Fall of Equestria: For Honor (revamp)

Wulfric lay in bed with his two lovers, snoring contently with them in his arms. Unbeknownst to them, an intruder had slunk their way into their bedroom. The assailant stood at the foot of the bed and went for Wulfric. "Incoming!"

Wiglaf landed on Wulfric with a plop, startling the three while the young buck laughed. "Wiglaf! What are you doing?"

"Waking up my favorite Uncle for breakfast," Wiglaf said while looking at the two mares covering themselves. "Hi aunt AJ. Hi aunt Dash." Wiglaf greeted while getting in between them. "Mom's making pancakes."

"And you came to wake us up huh? Well aren't you a little sweetheart?" Applejack said as Wulfric got up to hold his nephew.

"Well next time, try not to land so hard on my gut or I'll throw up on you."

"Eeww!" Wiglaf giggled as he hugged his uncle. The scene was so heartwarming that when both mares saw him holding Wiglaf, they almost looked like father and son. A thought that seemed pleasant to the both of them.

"Alright ya little runt, go back downstairs and tell them we're coming." Wulfric smiled while ruffling his nephews head. Wiglaf gave a little salute before doing his best to get off the bed in a hurry and headed out the door.

As the three got dressed, both AJ and Dash were smiling contently as they each gave Wulfric a peck to the cheek before heading downstairs to find their friends gathered for breakfast.

"Hey guys! You missed all the fun last night." Pinkie smiled while decorating her pancakes with whip cream and strawberries.

"We were kinda...busy." Applejack said while seating herself next to Fluttershy.

"Busy?" Sigrid asked while giving her son a plate of pancakes. "Would this business involve our dear friend Wulfric and a bed?"

"And those loud noises. I thought for sure the palace was haunted," Hilda joked while pouring syrup on her breakfast.

"Girls, no need to tease them," Arminius told his wives before winking at his old friend.

"I guess we went a bit overboard." Wulfric admitted before being given his own stack.

"So now that we've secured our alliance with the Changelings, what should our next move be?" Arminius asked his friend before sipping some tea.

"We need to meet with Princess Luna at the ruins mentioned in the scroll, perhaps she'll be willing to help us reach the kirin lands."

"She'll definitely help us." Dash said after taking a huge bite of her pancakes.

"I'm more worried about the ponies she's with."

"You mean the one with the burned skin." Wulfric said to his new mare while crossing his arms.

"I'll admit, when I was around that messenger I felt uneasy; like he was ready to cut me down without hesitation."

"He might have if he were our enemy," Arminius pointed out. "But these are strange times. And strange times need odd allies."

"Or dangerous ones..." Wulfric said as they continued their meal and prepared to depart for the meeting area. Reluctantly, Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie agreed to escort Rainbow and Applejack to the ruins along with a few of the clans best warriors including Thora and Luta, Ryu would also be accompanying them as an envoy for the changeling kingdom.

The longship was now enchanted with a cloaking spell thanks to a few talismans crafted by the changeling mages as a gift from Queen Chrysalis.

"Now Ryu remember, maintain a cool head and do not draw your sword unless it is needed." Crafty Dodger said to his son in a stern manner as Ryu bowed to his father.

"Yes father."

"Go, make us proud." Chrysalis said with a smile as she sent him off.

"I will, mother," Ryu whispered before joining his comrades on the longships.

"Care to do the honors Wiglaf?" Arminius smiled as he handed his son the rope for the sails.

"Can I?" Wiglaf asked as his parents gave an approving nod while Wulfric stood on the bow of the longship.

"SET THE SAILS!" Once the sails were set, the ships left the docks and headed down the river. As they sailed, Arminius stood at the bow with his son and hummed a tune.

It wasn't long before all of the longships were singing and rowing in rhythm to the song as they glided down the river. Before long, they arrived on the southern edge of the Everfree forest and were already arming themselves after disembarking.

"Alright everyone, stay close and do not get separated. No telling what kind of beasts lurk in these woods..." Wulfric said while mounting his axe on his shoulder.

"Dad. Do you think we'll come across any monsters, like in the stories you and mom told me?" Wiglaf asked while getting his bow ready.

"I have no doubt about it, son," Arminius said while readying his axe.

But you..." Sigrid picked up her son and placed him back on the boat. "Will not be seeing them."

"Aww but mom!"

"No buts mister." Hilda wagged her finger as Wiglaf pouted and sat in the boat with a few others.

"You boys keep an eye on him." Arminius pointed his sword to the raiders guarding the boats before they marched into the woods.

"The ruins should be around here somewhere." Rainbow said as she lead the way with the girls following. Once they were far enough, Thora and Luta moved in from the sides and began to whisper.

"So how was he?" Luta asked as Rainbow gave a little smirk and blushed.

"The best fuck of my life," Rainbow answered with a slight skip in her step and grin that didn't seem to leave.

"And then some." Applejack sighed while using her new axe to cut through the foliage.

"By the way Rainbow, why didn't you want him to kiss you last night?"

"Do you know how many of those perverts stuck their tongues down my throat? Ugh, I felt like throwing up each time..." Rainbow said with disgust before her smile quickly returned.

"But when he did it, it was just..."

"Magical?" Thora smirked.

"Yeah."

“But seriously,” Luta placed a hand on Rainbow’s shoulder. “Do you still think all caribou are bad?”

"Well...I guess not all of you are bad." Rainbow said before spotting a stone tower in the distance.

"This is it! We're close."

“You know,” Thora hummed. “You somewhat remind me of his mother.”

"Really?" Rainbow was surprised.

"What was she like?"

