Savage POV

If one of our sisters would have told us that one day we would follow an earth pony stallion, we would had laughed in her face. But here we ended…

Worst of the following part was that we had to WALK. Us, a pure alicorn which we are, had to walk all the day. And why? Because earth ponies are not able to fly. And even the rest of our sisters seemed alright with the fact that they had to trot as well instead of using their glorious wings!

All the time we kept our distance from the group. Mostly from the worm called Zitrus Mixus. Not that we didn’t want to talk with our sisters. We were happy to see them. But under such conditions…

Right now it was evening with the sun shining brightly. The open area changed to a hilly landscape. It looked rather calm. Some dead trees here, some stones there and everything covered with the brown wasteland grass.

We, as the whole group, settled down to spend the night here. The worm built up two tents and made a fire to cook himself some food. Because, unlike us, he required food and water to survive.

How pathetic, we thought.

We were playing a bit with the green streak in our mane, sitting a bit away from the group. Not too far that we would not hear them, but still with enough space that we did not feel the presence of the stallion. The three were sitting mostly in silence. The tense air made it not possible to start a conversation.

We heard the stallion sighing. “You two should talk with her a bit.”

Crystal seemed to like the idea very much. Blueberry on the other hoof didn’t give in so fast.

“Why?”, she asked with a neutral face, while she unshouldered her longbow.

“She is still a sister of yours and she could use some ponies to talk with. Besides, deep inside you also want to talk with her, don’t you?”, Zitrus answered.

Blueberry looked at us. We looked back. Then she suddenly stood up and trotted in our direction. Crystal was barely able to catch up with her sudden motion as she followed her.

The two sat down in the opposite of us.

“We don’t need your sympathy only because he told you to”, we said to our sisters but didn’t look at them directly.

“We are not here because Zitrus told us to. We are here because he is right. We need to talk with you”, Blueberry told us.

“Why?”, we asked them.

“Because you are our sister”, Crystal answered.

Blueberry nodded. “We have our different opinions, but you are still part of this group.”

“We are not part of the group as long as HE is as well”, We said loud enough that the stallion would be able to hear it.

My blue sister shook in her head in disapointment but didn’t say anything.

“And besides, if you two wanted to talk with us, then why haven’t you came on your own will? Instead you waited until that unworthy worm told you so”, we remembered them.

“Because we hoped you would join us. Then we wouldn’t had to leave Zitrus alone like we do right now”, Blueberry explained.

We huffed.

Like we would ever go to sit with that shit of a stallion.

"Is there anything you want to tell us about yourself?”, Crystal tried to change the subject.

We gave a nod. “What would you like to know?”

Crystal thought a moment before answering. “How about where your wing is? You have been all alone when we met. Did you split up with your wing sisters?”

We felt a rush of anger and sadness coming over us when we heard the question. When we answered, our voice was filled with utter contempt and hatred. “Our wing sisters got murdered. Raiders ambushed us. We were lucky to survive ourselves. We tried to teleport our wing sisters into safety, but the attack happened so fast and suddenly… There was nothing we could do to save them. We could only revenge our lost sisters.” We took a small break to catch a breath.

“That happened soon before our great mother, the goddess, got killed. When we lost our wing, we returned to Maripony, our home, to form up with a new wing. And then it happened. Our mother... Killed by a sneaked in balefire bomb planted by an unicorn and her group. We were there and saw it all. Saw how we lost our dear Goddess. But you two should know that”

There was a moment of silence between us three.

“Is that the reason why you hate ponies?”, Blueberry then asked.

We shook our head. “No, it definitely was another big straw added but our hate started way sooner. Not just ponies, but nearly every creature killed some sisters of us. Seeing us as monsters and standing in the way of our goals.” We looked at our two sisters. “And what we said about males, was not made up. They cannot control their needs. If they were able to get their hooves on an alicorn, dead or alive, they raped them.”

Both of our sisters were silent for some time.

Crystal was the first who spoke up. But she didn’t look at us. Instead, she looked at the ground. “You know, we also did awful things in the past.”

“Indeed, I also don’t like how other ponies look at me and are always on guard. But I cannot blame them. Savage, we killed them or brutally forced them to join us during the Unity”, Blueberry agreed with a neutral face.

“That does not matter. We killed them for reasons. Because even on the beginning they opposed us. And joining us is the greatest gift a pony can receive. All our actions, no mather how brutal, had been necessary and good.”

