Chapter 5: The Leaders' Meeting

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

It had been a little over a month since Juan arrived in the land of Equestria, Juan was already known by the castle staff, all the guards were very good to him, and some even treated him as their friend.

Princess Celestia had sent letters to all the leaders of all the races of Equestria instructing them to meet at Canterlot Castle to meet Juan and for them to decide if it was safe to present him to the public. The letters had reached the territories of Mount Aris, Yakistan, the kingdom of dragons, among other territories of Equestria.

Present

Juan was resting in his comfortable bed, nothing was more comfortable for him, although that was questionable, the bed no longer felt comfortable, Juan felt something strange, lately Celestia and Luna gave him strange looks, somewhat ... flirtatious looks . Juan then shook his head, but couldn't think about it anymore, because a horrible noise rang out and the culprit was Scarlet.

"AHHHHH, SCARLET TURN IT OFF!" Juan yelled as he covered his ears with both hands.

Hehe ... I'm sorry Juan but today is the day, today the leaders will meet us and then introduce us to the public.. Scarlet said as she turned off the annoying noise of the alarm.

"Shit, I must have been in the dining room with Celestia and Luna 20 minutes ago." Juan exclaimed while looking at the clock. Then Juan quickly went to the bathroom where he took a shower, then Juan ran to the doors of his room, then turned to the door to tell Scarlet.

"Hey babe, I'll be having breakfast with the princesses." Juan said as he ran to the dining room. Scalet only responded with a "Uhum".

After running Juan stopped panting in front of the dining room doors, the doors were protected by two guards that Juan quickly recognized.

"Good morning, Firefly, Blade dancer." Juan greeted the two Pegasus mares who were guarding the door. Firefly had a blue mane and tail and his coat was pink, his cutiemarck was a pair of blue rays and he wore golden armor. Blade dancer was a pegasus with a crimson mane and tail and a white coat and a star cutiemarck. Both mares smiled when they saw their friend.

"There is my favorite human, how have you been Juani?". Blade dancer asked with a smile on her face.

"Eh been good, these last few days have been casual, well, until today?" Juan said with a smile.

"It's good to hear that from you. By the way, the princesses have been waiting for you for a few minutes for breakfast." Firefly said as he pointed his spear into the dining room.

"Yeah, you better come in at once. It was nice to say hello to you girls, maybe later we'll have some shakes." Juan said as he said goodbye to both pegasi. To later meet Celestia and Luna waiting for him with radiant and somewhat flirtatious smiles.

"Good morning Juan, did you sleep well?" Greeting Moon.

"Good morning at two. Yes I slept well, until Scarlet woke me up with that damn alarm, but I slept well. How are you two?" Juan asked both princesses.

"We are very well this beautiful morning Juan." Celestia exclaimed as she patted a seat between her and her sister, Juan nodded with a smile and sat down.

"Well Juan, are you enjoying your stay at the castle?" Celestia said as she slowly leaned her head on Juan's shoulder, this made Juan blush a bit from the action of the princess of the sun.

"Well ... I guess the castle is beautiful and I've already made some friends among the guards." Juan said. Celestia apparently liked being around Juan, she felt ... safe, apparently this last month Celestia was beginning to have feelings for Juan ... but she was not the only one.

"Hey aunt don't hog it." Luna whispered to her sister without Juan noticing. Luan also slowly rested her head on Juan's other shoulder. This made Juan blush more ... he wondered what was going on with the princesses, first Twilight's somewhat sensual gazes and then this. Juan didn't know what to do so he stayed there while both princesses enjoyed the comfort. Although not only Twilight, Celestia and Luna behaved like this, but Cadance also did it, Juan sometimes sent him somewhat romantic letters, Juan kept them, but this was ... strange

Juan felt very uncomfortable so he decided to talk about the events later, before Juan could speak, the waiter arrived who quickly wrote them down for breakfast at 3. After Juan left he spoke.

