Author's Note
It was the first time that I had written something like this of my own free will. It's not my first language .Have fun :D
Legion in my Heart
"Power ... only it allows me to win. My legions are the strength that keeps me from losing battles. Technology beyond the wildest imaginations of my enemies, the power of magic and science together give them an image of strength in the fight against the enemy. And you yourself are surrounded by dreams and dead people. Scary, but you feel all those dreams of the greatness of these soul-liberating voices. You see those strongholds and locks folding like cards or falling dominoes. "
You see their fear of these two princesses standing in armor with knights in armor-colored eyes, and all you think is funny and silly standing in the snow in these armor. Gold stands out in the snow like blood under my feet. When you read a book of poetry that you borrowed from a deceased boyfriend, you lose interest and eventually decide to pay attention to it by talking about the value of harmony as if it made sense.
The pink haired princess with the sun symbol begins her performance after losing a few cast members. She goes alone, leaving her blue-haired sister with a moon only a few inches shorter than hers. She walks closer to the fighter, taking off her helmet herself, showing the teenager
"I, Princess Celestia, handmaid of harmony, ruler of the day, she who rises the sun, protector of Equestria, daughter ..."
She was interrupted by the approaching 10-meter-high warrior with blue-green dragon eyes, armor so black that the shine was drowned in streamlined black, as well as his skin, armed only with a long sword and armor.
Yes
"I demand that you leave our land and leave our citizens alone!" . The moment she finished speaking, only the wind can be heard.
What was that supposed to be?
"These lands belonged to my legion and mine when Equestri was not on the map." All these rivers and forests belong to my people, as you already mentioned. They will smile looking into her terrified eyes. "Your Majesty, your citizens, despite the warnings, decided to attack and disturb me in my kingdom, and instead of sending me a proper apology, you decided to send these warriors here." point to the bodies around it "if you can call them that?"
Celestia couldn't disagree with him. The aristocracy gave no information about the ruler or the rare giant living in these lands. The policy of taking power in favor of her and her sister is due to the lack of support and acceptance from the aristocracy coming from those who never accepted one and three tribes. self-righteous and not even recognizing her as a person and abominations. Maybe that's why they didn't say about him, she would surely die - Sister, all right. Celestia heard the message through the telepathy linking her to Luna.
"Yes, sister, I just don't know what to do." In half an hour, he managed to defeat our entire legion of Earth warriors, consisting only of experienced men who helped us defeat the armies of traditionalists in a week-long siege. And the worst part is that it talks about a legion. like him.
She looked at the warrior closely and noticed mists of the same color as his eyes and shadows that began to approach her despite the falling light. Instinctively she jumped away from the shadow, throwing off her helmet and not looking at the warrior standing in front of her, only when she noticed that the shadow was covering her whole body, she looked straight ahead. The warrior who stood a yard away from her was now standing a foot away from her.
She watched, surprised that her fear drowned out her sister's message. Her mind made her want to run away and not look back, unfortunately it only paralyzed her legs. she finally fell into a sitting position. I keep looking into the eyes of the Lord. However, using his power, he pulls the helmet towards him like a magnet and slowly lifts the princess with the same force. A hand with clawed fingers runs through her hair, noticing her young, but not adult, face.
“Now I see that I am dealing with a child. So I will take this insult as a child's joke. Your fear is evidence of your ignorance or too much confidence in two informants.” A sincere, fang-filled smile is visible on the disappearing defensive mask. “ We'll forget about it.”
She noticed that there was real chaos around them. The royal guards try their best to fight the fog and try to break through the veil to help the princess, and Luna persistently tries to get her sister out of the dome of blue shields, trying to grab her with her hand, breaking between them.
"TIA TIAAAA !!!"
They are both looking at her and the knights from all sides. Celestia decides what to do next, talking slightly muted.
"I agree, we can do it, but I hope you understand that in the situation that arises, I can ask you to extend this dome?" smiling with a broad white smile.
He looked around again with the mask on. Stating that he has a slightly different idea. With his power, he moves all guards away a few hundred feet, leaving only Lune near them. Celestia uses magic to stop her sister from attacking the Lord with her full power. Communicate to her that the situation is under control.
After calming down, Luna said, "You understand that if I am to consider it as talks between the rulers, we must have a place for talks, do you agree?"
"Yes, of course, only go to the top is my house there".
