in her chair to eat, good girl!
"Well, the food was excellent, aunt, my lengths for the boss."
As the prince rose and the other nobles followed suit, now there was only me, Miranda, Shining and the princesses in the room, not to mention the guards at the doors, of course.
"I will say Damian, I expected many things from you, now you bow with that precision to my nephew was something monumental!"
"Don't get used princess, he was a special case, don't expect me to bow to you."
I finished my breads, I think now I just have to wait for the fish and I can start the day.
"I did it!"
"I, Miranda, you can not eat the furniture!"
The look Miranda gave Sparkle was phenomenal! Have they found time to fight? Ahh what a pride of my girl!
"Well, give me some gems! This food here is horse food! I'm a dragon! For god's sake be patient!"
"It caught my attention, what do you eat? I disbelieve that one, 'dragon' managed to reach that size by eating only gems and fish."
Oops, is it time to talk about it? Man, imagine their faces when they know that I ... I ... Man, I was boasting about it, now, in this world, it seems ... I don't know ... Strange.
"We got our way."
"Hm?"
"Forget it, well, Luna, what will it be?"
"Hi? What do you want now?"
"You only came into my dreams yesterday, why?"
"You are strange, I cannot force a dream on you, and that was the only time I had time for this."
I know, you can't force a dream, right? Ok, i will pretend i believe, but i think now is the time to get the spoils and not intrigues, i extend my hand to Luna and wait.
She looks confused, don't play dumb Luna "what does that mean?"
"The crown, don't you remember? You lost to a nightmare, bet the crown and lost."
"What? Princess Luna lost to a nightmare ?! Impossible!"
"Yes, she lost and owes me her crown."
"I don't remember betting with you, but if you really want to adorn yourself with my crown, I won't judge you, it's really a beautiful piece."
She levitates the crown and puts it in my hand, well, she has a word, God how pathetic is she, did she really give me the crown? I'm already enjoying this universe, and I thinked it would suck.
I take the gem from the crown and throw it to Miranda, she devours the stone in an instant.
"T-that stone was a very powerful crystal! How can you eat it like that!"
"I love magic stones, especially powerful ones."
"Well, it would be incredible to continue this discussion, but my sister and I have some business with the nobles."
Luna was furious, you can see in her eyes, "rematch, in two days after I get the Crystal Heart, what do you think?" her look was, 'I'm going to kill you' then it become 'I love you' in a moment.
"Well, I'll see what I can do to help you."
"And the necklace has to come off, of course, it wouldn't be a fair fight if I were limited by that."
"Well, in due time Damian, besides, you don't need magic to face me, it will be a duel, not a magic fight."
"What is it? Afraid to face a humble wizard in a duel? You are an alicorn."
She laughs, as she gets up and leaves the room with Princess Celestia, she still has a certain sense of humor, but I felt a bit of concern in her voice, which will be next.
"Damian, I so bored, what do we do now, Sparkle?"
She stuffs some muffins in her mouth while wiping her lips with a napkin "well, if you finished eating I have some news, we also have to see my friends."
Friends? * laughs * maybe they are the next bearers of the elements? It would be funny, "of course, let's see these friends of yours, come on Miranda, lift this fat ass and let's go." Miranda was trying to get other gems out of the chairs, how cute, at the age of seven and she is already a little thief, what a pride.
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
I sigh, today will be a long day, nobles, my nephew wants to talk to me and now I have to find a new crown for Luna, for Faust, it brings me so many memories, and of course, there are the ambassadors, I have to cool my head, griffins can be inflexible, only dragons are harderheaded than they are.
"Luna, I don't think it's wise to take his necklace off yet."
"I agree, my heart is full of doubt and fear, but the necklace will come out, sister, at one time or another."
"I hope you know what you're doing, Discord hasn't arrived yet, I would wait for him to do that."
"His arrival won't change anything, yuor former student has a plan that involves getting him out of Canterlot.
"Don't tell me she plans to ---"
"Yes, that's exactly it."
By Faust, only that mare really thinks about something like that.
"It's just Twilight to even think of something like that."
"Aren't you going to stop her?"
Should I? Twilight is becoming an exemplary princess, when she wanted to challenge me I saw that I did a good job taught her, I just hope she knows what she is doing.
"I don't know, I believe she knows what she does, but Luna," I look at her, "do you think he is in a state of being free? Without vigilance or supervision?"
"No ... His head is in pieces, I saw horrible things, for the five great beings, Celestia if you saw the things he did, he ... Did you know that he has several personalities inside him? Or that he has some sealed memories? And what was it that was so horrible for him to seal? I mean, the tortures are fresh in his mind. "
O-other personalities? "Luna, what do you mean by that ?!"
"The seal? Is a well done, I thi ---"
"No! These personalities! What did you see of them?"
"There are three in total, one seems to be very submissive, the second ... The second is one ... I think it would be the bloody emperor he told me, and the third would be ... It would be him."
"This second personality, this is ..."
"Sealed? Yes, both are well sealed in his head, but the worst thing is, I can't say which one is the original personality, I like to think that he is the one in the control now, but I can't confirm that, sorry. "
"I understand, but sealing personalities? I never heard of that."
"Me too, but I recognize a sealing spell, and that was a sealing spell."
What happened in his world? We know so little, will I have to review some old manuscripts, are they still in the same place? I have to go to the royal library more.
"Celestia."
"Speak Luna."
"I would like to remove one of the seal's from the necklace, to make it more comfortable, it would be a good start."
For real? * sigh * the necklace has only three seals, and she already wants to remove one.
"Which one?"
"Mine of course, yours and Discord's remain."
"No, remove my seal, yours is more refined."
"Thank you."
"Luna, be honest, what did he do that left you like this?"
Luna is known for being an elite warrior, we have fought many battles in the past and she looked at death and laughed at her, but when she came out of his dreams yesterday ... She was devastated, she only spoke again during breakfast.
"Horrible things Celestia."
"What type?"
"The type that gives you a reason to receive the mark of the five beings or a ticket to the fifteenth level of the Tartarus."

Memories of the past: The apple and the rainbow
Ok damian, today, today is the day your revenge begins, I look at the throne, a drawing of all my targets, ok... Calm down, let's see the inventory.
Soothing pills, some knives and a stolen sword, it is not a very large sword, it is pony sword, the best would be one for minotaurs, * laughs * will ten knives be enough?
I hope, this castle is falling apart! But it’s my castle, and these exploration troops are getting closer to the castle every day and I’m sure Discord has already found me, * laughs * but he doesn’t attack or tell the ponies, strange but well, he’s the god of chaos, logic should not be his strong point.
I open my wallet, man, it's falling apart, I need to find something better to carry my * laughs * things, I take my family's photo and kiss it, "Calm down, I'm going home, I just have to... To solve a problem here ok? "
I keep the photo and the wallet in a small basket that I use to store my things, I look at it once more before leaving the castle, almost as if an answer is expected from them, "Spenceeeeer..." What the fuck was that ?! ?! I take the sword and point to the door.
"Who's there?"
"..."
I open the door slowly, nothing, just Everfree, man... It seemed... It looked like her * trembles * no, she is very dead, I know that... Calm, not now, I have to calm down for the love of God I'm going to kill someone!
I look again, nothing, just the wind, * laughs * FUCK! CURSED LAUGHS! Jesus, ok, fuck, I'm going, I take the sword and put it in its sheath and start walking towards Everfree, I hope I don't have any problems on the way today.
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
The sun is already setting, I would say it's time for some tea, well, if it weren't for the monsters I would have arrived earlier, checking stock, four knives and the pills are gone, I have to go back and find them later.
I'm in an apple orchard, apple trees lined up as far as the eye can see, I pick up an apple and bite, "good."
I continue this path for a while, using the knife to pick up the apple, yes, I've been training throw, unicorns are a problem, I have to train some way to defend myself from a distance, at the moment I am... Well... Not very good, of my ten attempts I hit three or four apples.
It’s calm, everything has been very calm lately, I haven’t seen Discord for a while, I could say that I’m camping with my father, or dreaming, the trees, the birds, it's a beautiful place, "KILL SPENCER! DON'T FORGET!"
Yes, this is all fleeting, I smile as I watch a barn with lights coming out of it in the distance, "time to hunt !!!"
There she is, my first target, an orange mare with yellow mane and a hat on her head, but if there was one thing I didn't expect to see it's Rainbow Dash there! My god, my two biggest problems in one place! I feel a laugh forming but I cover my mouth with my hands, calm down, I start to climb this barn of hell, it has several holes in the wood, and in a short time I'm already at the top, I made a little noise but they didn't seem to give a fuck, now just wait.
"--- and that coward ran away!"
What are you discussing? I don't know, but they seem to be enjoying themselves, strange, Rainbow is wearing a uniform and a beret.
"You know AJ, I miss the old days, when it was facing magical monsters everything seemed simpler, that war was horrible."
"I know Rainbow, I know," she looks at the barn door, "I miss my brother."
"We all lost something to this war, but I didn't expected to lose Twilight after the war."
"Come on Rainbow, don't you believe that a fire killed her too ?!"
"AJ, calm down, what do you think it was?"
"I don't know, but a fire doesn't kill Twilight! We face things worse than a fire!"
"I, * sigh * ok AJ I understand, but what was it then?"
"I... I don't know, but I bet my hat I'll find out!"
Oops! My cue, I throw a small stone in a pile of hay, it was instantaneous, both turned to the hay and prepared for the fight, soldiers...
"What is it..."
When they move away a little I throw myself on another pile of hay that was behind them, man there's a lot of hay here.
"What? Rainbow what's the joke?"
"N-no! I didn't do anything!"
They are getting closer, I can feel it! They are almost on top of me!
I throw a knife and get out of the hay stack, damn it, I missed them! Three knives left, I pull the sword and try to hit Rainbow, she just starts to fly away from the sword, damn you come back here!
I feel something wrap around me, so I see there’s a loop around my body! Curse! The grip intensifies and I let go of the sword, Rainbow flies and picks it up, ok, calm down, I use all my strength to try to get a knife in my coat, I can see Aplejack's surprised look when I place the knife edge against the rope, with a little force the rope breaks.
My god my heart is beating insanely! Adrenaline rushing through my body, I pull out another knife, "come here little apple, I want to see if you taste the same as the others!" I hear a flapping of wings, and I feel the cold touch of metal crossing my shoulder, I would normally scream until I pass out, but this? It hurt, fact, but it's nothing.
Taking advantage of Rainbow with a sword stuck on my shoulder I try to hit her with one of the knives but she flies away again, damn it!
Ok applejack so when i'm ready to turn to her i just see the two hoofs flying towards me, then I feel a stinging pain in my chest and I fly a few meters and fall to the ground, damn it, I think I broke a rib, shit, I rise, Jesus it hurts a lot.
Where are my knives? Damn, I only have one, ok, calm down, I take a pitchfork that was stuck in a pile of hay and... There! I throw it on that flying blue ball! I hit her! I saw her falling!
"RAINBOW!!!"
Where are they? I try to run towards them, several blocks of hay between us, over there! I hit her side! Applejack is taking the pitchfork off her side, I can already see the blood flowing! This will be good!
"Damn! What the fuck are you !?"
Hi? Don't they remember? Well, it's their problem, I'm not going to spend my time explaining to the dead who I am.
I run towards them, adrenaline throughout my body, I don't even feel the cut on my shoulder anymore and the broken rib is nothing but a little discomfort!
"You will see!"
Wow! Where did she get the sword? She almost hit my neck, wanna play? So let's play, I bet everything! I throw the knife towards her and run, she seems more concerned with the knife that hit the ground pathetically than with me, note, earth ponies are horrible in sword fighting when very close, why? They hold the sword with the MOUTH!
With a punch and she already dropped the sword on the floor, I try to catch it but I feel a tightness in my neck! Damn pegasus!
"Leave my friend alone monster!"
Damn it! Having to bash my back against some pillars but it's useless, she doesn't let go, I try to catch her but it's hard to hold her, damn it!
Damn, the other one is already rising, shit, when I thought things were going from bad to worse I see a little red thread in front of me, her mane! I grab and pull with all my strength, she screams as she loosens my neck, Jesus air is so good.
She is on the floor, the beret lying on her side, the pitchfork holes leaking a little blood, time to finish her off.
I put my knee on top of one of her hooves, I hear her scream as she flaps her wings in an attempt to escape, damn wings! I think it's time to end them!
I take her head and push it against the floor and with the other hand I hold the ligament that joins the wings with the body, I can see the look of horror invading her, she knows, good.
* CRACK *
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRGGHHHHHHHHHHHH !!!"
