Royal Vengeance
Truths and Revelations
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThis chapter was both rushed and not thought through. I had way to much food on my plate, not literally by the way, mainly school but hey, atleast the story continues and some light is shed on Dark's past. Now read it or I'll eat your babies!
Twilight walked into the castle only to be sent to the ground by somepony. "Twilight! Thank Celestia you're okay!" Rainbow said as she hugged her friend. Pinkie, Fluttershy, Rarity, and AJ walked up to Twilight and hugged her.
"Girls, I'm fine. Where is Princess Celestia?" Twilight asked as her teacher walked up to the group.
"Right here. I'm so glad that you're okay." Celestia said in a happy tone. Twilight smiled then remembered what she wanted to say.
"Princess Celestia, I'd like to talk to you about something." Twilight said. Celestia nodded and gestured for the mane 6 to follow her. They walked into the throne room.
"What is it that you wanted to talk to me about my faithfull student?" Celestia asked in her cheerfull tone. Twilight walked up to her teacher. She was abit nervous to talk to her about this but she took a deep breath.
"I want to know what you know about Dark Fury." Twilight said which stunned her friends and Celestia. Celestia looked at her then sighed.
"Why? Why would you want to know anything about that cold hearted monster? He nearly killed Colt." Rainbow Dash said.
"Twilight, follow me." Celestia said in a demanding tone. "Everypony else, stay here until we return." Celestia directed toward the other five ponies. They all looked at each other with confused looks as they looked at Twilight and Celestia. Celestia and Twilight walked into another room. "Now, what exactly do you want to know about Dark Fury?" Celestia asked in a serious tone.
"Well, everything. I want to know why he wants to destroy Equestria." Twilight said as her teacher locked the door to make sure nopony hears any of this.
"Where do I begin? When Equestria was first established and my sister and I were first put into rule, Equestria wasn't what you see today. It was a place where almost nopony would obey the law. There was murder, theft, etc. The royal gaurd couldn't handle them. Me and my sister called a meeting." Twilight sat on the nearest chair while she listened to her teacher. "The meeting stated that there must be Harmony in equestria, or as one of the ponies said, equilibrium. So we made a new branch of military. This branch would be the law enforcment and, at times of war, be used as soldiers on the frontlines. This branch was known as the "Clerics". They were led by one of the bravest soldiers that I have ever seen, Infinite Sky, who proved to be an outstanding leader and soldier. He, along with the Clerics, were able to bring equilibrium to Equestria." Celestia said.
"But what about Dark Fury?" Twilight asked. Celestia sighed and nodded.
"After Equestria was finally brought to peace, Infinite Sky and Me got engaged and, after a year, we gained a son. He was a unicorn with a blue coat and a golden mane. We agreed to name him "Bright Star". Life couldn't be any better." Twilight smiled. "Until one day, after ten years of peace and harmony, a pony broke one of the major laws of Equestria. The next day, infront of everypony, including my sister and Me, that pony was burned alive by two Cleric soldiers. Infinite Sky was down there aswell. He said 'This is what you'll recieve if any of the major laws are broken!'. A week after, another meeting was held, demanding that the Clerics be banished out of Equestria. My sister agreed but I was unsure, until I agreed aswell. After the meeting, Infinite Sky was gone, along with Bright Star." Celetia said while trying to hold back tears. "A month went by after The Clerics left. One of my gaurds told me that Infinite Sky was found but was killed, along with Bright Star. A year went by. Any other Clerics that were found were given a second chance to live in Equestria." Celestia said.
"That still doesn't answer anything princess." Twilight said.
"One of my gaurds told me that we lost three squads of Soldiers one day near the same location. I was getting worried until one of the gaurds from a squad ran into the throne room, bloodied up and barely alive. Before he was rushed to the infermary, he gave me this." Celestia said as she pulled a piece of paper out of a book and handed it to Twilight. Twilight opened it and read the letter aloud.
"Dear Celestia, do you really think your son is dead? Well, your right, Bright Star is dead. Burned into nothing but ash, but from his ashes, Dark Fury is born! I am coming for Equestria and you for what you did to my father. Prepare for revenge!" Twilight said as she looked at the letter. "It all makes sense now. He wants revenge for Infinite Sky's death." Twilight said. Celestia nodded as she looked out the window.
"If only he could see that after his death, I ordered the gaurds to give him a propper funeral. He's buried out in the Canterlot cemetary right now. Twilight, if you ever meet my son ever again, please, try to make him see the error of his ways." Celesta ordered. Twilight was slightly stunned by how Celestia knew that she met Dark but smiled.
"I promise." Twilight said as she headed for the door.
"By the way, everything that we talked about doesn't leave this room." Celestia said. Twilight nodded and unlocked the door and left leaving Celestia. "My love, what would you have done?" Celestia said as if talking to Infinite Sky.
Twilight walked back to her friends who were slightly worried about her. "Twi, what in the hay happened in that cave that you fell in?" Applejack asked.
"Nothing. Where is Colt by the way?" Twilight asked.
"He's at the ponyville hospital, recovering from his fight with Dark. We should go check up on him." Pinkie said in her usual happy tone. "We should throw him a surprise party!" Pinkie stated.
In my opinion, this chapter sounded better in my head but on paper/computer screen, no, not at all. Whatever. Post a comment about what you thought of it, whether good or bad.
Shooterman out.
