a soldiers job never ends
Load Full StoryNext ChapterCOLE THE SOLDIER
Cole was holding an MK 11 mod 0 while watch some of his squad mates walking around stabbing dead bodies to insure, they were dead. Cole looked away and saw the sunrise and looked down and remembered a something he said as a kid, “When I grow up, I want to help people and make this world a better place.” Cole with a tear in his eye fell on his gun and sadly sniffed looking at the bodies he killed. Cole radioed into Command, “Hotspot 1, this is cold front 3. We have disposed of the bodies and dug the grave for them.”
A girly voice replied, “Cold front 3, this is Hotspot 1 bury the bodies and come back to base.”
Cole heard whispering from his squad mates and then felt a sharp pain in his side.
His friend was shot, and Cole was stabbed in the side where the body armor wasn’t protecting him. Aguste, Tyler, and ford radioed into Hotspot 6 about tying up loose ends. Cole feeling the knife being pulled out and Aguste say, “Funny, isn’t it? You figured it out too late to save your buddy and yourself.” Aguste snapped his fingers and the other two brought lighter fluid and gasoline. Cole bleeding out and struggling to speak mumbled something.
Ford walked up to Cole asked, “What?”
Cole whispered, “I got your gun, dumbass.”
Ford, shocked got shot in the head and Cole put two more bullets in Aguste and Tyler. Before Cole could radio in on the betrayal started to pass out. Aguste was holding a lit match and the lighter fluid and gasoline caught up in flame and Cole started to burn, Cole feeling the heat and pain of the fire couldn’t help but scream in pain. That’s when Tyler stood back up and said, “Badass, I figured you to be a fake but that sense of [Duty] is definitely worthy of being one of the three to make the chosen one.”
Tyler tried to steal Cole’s soul, but his soul had a layer around it that made it untouchable and disappeared to the dimensional crack where he was sent to a random pony world. Cole fell into the new world and appeared in a forest confused and trying to understand. Cole walked around the forest and wondered where he was. Cole thought, “Wasn’t I just being burnt alive. How did I get here.”
Cole before he could do anything fell over and woke up in a black void with two guys talking.
Zero said, “There we go!”
Cole looked around and thought out loud, “Where am I.”
Trace replied, “In [Darkness]’s void which he brought us here.”
Cole thinking, “I thought I was going to hell, but I’ll take this over hell.” Cole, shrugged, asking, “And you are?”
Trace said, “I’m Trace the third also known as the one who holds infinite [Kindness] and that’s Zero the second or he who created endless [Darkness].”
Cole listening to them and stood there in an awkward amount of time in silence then said, “Oh, my bad. I’m Cole the first. I guess the one filled with a sense of [Duty].”
Cole heard a familiar voice say, “Your different because you all come from alternate realities or dimensions as it were.” The other two moved over to Cole’s side and saw Tyler walk out of the black void. Tyler laughed and smiled and then said, “Zero didn’t bring you guys here, I did. Zero is strong just not strong enough to dimensional dream walk, yet.”
Zero asked, “Who are you?”
Tyler replied, “Where are my manners! I’m such a bad host for not introducing myself. I’m the evil you’re trying to get rid of or in this case your villain or the prophesized evil that needs three to vanquish one to bring him here to vanquish me or my name is Tyler the forgotten or the immeasurable [Evil].”
Cole was confused and asked, "I'm not positive anything you just said made since, why do we need to come together to become one."
Tyler laughed uncontrollably and replied, "Because you losers can never beat me without becoming one."
Zero wondered, "What makes these three attributes special?” Tyler smirked and shook his head and replied, "If Mason hasn't told you now. Then you three will never beat me."
Trace, pissed, retorted, "Yes, we will, and we will get our happy endings." Tyler replied, "Now I know Mason hasn't told you three the prophecy yet." Trace, Cole, and Zero all looked at one another in confusion and each of them faded out of existence.