It's done, one of her wings is at an unnatural angle, too bad I think she will never fly again, now out ---
"YOU MONSTER!!!"
God, everything is spinning! Damn my skull hurts, I try to get away from them while avoiding vomiting, bitch! When I catch you!
I feel another blow in my chest, I'm... I'm flying, I think I fall into another pile of hay, god, everything is spinning!
"By Celestia Rainbow are you okay ?!"
"That bastard broke my wing, it fucking hurts!"
The world seems to be returning to normal, ok Damian, no break for rest, I rise, my neck hurts, I hope it is nothing serious and my chest is on fire, the last thing I need is to have broken another rib.
Wait... This is the pile I threw the stone at! I look around and there it is, I take the stone and I turn to them, Rainbow is in a small pool of blood and Applejack is trying to help her, what a pity, she took her eyes off me, going to rock and bam! I hit her!
She staggers to the side while trying to protect her head, I look around, nothing, where are the knives and the sword? Shit this is going to be at hand.
When I'm almost arriving at Rainbow she notices me.
"Y-you monster! You'll see! When I get up ---"
I kick her in the face "shut up." I think I broke some of her teeth, her mouth is bloody, time to finish the job, I put my knee on her back while holding on to her other wing, she seems to realize that she has started struggling.
I start to pull, I can see the skin stretching, fuck, it can't be so hard to pull a wing off!
"A-Applejack! Help!"
I look back, she is on the ground with her hooves on her head, it must be hurting a lot, a stone has these effects.
But I looked at the other one, my target is this flying shit, now that both my knees are against her back I'm ready, without struggling anymore bitch, "S-stop!"
"Hmmmmm... NO!"
With a quick and powerful tug I pull off her wing, the scream was phenomenal, it was almost... Divine, tears come out of her eyes as her movements get more erratic, "I think it's time to pull out the other wing."
Just the thought of losing the other wing was enough to give her a strength worthy of a normal pony, but unfortunately for her, I'm pretty steady here.
I hear a sound of wind, I throw myself forward, shit, that bitch almost hit me again, damn those hooves look like shots!
"Y-your monster, you will see!"
She is dizzy, I can see, and Rainbow is trying to get up but she is shaking all! I smile, look at it, the pitchfork, I take it, their eyes were priceless, I start to get closer, they obviously move away now I ---
"Sister? What is that noise?"
What? Why is there a foal here? Damn they g--
* thump *
I fly through some stacks of hay, my god... I can't breathe... Shit, I punch my chest in an attempt to breathe, it seems to have worked, god is air so good, I said it already?
"GET OUT OF HERE APPLEBLOW !!!"
"Aunt Rainbow!"
"GET OUT HERE GIRL!"
With a thud the barn door closes, what the fuck, where's the pitchfork? I must have let go of him, shit, I start running towards them, my whole body is hurting, the adrenaline is running out, shit, I try to punch Applejack but she dodges.
So... So I feel a pain in my back! God how it hurts! But I will not scream! They will need more than that, I turn around, yes, Rainbow has the pitchfork stuck in my back.
She takes out the pitchfork while trying to balance herself with the rear hoof, when I get ready to catch her, I feels a huge pain in my leg, CURSED BE APPLEJACK AND HER BULLET HOOF!
I see another attack from this pitchfork, but with all my strength I managed to deflect and punch Rainbow in the face, she flies a few blocks of hay away, I look at my leg, you could clearly see the broken tibia, god it hurts, I don't even need to say it's broken, shit I have to end this quickly! Applejack is staring at me, but it is clear that she is a little dizzy, I cannot run much, but now I will have, when my leg touches the floor I feel an extraordinary pain, this pain is at the level that Sparkle caused, Jesus how it hurt, Jesus I screamed , I screamed in anger as I threw myself on top of her.
* thump *
I'm on top of her, she's trying to get loose while debating the back hoofs, bitch, you almost beat me! Now it's my turn, with both thumbs i pierce her eyes, she roars in pain as she struggles, I stop piercing her eyes and lower my hand to her neck, DIE! I feel something in my neck, shit what's the matter with her neck?
"RELEASE HER!"
Of course, as soon as I finish! I start to squeeze her neck, Rainbow realizes, then she start squeezing too, she wants to run! Then let's run! I start to squeeze more, Applejack is struggling less, her movements are less erratic until it stopped completely, I won!
"NOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!" I feel a kick in the ribs, ok she can have it, I loose applejack and I throw myself to the side, Rainbow seems to forget that I exist since she runs to the corpse.
I look around, hi pitchfork, I take it and I rise, my leg hurts a lot, but it will pass, there is this Rainbow shaking Applejack's body while saying something.
I'm behind her, the pitchfork in my hands, she's crying with the corpse, after a while she stops, and turns to me, her eyes, tears and bruises all over her face.
"It's over."
with a quick movement I pierce the pitchfork in her face, it was fast, too fast to her, I throw myself on the floor, god everything hurts, I look at them, Rainbow has the pitchfork stuck in her face next to Applejack.
God, they gave me work... I thought... I thought I couldn't do it... Jesus...
I hear the barn door slamming "APPLEJACK WHAT IS THE IDEA TO SCARE YOUR SISTER ?! WHEN I STROKE MY HOOFS ON YOU!"
Yes, her family is still missing, I rise, I take a knife that was stuck in a block of hay and I take the pitchfork off Rainbow's face and use it as a support, I smile, Jesus that was incredible!
But before that, I picked up the Applejack hat that was on the floor since the fight started, it's mine now, he he.

Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
Memories of the past: The last flap of a butterfly's wings
I breathe, look at the window, it is raining, a very violent rain, as if the universe itself judged my actions, my crimes and... Crimes? I did not commit any crime... They are animals, all, each of them...
I look around, cadavers, who would say that animals would also have animals, beavers, birds, and even rabbits, these animals tried to help her, they, they managed, at the bottom of the hut there was a crater, the bear, the bear took her and ran away breaking the wall, she is terrified, even though she was blind, I almost could see through the blindfold, she is afraid, even without seeing me she feared me.
It looks like what happened with Pinkie, I hesitated, and because of that the bear took me and saved her, god how my back hurts.
I feel a movement in my hand, it is true, the rabbit is still alive, I rise and I see him, this fur ball gave me trouble, he was almost a general commanding the other animals, if the bear had arrived earlier, maybe I would have lost .
Well, enough with that infernal rabbit, * crack * done, it's over, I sigh as I walk towards the opening.
I let go of the dead rabbit, maybe I'll come back later, prepare some knives, four more left, time... Time to hunt...
The rain is merciless, falling like pocket knives, you can barely see a foot ahead, but the bear's tracks are very visible even in the rain.
There it is, blood, if the trail is fresh even in this rain it means that I must be close, very close.
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
There she is, lying on the floor, her pink mane all smooth and muddy, but without the bear, I look around, I get ready, he is here, he ---
"RAAAAAAARGH!!!"
God this thing almost got me, I ran for a few minutes and it was enough to speed up my heart, but nothing like an angry bear to make my heart race!
He is big, a big brown bear, he has two knives on his shoulder and a small cut on his neck, damn fur, if it wasn't so thick
I avoid two attacks while I stick a knife in his leg, he is strong, he is big, but he is not faster than me.
"STOP!"
Yes, even with the noise of the rain I could still hear her, I thought she had a very low voice, well, it doesn't matter, I already stabbed the bear in the other leg, now he is slower than normal * laughs * "what was it Pooh? Are you tired?"
He is furious, but his pain seems to be getting the better of him, I still have two knives, hmmm what to do...
"Please Damian! Don't hurt Mister Bear anymore!"
Her scream seems to have awakened something in him, he is getting faster, his every blow brings him closer, in an hour he will catch me!
Damn, another scar on the shoulder, nice blow Pooh, well, I think it's my turn, I throw a knife in his eye, my God, now am I getting good at this.
One eye less, I think it’s time to end this, I run towards the bear, he tries to hit me, what a pity, I think losing an eye affected his aim, I grab his shoulder and start climbing him, man, how a rain can disturb a fight.
I feel a pain in my arm, What the fuck! How he hit me! I was on his back! Your bitch! Is this how you want to play? So I'm going to play! I grab his fur with a monstrous grip, and start climbing that bear, "time to sleep Pooh!"
With a quick stab I hit his skull, it swayed for a few seconds before falling lifeless to the floor, "M-mister Bear !?"
I sigh tired while looking at my arm, man, it will take a lot of work to stop this bleeding, now, the main target.
I take the knife from the bear's skull and walk towards Fluttershy, she is shaking, crying and cringing... I would normally say that it was good, but... I don't know... She... She tried me help, but "SPEEEEEEEENCEEEEEER!!! She tried, but failed!" it is true, what is the use of help if it is useless ?!
It is not long before, normally I would appreciate the look of fear, but she is already blind, and that yellow blindfold prevents me from seeing the complete dread of her face.
"D-Damian, please tell me that Mr Bear is fine!"
"Yes he is, he is as well as your other animal friends!"
"T-thanks to Celestia! Please tell me you didn't hurt him too much!"
"What?"
"Mister Bear told me that you hurt my other animals a little, I hope they are okay."
She... This innocence, she, she really thinks that I...
"Fluttershy, a question, Twilight, Sparkle or doctor?"
"I-I..."
"Please answer." I'm approaching Fluttershy, you better hurry!
She, she stopped crying, she even stopped sobbing! She got up and is staring at me, how! She is blind!
"I know the answer that... That you want, sorry Damian, I tried, I talked to some ponies and I even got you some clothes and fish, I know that this is not an excuse, I know that it is not enough, we take you out of your world, and Twilight hurt you, f- "
"Shut up! If I wanted your pity I wouldn't come to you!"
"Kill her SPENCER!"
"You don't know what I went through."
"I know."
"You didn't see what I saw."
"I heard"
"YOU DIDN'T FEEL WHAT I FEEL!!!"
"BELIEVE ME, I FEEL!!!"
I'm just a few centimeters away from her, she... She's very calm, how can she compose herself like this?
I kneel down and look at her as I play with the knife "So this is the Captain of the fourth squad of pegasos?" she trembles while looking away, how? She knows where I am! "
"I... I don't like that title."
"Of course not, because of that you are blind, but don't worry, soon you won't have to worry about anything."
"Do I... Damian do me a favor? I mean, if it's not a nuisance of course."
"Speaks."
"When you... When you're done with me, could you please... Take care of my animals."
"What?!"
"I'm sorry! I expressed myself badly! Could I take care of those who are hurt the most? My rabbit Angel will take care of the less injured."
"I... Ok..."
She, is she taking the blindfold off? My god... Those eyes, so big, a cream color with hints of blue, yes she really is blind, and I could call her beautiful if I could see her smile, this rain is getting stronger.
"Damian, can you forgive me?"
"Hmm?"
"You can forgive me, for not being able to help you more than I did, Pinkie and I were going to ask for another trial... But I think we took too long."
"Yea." I place the knife against her neck, she hesitates and gives a little cry when she realizes it.
She smiles at me, a smile that I only saw my dear Maria demonstrate, I, I...
"Spencer! Stop crying! Act like a man! Take the damn pill!"
It's true, a pill in my coat and I swallow it.
I can already feel, the euphoria, fear and anxiety disappearing, Twilight used it when she was uncomfortable with the tests, or I was very agitated... I only managed to save five pills, I think I only have two more pills, I hope I can.
"D-Damian, I'm scared."
"We are all Fluttershy, but you are going to... To a nice place."
I pull the knife and with a quick movement on her neck it's done, a quick and painless death, damn rain.
I get up, she is there, lying on the floor, I look up, what time is it? Night? Day? I don't know, the gods are missing... I can't kill them, I can't... They move the sun, Jesus.
I think, I think I'm going to the castle, but before I pick up Fluttershy and take her to her house, she would like to stay at her house, not in that hellish rain.
I fix her hair and put a small cloth on her wound, "bye Fluttershy, I," damn why the pill is not working! "Goodbye."
I feel a cold invade my chest, and only one question remains in my head, why.
Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
So... let's start over...
I sigh, one more turn through these hellish corridors, it’s good to have the holy grail at the end of this corridor.
Guess what? There wasn't, there was another corridor! That’s why I destroyed half the castle’s corridors! No more mazes, just a path between my room and the throne room, other parts of the castle I accessed with a teleport spell, my god it would be much faster than walking through these endless corridors.
"Are we getting there yet? Soon Miranda will eat the doors, really? Gems even on the doors?"
"Well, Mr. Spencer," Jesus felt a chill down my spine! I shivered a little, man, I didn’t expect her student to cause this reaction to me, "the doors are decorated with the most beautiful precious stones found by all equestria and... MIRANDA LEAVE THIS RUBY NOW !!!"