"Ehh ... princesses ... when are the creature leaders supposed to arrive here in Canterlot?" Juan asked trying to feel as less uncomfortable as possible.

"Ehh well ... they'll be here in about 3 or 4 hours, but don't worry they won't treat you like a freak." Celestia said with a sensual smile. Juan was actually very brave, but he was mentally broken, afraid that these rulers would treat him as a monster or a threat. Just like his old schoolmates treated him.

"Oh I see, after breakfast I will dress up with the clothes Rarity gave me." Juan said. Then the waiter arrived with what they ordered, after breakfast Juan said goodbye to both princesses. Juan then to his room where Scarlet was waiting for him.

"Hey baby, I'm here." Juan said.

How was breakfast with the sisters? . Scarlet said, as Juan sat on the corner of his bed and thought about what happened in the dining room.

Ehh ... Juan are you okay? what happened in the dining room? Scarlet asked with some concern in her voice.

"Oh it's nothing baby I'm just kind of ... thoughtful." Juan said trying to hide his sadness.

Juan ... I know you're wrong ... you programmed me to be not only a company but also a friend ... your family. Come on, you can tell me what ails you Scarlet's words made a small smile appear on Juan's face.

"Ok ... well I'm a bit ... nervous about what other leaders will think about me, I hope they trust me like princesses and guards do." Juan said with a tone not so nervous now.

Juan ... you don't have to be nervous ... if they think you are like Ezekiel then it will be their loss. You are a very good person ... you are strong, intelligent, brave, attractive, and cute.. Juan felt less nervous with his friend's words.

"Thanks babe". Juan said with a more radiant smile. Scarlet replied with "no problem". Juan then lay back on the bed.

"Well, the leaders will arrive in a few hours, I have a few minutes before Firefly and Blade escort us to the throne room, I think we have time to rest a few minutes." Juan exclaimed as he fell asleep in bed.

30 minutes later

Princess Luna and Celestia waited for the other rulers to arrive at the castle. Twilight was the first to arrive, followed by her friends and Spike. Then the doors opened revealing Princess Cadance and Prince Shining Armor. Cadance then ran to his sister-in-law making his salute, seeing Shining the princesses Luna and Celestia gave him false smiles, hiding inside their hatred and revulsion about the abusive prince. Then the princesses, the girls and Armor learned of the arrival of the carriages of the leaders. Everyone quickly took their places to greet the other rulers.

The doors opened to reveal a stallion in a golden breastplate, dark blue mane, and a trumpet with the Equestrian flag on its right hoof. Then the trumpet sounds to introduce each ruler.

"All please welcome the Queen of Aquastria and monarch of the Hippogriffs ... Queen Novo." Said the stallion as a white hippogriff with purple mane and tails and a collar on his neck entered from behind the pony.

"Your majesties". Queen Novo said as she bowed to the 4 princesses and Armor.

"And also welcome the future monarch of Mount Aris Princess Skystar and her cousin Silverstream." The stallion said as two other hippogriffs came out from behind him. The first was yellow with sky blue hair and a necklace like her mother. The second was purple with light blue hair and another necklace.

"Princesses". They both said in unison bowing to the princesses and the prince. Skystar sometimes greeted Pinkie and the other girls surreptitiously. They then took their places next to Queen Novo.

"Please also welcome Ki Seong, ruler of Neigphon and the Kirins." Then a green kirin appeared with a black hairstyle, white vuentre and some gold ornaments. The kirin leaned down and took her place.

Successively the stallion introduced the other leaders. After Ki Seong the next was Torax ruler of the changelings, then followed a dragon named Ember ruler of the dragons, then the Duke of the Griffins had arrived and finally the annoying Discord who for some reason was invited to the meeting.

"When will the 'human' arrive?" Shining Armor asked as all the leaders organized in their places.

"It will arrive soon". Celestia said.

"You will love Juan, he is very good." Twilight said to which the others smiled.

"And great" Rainbow Dash added. The leaders just smiled. Well everyone except a few who were Shining Armor and the Duke of the Griffons had suspicious and angry expressions on their faces.