Cole reappeared in a forest with these weird cutesy animals only came up to the middle of his thigh. Cole confused looked at them and in a confused tone said, “What.”
All the ponies looked at Cole and Cole looking at them in an awkward amount of silence.
The cutesy animals blinked and then started screaming and ran away. Cole surprised flinched for a second and then stood there watching every single one of these animals run into their homes and other running into each other. Cole saw a few kids walking around and not realizing Cole’s presence. Cole watched them talk to one another about some random stuff.
A purple animal’s ran up to the younger animals with a group of other animals. Cole sat down and watch these creatures in a conversation and then started to glow and a rainbow came out and arced its way down on to Cole. The rainbow beam hit Cole and pasted through him almost immediately all the creatures looked shocked, and Cole’s body started feeling a level of heat increased and Cole’s head started swelling with information and he fell over and the heat was getting to an unbearable state. Cole then started to feel dizzy and tingly, he started to understand what the animals were saying. Cole felt the rainbow disappear and his body stopped heating up, he heard the pink animal ask the purple animal, “Is it dead, Twilight?”
The purple animal replied, “Pinkie, you can see his back going up and down. I’m pretty sure this creature is alive.”
Cole looked up at the animal and retorted, “I understood you.”
The blue animal surprised replied, “What, it can understand us.”
Cole looked at them and asked, “Where am I?”
The purple animal replied, “I suppose introduction is in order, since we can understand each other.”
Cole responded, “Well, I guess I should go first since I sort of showed up out of nowhere. My name is Cole, and your names are.”
The purple creature said, “I’m Twilight Sparkle and these are my friends, Rarity, Apple Jack, Flutter Shy, Pinkie Pie, and Rainbow Dash.”
Cole asked, “So are your names unique to the tattoo on your butts or is it just you girls who have tattoos?”
Twilight, confused, replied, “Tattoo, oh you mean our Cutie Marks these are the marks to show what our talents are and what our jobs are.”
Cole pointed at Apple Jacks mark and responded, “So if you have a mark like hers does that mean you work with or are proficient apples then.”
Twilight said, “Correct.”
Cole asked, “And now that leaves the names in question. Are your names given to you at birth or are you granted your name by some sort of God?”
Twilight, interested, retorted, “Is your name given to you by a God?”
Cole replied, “Well, no I assumed your names were because they seemed like they were. I don’t know the customs of this world and the many rules it could have so sorry if I was wrong .”
Twilight smirked and replied, “Well the rules of this world aren’t that much different to a sophisticated thing such as yourself.”
Cole retorted, “I’m a human if your confused what my species is, and I evolved from ape to a higher state of being.”
Twilight made a note pad appeared and wrote down information and said, “Does that mean you can use magic and have a higher level of intellect.”
Cole, in Latin, replied, “Nullam magicam modo altiorem intellectum et altiorem sollertiam digitorum meorum basim.”
Twilight, confused, asked, “What did you just say?”
Cole replied, “I said, I can’t use magic, but I have a higher intellect and a higher proficiency with my fingers.”
Rarity asked, “Do you speak any other languages?”
Cole, in another language, replied, “Puedo, pero solo como otros 5 o 6 idiomas, Rareza.”
Rarity blushed and retorted, “Oh my such a gentleman.”
Cole turned and started looking around and asked, “What is that?”
Twilight, looked more confused, replied, “What is it you’re looking at?”
Cole looking at the magic particles he could see pointed at the magic particle and retorted, “This thing it looks like some sort of particle that’s not on in my memory of the periodic table.”
Twilight uses a magic spell to look through Coles eyes and saw what he was pointing at and noticed the magic particles.
Twilight, surprised, said, “I thought you couldn’t see or use magic?”
Cole replied, “I can’t or at least I shouldn’t be able to use magic or that sort of thing.”
Twilight responded, “It might have something to do with the magic friendship laser. There is a possibility that the laser edited or altered your body and allows you to see our magic or even use it possibly.”