There it was, my dear chewing a ruby like bread, seriously, once I thought these stones were soft, different from those on Earth, I tried to try one, I almost broke all my teeth, I can confirm that they are authentic and equal the gems on Earth.
"Leave her Shining, just a seven-year-old child, right?"
She lets out a snort while wrinkling her face, cute, these ponies have this strange ability to do cute things, but I still prefer fear and absolute terror, that is the good thing, but I believe I won't be able to taste much of their fear for while... I better get used to it.
How will the things be in my world? If I'm not mistaken today Bloody Novel should start the plan: No thieves, at any time, I hope... I hope she is okay, god I'm talking about the Bloody Novel! Obviously she is fine, nothing can kill that mare!
I am taken out of my thoughts when we stop our endless walk and stop in front of another door, what to say? It's another door with golden ornaments and some gems stuck in it, really, all these doors look the same to me.
"Damian, Miranda, I'm going to introduce my friends, so take it easy ok? They... They already know your story, Damian."
Well, let's go then, I nod as I walk towards the door, seriously, if you only have ponies in this new group of, the new carriers of the elements of harmony I will call you racist.
When she opens the door I enter the living room, it is a relatively large room, no, was it someone's room? There are beds there, and... The current carriers of the elements? Are these her friends? That's weird.
Shining coughs a few times to get attention, they were all together in a corner talking about something, but when they heard Shining's voice they stopped their discussion, Rainbow was flying with her hoofs crossed while looking at a window, her eyes were the eyes of someone who was thinking about something, something sad, Pinkie and Rarity were next to each other and expressed a small smile, a smile that says many things, but not joy, Flutt- Fluttershy seems sad to see me, she hides her her face in her mane, Applejack was the one that caught my attention the most, her ears went down while she took off her hat and put it against her chest, she somehow manages to walk towards me and says in a voice that carries nothing but pity and sadness.
"Hello champion, I, ahmmm, hello?"
For real? God they are hilarious, I start to laugh, they seem to take it nicely, since they are no longer faking smiles or looking away... I... Why wasn’t that how things ended? Me and them laughing in a room, instead of... A dungeon.
"Well, so these are your friends Shining? The same as your mentor I see."
"I-it's not that... It's that when I studied with her, she introduced me to them, that's all!"
"Really? Quick question, but how old are you?"
She looks nervous, what's wrong with that mare?
"I have... Ahmm..."
What the fuck? Trouble remembering your own age? Something doesn't smell good here, maybe an imposter or a changeling? I don't know if I want to see Chrysalis yet.
"She's just a little nervous about the plan, that's all, pleasure, I'm Applejack!" when did she put on the hat and hug Shining? Should I have realized this, seriously, six days without escaping death and my reflexes are already going to shit?
"Well, this little egghead here is seventeen years old."
Seventeen? She looks older, god, since when did I become a specialist in colorful talking horses? I think it was when I spent seven years of my life in that hell.
I look at Miranda, she shows a small smile as she looks at Shining, these two...
I sigh while looking at the others, they seem to want to say something, but I think the cat ate their tongue, I shrug as I walk towards a small sofa, I was almost there when I felt something jump on my back, it was instantly, I bend down while I throw whatever was on my back towards the sofa, when I realize I see a little ball of pink hair jumping on the sofa, really? She?
"That was fun! Again! Again!"
This mare is... Unique, Rainbow seemed a little worried that I threw her friend on a sofa, her problem, I walk and sit on the sofa while pinkie continues to jump at an insane speed and with a rather big smile.
"So miss * laughs * egghead, how will it be? Another questioning or are these good news?"
They look at each other for a moment, strange, I don't know what's going to happen, I don't like that, calm Damian, a new beginning, this world is different.
"Well dear, we have a plan! You must be devastated, since you went through everything... Then we think."
"If you didn't want to, I don't know, leave this castle." Rainbow sucks with emotional speeches, it's funny how she blushes and looks away.
"So we had a mega-super idea!"
Applejack laughs a little as he approaches me, "what they mean is, do you want to come with us to Ponyville to spend some time?"
What?
"If it doesn't bother you, of course."
"But of course it bothers me! Sparkle has a castle at the door of that village!"
"My master was, ahmm, if I'm not mistaken, she's traveling to the Griffin Federation, she'll be away for a while, you can to spend some time there."
"The baby dragon, will he be there?"
"Yes."
"I'll."
"MIRANDA! Don't take hasty measures!"
"I can remove one of the limiters from your necklace, what do you think?"
Hmmm, now we are negotiating, I cross my legs, I feel a strange urge to pet something that was in my lap, when I realize I see Pinkie in my lap enjoying the caresses, ok, lets play along, "I want meat, and no, it can't be fish, I want to be able to go wherever I want and if I think it's necessary I can leave Ponyville. "
"Only accompanied by one of us, and on the * glup * meat I--"
"I can fix the meat issue."
Of course would be the animal handler who would take care of this issue, but the others seemed to find something strange, except Pinkie, she continued to enjoy the caresses.
"Why Ponyville?"
"Some problem?"
"No, is that, that village is not extremely famous for suffering many attacks from monsters?"
Shining seems to blush slightly, "well, yes, but lately the village has been calmer, look, if you don't want to go we can see another place."
"What's the problem with Canterlot?"
"Well, is that you were... Hurt here so I thought ---"
"Ok, ok I get it," I look at Miranda, she seems to be staring at Rarity's cutie mark "are you going there?" she looks at me as she nods, damn it, "ok I'm going, but don't expect me to work on an apple farm or a bakery."
"Okayyyy... So are you really going?"
My god, I sigh, "yes I will go to Ponyville, satisfied?"
She smiles while looking at the others, they are talking about something to do with the school, is it true they are teachers or something, or were not yet? What year is it?
I stay in this question trying to remember what the guard had said when I realized, Fluttershy was sitting on my side of the sofa! She tried to hide her face in the mane, Pinkie seems to notice, she turns and starts to growl like a cat, "MY HUMAN!"
I laugh, this mare, did I say that she is unique? Why is she, "say Fluttershy, what do you want to know?"
"I, hmmm, well, you would like to, I mean, I can let you, if you want of course, stay at my house, if that doesn't bother you of course."
She is blushing, how cute, "well, I don't mind, but I warn you, Miranda snores and I have nighttime panic attacks, so it's good to be prepared."
Miranda had her back to me while looking at a bookshelf, but she shows me the middle finger, I laughed a little, obviously she was going to hear.
She nods slightly, "Damian, what do you like to do?"
What I like to do? * laughs * if I said I think she was going to have a heart attack, or maybe she hates me, "i like chess, racing, I like to compete if you prefer it like that."
"Swear? I like chess too! Although I'm not a good player, Twilight is a lot better than me."
I shivered a little, "I, Fluttershy," she looks at me, "don't say that name ok? Say Spakle."
Her eyes widen with realization, "I-I-I'm sorry Damian! I didn't mean to remind you of her!"
I know, I nod slightly as I look back at the other carriers, they seem to be discussing something about changelings, "PET ME!" I chuckle as I pet Pinkie again, I wonder when we're going.
"What do you think of animals?"
"Good food."
"What ?!"
"Oops, sorry, you must mean pets? I like them, I had a dog."
"Really? How was that?"
"It was a nice dog one, a sausage dog, god how i miss her."
"Was it a she?"
"Yes, she was pregnant, my god those puppies must already be huge..."
"I see... Look at Damian, Applejack has a dog too, you know? I can introduce you to her."
Believe me, I know, that dog, it was a hell to catch, she hurt me while I went into the Apple house, but one hour she tried to bite me, I had a pitchfork, * laughs * a dog on a stick.
"Are you already excited? Will it be amazing! And big mammals? Do you have problems with bears?
Yes I do, but is it worth talking about?
"No, as long he don't bite or scratch me I'm fine."
"M-Mister Bear would never do that! He's harmless!"
Harmless? He gave me some scars, I would like to know her definition of harmless, but well, that was the, * laughs * Mr Bear in seventeen years... SEVENTEEN YEARS! It is true, this world is seventeen in the past, maybe it is different, maybe they are all different, my god, maybe Miranda is really right, a new world, a new beginning, a real new beginning.
"What happened Damian? Looks thoughtful * laughs * what are you thinking about?"
"In the future..."
"I understand, in addition to competition, what else do you like?"
"Food."
"Swear? I know how to cook, I can even make something with meat since you are an omnivore, I have some carnivorous animals so I had to learn."
"I know, and you, what do you like to do?"
I don't think she expected that question, she blushes slightly while hiding again behind her mane, my god I don't remember her having such huge mane.
"Well, I like animals, peace, tranquility, silence, reading."
"I also like to read, it is good for entertaining the mind."
"You swear?! What do you like to read?"
I laugh, classics obviously, "I like Gary Hoof's books."
"Books? But there is only one book, wait, will there be a sequence !?"
My god, are the books coming out yet? Calm Damian! Without spoiler!
"Yes! There are going to be a lot, one better than the other! Although the ending is kind of shit."
"How do you know that?"
Oops, I always talk too much, ok how to answer that? Hmmm I already know!
"Pinkie told me."
"Oh."
"Pinkie didn't say an-- * shakes *"
Ready, a little bit of affection and pets behind the ear and she already playing along, good Pinkie.
"Any other specific book? What more do you like?"
"History, it is good to learn, anyone who does not know the mistakes of the past is bound to make them in the future."
"Wow, that was, deep, is that your phrase?"
"No, it must be from some famous human, a friend once told me that, but man, he was right."
"Any past mistakes you made and now regret?"
God, that was, wow, "yes, *sigh* some mistakes."
"Well, we finished discussing things here dear, now we can go."
"Go? Go where?"
"Ponyville, of course, has a train leaving in an hour!"
My god what is the problem in this world to warn about something in advance!
"Are we going, like, now?"
"But of course dear, the sooner I get to my sewing shop the faster I can sew you a new outfit! I also have to take your measurements, but I will do it in Ponyville."
Ok, I pat Pinkie twice, she yawns and stretches like a cat before jumping off my lap to walk towards Rainbow, I rise as I point to the door, "lead the way."
My head looks like it's going to explode, why today the day seems worse than usual, and now the worst comes.
"Hello my dear nephew, how can I help you today?"
"Skip the formalities aunt, you know, as the leader of the ten great noble families in Canterlot, my highest priority is with the safety of the castle and the city, and a little bird told me that the being... Who was at dinner was not just any prisoner, I would like to hear from you how dangerous he is and why he remains in our beloved city? "
Blueblood, such a good heart, but such a misguided mind, "well, my beloved nephew, the name of this prisoner is Damian Spencer and he will be a future ally of Equestria in the coming war, it’s not like you care right? The ten noble families don't care about anything that goes on outside this city. "
"Well, you didn't answer my questions, my dear aunt, I will repeat it, how dangerous he is, and why she remains in our beloved Canterlot."
Blueblood knows how to step on somepony's hooves masterfully, there is no use lying to him, one time or another he will find out through a 'little bird.'
"He is in custody and his level of power is... Incalculable at the moment, consider him at Discord level and about his stay in Canterlot, Twilight is providing a replacement immediately, no need to worry about him or the safety of Canterlot. "
"So I hope aunt, the last thing I want is to disagree with the princess right?"
I nod slightly, he repeats the gesture and leaves the throne room, for Faust my head will explode if I have to deal with another noble today! I really hope that Captain Golden Shield is free tonight.
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
I look up, it must be midday, I sigh, really? From everywhere, they chosen Ponyville? I'm not kidding, if I bump into Spakle I'll have an attack and it won't end well, I hear another sigh of surprise or fear, I look around, uninformed nobles and ordinary citizens are staring at me, sometimes I pretend to throw something at them, this seems to be enough to make them run and scream, HA! Who said I couldn't scare they anymore !? Was it me? Damn it, I swore it was Pinkie, well, after two scoldings of them I stopped, yes you heard me, scolded, I got a scolding! Really, I'm getting soft, but, I promised Miranda to try to start over, but by God, if they call me a circus animal again, screw it, I'm going to eat unicorn tonight.
"We are here!"
"Are we there? This is a train terminal, without a train!"
"He must be a little late dear, just wait."
Go Miranda! Finish them off! Oh, what a pride, a father can't stand it so much, I cough a little, blood, damn it, I clean the blood on a random pole while I join the discussion.
"Yes, I agree, the price of gold keeps rising."