Both princesses could not believe in the beauty of the castle in front of their eyes. They were faith rising towards the sky, exposing woe, the stone had a great wall of defense in front of them protecting the city and a smaller wall protecting only the palace. The city is quiet and clean. Looking around the palace, they noticed columns and large stained glass windows depicting numerous beasts and legions in gray armor defeating demons and nightmares with dragons and griffins.
"WHAT THIS PLACE LOOKS LIKE A DREAM!" Luna shouted through the entire castle causing a great echo. Not knowing how else to speak in such a great place.
"Yeah ... that means you have this place under management, right? Celestia said, trying not to scream like a sister. Probably has a great history and importance to your country, could I find out what it's called?"
The Lord turned to the great obsidian throne and almost whispered the name of the great strong castle that had survived the greatest wars against the Lords of Hell and the enemy gods themselves.
The name pleased the princesses with its name.
The princesses wanted to know this place and the legend behind it.
The Lord looked at the girls completely closed, just looked at the two dreamy girls about visiting the castle.
'We're not here in a minute Luna' said Celestia, completely crazy, thinking about the right course
"Our job is to get support and approval from a larger group of reunification parties, but they only want to get rid of the monster and colonize these lands and they are already taken over."
"Tia"
"But we don't have the people and the skills to fight for it unless we get support," she started walking back and forth.
"TIa."
And our castle in Everfree may not cope with such an attack and a fire in the forest will only bring losses
"Celestia!"
"Er ... yeah Lulu sorry I had a little control problem." She smiled at her sister.
"Maybe let's ask him" she looked at the blue-eyed man sitting on the stairs in front of the throne.
This is a terrible idea a few hours ago he almost destroyed us on the battlefield. Remember how he did it.
"Yes, I remember, you remember what happened and now imagine him with us against evil because, as I remember, we also need not only a title and an army, but also alliances to unite Equestria under a common banner, and maybe he would teach me this tricks with the fog. " Anyway, we can stop using mind reading because I have an impression he notices our discussions.
They both looked at the warrior who was looking at them, who clearly sees the acting talent of their older sister.
"Don't keep doing it, nothing is more fun than a girl whipping around making gestures and strange faces."
"I understand that you are not here for the sole purpose of killing me and appropriating my lands, judging by this performance a moment ago." He looked at them with a raised eyebrow.
"If I understood correctly these pantomimes because there must be a reason, right?"
Celestia assumed an upright posture. And Luna was standing next to her.
We are here because the aristocrats who sent agricultural colonies here were supposed to widen the borders of our country due to the crowding on the lands of the aristocracy and give them a chance for a new life here.
"I guess they got you, because there were no rare colonists here, they were just groups of condemned abandoned to death, so at least I was told by the chains on the wrists and children without parents. Unless your people's definition of a colony differs from mine." He said devoid of a smile and his dragon eyes, which now resembled human eyes.
Luna looked at her sister, surprised by this important information. Celestia, however, was not sure that the warrior was not lying. however, it would make great sense why despite such a grand project the colony did not see great changes in cities and families moving from crowded places to new lands.
"What happened to them?"
He stood up in full armor without any screeching sound and with incredible lightness. By removing the mask of defense from the face.
After they realized that they were alone with children and seeds and a few animals, the search for a way to survive began. In the beginning, they started by founding gangs, Red Razors, Golden Wings, Arsonists and Farmers, the division resulted in political prisoners being killed within 2 hours. And a few days later, the first huts and small farmlands were built, which were robbed by the more radical as soon as they yielded. After the fourth arson, the farmers were fed up with constant oppression. They tore the Arsonists to shreds with saws and axes, and finally cleaned them up by burying them bound and naked with open wounds for better cultivation.
They both listened with disbelief and disgust at what he said about the actions of their citizens.
“The golden ones stole metals and agricultural implements to make armor and painted them gold. In the end, they planned to disguise themselves and attack the nearest lands, pretending to be guards, but the plans were burned when Razors found out about it and decided to plow for theft a little for the fun of these crooks.”
“A great massacre began because of the lack of food, and after the preparations, the Farmers were the only ones who were the most numerous and somehow had meat to eat. They fell under the attack of two groups. The initiative was taken over by the golden people with the best weapons and they fought with farmers who had the advantage of knowing the area. But knowledge of the terrain. However, no one expected the Razors to have the smallest number but the most fucked up in their heads. They were always in masks and it was them, when the Farmers bury the arsonists in the middle of the night, they at the same time decided to dig them out for their own pleasure, don't ask to know, you don't want to, and they had a unique feature of a lack of empathy. It was them who, although all the children had few things, decided to take everything from them and their special fun was throwing them vegetables to see their reactions to moldy food.”