Cole looked at Twilight and could see certain magic going into her horn. Cole said, “That makes sense my chest did start to hurt when I was being hit by that rainbow laser. Plus, I’m pretty sure my eyes were open so it wouldn’t be too far off to see explain this hypothesis and theoretically speaking.” Twilight doing a little jig as if Cole was speaking her language watched her in confusion.
Pinkie Pie giggled and said, “Twilight does this when she learns knowledge or something new based on the information given.”
Cole nodded and said, “Pinkie Pie, right? What’s your special talent I’d say balloon making from the mark, but your name says a different story?”
Pinkie Pie started laughing and replied, “Nope, I’m the party planner extraordinaire!”
Cole smirked and said, “Then I guess I’ll go to you for my parties then, and you are Rarity correct?”
Rarity blushing and replied, “That is right, my special talent is fashion.”
Cole asked, “What sewing skills can use? I’m more particle to catch stitch and a running stitch. I know running stitch is for beginners but its rather easy to use in my case.”
Rarity, shocked, said, “I didn’t think a gentle stallion such as yourself would know things like this.”
Cole retorted, “I know a thing or two about fashion and sewing, I’m just as capable to bake as well.”
Rainbow Dash said, “Yeah, so your more of a prissy human than?”
Cole responded, “I’m not that prissy, I’m just as capable of working out, and carrying heavy things.”
Rainbow Dash retorted, “Prove it!” Cole walked over to a boulder twice the size of Rainbow Dash. Cole picked it up with relative ease, and the to demonstrate his strength he started overhead pressing it and dropped it next to him.
Cole looked at Rainbow Dash and said, “It’s not about being prissy Rainbow Dash. It’s about the expanse of craft and skills.”
Rainbow Dash, flustered, replied, “I guess you're right. I’m wrong.”
Apple Jack said, “I reckon you have other skills and such?”
Cole smirked and replied, “I do have other skills up my sleeve but for now I would settle for a glass of water and maybe some food.”
Twilight, after writing her notes down, said, “We can take him to the Library and Pinkie can you get some food from Sugar Cube Corner.”
Pinkie nodded and ran off and Cole walking to a big tree in the middle of town. Cole looked at Flutter Shy and asked, “Say I don’t think I asked you what your talent is?”
Flutter Shy whispered, “I work with animals.”
Cole replied, “That’s pretty cool to work with animals.”
All the girls stopped in shock and Rainbow Dash said, “You can hear her speaking!”
Cole replied, “Yeah, you guys can’t?”
Rainbow Dash retorted, “It took all of us a little while to understand what she was saying in her whispering voice.”
Cole nodded and asked, “Flutter Shy, what’s your favorite animal to work with. I prefer dogs and cats, but I’ve never shied away from animal that needed love.”
Flutter Shy perked up and replied, “I like bunnies and for the majority of the animals I have I love them all really.”
Cole said, “If you need help watching them or help, I can help.”
Flutter Shy nodded in approval and Cole walked into the library and looked around and said, “This is a quaint little Library Twilight.”
Twilight smiled and said, “Well, thanks but I don’t technically own or make it I simple live here under the condition I learn friendship lessons from Celestia my mentor and the Princess of Equestria.”
Cole, confused, asked, “Princess? Shouldn’t she be a Queen if she is running the country.”
Twilight sighed and replied, “I get that from somebody who came from another world but it's not so simple to explain.” That’s when another voice with a more regal tone from behind, said, “I believe it would be easier to explain that information on my side.”
Cole looked at the voice and saw a white colored pony creature with multi-colored hair. Cole looked at her and said, “Sorry if I offended you by asking a question like that but it seems rather weird to only be a Princess instead of a Queen.”
Celestia, in a gentle smile, replied, “It has to do with my mother not passing the authority of power down to me or my sister. So, we went with the power being split between each other. I guess you know a little about me. I think it's fair if you tell me a little about you.”
Cole replied, “I suppose, my name is Cole, and I am supposed. I had two brothers growing up and I have a lot of other skills but it's easy to talk about, but I think that can wait.”