They stopped whatever they were talking about and stared at me, Miranda gave a laugh while looking at the castle, I follow her example and I look magnificent, although I consider them barbaric and naked animals, the things they manage to do are memorable, what a pity, mine was better, it had a gold waterfall that came out of one of the towers, it was not liquid gold, but it was still an absurd amount of gold, I had to deal with some dragons to protect it, but it was magnificent, it had even some houses around it from desperate ponies wanting to mine that waterfall, the ponies can, after all they were citizens of New Equestria, the dragons were not, they were boring.
Oops, it looks like the train arrived, I turn around, it was one of their greatest achievements, I still wonder how they have trains but they don't have electricity or cars, I mean, yes they have electricity but magic electricity doesn't count!
We got in the wagon, I had to bend down to get on this train, Miranda didn't have to bend down, she smiles and shows me her tongue, how dare she! How cute, I send a kiss to her and I sit on one of the benches, she blush a little.
A wagon just for us, I think someone asked for some favors for this to happen, Miranda sits on the bench in front of me and starts looking at the window, scratching it with her claw.
Well, I’m also starting to look out the window, it’s a beautiful city, Fluttershy sits next to me and Pinkie looks furious! She's mumbling something about Fluttershy stealing her pets, really, these ponies, look at the level of their problems, it must be because the war hasn't started yet, I close my eyes while sighing.
I feel a snout in my lap and some exaggerated sighs from Rarity, ok, pets, lower my hand while I start to pet her, stranger, Pinkie got more mane?
I slowly open my eyes as I look at a lonely cloud on the horizon, the train starts to move, so... Let's start over...
Author's Note
So that's it, the story is over, the sequel may take a while to be posted but it will be, I already have the end written, I just need to write what exists between the end and this chapter
Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
The normal day of a bloody emperor
It's morning, I hate and love mornings, don't have nothing better than the fresh morning wind on your face after wake up, the worst of the mornings are, well, wake up, but not today, today are Tuesday and this mean a good dinner.
I get up a little sleepy, I pass my hand over my eyes and walk to the balcony, looking around my room it's visible the deplorable state of the chamber, just my bed it's in good state why, you know, I sleep there, then, when the fresh wind hit my face I escape from my thoughts and look to the city, to my kingdom, I can see even the gigantic amount of gold that flown from one of the towers, and the many of ponies trying to crack one good piece of the golden river, the unique reason for having so many ponies here, they are mining that insane amount of precious metal.
And personally, I don't care, my eyes are in the buildings near the castle, I love this part of mornings, I walk slow to the balcony and put my hand on it, and wait, how many? Just four? It's just what a can see but I know, have more, more than just four ponies aiming my head with the bows and horn, I could not hold a smile, and stare one of then, do it, I challenge you, do it, and like every single mornings for like three months, they don't have courage, they just have to push the trigger, release the mana thought the horn, but they are scared, they know I'm faster than an arrow, and know what happen to those that try to kill the emperor, and will not be two pegasus and two unicorn that going to kill me, more powerful ponies tried, and failed, but it's so good see the hope through the eyes, searching a breach and not finding it, haha, I love the mornings, I turn around and walk the slowest that I can, almost inviting they to try a shot, but they don't do, like every day, when I enter in my room just one thought are in my mind "today is going to be a good day."
After cleaning myself in the royal bathroom I walk in my castle, looking the old windows and the broken stained glass, I love breaking those, principally that one with... With... (shakes) twilight how I, I, I fear this name and hate at same time, she, because of her, I made a promise, a promise that I'm following for six long years, KILL EVERY SINGLE PONIE THAT EXIST! In in the middle of the process, if I'm not wrong, actually 80% of the pony's population are dead, ahh the proud is so good.
When I enter in the throne room I can smell just death, in a corner, two or three ponies are dead, probably a little game of my "employees," the Defenders of New Equestria or DNE how they like to be called, ha, I can see them, ten of the worst of the worst, right in front of the throne with a mother and two little foals, this going to be good.
I sit in what some day was a throne, now are just a big pile of stone, but is MY big pile of stone, I take a look at they and wait, even in this chaotic world we have protocols, my general, commander and leader of the DNE, Bloody novel approaches me and slightly nods at me and spoke the routine monologue, how merciful I'm and how grateful they are and some shit like that, I just ignore that a look at my suitcase on the left side of the throne, that was a HUGE suitcase an there I keep my most precious things I have in this life, a burned photography of my family, the first book I read, the holy bible, and the mutilated and decapitated rest of my many past battles, feather for pegasus and similar, horn for unicorn and a tuft of mane for the normal ones.
Haa... So many memories, while still rambling staring at my suitcase I hear the Bloody Novel cough and speak with that monotonous tone "sir we caught this mare, she does not carry the foal's birth certificate and I believe since she had two foal you should be informed."
I can see that mare now more clearly, a blue fur with some type spoon as mark, she two foal are grey for the bigger and the small one are light blue, hum, she is scared, horrified and I can see tear forming in her eyes: "please my lord, all powerful an--"
"Shut up!" it's so good scare someone like this, I barely spoke and she shake entirely pressing her foal against she chest and bringing the other near to her with a hoof, this felling, is inequitable, I dare to say, it rivals with sex, but now is not time for playing with she.
I turn to my suit case and look to the red crystal encrusted in it side and think what I want, when my hand touch the gem I can fell a tingling in my hand, before remove it and look at she, her eye become huge, she know what comes.
"What do you think my beloved subject, it's a fine gem not?" she frozen, while I hold the element of honesty, everyone crumble, every history that she planned, crumble, I mean, the gem is broken, an orange apple with a crack in the middle, this little gem would supposedly give me the ability to tell when someone lies, I don’t know if it’s the crack or the fact that the stone don't think I'm worthy, so it has no effect some besides decorative, but of course, the ponies don't need to know that right?
"A-a-a fine piece my lord" she spoke barely managing to stand. The silence take over the throne room, she open his mouth sometimes like if she wanted to speak, but any word come out her mouth, it's my time to speak: "soooo... Tell me my subject, why you don't have the birth certificate?"
She begins, trembling and looking around, I know what she is looking for and unfortunately for she, it's too early "my lord, you see, I'm from Gallophilia northwest from New Canterlot and I-I don't had time to take o-one in the middle of chaos," interesting, I think I hear this history three or four times already but whatever the truly question here is: "how old are your little foal here" I could not stop a smile forming I my face.
"My-y-y lord-"
"I-I-I, my lord has mercy, he just has eight years and his big sister eleven!"
"Hmmm I see, but you know the law, (cof cof) EVERY SINGLE PONY BORN BEFORE THE DATE OF 1565 COULD BE KILLED WITHOUT CONSEQUENCE INSIDE NEW EQUESTRIA AND THE COUNTRIES OVER THE WORLD!!!" I just look at she, waiting an answer and she doesn't disappoint me by answering almost immediately
"b-but have so many ponies here, some of them with almost 70 years old!"
I don't like it, the way she spoke with my, like I was some stranger, and she know it, the look that I give to her make it, I slowly keep the element in the suitcase.
"Please forgive my lord, I-I-I get carried away!"
I don't talk, I don't need to, just nod to Bloody Novel and she know what to do, with a fast movement she balance her sword, and the mare almost scream, almost, she know what's going to happen if she does, she can just look at her ear on the floor in a pool of blood, I can see tear falling in her eyes and her horn glowing, just to keep she sons mouth well closed and eyes covered, ahh maternal spirit.
"look Lady..."
"L-L-Lov-e Li-lie sir"
"Enchanted, so how today I'm feeling merciful we will make a deal, what do you think?"
I can see she head working and forgetting the pain with the hope of getting out here alive, how foolish thought, I smile.
"A-a-a deal?"
"Yes!" I love this part, what she going to do? "Look Love Lilie, my stock of food are low" her last ear lowers slowly " and I see that you have two little foal here, in New Canterlot, what I would say a stupid thing but, well, how do I tell this to you, they are dead."
Tears burst from her eyes and she opens her mouth to speak but I get up my arm, "here is the deal my lady, I have a good amount of foal meat" she almost throw up, ahh if I say what more I have, "but look, my stock of adult unicorn meat are getting low, so, let's trade."
She hesitated, for a second, she hesitated, I personally do not judge her, in fact I congratulate her for being able to speak and not having pissed all over, which is extremely common, "t-t-trade what?"
"You of course my dear, look, you have four healthy hoof and two foal, let's do like this, for every hoof you give to me, I release and give my blessing to one of them, it's a good deal and from bonus I will give to you my bless too!"
She frozen! She literally Frozen! I just love this part, ahh goddam why I don't have some coca now?
"But of course, if you don't want to give up your little foal and your life, I, the emperor of the Kingdom of New Equestria, benevolent as I'm will let you go freely."
She smiles, even hating the ponies, I must say, they have a cute face when its filled with hope.
"M- my emperor I-I-I--"
"Shhhhhh... Look, today is 31 from the last month... And is almost mid-day, soon will be the vacation of my soldiers."
Her eyes! Its priceless! so she know what that mean, this day will be a hell, no rules, no laws just my team and the poor ones they find out
"And your little foal here, my soldier Deep Drill was staring him since we began talking" she lightly looked at the black unicorn, clad in heavy armor licking her lips while staring at the pony on her lap
"M-my lord I."
"Oh, for the god sack stop with that stutter and speak woman"
"What are I suppose to do m'lord?! They are my sons!"
Stress is disappearing, and now with my best smile I speak slowly: "look my dear, from personal experience, ponies still able to walk with one hoof off, but two... Not talking about the wound that it's going to left, I, well, suggest you to choose one, but WHO you may ask?" this felling, she face, its soooooo good! "I personally don't know, you could chose save the little one, since he have more life to 'live,' and kill the old, but there is a catch, look that filly, already have a cutie mark and those stuff, completely aware of what is happening, yes don't think I don't see your reactions there little one, soo... You can kill the smallest one, that poorly one, don't even understand what is happening, what do you say? He will not feel anything, I promise as emperor of my Kingdom."
I love that face, looking among her children, thinking about what to do, the youngest doesn’t show any reaction, he just does him best to stay as close to her, the older one on the other hand is in shock, doesn’t move, barely breathes, but occasionally looks at your mother and shakes her head in denial, "but of course, you can chose save both, maybe with they help you can walk, what? Walk two kilometers before passing out and inevitably die, two little ponies, without parents, inside the New Canterlot, you know what will happen to them here, in a week the blessing will be over, so, well, who knows, I mean I know, but, do you know?"
ITS SOO FUCKING GOOD, the fear, the hate, insecurity, selfishness, the weight of one life, the worth of one life, I barely can believe that it's just a Tuesday!!!
"Soooo, my dear, the clock don't stop, if you don't choose, you don't get the blessing, and my employees are thirsty of, well, I will let you guess."
"I-I-I-I----"
"STOP THIS NOW!!!"
" no...
Behind me, I don't need to turn to see, have a dragoness, one sapphire dragon, more precisely, Miranda, my, well, my child, even she don't admitting that, well, I save her when she was like, one or two years, and she is supposed to be sleeping, ahhhh! how I hate this, when I'm having fun she comes and mess up with my games, challenge in front of my soldiers, and even insult me! And by god, the smile that this mare is showing is so irritating, I want to rip one of your eyes out of anger, ahhhhh!
"Mm-m-m - m-m-m-my goddess me please"
"Shhhh, it's okay my little pony"
"Don't dare, Mirand-"
"You can go, nobody will hurt you, do you hear? She and her foals have my blessing! And anyone who does them any harm will face my wrath!"
I, Jesus, how angry I am, she even gave them her blessing, they are untouchable now! not even the most insane of the insane would touch a pony protected by her, whyyyyyyyy! ahhhhh the hate, Jesus she fucked with my Tuesday!
"M-m-m-min-min-my goddess, thank you, may your infinite and unimaginably beautiful and piety never end!"
I can smell it, I don't know if it was before Miranda or after realizing they were saved, but someone really pissed.
I looked at her, the smile embedded in her face said a lot of things, but it certainly wasn't a good morning, I looked at my guards, Bloody Novel was still stoic looking at an imaginary point between me and Miranda, maybe ... If I give the horde she kills this mare, who I'm deceiving she would do it, but it's not worth it, Deep Drill, the second in command, sketches a sad face, I imagine why, but there was the problem, the two newcomers if I'm not wrong become soldiers in two weeks and they have a face that is a mixture of disappointment and confusion, that, that will culminates in insubordination and I am not in the mood for another coup.
Jesus, my brother was right, Tuesday is the worst day of the week, if something good happens on a Tuesday, watch out.
I can't do anything, if Miranda says anything, it is, and today its three miserable life's.