Celestia was hugged by a terrified Lune. But she still listened with a stone-faced story.
“The fight caused that the snow that was supposed to cover the world with pure white before it fell to the ground was black with the smoke of burning flesh and red with the blood of mad fools.
At that moment, he did not say anything to the princess, nor did he.
"It happened to your" colony ", I was not able to stop it and even if I wanted to, they would not listen to me like you did before our battle, therefore people need a goal and taking their hope leads to death and grotesque."
Luna was sobbing softly but her sister didn't have the rare explanation just for the stories she was hearing she could say nothing. And from her eyes only one tear shed at what happened to the stories.
Thoughts of complete failure flashed through her mind, but the fact that happened, to the children and to the survivors, bewildered her more.
Due to the princesses' reactions, the warrior got up and walked over to them and hugged them
"You had the fate of those who lost their lives that you forgot the most important question, didn't you?"
"How do you know so much about this?" Said Luna, already calm
"The area is clean, you can go out!"
Behind the throne and the three next to the throne appeared a group of the oldest children in their teens.
The princesses couldn't help but marvel at who they saw. Finally the sun princess asked
"How..."
"I am big and older than I look, I have seen things that could kill me with their eyes and even kill my feelings and pity, but never compassion for those who need me and help in the dark hour."
Celestia and Luna saw the children approaching them, fascinated with the first time they saw Alikorns, when they expected fear and prejudice about their species as an abomination from magic, she only heard a word that they had not heard for a long time.
"Hi, I'm SweetCake, I know you probably hear that a lot, but you both look ... beautiful." Said purple girl with white curly hair. She looked at the princesses with a smile.
The words were quiet, but enough to make the princesses feel as if they had heard the words shouted out in the old dragon's magic tongue, returned to the time of peace before she had to fight with everyone for the throne and power in a kingdom torn apart by everyone. She looked at the faces of the children who were dead in their hearts and now stood before them like miracles.
Celestia looked at the warrior for the first time with no forced courage, or an anger that veiled sorrow. It was a hope and a trust she hadn't felt for a long time. She watched as the fighting Lord took the purple egg from the oldest.
"Hope this act of my stage was enough for you to trust me, okay?"
The princess just shook her head along with her sister before speaking out loud her request
"Please, could I ask you for help?" Celestia said
"in what? In war or in colonies?" The warrior guessed.
"In gaining a smile, the joy of what will allow us to unite again into a safe land, create a world of true harmony without fear and the nightmare of war!
"With real dreams, not those where survival of the war is the only thing that safe, non-burning or fear-inspiring heat craves.
"Not"
Celestia and her sister froze at that answer.
Not alone will make my legion unity. Canterlot is the last symbol of the unity of species of all races and species without exception, but will pass it on to my heir and their people to hold together what centuries ago allowed us to sit together in this chamber. Legion. He hit his heart with his fist. My tears are still here as the spirits of my memory. You think that you will be able to understand the oldest truth and its effects.
Luna and Celestia had no answer, and if they really aren't worthy of what I want to bring, Lord Canterlot.
"No, but we can learn it truthfully from you. If you trusted us so much, we probably already met the first requirement." Celestia said
"Why is that ?"
"Because you showed us the kids and you didn't let us think they were all dead." Luna said with a smile and cocked head.
And as we noticed you don't have much pity when it comes to your enemies, Celestia said with a smile on her face.
The warrior laughed so hard that one could hear the laughter of a thousand legion warriors in the throne room. He only stopped when he grabbed his belly, trying not to choke him.
"Na Ha hah ha ha ... on the Throne hihi !!!" Start to calm down. On my Throne maybe those thousands of ghosts in my head were right not to kill these princesses in the end. MAY finally win you lousy world.
"Let me give you the teachings anyway, and whack it, I will give you my kingdom as you deserve, and in return you will give me what I and all of us want the most!" He looked at the egg with his son in his claws "And after my life."
"Agreed let me be teacher!" Luna jumped happily like a certain pink unborn Terran.
"Oh I can see what you are doing here and I like this one!"
"I don't prefer to be called differently if we can agree to it, okay?"
What do you prefer to call you?
By the name of Orrorinokas Dragospinke or Orro and if you don't want to, just call me ...
A friend, yeah? Celestia said.
Yes, because it may be hard to believe, but friendship is magic, is it understandable? Orro said, extending his hand for a hug.
"Yes." Celestia said, hugging him and her sister.
"I feel that it will be the beginning of a beautiful friendship and strange adventures."