Celestia giggled and said, “I would have loved to hear more but there is something I need to give you thanks to an entity named Mason handed to me.” Celestia handed Cole a crystal and a piece of paper. Cole took the paper and the crystal and started to read the paper and the word on it said, “Break the crystal.” Cole looked at the crystal and broke it and turned into powder and the powder slowly went into Cole and forcing him into a sleep and that’s when Cole entered the void, but it was a white void this time.
Cole looked around and saw Mason sitting down and meditating. Cole looked at Mason and said, “Why is this happening? What is this place and who is Tyler? What is this entity that the three of us create he was talking about?”
Mason opened his eyes and replied, “You are the first and one filled with [Duty] and can keep a secret. Tyler is a fourth wall breaking entity given those powers by our creator. Tyler unhappy with his story because of how our creator was doing things decided he would become the very [Evil] he was fighting. Tyler was given the power to absorb and copy certain traits from any person. Tyler still angry at the creator copied and absorbed to traits of villains and other beings giving him powers and immeasurable [Evil]. He thought he was better than the creator, so he fought by corrupting powerful beings from other dimensions and having them go to pure dimensions that the creator loved and corrupted them hurting the creator.”
Cole listened and then said, “What’s with the Three become one prophecy?”
Mason replied, “The creator was able to come back with any three version of us but in order for him to create the prefect body with his full power he needed specific things [darkness] created in infinitely and an endless amount of [Kindness] and a body filled with [Duty], with these three [blank]’s. We could create his body and help us remove the [Evil].”
Cole, confused, asked, “The next thing is that [blank], what is that and what’s the purpose of it.”
Mason, smirked, replied, “The [blank] is a rank system of our strongest and most powerful trait given to us by the creator. If Tyler gets his hands on the opposites of these traits, he can create the traitor who is the thing the creator banished to the negative zone.”
Cole responded, “So you guys need me and the other two to create him. What about the opposite versions of us?”
Mason replied, “The opposite traits are [Lightness], [Rudeness], and [disloyalty] these opposites can make the traitor.”
Cole asked, “Who is the Traitor?”
Mason replied, “The traitor was once an entity like the creator with the same ambitions as the traitor kept making more and more, he believed he was owned his own multiverse web, but the creator noticed the worlds he made were dark and all and all unpleasant. The creator noticed the traitor was secretly communicating to the lover who was cheating on the creator. The friend told the creator, the creator decided to banish the traitor, and the lover to the negative zone. The creator and the friend renamed the lover to the cheater. The traitor pissed argued to the creator about the rename and the creator not wanting to hear the traitors rage broke the window to see him and the cheater who have stayed in the negative zone. The traitor and the cheater created Tyler before the events beforehand and the creator didn’t want to destroy Tyler. The creator simply wanted Tyler to live a simple normal life and Tyler was a creation of the traitor and the cheater so he had overpowered abilities and not enough drawbacks to his character and the creator couldn’t control Tyler. The traitor must have a connection to Tyler because he started trying to collect the opposites of the creator to bring the traitor back and the cheater to follow along with him.”
Cole listening to the info presented to him wondered some things and held off on asking any more questions. Mason looked around and noticed Cole starting to wake up and, in that moment, Mason stood up and touched Cole’s forehead. Cole felt a level of heat moving from Cole’s head to his chest down to his lower abdomen. Mason faked punched Cole which made him flinch and Mason responded, “That’s two for flinching!”
Mason punched Cole twice forcing him to wake up. Cole woke up and said, “Calm down with the strength of those punches.”
Cole looked around and saw the creatures looking at him and Cole asked, “How long was I out for?”
Twilight replied, “Like 40 minutes nothing to long really. Why did you say that last bit?”
Cole responded, “Mason punched me awake to be honest. I thought the information he gave me was interesting, but it should be shared with the other two.”
Twilight retorted, “There are more of you out there?”