"Since my, beloved child say" ahh revenge, I see her smile going away "you and you foals can go away, BUT, don't come back, for Jesus Christ, if I know you come back, I, personally will hunt you and eat your foals in front of you, I make myself clear?!?!
"Y-Y-Yes my lord, thank you for sparing us" This repulsive mare look at Miranda and nod her head, Miranda return the gesture.
They walk as fast as possible to the gigantic door that I call the gate, the mother walking as fast than a loose bladder and the lack of an ear along with the glaring pain that accompanies it, not to mention the small pony she held in her lap allow.
When the gate closes, all the clocks, all the armor produces a little music signaling one thing, it's noon ...
It was not difficult to dismiss them, in less than five minutes they left, walking, hunting in New Canterlot, today, few can say that they are safe, unless of course, a small mare and her foals.
I turned to her, she knew I was furious, which only increased her smile.
"Why?"
"You know why, we have a lot of unicorn and foal meat, we invaded all the daycares that exist in this country and you know, canterlot was a unicorn city, you didn’t need that meat, besides, I was sleeping and your 'negotiating' woke me up. "
"But they were our dinner!" the anguish in my voice, there was no way to forge it.
"Nope, today we are having pegasus" that hit me so hard, so hard that a little smile grows in my face, while I lip my lips, I can almost taste it.
"Okay, but you cook, consider it a punishment for ending my fucking fun, I'm sure she would choose to save the older one." she didn't even pay attention to what I was saying, she just pointed to a corner of the room where my barbecue was made with bricks and some spears from the armory.
"Look at that, of course I'm going to cook, that is filthy and you better clean it," I nodded, my old barbecue grill is here before you, your overdeveloped lizard, you better show more respect! Ha how I wanted to shout this out...
"Well, then will it be pegasus done on your super grill?"
"My super grill, all powerful, who is terrified of a small and helpless purple alicorn is impeccable!
"That's ... Miranda, loo-"
"Look what? Say that, the slayer of the chaos god, assassin of the twin princesses, monster of canterlot, are scared to death TWILIGHT SPARK--"
"STOP !!!"
These feelings, no, they, me, I can feel my eyes moisten, no, this name, I, I can feel the pain, the humiliation, everything coming, CURSE BE THIS ALICORNIO, I can feel my heart racing and I'm already sweating cold, Miranda knows what she did, I think she tried to give me a hug, or shake me up, but I don't know, everything is numb and cloudy, so, almost as if it were magic, I hear a voice, a distorted and grotesque voice, a robotic and screaming voice.
"Mr. Spenceeeer, wake up, it's timeeeeee!"
"No..." no...
I feel my knees getting weak, no, she IS DEAD, I killed her with my hands! "Don't lie, Mr. Spencer, do you know what I do with liars? The pon- he he, people, who hinder my studies?"
"Noooooooooooo !!!" I scream, I scream as much as my lungs allow, and then everything goes back to normal, I can see Miranda, she holds my shoulders as tightly as she can, and, she cries. She hugs me as hard as she can, and says things like:
"I'm sorry. I forgot. It won't be repeated." she is crying, god heaven if the gates were not well closed and thick.
Here, embraced with her, I feel safe, the scaly skin is as warm as a cup of tea, her tears as cold like the first ice cream that someone tastes, here I am not the emperor of New Equestria, here I am not the object of tests N ° 5, here I am just Damian Spencer.
She looked at me, a small smile on her face, "I'm going to make the best pegasus of your life, okay?" I just snorted, blushing slightly and doing my best to hide behind the metal circle in my head that I call the royal crown.
She got up, yes, that's when I realized we was on the floor! Good, life has its ups and downs, right?
She walks slowly to the right of the throne where my second suitcase is and where she calls home, seriously, in a second she turns into a pink light, in another it disappears into that heart-shaped crystal, and I wipe my tears, me I get up and take a deep breath, it's gone, it's over.
Then, almost as if the universe had heard me I feel it, the magic field of the PLANET trembles, and a bright circle appears below me, I know what it is, a teleportation spell, a very powerful, very powerful one, everything that I manage to make and grab my suitcases, because with them comes Miranda and my weapons, I can feel my legs disappear, I look at my coat, all the combat horns are here, I grab the marble-colored horn and instantly feel the heat still residing in him.
"Man, how I hate Tuesdays!"

I prepare myself, but before, i look to the moon, beatiful an shiny, a great view, finished the preparetions i jump, a simple jump, from one roof to a window, *CRASH* I'am in!
I can see they face, confusion and fear, a lot of ponys, like twelve and nine foals and there, near the table with the food and a cake it's a pink mare, with a poofy mane are looking at me, her friends shouted or attacked me, she just look at me, with a mortal silense... I walk, holding a knife tightly.
"STOP!" so she speak... Fuck it, this gonna be good!
"Try stop me!" I almost hit a pony! But she literaly put a fucking cannon from nowhere in front of me and shot! If I had not grab the window I probaly would stop in another house!
"Damian please... Take it easy!"
What she said? I dont know, i just trown some knifes in their direction, I hit someone? Well, I dont hear any scream.
"Damian, listen to aunt Pinkie, you don't have to do this!"
"Do? Do what? Hehe, i just wanna play with you Pinkie, lets have fun!"
"No, bad Damian" i almost hit her, she is really fast, but her friends... Hehe, just more two knifes, i trown one at a foal and she literaly trown herself in the way! *Crack* ops, looks like they break the door, I probally should put more planks here, mental note, before a attack, put a LOT of planks in the doors, but whatever, have more two tightly secured doors until they left the house, now its me and Pinkie.
"Its alredy time to put the knife in the pony?"
"I dont like that game!"
"You dont need to like it!"
How is she so fast? She basically slides by me, even with a knife stuck in her hoof!
"Look Damian, i-iam sorry ok? We... I should have done something! But i dont do! II---"
"I know, everyone do the same... Applejack and Rainbow... Rarity... Now its your time to pay!"
I grab her! I dont expectad that it work but worked! I then start to slowly squeeze her neck, well I can already hear her choking!
"D-damian, I forgive you ok?"
"Forgive me?!" the tightening intensifies "FORGIVE ME! I will never feel so happy to kill one of you!"
I feel a kick in the belly, so she wants to play.
*cough cough* "Damian, I ... You don't want to do that, killing isn't your thing, you're a good guy, so put the knife down please!"
"Killing isn't my thing? Do you know who killed Rainbow? Applejack? Rarity or Twilight!" this name...
"I KNOW! Look, I should have done something, maybe I went to the castle and talked to you, but I didn't go, maybe I warned the princesses, but I didn't warn them, I ... I'm afraid Damian, there's something coming, something big and I don't know what it is! "
"Yes? And what do you want me to do? Grab a magic sword and save your ass? I'll warn you Pinkie! That big thing is me!"
"NO IT'S NOT! Damian, I don't hate you, even though I know what you did to my friends ... I don't hate you."
"Yes i know, hehe, they are usually scared!" I almost got her, she gets really distracted while talking, I get a knife stuck in the wall, "come pinkie pinkie pinkie!"
"Iam not a cat! Look at Damian, I'm not afraid of you or hate I have ---"
I got her! I sank a knife in her belly while I lift her some feet off the floor! "Have what? Hmmm speak, or the chatterbox was speechless?"
Ahh there is already blood coming out of her mouth! I must have hit something important!
"I-i-i ... I'm sorry for you ..." her smile ...
"STOP SMILING!"
"Hehe ... I like this song ..."
"I AM KILLING YOU! STOP SMILING!"
"I can't ... Element of laughter remember? Hehe "
Why are tears coming out of my eyes? WHY!!!
"See? You are a good boy, Damian, I said when I met you, and Aunt Pinkie never miss!"
"STOP SMILING!" I start to tighten up more, I'll break your neck if I have to!
"Da- Damian, I-I sorry f-for you, I do n-not hate, or f-fear, I-I forgive you D-Damian, for al--" * CRACK * done, I can see her smile slowly fading, when did my heart get so fast? I let go, pick up my trophy, and look, there in the corner of the room is a foal with a party hat, yes, I haven't finished the job, but why don't I feel that disgusting pleasure? When I killed the others I never felt so alive, now it just feels, I don't know, wrong ...
Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
I will tell you a story...
Sigh, the morning sun coming through the window waking me up, where am I? I look around, I'm in bed, I feel a tightness in my chest and I see two blue arms wrapped around him, Miranda let me sleep in the same bed as her? That's news, "hi? Miranda? are you awake?"
"No..."
I try to let go of her, but the grip only intensifies, damn it, Miranda lets me out! "Let me go, you stink!"
It was instantaneous, she let me go and kicked me out of bed, "what? You're the one who stinks!"
I smile victorious, I get up and walk towards the window, it's not the best breeze there is, but it's enough to lift the spirits... Start over...
"No dear, I'm sure you stink!"
"Well, I haven't showered in days, and you clearly stink more!"
I laugh a little, well she's right, my clothes are rags, a battered coat with nothing in it, a shirt that has long lost its blue coloring, the pants, do not remember what color they were, but now it is gray, Miranda on the other hand has more refined clothes, she has a blue shirt coloring as well as her pants, if you do not pay attention could think that she is without clothes, Imagine? My little princess walking around naked around like these barbarians! It's better not think about it.
"Damian, you have to get you another outfit, this one stinks already."
"And yours isn't? Sorry if you didn't have to go through the Everfree but I had!"
"Why didn't you use a teleport horn?"
I feel a warmth in my cheeks, damn it! "I-I-I was too busy to think about it!"
"I know, busy or drinking?"
"How did you find out..."
"By God Damian, I've lived with you for years, I know when you were drunk, and pulling a ray of the sun is something only a drunk would do."
That's not a fight I'm proud of, but it was a great fight, I fought them all! And I put up with a lot, damn it, Miranda, if you weren't there maybe I would have won... Maybe...
"Damian... How are the burns?"
"Well, it doesn't hurt much, luckily I stopped before I didn't have a comeback." then I feel Miranda's arms enveloping me.
"Promise me you won't do that again."
"Honey, you know I---"
"Promise me!"
*sigh* "you know I'm horrible with promises, right?" her silence was my answer, "okay, I promise, now you're going to let me go or is it that difficult?"
*cof cof* "am I in the way of something?"
"Hi?" there at the entrance was Luna and... That unicorn I hadn't killed, man, I got so many questions for her.
I have so many questions! Why are you hugging each other? Is this a human habit? A mannerism? * blush * were they...
"Please, can you join us?"
"Has the interrogation started? Wrong pony, I think Cadence will do the job better."
"I need the Crystal Heart."
The heart? I think he's with Cadence... Where's Cadence? She's supposed to find us here.
"Can I know why?"
"Clothes, are my clothes inside, or do you prefer us to stink?"
Thanks to Celestia! I thinked this stench was something I was going to have to put up with, I feel a weight coming off my shoulders.
"We can see that, now please join us."
They look at each other for a while, Damian was reluctant, the look he gave Miranda said many things, one of which was that he didn't want to go with us.
"Can you give us a minute?"
"A minute, I'll be counting."
Luna closes the door and looks at the guards in the hall.
"Where is this Oak Shield? He was supposed to be here."
"Captain Oak Shield? He's on a diplomatic mission to the Federation, Princess Luna, are you okay princess?
"I... Weird, I have to talk to my sister later, now these two..."
"I know! So many things to ask! What will his world be like?" I'm already shaking with anxiety! I hardly slept at night because I was preparing the questions.
The door opens, there they were, next to each other, but Damian had a slap mark on his right cheek... What?
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
We’re almost there, a few more steps to go and we’ll be starting the questions! "Princess, can I talk to... Princess Sparkle's student..."
"Hmm? The interrogation room is just around the corner, can't you wait?"
"It's personal, private so to speak."
What will it be? Hmmmm... I see no reason not to allow it, I mean, what can go wrong? She has two magic inhibitors, if I'm not mistaken Discord cast a spell on them, but I don't feel anything coming from them... Is the spell in disguise?
"Go ahead princess! Me and Miranda will already accompany you!"
Luna stares at me for a few seconds, looks at Miranda who was smiling, Damian, Damian was looking at the stained glass.
"Be quick and don't make me send guards to get you."
Smiled cheerfully! Miranda is the calmer of the two, friendly and very collaborative, when I see Luna turn and disappear in the hall, I feel a claw around my neck! I don't feel the floor and her pushes me against the wall!
"Who are you?"
"I-I- what? Mirand--"
"Shut up, I know you're using an illusion, so I won't repeat myself... Who are you ?!"
"I-I- Shi-ning Spark-kle!"
"Do not lie!"