Meanwhile in Juan's room, he was very nervous, although Scarlet tried to calm him down, he was still more nervous. Then Juan heard the noise that he never wanted to hear. They knocked on his door, surely they were Firefly and Blade to escort him, Juan then took the hologram of Scarlet, her golden revolvers and then opened the door, where the pegasus escorting him were standing.

"Hey Juan, are you ready?" Blade asked.

"I was born ready". Juan said while swallowing hard. Then both pegasi escorted him to the throne room, there was standing the stallion that had presented to the leaders. Then he was surprised to see Juan, then the stallion asked both information about Juan, the stallion nodded and gestured for Juan to follow him. Juan had never been so nervous.

Then when Juan and the stallion entered they were greeted by shocked gasps from everyone except the princesses, the girls and Spike. Then the stallion introduced Juan to the leaders.

"Please all welcome John the Human and his companion Scarlet." Said the stallion as he left the throne room. There was mostly silence, Juan didn't know what to do until Scarlet told him to bow down. Juan leaned over and then stood up again. Then Queen Novo was the first to speak.

"Hello young Juan, I am Queen Novo, the monarch of Aquastria and the Hippogriffs. This is my daughter Princess Skystar and this is my niece Silverstream." Exclaimed the queen giving a friendly smile to the nervous Juan.

"A pleasure to meet your majesties." Juan said as he leaned towards the queen, his daughter and his niece. Queen Novo persibio that Juan was not a threat but was mentally broken, this made Novo put a slight frown like his daughter and his niece. But then he gave Juan a friendly smile, while Skystar and Silverstream waved their claws.

"Greetings young man, I am Ki Seong ruler of Neightphon and the Kirins." The green kirin was introduced, Juan then bowed Japanese style surprising the kirin. Who was surprised by how well studied the young man was.

"Nice to meet you". Juan said. Successively the other leaders were introducing themselves. Only Queen Novo, Skystar, Silverstream, Ki Seong, Ember, and Torax trusted Juan. Only the Duke of Gryphons was undecided. But then Skystar noticed Juan's golden revolvers and freaked out.

"Excuse me Juan, but ... what are those golden things that you carry on your belt?" Skystar asked in a trembling voice, fearing they were deadly weapons.

"Oh these princess ... they are my revolvers, they are weapons that I only use in self-defense or in defense of my allies." Juan explained, Skystar got a little scared, but then he calmed down because Juan only used them when it was duly necessary.

"Okay, I understand." Said the princess with a smile of understanding, Juan returned the smile.

"And young Juan, have you ever killed a creature with these weapons." Seong pointed to the revolvers.

"Well actually, I have ... but I've only killed the corrupt." Juan said. This made Ember ask.

"Could you tell us who are these corrupt?" Ember asked.

"The corrupt are a tyrannical regime that want me dead. They want me dead because I have fooled their plans many times, they are also commanded by an evil human named Ezequiel. They have all humans under their control, except ... me". Juan explained.

"Believe me, sometimes I have to take drastic measures against the corrupt." Juan finished. Luegl Juan introduced everyone in the room to Scarlet, Scarlet quickly began to get along with Novo, Ki Seong and Skystar. After arguing about the bloody and cruel deeds that the corrupt did. Celestia was about to finish when then the prince decided to speak.

"Hey human, and how do we know that you are not one of those corrupt." Armor asked. with an angry look on his face.

"Well I ..." Juan was interrupted by Armor getting down from his seat to confront him.

"Shininig ...". Cadance couldn't finish because Armor was now face to face with Juan.

Shining Armor then came face to face with Juan. Scarlet told Juan not to do anything stupid since he had the trust and acceptance of all the leaders.

"I know you're lying human ... sure you must be a demon like those corrupt ... who knows what you could do to one of us ... you're just a MONSTER!" Shining Armor screamed in Juan's face, but he didn't flinch.