Cole replied, “No, I have a telepathic connection that allows me to talk to two other guys in the multiverse and clearly in other dimensions.” Twilight unable to respond fell over in an overload of information and fainted. Cole watched this happen and saw Celestia sitting at the balcony. Cole walked over to her and sat down with her and watched her stare mindlessly.
Cole asked, “What are you thinking about? You look out of it.”
Celestia, flinching, replied, “I’m just a little scared to go back to the castle.”
Cole said, “That’s understandable, it usually starts with a single step.”
Celestia, confused, responded, “How do you know what I’m talking about?”
Cole chuckled and replied, “Most problems start off as a mountain or a cliff but as long as you take the first step. It becomes relatively a matter of perspective.”
Celestia giggled and looked away to watch the other ponies move the clouds and just relaxed to feel the breeze. Cole looked around and just enjoyed the view and scenery and the sounds of the towns folk just working.
Pinkie Pie bounced out to the table and saw Cole and Celestia acting like one another. Pinkie Pie watched quietly and then tapped Cole’s shoulder and dropped some pie and cake on the table. Cole smiled and whispered, “Thank you, Pinkie.”
Pinkie blushed and whispered, “Your welcome, Cole.”
Cole pulled out a chair and sat it next to him and patted it to indicate Pinkie Pie to sit next to him. Pinkie walked to the seat and sat next to him. Cole scratching her behind her ear and her chin. Pinkie immediately rested her head on Cole’s lap and Cole unconsciously scratched Pinkie behind her ear and the top of her head.
Celestia looked over to see the desserts on the table and noticed Cole petting Pinkie Pie and still looking out. Celestia cutting herself a piece of cake and asked, “What do you think of my little ponies?”
Cole chuckled and replied, “Is that what you guys are. I thought you guys were mini horses.”
Celestia giggled and retorted, “That’s funny, and was a close guess. Might I add you are taking this surprisingly well?”
Cole said, “I was killed and lit on fire in my dimension before showing up. I’ll take talking ponies with magic over that life.”
Celestia, with a stunned face, asked, “What kind of life did you live?”
Cole, looked away and in a sad tone, replied, “One filled with [Duty].”
Celestia looked intently at Cole and retorted, “Was it? It seems like the loyalty you provided was met with hostility and pain.”
Cole shrugged and replied, “In my line of work it was you either cooperate or your next of kin was sent to your family early. I was never really given a choice since I was a slave.”
Celestia and Pinkie Pie now sad and looking at Cole as if Cole was intentionally trying to hurt there feeling. Cole looked away and said, “I was a slave and had to kill everyone on the hit list. I was a gun, and nobody even cared about me.” Cole beginning to laugh for a couple of seconds then started to tear up and cry. Coles tears kept flowing and unable to speak anymore and sit there and cry. Pinkie and Celestia hugged him and tried to make him feel better. Cole with his head held down whispered, “I just want to feel needed and loved. I have never once ever been loved.”
Celestia responded, “I think I can help with that.”
Cole looked up and still sniffling wondered, “Why, was I feeling the rush of emotion when he stopped feel anything for the longest time.”
Celestia said, “I’ll give you a week and then I’ll send my sister here so she can learn from you.”
Cole replied, “I’ve never taught anyone. But it will only take at least a month or two to make my house. What am I going to teach your sister?”
Celestia responded, “Really it could be anything I just want her to open up and be comfortable being around every pony.”
Cole said, “That’s all well and good but what happens if she gets attracted to me or only finds me the only comfortable being to talk to, that doesn’t even go into what happens if certain ponies start causing trouble and she bursts with rage?”
Celestia giggled and started laughing and said, “I didn’t think you would be stating stuff like that. I don’t know about the if she’s attracted to you, but we could count on Twilight helping her open to the town’s ponies here, the outrage could be handled if you tried to calm her down.