How does she know ?! By Faust what I do! How did she find out? If she finds out I'm the princess... She can tell Damian! What do I do! She's squeezing my neck!
"I'm running out of patience..."
"T-TWILIGHT SPARKLE !!!"
I saw a little surprise in her eyes and I feel the squeeze coming off, AIR! I never thought the air would be so good! I cough a few times before looking at her... She was different, she no longer looked like the sympathetic sapphire dragon, her eyes did not sketch life or emotions, just absolute concentration, as if thinking, she looked... Like Damian in that aspect.
"Undo the spell, now!"
"I-I can't! If Damian sees it!"
"Undo and redo the spell, I want to see the truth, now!"
I wave and undo the spell, I feel my wings turning, no longer in the spell's camouflage, my color changing and my mane growing slightly and staying with my hairstyle, when I finish I look at her, she is analyzing me, and in a matter of seconds she wave, I redo the spell, I have to be quick! If Damian sees it I will ruin the whole project!
"Why?"
"I... I couldn't get close to him without this, please don't tell him!"
"Of course, I'm not going to tell, he'll have an attack if he finds out you were so close to him."
"Thanks to Celestia, thanks--"
"Just one thing, he is terrified of you, but if he finds out that you cheated him, you are a dead pony, understand?"
I nod as fast as I can, thanks Pink for teaching me that!
"Are you okay?"
A solar guard was looking at us, I think I was short of breath, the mane disheveled and sweating and the dragon looking at me with a deadly look, that was not a good view.
"Y-yes, I just ran out of air, come on Miranda?"
"Yes, let's go."
But before... "How did you find out?" she just points to her eye... What does that mean? I have to find out.
Twilight Sparkle, so it was her, I was bothered by that unicorn since I first saw him, it was clear that it was an illusion, but whose? Of Equestrian? The Federation? Maybe it could be a novice changeling trying to infiltrate, now the princess of friendship itself? It never crossed my mind, seriously, if Damian finds out, he’s going to blow up half the castle, more specifically the half she’s in, if there weren’t those damn inhibitors, I felt something when I lifted her up, it looked like a shock, but it was too weak for be it, something was activated in these necklaces, I can't say what it was, I hate chaos magic, Discord put his finger on it, my ass was only Luna who did it, Luna doesn't know how to use chaos magic, and that shock was it.
I've seen worse interrogation rooms, interrogation rooms... Is this a joke? We are in a gigantic room with a few tables, a room that I would say is a kitchen and has a pool there! A POOL! Damian shares my surprise; he actually looks more surprised than usual.
"I have to admit, this is the friendliest interrogation room I've ever seen, I don't know, it seems strange."
"What did you expect?"
"I don't know, a gray concrete room with a table and two chairs, if you were going to torture us, some chains, yeah, definitely chains. Damian is terrified of chains."
"MIRANDA!"
"I see, we can provide that."
"I'm not complaining, I actually liked it." I walk towards the pool, hmmm I can already feel, the cold water surrounding my body, I haven't had a bath in a while, I need this, they say something but I ignore it, now I want a bath.
The pool was very full, Damian is here, so I'm going to take a shower with clothes on, I throw myself in the pool, divine, nothing better to liven up the mood than a bath...
"M-Miranda! This is no time for that!"
"I don't care, ask me, I'll answer."
Ahhhhh... It's divine, you don't know what a bath is when you don't clean yourself for days and throw yourself into a pool or bathtub, it's... Incredible.
They are sitting on the chairs "Damian! I don't have any more clothes, you better bargain for some!"
"Ok, but only if you call me daddy!"
"No fucking way this gonna happen."
"Then you will be without clothes."
"Are you sure? Watch out, that I'll take off my clothes and walk around town!"
His look is incredible! "Damn, ok but don't expect very good clothes."
"I love you too! And I'm hungry too, get something to eat"
He mutters something, whatever, I smile and close my eyes, now it's time to relax.
Heavens give me patience with these two, one looks like a teenager and the other is a walking bomb, even with the magic inhibitors I have to act carefully, and just like Twilight, I have to have a private conversation with Miranda, now it's not time, but this conversation will take place, wait little dragon, your time will come.
"So? How does it work? Do I talk and you cry or something? Why am I going to shorten things already... I... I'm going to try ok? I'm going to try to start over..." Miranda has both thumbs up and with a smile towards Damian, I think this was her idea.
"Hmm hi? Is this the right room? Am I not bothering you?"
Ahh, Fluttershy, just who we needed to deal with an unknown species, "come on, I was waiting for you Fluttershy." Damian looks pale, Miranda stops slapping the water and looks in our direction... Something tells me that I... Made a mistake? Weird, let's see what this is going to do, damn my snout is hurting already.
"Hmm hi, I am, hmm Fluttershy, and are you Damian?"
"I-I... Hello, I'm Damian Spencer." he was different, he didn’t look her in the eye and kept moving his hands, I don’t really know what this gesture means, but something tells me... Nervousness.
"Well, since we're all here, we can start asking questions."
"Questions? For what questions? What is the use of? Did you not hear Cadence? The past is in the past, let's leave it behind." he kept looking at Fluttershy, stranger, I thought his phobia came from Twilight Sparkle... Hmm I have to find out that.
"Well, I believe that you can't try to fix the present and prepare for the future without dealing with the past, that's why this section of questions."
"Really? Are you going to teach me about the past? Eternal night doesn't remind you of anything?" cursed hairless monkey! I blush slightly, so he knows that? Ok Luna, let's assume he's a historian and knows more about your country than you do, let's play his game.
"That's correct Damian, I am not the best example of a pony that has dealt with the past, but I am a very good example of what can happen if you don't take this issue seriously, so please answer the questions of Shining Sparkle and Miss Flut. -- - "
"Wait... Your name is Shining Sparkle? Like, is that your name? You are a student of Sparkle, who in turn is sister of Shining Armor... Are you the result of incest or something?"
Laughed internally while I see... Shining Sparkle, blushing fiercely, I tried to warn her that he might be suspicious of the name, but no one listens to the alicorn with his head in the past right?
"N-n-no! I- my mentor would never do that! She loves her brother only as a brother! And yes that's my name!"
"This universe, sometimes I think he hates me, Shining Sparkle... Seriously... " He shakes his head in complete denial
"Hmm hi, my name is Fluttershy and I would like to ask a question, if that doesn't bother you of course." it looks like Miss Fluttershy will be the first one then, Damian... Is he smiling? Strange behaviors around Fluttershy, warning the other princesses may be necessary.
"S-say it, send the question,"
"Hmmm let me see..." he starts to fiddle with some bags and parchments that she put on the table, when she put all that there?
"What do you like to eat most?"
"Ahhhmmmm... Next."
"Diet?"
"Everything that is not mineral or poisonous."
"Omnivorous?"
"Yea."
"Average life expectancy of the species and your age."
"About ninety years old, I'm thirty-five."
Wow, Fluttershy doesn't look, shy, she actually looks very serious with the questions.
"Species fertility period?"
"My God what is that? Are you also writing a book?"
"I’m sorry, I didn’t want to hit a delicate spot!"
"I think it's your turn Shining, ask a question, ONE question."
I look at Twilight just to... Where are these mares taking so many scrolls from? The table is already full of scrolls!
"Hmmm... Is magic very strong in humans or are you a separate case?"
He laughs... He laughs very strangely, "no, humans are not able to use or create magic."
Twilight seems ready for another question but she contains herself, well, now it's my turn! I put both hooves on the table, spread my wings, Miranda doesn't seem to like it, she's ready to leave the pool and he gives me a confused look "WOULD YOU ACCEPT A REMATCH!?!?!?"
"..."
"..."
"..."
"YOU DON'T ACCEPT ?!"
Miranda starts laughing wildly in the pool and Damian repeats action on the table, even hitting it a few times, Fluttershy looks confused and Twilight is blushing? Is she sick?
"Why do you laugh at me? Do you deny my challenge?"
"N-no princess, * laughs * is that I expected more than a rematch, but if you want to lose so much again, I accepted * laughs * rematch... Jesus those ponies."
How dare he! Does he believe he can beat me in a fair fight? We will see...
"..."
"Hmm Fluttershy? It's your turn."
"Sorry! I was thinking, let me see... Hmmm natural predator?"
He laughed a little "other humans."
"For Faust! You guys eat each other!"
"What? No, we just have a bad habit of killing ourselves, you know?"
"Ahmmm... Ok..." were two questions, but I won't say anything, let's say it was a complement, she is already writing something on parchments, notes, Twilight on the other hand is writing questions instead of answers... This mare.
"Ok ... Hmmm. If humans can't do magic... How can you do it?"
Interesting question, but I don't know if I would ask this or how he learned, yes, I think that will be my question...
He... Looks serious, doesn't even seem bothered by Fluttershy's presence, once again he starts to move his hands.
"Well... I will answer your question with another question, how do you do magic? How do you manage to... You know, create magic."
"How? We shape mana, refine and create spells and enchantments, isn't that what you do?"
"Look, well... Wrong question, what allows you to do magic, you know, you don't have a body part for that? And I'm not talking about the horn or wings."
"Do you mean the mana core?"
"THAT! I had forgotten the name, so Sparkle number two, what if someone doesn't have a mana core?"
"Well... She couldn't control mana accurately, to be honest, she couldn't have mana, she would exhale mana faster than the body absorbs from the environment, in a year or two the pony wouldn't have a drop of magic in it. "
"EXACT! That is the question, everything in this world has a core, some are weak like those of earth ponies, others stronger like unicorns, and there are massive ones, which are those of alicorn, the point is that, humans do not have this mana core, don't have 'mana' in our world, so we don't need that organ. "
"But... You controlled the sun! You pulled a ray of it!"
"Man, the news is running, well, I already answered the question, next."
"No, the question was why can you create magic!"
This is escalating very fast, I take one of the pens that were on the table and start to write down some important points, a world without mana? How does this world work?
Damian... Damian sighs, it's a heavy sigh, he points to his chest, "Twil-- Sparkle, the Sparkle of my world wanted to try something, one thing led to another and now I have a core of mana, satisfied? "
Sensitive subject, I have to measure my words, making him uncomfortable is not good for conversation.
"You know I'm here too, right? You can ask me!"
Of course! A question for her would be a good way to hide this issue, but which one? Twilight seems lost in thought and is murmuring the word artificial core.
"Well, Miranda, right? Tell me, since you're Damian's daughter, tell me, how was your... Conception."
She blushes slightly, "I didn't know princesses liked these matters, well see, when dragon mom and dragon dad love each other very much--"
"You understand the question, answer it."
"Sorry, I don't remember."
"Stop straying from the question!"
"Soo ask a question correctly."
Damn it! You will see, I will stop curiosity, let's go to the key questions then.
"What are you? A sapphire dragon? I don't believe it."
"You too? Well, am I a sapphire dragon! Am I not Damian?"
"Your mother told me that, it wouldn't be the first time that a woman has lied to me, but that's what she said... HEY! What do you mean she's not a sapphire dragon! What is the big idea!"
"She undid one of my best spells, and then broke one of the magic inhibitors that are on her wrists, not to mention that the other was badly damaged as well, there is no way a seven-year-old sapphire dragon can do that."
"Well my dear, I saw her hatch, so yes, she is a sapphire dragon, next question."
"This does not e--"
"It's over, next question."
Damn that hairless monkey, I will discover this secret of you, will my sister have already noticed? I have to see it too, Faust, I have to see many things.
"Ok Damian... Fluttershy?"
She is finishing writing something, this mare is very focused on the things that matter, this is good, I hope she has written something important about this incident, something I didn’t see, because, well, Twilight is busy listening and not wrote nothing! Anything! I'm as surprised as anypony would be.
"Damian... What is the family structure like for your species? Is it in packs? Couples?"
"What is that? An animal planet show?"
"Sorry I didn't mean to offend!"
"It was nothing, don't worry, but answering the question... Usually in couples, some places in the world we live in... Packs? It's not the right word but it will do."
"Why?" one question Fluttershy! One!
"Usually by religion."
It seems that that word took Twilight out of its wake, her eyes blinked as she took a book out of her bag, WHEN SHE GOT THAT BAG!
"Is this a religious book? How many religions are there in your world?"
"Two questions, but ok, yes, this one is the holy bible, and about numbers? Several, go over a hundred Easily."
"A HUNDRED?! How do you deal with that?"
He laughs, "well, usually war and mass genocide."
Faust... What barbarity, that explains the combat proficiency he has, a worthy opponent finally!
Well, what question should I ask? Will it have already warmed up and should we start with the key questions? Maybe one more round and we start with the real questions, ok "what ---"
"How long is the gestation of a human female? * blink * princess sorry! I thought you asked before!"
