*Unknown Place*
Have you ever lost a love one?
yes...
Would you sacrifice your own life, just to see them agian?
I wish to see them again...
Even if it means losing your form?
I wish for them to live the life they have created...
Then you will be forever bond to this world...
I wish to Love... I wish to have Life... But losing what I treasure most... Will all be gone forever...
And Equestria will be your new home...
Night has fallen in equestria, as an endless stream of colored lights continuously swirls around in a dense forest. The wind keeps its constant blow as the light shatters. There lays, a pony. White as snow, its mane mixed blue as a swirling cloud. The once sovereign ruler open its eyes, red as devil... and groans.
"Dam everything to hell, why does everything fucking hurt"
The pony stirs and tries to stand on two 'legs'... only to fall back down in a cartoonish manner.
"Dam it, what the hell" The pony looks at themselves, to finally realized that their... not themselves.
"Well great... hooves... white fur..." the pony mumbles.
The pony once again, with the knowledge of having hooves, stood up. looking over themselves, they notice they also have wings and their entire back side has the same white fur, with the addition of a mark on their hind legs.
"Am I in... Equestria?" the pony asked themselves.
The pony looks up towards the night sky with a thoughtful look.
"I looked like Celestia, and... what happen to me?" the pony, known as Celestia, continues to assess the current situation. They conclude their thoughts with a very vague explanation.
"I'm Celestia, It's night... What brought me here?..." they continue to pace back and forth. After some time they heard shouting and a clash of weaponry. The pony looked towards where the sound could of came from... and decided the best course of action would be best with some information. So in turn, they gallop towards the source.
*Somewhere in the forest*
Surrounded by dark ponies armed with immersive magic, 20 crystal guards and a wizard are fighting for their lives. The stench of blood fills the air, as ponies of different tribes lay dead with massive wounds dealt by the dark ponies.
"Cast your dam teleportation spell, Star Swirl" A guard sergeant shouted, easily identify with their armor with a insignia etch on their side.
"I can't they are blocking any attempts of teleportation, Sergeant. I would love to be out of here as well, more then you do."
The sergeant, vexed with the situation before them, makes a call.
"Listen here soldiers, no matter the cost... we must keep Star Swirl alive. We as the sovereign Knights of Mystic shall do what ever it takes to complete our mission. No matter how many ponies have fallen under these damnation from tartarus, We must uphold our abilities. No matter what we are, regardless of a wing or horn. We will trend onward. For as along as Princess Amore lives. ARE YOU WITH ME!!!"
"FOR THE GLORY OF THE EMPIRE!" shouted 19 crystal guards.
"Sergeant..." The sergeant looked at star swirl. "We need more ponies like you" the sergeant nods.
All the guards prepared for the inevitable...
"By the sun and moon, protect us" star swirl silently prayed.
*Close toward the source of the noise.*
The wind blows silently, as a figure moves swiftly through the woods. Cries of anguish makes it self known through out the forest. Nova, as she thought of keeping Celestia as a name wouldn't fit if there are two in this world, gallop faster towards the noise. Before, Nova tried to self-teach herself. This includes basic magic like levitation and flying, after a few imprints on the ground, to 'fit in' as a normal pony... as normal as a pony can get. As of right now Nova hurries towards the cries of pain in the distant, while also thinking on what timeline they are in. Even with snippets of single memory of a bipedal figure as well as a show called My Little Pony, tries her hardest on why she was here.
As Nova got close to the source of the noise, she was hit with the smell of death. wrinkling her snout, she thrust into a small open field... with ponies, lay dead on the once clean ground; now taint with blood.
"What...the...fuck...happen...here" was the only thing that Nova thought over this situation.
Nova trend carefully through the bodies of the decease , foraging the area for anything useful.
"I know this is wrong but... I think I need this more then you do, if what killed you all here... means something not to be taken lightly." Nova told a corpse that she is digging through, and collected an okay sword, and a intact saddle bag. Nova looked towards all the dead ponies around, a nagging feeling streaks her core.
"Why does it feel like I'm being watched?" Nova looked around cautiously. She notice a small insignia a shape of a tree.
"Hello... what is this?" Nova questioned as she levitation the object in her grasp. She spun it around toward the back side. A description is written on it. Nova begins to read it softly.
"By dawn we ride, by night we watch. To protect the light, to honor our cause. We hold our life, and protect our love. Forever bond, to the sacred tree. Without losing, our mystic soul. We are the knights of the mystic, vow to cleanse all who oppose it"
As Nova recite the last word of the inscription. Darkness creeps towards the area. Nova notice that something wasn't right, drops the insignia and looked behind her. An outlined of dark ponies emerges from the ground.
'Run.'
Nova heard a voice, telling her to run. But stood firm.
"I'll not run" Nova readied her sword that she grab from a corpse.
'Run, or forever be plunge into darkness.'
"Darkness don't scare me" Without knowing; her magic was cast around multiple swords of the decease ponies.
"I don't know why i'm here, or why these ponies have to die... But I know one thing..."
An array of swords shines in the area. Showing multiple of dark ponies appearing more throughout the forest. Sword in the air, whispers telling Nova to run. A tear fell on Nova's face.
I'm here to save a love one