Cole shrugged and got up and wiped his eyes then left. Cole felt a gaze on him and immediately turned and looked around. Cole unable to shake the weird feeling of something watching him. He looked around and then saw a shadowy figure in the forest line with glowing eyes and that’s when Cole blinked and the shadowy figure disappeared, he looked around and that feeling of being watched disappeared. Cole snapped back to reality and Celestia moved to the front of his face saying something. Cole’s eyes were blurry, and his expression was slack.
Celestia tapping Cole’s shoulder and then shaking him said, “Can you hear me, Cole. Are you alright.”
Cole blinked a few times and immediately gasped for air and accidentally bopped Celestia’s snout with his nose. Celestia worried asked, “Are you ok?”
Cole, still touching Celestia’s snout with his nose, said, “Your eyes make you look really cute.”
Celestia turned red a little and retorted, “Thank You and are you ok?”
Cole looked around and replied, “I think, I’m not positive because something is driving me to follow it into the forest line.”
Celestia looked over to where Cole was pointing and, in that moment, Celestia covered them both in magic and teleported them to the forest and that’s when Cole immediately went quiet and started moving to where the shadowy figure was making him go. Celestia, not focused on Cole, said, “So, where is it telling you to go now…………….” Celestia looked around and noticed Cole was walking deeper into the forest and Celestia ran over to Cole. Celestia looked at Cole who looked like a zombie.
Celestia followed Cole tell he reached a clearance and stood in the middle of the clearance and Celestia still in the forest looked at Cole waiting for something to happen. The ground around Cole started glowing and Runic symbols started spinning around him and, in that moment, Cole entered the white void again. Mason facing away from Cole and said, “My plan has nothing to do with bring back the [Creator] he is not the one I want to revive.”
Cole walked over to Mason and stubbed his toe. Mason turned around and said, “Oh shit, my bad here let me help you.” Mason walked over and touched Cole’s forehead and everything around him in the white void changed and he could see all around him and it looked like a regular home. Cole walked around the coffee table that he stubbed his toe on and saw two picture frames, he picked up the first one and said, “Who are these guys?”
Mason looked at the photo Cole was holding and replied, “Those guys are my brothers in the dimension, I entered.”
Cole inspected closer and retorted, “Why do they have human physiques?”
Mason chuckled and said, “That’s just luck of the draw really.”
Cole put the photo frame back down and noticed the second picture and it was a photo of Mason in a tuxedo and Celestia in a wedding dress and they were both kissing.
Cole asked, “Did you get married?”
Mason walked over to Cole and grabbed the picture frame and replied, “I did. But it didn’t last. I was forced to enter the dimensional plane. The only thing I know is she was pregnant with my kids and that was as long as 30 years ago.”
Cole looked at Mason sad and said, “That’s why you don’t trust the [Creator].”
Mason nodded and retorted, “I met the [Chosen One] and he said as long as I help him, he would stop this whole war of shit and whatever.”
Cole asked, “What about the factions of [Evil] and Union of the [Creator] we will have to fight them.”
Mason laughing loudly and replied, “I like that never had a name for those that I wanted to fight but you said it perfectly. I have around 9 guy’s that will join us in this battle against the two. I have given all nine of them my power, so they are pieces to create similar powers like mine.”
Mason walked up to Cole and twisted Cole’s nipples to wake him up.
Cole in pain screamed, “What the Fuck! Why is he always doing stuff like that.”
Celestia with a surprised face looked at Cole and asked, “Are you alright? You’ve been standing here for three hours, and those symbols have been spinning around you faster and faster tell the symbols entered your body and then you woke up and screamed.”
Cole looked around and saw the aura colors all around and looked at Celestia and saw a warm inviting light around her. Cole in that moment asked, “Can I hug you?”
Celestia blushed and replied, “I’m ok with that but why?”
Cole replied, “You have an inviting color of warmth to be honest.”
Celestia, confused, said, “Color?
Cole, flustered, replied, “It’s a beautiful sunset with a summer warmth radiating from you.”