"No, it's okay Fluttershy."
"Hmm nine months, sometimes it lasts longer, sometimes less, look, are you really writing a book?"
"Sorry, I will stop with questions like that."
"No problem, it's just weird to answer, that's all."
"Damian... You... It doesn't count as a question but... You said you didn't have a magic core, right?"
"Yea."
"So... How? How did you control the sun ?! How can you control all this! A being without mana was not even supposed to be possible, then you go and control the sun itself!"
He... Is thinking, thinking too much, maybe he will lie.
"I answer that." I look at the pool, Miranda is coming out of it still completely wet, Damian also looks but blushes instantly and looks away.
"Miranda! Where are your underwear!"
"Hmm?" she looks at her body "I don’t think I’m using it, that itches, and I was going to fight... Now Damian, it's bath time!"
She takes him by the shoulder and throws him in the pool... How strong is she?
"Well, princess" she faces Twilight... Wait, did she find out? "What happens when you eat a mana core?"
"W-what? What a horrible idea!"
She sighs, I think she explained this several times, I don't know, she gave that impression.
"Hypothetically, of course, what happens?"
"Well... Hypothetically, the natural magic of your body would conflict with the ingested mana, it can cause nausea and vomiting, in some cases, if the mana core is very strong, like that of an ancient dragon you may be overloaded and pass out."
"What if... Hypothetically, you don't have any natural magic in your body?"
"Well... The body would not reject mana..."
"Add an artificial mana core, one that doesn't have a clear signature and..."
"You would have a being that can ingest mana core and the body would never reject it, every core it eats makes it stronger and... BY CELESTIA IS HE THIS!?!?"
"Congratulations! You found out!"
By Faust... How is that necklace containing it? He... He is... For Faust and the four great beings... He... He is a monster! The amount of mana he has... Like ... Discord... Me and Celestia... How he hides so much mana! Maybe... Maybe he doesn't...
"You... Whose you consumed the mana core?"
He smiles, a smile that sent a chill down my spine, I'm sweating, when I let myself be shaken so easily ?! By Faust, let it be a lie.
"Everyone, after I dealt with" he look at Fluttershy "my six main targets I went after the big fish, and look, I found out because of some guards that I could consume mana core and bang! I started eating, what happened Luna? Looks pale, do you want names? Discord, Celestia, Sombra, Starswirl, Cadence, Shining Armor, Blueblood, you, Tirek, Trixie, Torch, Ember and the list goes on, do you want me to continue? "
I'm shaking, how... How a body can handle so much mana! He was supposed to be burning! It is simply impossible! There is no way to... Faust gives me strength...
"W-well, Damian... I..."
"No princess, now it's time for Fluttershy to speak." how can he be so calm! He was supposed to be screaming in pain, but he stands there, in the pool looking at us! He, heaven, I prepare a spell that Discord told me, we will need him full time here, because if he thinks about becoming violent... Faust protect us.
Fluttershy was, in shock, the look she was giving him... Many consider her a naive and silly mare, she showed the opposite before and now, she realized what he means.
"You... Who were your top six targets?"
"I-I... Another question."
"No! Answer the question! I want to know, I have a right to know!" wow, I didn't know she could raise her voice like that, especially for him and... HE LOOKS AFRAID! Why ?! He is the most powerful thing there is and he is afraid of that mare! This is something very important.
"I-I don't know if you want to know."
"Believe me I want to."
"I... Look Fluttershy I was angry, if I could change some things I would change, I wouldn't have hurt Rarity so much, I wouldn't have burned the barn... I wouldn't have touched a wire on your mane... Sorry Fluttershy... You know, six targets, six elements, do the sum there. "
"I want to hear it from you." Is this the timid and fearful mare that carries the element of kindness? Heaven.
"Y-you, I killed you! I killed all your friends! Is that what you wanted me to say? Are you happy now!?"
Her look... Hesitated, for a second, she hesitated, was that the answer she expected?
"Why?"
Damian laughs "don't fuck with me."
"WHY! WHY YOU DONE THIS ALL!"
He was shaking! He even hid in the pool, just his head exposed, heavens, I hope I never step on this mare's hoof.
"Again this? Look at Fluttershy... Do you want to know what made me do all that? What made me go crazy? What made me abandon everything? Is this? This questioning was all done for this question right? Why?! Why I killed them all! You know what, I'm going to tell. " He rises and leaves the pool, anger emanating from his eyes, please necklace work!
He takes a chair and puts it in front the table and sits on it, he breathes heavily, "Miranda, if you want to leave the time is now."
"As if I was going to leave, this is the story I have been waiting for my whole life."
"Shining, Fluttershy, if you want to leave..."
"I'm not leaving here."
"My master... She is the cause of this, right? I... I can't go out; I have to listen."
He smiles, it is not like before, it is not a smile that exudes joy, fear, nervousness or confidence, it is the smile that is used to remember sad memories. "Everything started when I ended up in a dungeon..."

Torture, hate, death and a little friendship
Memories of the past: ...Of how I went through hell...
Author's Note
I think it's important to warn that this chapter can be a little strong, I don't consider it very strong since, tag M + gore and death, but there may be people who consider it violent.
Memories of the past: ...Of how I went through hell...
Damn, shit, FUCK! What did I do! WHY! GOD WHY! I just wanted to go home! I feel tears spilling into my eyes, I look around, a simple cell, a bed attached to the wall, a toilet and a table with a book on top... It's the Bible! I grab her, tears already streaming down my eyes, "g-god... Please help me!" help... What I did... I press the book against my head "please hear me! Don't leave me here... Please..." * Clack * the doors are opening! I turned around... There was Celestia and a unicorn that had a brown fur and a blue mane, he had a white coat...
"Damian?"
I wipe my tears "C-Celestia, please excuse me, I really don't know what I did, please send me home... I beg you."
She coughs sometimes "I... Damian Spencer, you were tried by the high judges of Equestria and found guilty of the crimes of: creating weapons or spells of mass destruction, genocide towards a people for ethnic or religious reasons, crimes hateful against existence, such as war crimes or ethnic extinction through rape, by blows from bloody states that have generated countless years of pain and fear for sentient beings like humans, for the acts of systematically raising animals with doubtful wisdom in captivity for food or sports, for crimes against knowledge such as burning large libraries or sacred temples, for Crusades, a war justified in religious differences that brought nothing but poverty and misery to countless people, for the extermination of native peoples who lived in peace with nature , these beings who only wanted to be happy, were killed or sold as slaves, slavery, there is also the crime of encourage slavery by buying slaves or even capturing them..."
What... What, I... I didn't understand... What...
"Your punishment was: from now on, the individual known as Damian Spencer, Human, twenty eight years old, is deprived of rights such as the right to be, the right to live, the right to die, the right to food, health and education, the right to call oneself equestrian or any other citizenship that exists or will exist. "
What... I... I really... "Princess? I... I don't understand..."
Her horn shines and I feel an extraordinary pain in my chest, I cry out in agony as I feel a scratch cutting through my chest, when the pains gone, I'm already on my knees, tears streaming down like rivers, while a five was written on my chest... God...
"From now on you will be known as individual five, name can still be changed if your jailer wish, your sentence was stipulated in 1342 years without parole, no time off or breaks except on weekends for religious reasons, you will start to pay for your crimes by helping the kingdom of Equestria to win the Equine-Griffin war through any means requested by the jailer, who will be the physician and surgeon Silk Touch. "
I... God what...
She says something to the doctor, I don't understand, god... Help... Please help me... This has... It has to be a dream... Yes... I'm delusional with anxiety...
"After this explanation, I withdraw me and leave you with your personal doctor who will be responsible for your wellbeing, he has high qualifications in several aspects and was a personal student trained by myself, he will ensure that you comply and do all the required functions. For me or for the kingdom of Equestria... That's it, Damian Spencer, that Faust, Markal, Reficul, Liria and Samol have pity on your soul today until the day your punishment ends. "
With a white sparkle she disappears... I... What? The unicorn, which until now was surrounded by a white aura, seems to perceive my presence while the aura fades. "Hi? Me... Aren't you Damian? The human?"
"Y-y-yes!"
"Strange, I should find test object number five... Man, shouldn't you have already gone to your world?"
"Y-yes! I have... My God I... This has to be a dream, where's Luna !?" he laughs a little while he levitates a clipboard and starts to read, "don't worry, I'll let the princesses know you're here and you can go home... Do you know where this is?" he stops reading.
"II don't know, it's... A dungeon..."
"These are the secret cell blocks! But specifically this one is 550!" he looked almost like a boy who got his first car! Then he notices my chest, a number five engraved on it, god how it hurt, it looked like someone was using a shard of glass to write. "I ahmm..." he turns the papers over, looking frantically.
"Will you help me? I have to get out of here! This must be a mistake I... Or a dream... Man I just want to go home!"
"I... I..." he coughs as he fixes his posture and voice "I am the physician and surgeon Silk Touch and from now on I will be your jailer, judge, jury and... Executioner? Yes, me... "He stares at me, what? Judge? "Pleasure, I hope that our tests and surveys are to your liking and that you say nothing but the truth."
"I-I'll help! If you help me, I'll help you! Just tell the princesses! I think... I think there was a mistake."
"Sorry, me, I'm just doing my job you know?"
"Y-Yes, I understand! Look, I worked in business, sometimes I had to be an asshole but it was just work! I was being a professional! Now please help me!" it looks like weights were lifted off his shoulders, a sigh of relief came out of his lips.
"T-Thank you, I'm glad you understand, it really helps." he turns and walks toward the exit, "please follow me."
You don't have to ask twice! My pockets? The wallet is here! I take the Bible and kiss it, Thanks god, thanks.
We walked a little, he looks nervous, Jesus he's sweating! "This is where we are going to... Work." it was a big room, easily ten meters by ten meters, it had several tables with bottles and... Syringes on top of them, it had some saws and knives on the wall too, and in the center there was a stretcher, what will happen...
"Please sit on the stretcher."
"I-I... I don't think so, look, I have to see the princesses."
He sighs, "you know I just work here right?"
"Y-yes! Look, I'll help you after I leave... Here, ok?"
"Sorry." his horn glows and I feel a huge pain in my chest "sorry, I just work here."
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
I wake up... The ceiling is gray, I look to the side, a table with the Bible on top, I am in a very hard wooden bed, there is a toilet in the corner... I feel tears forming... That was real... No... It wasn't a dream... Jesus... That hurt... I look to my arms, they are... Well, it doesn't seem to have any scars... I... I never thought that I was going to see my bone that way...
I get up and pick up the Bible, come on... M-Maria says that in situations like this you have to lean on something... Please... God, I... Help, open the book and start reading some parts, please, let this be a dream, be a joke, be a big prank, a big one, DAMN! I'm already crying!
* Clack *
The door opened, there was that unicorn... "Damian, get up and follow me."
"What time is it?"
"I'm not allowed to say that, please, come don't make me force you."
Maybe I can get past him, he looks like an ordinary doctor, he doesn’t look like a soldier, I rise and walk towards him, when I’m almost there he turns around and starts playing with the papers "Damian, how was it? I need sincere answers to not disturb the data. "
I was almost there, I needed to catch him, but that phrase "YOU CUT MY ARM IN TWO! WHAT DO YOU THINK I FEEL? TICKLE ?!"
"Sorry, but please answer honestly, so you help us bot--"
I caught him! I hold him by the neck with one arm while with the other I hold his chest!
"Damian!"
I squeeze his neck as I look through the halls, what do I do now? * ZAP * that pain again! I release it immediately while the symbol on my chest glows "AAAARRRGGHHHHHHHHH!!!"
Stopped, I'm already on the ground... This one was much stronger than the last one... I think... I think I pissed myself... Jesus...
"D-Damian... Don't do this please, the symbol will hurt you unnecessarily... And" * laughs * "when attacking a unicorn, aim at the horn... He he... He."
Fuck, fuck this shit, I want to go home... I... I want to see my daughter... I... Please god get me out of here...
"Damian, get up, I don't want to have to force you again."
"FUCK YOU! FUCK YOU!"
* ZAP * once again this hellish pain passes through my body, I feel... I feel my body moving... But I... Am not doing anything!
"Don't you remember? You lost your right to be... Sorry Damian, now follow me."
It is an indescribable sensation, MY body moves without I wanting to, I want to throw myself on the floor but he does not respond, he just keeps walking, it is almost like a reflex... But it is a horrible sensation! Not having control of my own body is... I don't want to cry again, damn it...
"Please don't take me there..."