"I want you to know that if you approach my wife or my sister, I myself will send you to the tartar." Armor said.

"Pincipe Shining Armor, return to your place right now, you are making our guest uncomfortable." Celestia exclaimed. But his words fell on deaf ears. luegl Armor whispered to Juan.

"And if I could I would send all these bitches to the tartar with you." This was the last straw, Juan angrier than ever grabbed Armor by the neck and then pointed one of his revolvers at his head. Everyone was in shock, but many saw that it was understandable, Juan was defending himself from the cruel prince.

"Do you want to know something? 1. I hate the corrupt, 2. you already have me up to the mother and 3. You never mess with them again ... NEVER ... now say hello to the other corrupt for me." Juan said with a dark voice, but then his arms tried to be restrained, Juan then looked at the head and saw that Cadance and Twilight were trying to stop him.

"Juan please ... don't hurt my brother anymore." Twilight said releasing a few tears.

"Juan I know he said horrible things to you ... but please have mercy on him." Cadance also said as she tried to pull Juan's arms away from her husband.

"Please Juan ... I beg you." Juan was very angry at this unicorn for making fun of him and the princesses, but seeing Twilight and Cadance desperately trying to stop him broke his heart. Juan then released his hold on Armor who fell to the ground while gasping for oxygen. Cadance and Twilight quickly ran to the unicorn's aid.

"I'm very sorry, it's just that I have some anger issues ... I wouldn't want to cause any more problems ... so ...". Juan could not finish because he was stopped by a simultaneous NO of all.

"You were acting only on your own defense dear." Ki Seong said with an understanding smile.

"Everything is forgotten Juan." Cadance said giving him an understanding smile just like everyone else in the room. After the incident the meeting ended and all the leaders had gone to the guest rooms, Juan had to say goodbye to Cadance, the girls, Spike and Luna and then stay alone with Celestia

As Juan walked with Celestia to his room, he was stopped by news that he never wanted to hear again. corrupt alert.

Juan ... I don't know how this is possible but ... I'm detecting a corrupted signal ... do you think ....

"No, I don't think so ... although it may be possible ...". Juan said.

"Excuse me Juan, what is this corrupt signal?" Celestia asked as they walked. Sacarlet quickly told Juan to reassure Celestia and tell her what was going on.

"Look Celestia I don't want you to be scared, but ... Scarlet found the origin of a signal from the corrupt, Scarlet thinks a drone or a soldier must be near ... near your room." Juan exclaimed, this made Celestia a bit scared because she was vulnerable at night.

"Okay ... I understand Juan, I'll let you know if I hear or see something strange, ok?" Celestia asked, to which Juan nodded. But before Celestia entered her room she was stopped by Juan.

"Wait, I don't want something to happen to you ... I'll stay in your room to make sure nothing happens to you." Juan said. Celestia blushed, no one had cared so much for her besides Luna. Celestia just nodded and went to her room followed by Juan.

"Watch every corner of the room." Juan told Scarlet.

Ceslestia and Juan had entered the princess's room, Juan then closed the door behind them so that no one could spy on them, but ... inadvertently a bipedal shadow was stalking them outside the hall, waiting for the perfect moment to kill them. the vulnerable Celestia.

"Well, Ceslestia sleep peacefully in your bed, I'll wake you up when the danger has passed okay?" Juan asked as Celestia took off her crown, her shoes and her necklace.

"Well, I'll be resting ... are you sure you're not going to sleep?" Asked the diarca del sol.

"No, I'll sleep when you're safe." Juan told her, she blushed and then lay down. A few hours had passed and Juan had his camouflage activated in case something happened, he was sitting on a small bench next to Celestia's bed.

"Come on ... I know you want Celestia ... but you'll have to step over me." Juan whispered to himself.

Juan ... I'm noticing movement ... outside the room in the hallway ... it must be him.

"Come to daddy, you coward."