Celestia blushing harder, she sat on her flank and then opened her arms up and Cole when in for a hug, Cole hugging her and feeling the color of Celestia’s warm and some of that color entered his body and Cole felt relaxed.
Cole pulled away from Celestia and said, “Give me a week and then your sister can come over to learn.”
Celestia, still blushing, replied, “Ok, is it alright if we hang out sometimes as well?”
Cole shrugged and said, “I’m ok with it. I do need you to tell me in advance when you want to hang out.”
Cole walked back to the library to go to bed and Celestia teleported back to Canterlot. Cole entered the library and saw two guys standing in the middle of the library. Cole looked at them and noticed one of the figures auras colors were blue and the others was blood red. Cole noticed they were talking about something and then saw Cole.
The girl with the blue aura asked, “Where is Mason?”
Cole looked confused and replied, “Who?”
The guy with blood red aura, walked over and held Cole up off the ground, retorted, “Let’s just kill him! He obviously knows but we should send a message to that bastard that’s trying to meddle with the [Traitor] and [Creator].”
The girl, pissed, said, “Don’t you say my god's name you scummy bastard.” The girl grabbed the guy’s arm and broke it. The guy in pain for a couple of minutes. Let go of Cole and backed off. The girl said, “My name is Melissa, and this is Jack. We are from the two opposing sides, I’m from the “[Creator]’s Alliance” and Jack’s from the [Traitor]’s faction.”
Cole rubbing his chest looked at Melissa and retorted, “Even If I knew who Mason was and where he is do you think I would spill the information and seriously who is Mason and why do you want him so badly?”
Melissa, with an evil grin, said, “Mason stole something from both of our groups, and we want them back.”
Cole, unimpressed, said, “That doesn’t answer my question. Melissa, in fact that’s incredibly fucking vague.”
Jack replied, “The items stolen from us have nothing to do with you if you don’t know where he is. Then let's just kill him and go to the next.”
Melissa shook her head and said, “We can’t unless you can face the consequences.”
Cole uninterested in the conversation of theirs going back and forth started walking to the bookshelf and started reading a random book. Melissa grabbed Jack and said, “If you want to fight Kevin on this then be my guest.”
Jack retorted, “So what if Kevin kills me, I bet Andrew would avenge me.”
Melissa stopped and grabbed Jack’s chin and pointed his head to Cole who was sitting in a chair reading.
Cole looked up from his book and asked, “Oh, are you two lovebirds done with the bickering? I thought I should wait for you two to since you guys have such an important conversation going on.”
Melissa, grinding her jaw in anger, said, “We aren’t dating. We may not be able to kill him but that doesn’t mean we can’t beat the shit out of you.”
Cole looked at Melissa and then at Jack and sent a right hook into Jacks chin. Jack watching the fist move slowly backed up and then uppercut Cole. Melissa watching Jack uppercut Cole jumped above Cole and axe kicked him in the stomach. Cole unable to see what happened felt the pain in his body.
Cole a couple of hours later woke up from the sound of Twilight walking in on Coles battered and bruised body. Cole looked at Twilight and said, “Say I can’t move my body is there a reason for that.”
Twilight sat next to Cole and replied, “YOUR ARMS AND LEGS ARE MANGLED! HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?”
Cole said, “Honestly, I’m surprised I didn’t scream from the pain. I was visited by two people who were looking for something………” A bright light of runic symbols and a barrier wrapped around Cole. The mangled arms and legs of Cole started slowly healing and the bruises on his body started fading. When the runic symbols and barrier disappeared, he stood back up and laughed and flexed his arms and legs and felt the cracks and pops like he was stretching.
Twilight writing down and drawing what she saw in her letter to Celestia.
Cole sitting back on the chair and started reading, he got to page 70 of the book and Celestia, burst into the library, asking, “Where is he?”
Cole looked up from his book and replied, “I’m right here!”
Author's Note
This took me longer than expected because of my brother demotivating me and trying to find the motivation and direction. I don't blame I blame myself.