He stops and turns to me, "look Damian, this is not cool for me too, I thought object five was... I don't know, a corpse? Maybe or magical plant or artifact, not... You! Look, for every contribution you make... Maybe I can reduce your sentence... Don't you remember? I'm your judge and jury. "
"Then let me go! I didn't do anything!"
"Unfortunately, I can only judge the future, the decision has been decided, so Damian, I will undo the spell... Follow me."
We are here... Again in this room... My god that stretcher! He trapped me in it... And... And... Jesus I have to get out of here!
"Lie down on the stretcher please."
He is stirring in an ordinary shiny liquid bottle, my god that seems so wrong.
"Damian, don't make me repeat myself, please sit on the stretcher now."
I can already feel tears forming, my eyes hurt... They hurt from crying so much, my God, he turns and stares at me for a few seconds, it was enough stimulus for me to sit on the stretcher... This... Jesus it's clean, white like Celestia... It's not red anymore... I don't want this to happen again...
"Damian lie down and don't move." he's coming with a fucking battery on his side being levitated, a fucking car battery! I rise immediately!
"W-what are you going to do?"
"Tests."
"I... What tests..."
"An invention has some problems; I was sent to test it with you since your body has unique characteristics like interfering with magic."
"Y-y-you're not going to turn on this thing in me?!"
"Damian, please lie down."
"N-no I--" * ZAP * again... This is getting stronger... Please stop...
"It will be quick Damian, today we only have this test and a standard test and you can go to the cell." he did it, I see two giant 'nails' connected to the battery, he will... My god... He will use...
"Calm down Damian... I..." he looks around before levitating a syringe with a blue liquid inside.
"No, please!"
I try to move but the straps on the stretcher are very tight, he punctures me with that and... And I feel calm... So calm... It is difficult to... Strange, it seems that something has passed me by, it looks like a wind breeze, what was that? I look at him and he's writing on his clipboard, so he takes it... I don't know, it looks like a knife... He starts rubbing it on my arm and... I don't feel anything, in fact it tickles, but... What scares me is that he is literally shaving my arm... Like a cheese... Why am I not screaming? My god it already arrived on the bone! Wh ----
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
I wake up... Jesus... No... Again... The gray ceiling... I rise, the Bible is there, on the corner table... Jesus I...
* Clack *
"NO, PLEASE NO!" I... I never screamed like that... I... My god... I...
"Calm down, Damian, today is Saturday, it's your break, I just came to... Talk." he levitates a chair and places it in the middle of the cell, and of course closes the door.
"What-what do you want?" he throws some papers on my bed, I lie down on the bed and look at the papers... Individual Damian Spencer does not exist, invalid request... "What... Is that?"
"Your order, don't you remember?"
"I... Don't I exist?"
"No, you lost the fundamental rights to be... You in the roles... You are no different than a broom, sorry."
I won't cry... I can't... I... Jesus... "What did I do?"
"I don't know, I just... I just follow orders... But you should have heard your pity, didn't you? Celestia didn't tell you?"
"She told me..."
"Do you want me to get a copy of the reasons?"
"No... I want to get out of here." he smiles at me, that motherfucker smiles at me! I want... I want to end him!
"Look, if it is going to help you, you already removed one month from your sentence since you helped with the battery... Yay..."
He just... I... I want... I don't know what I want...
"Damian... Look, I can't give you that anesthetic, you know, he influences the tests, they already asked for another test with the battery, you'll have to do it without anesthesia and... I can't do anything about it... Sorry..."
No... That was... Now I won't be able... I'm crying... I'm crying like a child, I cry so much I can hardly breathe, I'm sobbing, god I want to get out of here.
I feel... I feel a hoof around me, he is hugging me... He... I have never hugged anyone so strong in my life, I... I want help, please don't let me... No... Don't leave me alone I...
"Let's go through this together Damian, ok? I can give you anesthesia once a week, two days off, but for four days... You will have to endure it..."
"Why... Why are you helping me? Wasn't it just work?"
"Why do I feel sorry for you Damian, for Faust, I grated your arm to the bone yesterday, how do you think I'm feeling about that?"
"T-that... Was that a standard test?"
He sighs "yes... Look Damian, I don't do the tests," he lets me go, no! Do not leave me! "I just apply them."
"W-what time is it?"
He laughs lightly before looking at the exit, after seeing what he wants he looks at me, "noon, when you wake up it will always be noon, this is how the spell works."
"I... I want to go home..."
"I'm sorry Damian... Maybe when your sentence is over--"
"Over? It's over a thousand years... I'll be dust before that... And taking a month every two days..."
"No, it is a month for each medium aid provided, mind you, the aid may be minimal and withdraw... One day... It depends."
It doesn't matter... In the end I die before I can go home... I...
"Can you give me that knife?" I saw it, was it on his side, maybe for defense? It was not well hidden to be that... Maybe for the tests.
"Damian, I can't, what do you want?"
"I... I want to mark the wall, three days have passed, so, you know, I think this... I don't know man; can you give me the knife?"
He rises and uses the knife to make three scratches on the wall, "ready, I'll do it for you, every day when you wake up there will be a risk there, ok?"
"OK..."
"Why? Why these risks?"
"For, I don't know, when I wake up to know that a day has passed... I think that's it."
He takes two books from his bag and levitates in front of me "the paths of the five Celestial beings, to give strength of spirit and a story to entertain the mind, I don't particularly like this chapter, but you have to see the first before the second right?"
A book to strengthen the spirit? I take it, it has five figures in it, all completely black, this is a Bible, their Bible, I throw it away, "I already have a book to strengthen the spirit." I say as I point to the book on my desk, now this one... Gary hoof and the philosopher's stone... I... Laugh... Jesus how can I laugh in a situation like this... Gary hoof... "Thanks, this... Will help."
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
I wake up, get up and look at the wall, five risks, today the tests start again... I look at the door, nobody, I get up and walk towards the table, it's a very small table, my chair is basically the floor, I sit down and open the Bible, please God, feel sorry for your follower, keep my spirit strong, and don't leave me...
After reading some parts of the bible I close it and put it back on the table, look at the other book, I finished it last night, I think I will ask for the sequence.
I have been here for a few minutes, I am already standing, clean and looking at the cell door, there was my... Jailer, the doctor.
"Hi Damian... Today we... Start over, are you ready?"
"No."
"I know, nopony can be ready for this, I hope you used the extra minutes well."
"Yea."
He opens the door and I follow him, again this corridor, again that stretcher... I don't want to sit on it... Today... He said that the anesthesia will be on Wednesdays... I...
"Damian, lie down please."
"Doctor... Can't we skip today's tests? Please."
"I can't, Damian, I have to deliver results, and your willingness not to collaborate is not a valid reason for missing the results."
I lie down, my heart is already beating insanely, it almost hurts, "what will it be today?"
"Collecting skin and blood, how much can a human being lose blood?"
"Two liters already puts me in a critical frame, I think one and a half?" Why am I telling that?
"I understand." he takes it, my god looks like a syringe but it's giant, that is bigger than my arm... And there it was, that knife he used on me on Friday... He will grate my arm again...
"I know it won't help... But I'm just going to take the top part of the skin, I'm not going to the bone." it doesn't help.
"Please Damian, keep calm." his look, without emotions, he... It's just his job, he only works here, I think that's what he means.
The ties are attached to my arms and legs, a chain covers my chest... It's going to start... He puts the knife against my arm, "Damian... I'm going to go slow ok?" I wave frantically!
So I feel, god how it hurts, it’s similar to a cat’s lick, but much stronger, you can feel it scraping pieces of skin off, I scream, I scream in an extraordinary anguish and while I struggle in an attempt to break the strips, "STOP! PLEASE STOP!"
He... He really stops, he looks at the knife and levitates some pieces of skin into a glass, "I... I can do it fast too; it will be faster... But..."
"DO IT!"
"OK..."
"AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHH !!!"
It's over... It's over... I look at the clock on the wall he has a black aura, I can't see the time "it was an hour and a half."
I wave, I look at my arms... My god they are raw, I can see the muscles and some veins... My god... I already feel tears forming.
"Now for blood collection..."
No...
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
I wake up, I get up, I look at my leg, it... It is whole... My god... I... I hate magic... The wall, thirteen risks... One more day... I look at Gary's books... Seriously... Does it end the same? Laughed internally... How can I laugh in a situation like this? HOW!? MY LEG WAS CUT IN SEVERAL PART YESTERDAY! HOW!? I'm already crying... Why god... I look at the bible... God... I take a deep breath and kneel down, close my hands and close my eyes.
"Our Father in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name,
Your kingdom come,
Your will be done,
On earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
And forgive us our debts,
As we also have forgiven our ----
Our ---
Our debtors. "
"Damian, it's time, please."
I sigh, get up and leave the cell, but first I look at the Bible, "how much time is there, doctor?"
"You already took two months out... Damian... Today will be the battery test..."
"OK..."
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
I wake up, the ceiling is not completely gray, at one time Silk Touch gave me some pens and I made a point of writing some things on the ceiling, personally that one is the one that most cheers me up: 'Papai! Você prometeu me levar na minha formatura! Não se atrase!' Mia... Dad is tired... I get up and look at the table, it contained several books, yes, Gary Hoof has the same ending, although he has one or two changes it is basically the same story... I look at the wall , if I'm not mistaken there are forty-nine risks, I start counting, yes, forty-nine, forty-nine risks, I sigh and walk towards the sink and wash my face, thanks Silk Touch, he helped me, he got me books, a sink, chair, a mattress, he is... He is a nice guy... After cleaning me I see the food, a fish and rice, it is good to eat something, before I was fed while unconscious... I-I have this habit... I think it's a blessing, the tests are getting more brutal and I tend to pass out from pain, it's good, it makes everything end in a second, the problem is the pain needed for... This, after eating I go to a bookshelf on the wall, there was one book, I take it and read the cover 'Holy Bible' I open it and start reading... Please... Help me god... Don't abandon me in this hell... But no matter how much I cry... How much I beg... Nothing happens... And things only get worse... With a sigh I keep the Bible in its place.
* Clack *
He is there, "hi Silk, what we have for today..."
"Damian, we have a problem, they sent me a... Student, we are not alone anymore."
"Alone? I thought the guards in the halls counted."
"They couldn't interfere with the tests, she can."
"She? Who is she?"
"It's me... Hello Damian..."
It's... It's Twilight! Thanks God! She is... MUST BE HER! I walk to her "T-Twilight! HOW MUCH TIME! YOU HAVE TO HELP ME! LOOK, YOU ARE A PRINCESS, RIGHT !? CANNOT DO ANYTHING TO HELP ME? PLEASE TWILIGHT! HELP ME!!!"
She... Looks uncomfortable, her ears go down, "Hi Damian, look... I can't do anything, your sentence has already been given, if Doctor Silk Touch can't do anything then I don't have any chance... "
What... No... This wasn't supposed to happen... She was supposed to get me out of here! She was supposed to get me out of this hell! She was supposed to send me home! She had to send me home... She... God... GOD!
I turn around and pick up the Bible, so many emotions... So many feelings... But one of them stood out... Anger... Anger stood out! I pick it up and scream with rage as I start to tear the pages, I scream all kinds of swearing that comes to my head, while I go crazy tearing up the book!
"D-Damian stop! This book has an invaluable cultural value!"
"FUCK YOU!" I split the book in two and throw a half on her, it would have been right if she hadn't used the only wing to protect her face.
I am still in this fury, destroying this pile of rubbish written on the paper, tearing and crumpling it, what matters is that it be destroyed, when I took the rest of it and I went to throw it in the toilet I feel... The seal activated, an extraordinary pain in the my chest, it was very strong... So strong that I... That I... * thump *
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------- // ------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
I wake up, I stand up, and I look at the wall, ninety-nine risks, I turn around and there is the doctor and the princess, she had a clear face of discomfort and disapproval, he had a small smile, the door opens and he takes the knife and reaches me, "thank you" I asked to be able to mark the hundredth day... Twilight denied it, but he is my jailer, not her.
I approach the wall, so many days... So many tortures... They are getting more intense since Twilight is here, she was sent to get results... I don't talk to the doctor anymore... Our conversations can cause a bond between him and me, which can interfere in his judgment, I no longer have the Saturday to rest and the anesthesia was destroyed because it changed the test results... I take the knife... It is heavy... it is sharp... I start to scratch the wall, it seemed easier to see than to do... When I finish, I move away from the wall... A hundred days... A hundred days... I close my eyes and breathe heavily, thank you doctor... With a precise movement I cut my throat, I feel a hot liquid seeping down my body, I hear Twilight and the doctor screams something... But it doesn't matter... It's over... It's finally over...