Then the doors swung open revealing something that both Juan and Scarlet feared ... was a corrupt soldier escorted by two drones. The soldier carried a small turret and a machine gun in his hands, both drones were inspecting the room, Juan put on his helmet and readied his revolvers in case he tried something. Juan quickly recognized this soldier ... Roger. Roger reloaded his machine gun waking Celestia.

Celestia quickly tried to carry her horn but then she was chained to the bed by the drones, Celestia was trying to free herself, but a chain grabbed her around her waist, the drones had chained Celestia to the bed.

"You will only make it more difficult presiosa." Roger exclaimed with a dark tone, Celestia was trying desperately to free herself, until the chain around her waist began to grip her tighter, the chains were now more secured to the bed. Scarlet was yelling at Juan that he will help the princess quickly, but Juan told her that it was not the time.

"Just tell me where the other princesses and the elements are." Roger exclaimed, Celestia with a furious look and still in chains told him.

"Never monster." Celestia exclaimed, then spat on Roger's face. This made Roger roar.

"I'm going to pepper you and then rape you until you're nothing more than a worn mare." Roger exclaimed while reloading his machine gun, Juan saw the right moment. Juan then came out of hiding and deactivated his camouflage, Roger was in shock Juan was alive.

"You missed me bastard." Juan asked. Before Roger could say anything he was thrown to the wall of the hall, while Roger regained consciousness Juan ran to unleash Celestia.

"Ok, this may hurt a little." Juan exclaimed, then Juan took off all the chains, when he went by the waist chain, Celestia cried out in pain as they took it off. After I removed all the chains Juan took her to the ground.

"You're good?". Juan asked with concern.

"I'm fine ... thanks to you ... Juan CAREFUL!". Celestia yelled as Roger kicked Juan.

"You're going to regret that." Juan said as he hid his weapons and got into a fighting stance.

"Since you're still alive, you're dead." Roger said while looking confused.

"Would a dead man do this?" Juan said as he punched Roger in the face, making him stagger and drawing some blood.

Juan quickly left the room giving a punch to Roger, Roger angrier than ever tried to hit Juan without success, while they fought Juan yelled.

"CELESTIA CALL EVERYONE! NOW!". yelled Juan as he handed Roger a key. Celestia nodded and went to the other rooms.

"When we're done with this, you'll have to answer a few questions." Exclaimed Juan. Roger then kicked Juan and then ran off, followed by his drones.

"Come back here coward." Juan exclaimed as he chased him to the throne room. Celestia on the other hand was being chased by some mini drones that tried to shoot her, with some spells Celestia managed to shoot some down, but then a last mini drone shot her in her leg making her fall and let out a cry of pain, Celestia then shot down the mini drone with another spell.

"Argg ... this is bad ... arg." Celestia groaned as she looked at his leg bloodied from the shot.

"SISTER! Are you okay, what happened?" Came the voice of a moon fearing for the welfare of her sister.

"Calm Lulu, I'm fine, it's just that an old enemy of Juan chained me and almost raped me until Juan saved me. At this moment he is chasing him to the throne room." Celestia explained. The other doors opened revealing the other princesses, the other leaders, and the elements.

"Celestia, what's wrong?" Ki Seong asked as he approached the injured princess.

"It's Juan ... he saved me from an evil human who tried to rape and kill me, he's chasing him to the throne room." Celestia explained to all the shocked faces.

"And what are we waiting for, the boy needs us." Novo exclaimed as she and the others ran towards the throne room.

Juan was chasing Roger, Roger desperately tried to shoot him without success, Juan on the other hand was dodging the bullets.

"Kill the bastard NOW!" Roger ordered his last two drones, the drones then tried to tackle Juan failing in the attempt.

"Scarlet, destroy those things." Juan said as he kept running, Scarlet obeyed and both drones fell to the ground. Roger, even more scared, reached the throne room and then closed the doors in Juan's face. Juan with a kick iso open the doors. Roger was going to escape through a window but was stopped by Juan's hook who threw him to the ground.

"It's the end of the stage." Juan said as he pointed one of his revolvers at him. Juan then turned and saw all the leaders, the elements, and even Spike.