Blueberry seemed like she wanted to argue but got caught off guard by Crystal who changed the subject out of the sudden.

“We only have two tents. One of them belongs to Zitrus and the other is a two-pony sized one. Zitrus actually bought it for me and Blueberry. But since you are with us now, we thought that you could share the larger one with me.”

That sounded good for us as we did not mind sharing a tent with a sister. Even though the idea of using a pony tent did not pleased us. But one question remained.

“What about you, dear sister?”, we addressed Blueberry.

“I will share Zitrus’ tent with him”, she said.

We opened our eyes in horror. His tent was barely large enough to fit two ponies. Let alone if one of them is an alicorn.

“His tent?! You share the tent with a scum?! And have you ever checked his tent? That one is so small that you two will have body contact all night long!”

Blueberry blushed a bid when she responded. “Yes, I know. But I've known him since a while now. And I trust him enough. It will just be normal contact like friends have and nothing more.”

We tried to process such a statement. But we failed. Even our mouth we could not close. We just stared at her like a fish out of water.

“Daaaaw, isn’t that cute? Our dear sister just wants to cuddle a bit with Zitrus”, Crystal laughed. Blueberry herself only blushed more.

We swear if he touches her, this night will put him to his last rest, we thought.

Sharing the tent with our green sister went quite well. Truth be told, we had trouble to fall asleep. We always had opened one eye and there listening if there had been any sound coming from the other tent with Blueberry and Zitrus in it. But it was silent. After some time our eyes had closed on their own.

We looked in front of us. We were the backmarker of the group. Zitrus was walking in the front, leading the way. The very idea that we actually followed such scum was going very much against our fur. In our mind we repeated the same sentence over and over again just to tell us that we are not such low standard.

We do not follow this worm, we follow our sisters. We do not follow this worm, we follow our sisters. We do not…

“Wait, there are some ponies behind this hill”, Crystal suddenly said and stopped. She pointed a hoof at a smaller hill right in front of us. Truth be told we could not hear anything. Most likely her telepathic abilities helped our green sister.

All four of us sneaked on top of said hill and peeked over it. There were three ponies and one zebra walking in a line. We found the slavers.

Upfront walking was a taller unicorn mare. She had a short amber mane, dark green coat, together with a dark green shirt and shoulder protection. She also had a heavy revolver holstered. The second one was an earth pony stallion with a red coat and a messy light green mane. He carried the supplies of the group in some saddlebags. A chain was connecting his hoof with the collar around the neck of the zebra who was walking behind him. The zebra was female and had her head down in defeat. Most likely she was a captive from the group. Her hooves were also chained together. A simple trick to make the prisoner able to walk and follow but not to run away. And the last one of the group was again an earth pony mare. She had a battle saddle with a semi automatic shotgun attached, a helmet which covered her whole head except of the muzzle. She wore a vest that went from her shoulders all the way down to her flanks. Protecting everything, except her legs. Small calibre rounds would most likely not harm her.

But that will not safe her from us. We thought with a grim face.

In general, the whole view gave us a pissed mood. Even though we hated zebras as well, we had to help her because we were sure our sisters would insist.

“Alright, let’s go kill them and free this stripe”, we said.

“Hold on Savage!”, zitrus said before we could go to action.

“What is it now?”, we harshly asked him.

“If we do this then we do it my way. Which means we try to avoid any kind of fight, blood or death. We will try to talk with them first and only if that fails we choose violence. Clear?”

We looked at zitrus dumbfucked.

“You are kidding, right? You want to talk with slavers? Trying to get a peaceful solution out of it?”

Zitrus nodded and said: “Blueberry will turn you three invisible. I still can use your help, especially when the situation escalates. But first try to make yourself hidden. If the slavers see three alicorns approaching, they most likely will instantly go into combat mode.”

Blueberry gave a nod while we still looked like somepony tried to explain us the stupidest plan. Most likely because it was. But then we gave a snort out of our nostrils.

“Fine, it is not like we would risk something we didn’t want to get rid of anyways.”

Zitrus said nothing to our statement. Instead, he set himself into movement towards the slavers.

Blueberry’s horn lit up and shorty after we three were invisible.

Let’s get into position, Crystals said to us in our mind.

Author's Note

It is so hard to write in "we" and "us" when there is only one pony...
Still, a chapter i personally really like how it turned out to be.