"You're in serious trouble." Juan exclaimed, Roger then freed himself from Juan's hook and stood up.

"Oh come on Juan ... you know I was kidding." Roger said.

"You must answer my questions now, and do not try anything or else I will shake your head." Said Juan, Roger then noticed Skystar, who was very nervous and was more separated from the group. Roger then walked towards her without Juan noticing. And then I grab Skystar. Everyone in the room was shocked by what he would do with Skystar.

"Let me go, monster." Skystar said as he forged, then received a blow to the stomach. This made Queen Novo angry just like Juan, Skystar was very scared.

"MY DAUGHTER!". The queen yelled, being stopped by Juan.

"Everybody backslide, or I'll kill this little bitch." Roger threatened, everyone retreated except Juan.

"Put down the damn guns now." Roger said without taking his grip off the scared hippogriff. Juan reluctantly obeyed and dropped his revolvers. But unbeknownst to Roger, Juan had a trick up his sleeve, a small gun hidden in his pocket.

Juan quickly shot Roger's foot, causing him to scream in pain and releasing Skystar who quickly recoiled towards Juan, Juan realized that Skystar was crying out of fear and then leaned down and told him.

"Shh ... it's okay ... you're safe now ... it won't hurt you anymore I promise ... now go to your mother." Juan said. Skystar then stopped crying and secretly gave Juan a little kiss on the cheek, Skystar then spoke.

"Thank you very much ... my hero." Skystar exclaimed as she walked over to her mother and cousin, who hugged. Juan then changed his expression from calm to angry, then picked up both revolvers and headed towards a Roger who was moaning in pain down his leg.

"You are a damn idiot dog, Ezequiel will soon come along with a powerful army and they will imprison them all and then conquer Equestria ... by the way Juan you were always a weirdo at school so no one loved you, Ahahaha ...". Roger couldn't finish by
Then a BOOM sounded, now Roger lay dead on the floor leaving a pool of blood, Skystar and Silversrtream quickly looked away from the corpse, while Fluthershy cried.

"Do not believe him, I will never stop those damned from hurting you or any other creature." Juan said while reassuring everyone. Juan then pushed Roger's corpse out of a window. Celestia then trotted over to Juan to give him a big hug.

"Thank you Juan ... thank you very much for saving me and Princess Skystar." Celestia said as she gave Juan a big hug. Juan then smiled at Celestia, but then Celestia screamed in pain from her broken leg.

"Celestia, you are hurt, let me heal you." Juan said as he ripped off a piece of her clothing and wrapped it around Celestia's leg. Celestia then lifted Juan's helmet and gave him a kiss on the cheek, then limped up.

"Young Juan, I thank you very much for saving my daughter's life, is there anything I can pay you with?" Queen Novo asked as she gave her daughter and niece a hug.

"Nothing really, I'm just doing the right thing, your majesty." Juan said with a smile.

"Please just call me Novo. You have earned my trust." Exclaimed the queen.

"Also just call me Skystar." Said the princess with a smile.

"You also have my confidence young Juan." Seong said.

"And mine, it will be an honor to have you as an ally." Ember said.

"You are a very brave young man, the changelings will be happy to call you our friend." Torax said.

"Thank you ... but it's been a long day ... I think I'll go to bed." Juan said, everyone nodded and went to their rooms.

Juan then saw how Celestia moaned in pain and approached her.

"Need help?". Juan asked, Celestia nodded and Juan led her to her bridal room. When they arrived, Juan gently deposited Celestia on her bed.

"Rest well princess." Juan said with a smile, but was stopped by his magic.

"Juan ... uhh I'm still a little scared, so I'd like to ask you if you want to sleep with me." Celestia said with a nervous tone.

"Voucher". Juan said as he took off his helmet, then Celestia gave him another kiss on the cheek and covered him with her wings and legs.

"I knew it, smart mare." Juan said with a smile as he fell asleep with Celestia by his side.