“According to Wulfric, she was a spirited young doe,” Thora said. “Wulfric’s father often said she challenged him to a fight every chance she got. No other shield maid dared lift a finger against the chief, but she didn’t much care. One day, during a bout, she managed to knock him down with a single punch. That was how she won him over.”

“Wow…” Rainbow said.

“But get this. She had no intention of dating him!” Luta said. “All she wanted to do was prove females can be stronger than the males.”

"And that's what made him fall for her." Thora giggled.

"And when Wulfric was born, she was truly the happiest woman in the village and she loved her son with all her heart."

"What happened to her?" Applejack asked the two shieldmaids while making sure they weren't being eavesdropped.

"She...died during a terrible winter when Wulfric was only six. It broke his heart and that of our clan." Luta frowned in sadness.

"Oh..." Rainbow gave a sad frown. "How did he cope?"

"His father." Luta said as they continued their trek.

"He raised him with all the love and care in the world and made sure he would be strong enough to lead and that's when me and my sister came into the picture. We were just supposed to be his bodyguards but one night after too much mead things kinda got...steamy~."

"Uh huh." Applejack said with a raised brow.

"Hold up...you two popped his cherry?!" Rainbow said, trying not to laugh.

"And he ours." Thora smirked with pride.

"That was a night worth remembering~."

"Hold!" Wulfric shouted as the group came to a sudden halt.

"We're being watched..."

"Where?" Applejack asked as she looked around for any sign of movement.

"Everywhere..." Sigrid said as she brandished her spear.

"And here I thought my skills in stealth were perfected."

Suddenly a familiar alicorn princess to the ponies present appeared as though she materialised from shadow and suddenly several figures all adorned in leather and chainmail from head to toe and all wearing masks stepped out of hiding to surround the group.

The northlanders were ready to defend themselves when Arminius ordered them to stand down as Wulfric met the princess of the night halfway.

"I'm here as requested, your grace." Wulfric said as he bowed his head to Luna.

"So I see I am glad to see you accepted." Luna said as the surrounding figures moved to silently stand behind her.

"Then I'll get straight to the point. Join us in our campaign."

The moment Wulfric spouted those words, several of Luna's knights were ready to attack until their princess signaled them to halt.

"You must forgive my forces the don't exactly have a lot of...what are the words...trust for the caribou and to have you make a demand for me to assist you strengthens their opinion." Luna explained.

"We understand, your highness," Sigrid said while stepping up next to Wulfric and her husband. "From what we've seen, we see why you're cautious."

"Do we have you lot to thank for that display of barbarism in Ponyville then?" A knight spoke from under his mask.

"Yes that was us. Ragnar owed me a blood debt and he paid it in full." Wulfric said without a shred of remorse for his old enemy.

"Dainn will soon follow."

"And what then? Will you rule Equestria?" Luna asked as she listened to his answer intently.

"No." Wulfric replied almost instantly.

"Once that bastard is dead we will return home to rebuild. We still have many loved ones waiting for us to come back."

"Can we really trust the word of a northern savage?" Another of the knights asked aloud making some of the raiders reach for their weapons.

Arminius saw this as a challenge a stepped up to the knight. Raising his ax, he sunk it into the nearest tree and stared him down. "Our intentions are what we said they are. If you don't trust us." He held his arms before the knight. "Then take me, the leader of the Ghost tribe, as your prisoner till you find us trustworthy."

"Arminius no!" Wulfric protested but his friend urged him to let him handle the situation.

"If our words prove false then you may claim my head at any time. All I ask is that you show mercy to my clan and that of my friends."

"Princess Luna, wait." Applejack intervened in his behalf.

"I get it, you don't trust them especially after what we all went through but these are good and honest folk here."

"They saved our lives." Rainbow Dash added before holding Wulfrics hand in front of everyone.

Luna took her time to look between Applejack, Dash, Arminius, Wulfric, and every single clan member and pony that tagged along with them. After a long sigh, she nodded her head to her knight, making him back away. "For the time being, we will trust you. But know that it's only because of the word of the Element of Honesty and Loyalty. Cross us, and we'll make you all suffer."

"We wouldn't expect any less from you, your highness," Arminius bowed before the princess before retrieving his ax.

Sigrid took this opportunity to grab her husband's ear and pull him down. "You ever try that again, and your bed will be cold for a month!"

"Yes, dear," Arminius said while whimpering at his wife's treatment.

Some of the men laughed at the little couple squabble as Luna walked up to Applejack and Rainbow Dash to embrace them in a warm hug.

"Thank the heavens you're both safe. Are the others with you?" She asked out of concern.

"Pinkie and Fluttershy are at the longboats waiting for us." Applejack said before Luna noticed Ryu.

"A changeling..."

"Greetings princess, I am Prince Ryu son of Queen Chrysalis. I have come on behalf of the changeling kingdom to also propose an alliance."

"....Sieze him!" Without warning the knights suddenly surrounded Ryu with their spears trained on him, startling Wulfric and the others as they tried to stop them.

"What in Odins name is going on?!?" Wulfric demanded an answer as Luna trapped him in a barrier.

"Queen Chrysalis is wanted for treason against Canterlot, in fact she's also wanted in The Crystal Empire for kidnapping and impersonating my niece Cadence. Nearly sabotaged her wedding too." Luna answered as Rainbow and Applejack gave a sheepish grin to Wulfric.

"Uhh whoops?" Dash said as her lover facepalmed himself.

"That would have been very nice to know!" Arminius blared while bashing against the barrier.

"I assure you, my mother plans to pay for all war reparations if you'll hear me out." Ryu said as he slowly pulled out a scroll.

"Say the word your majesty and we'll end him right here." Another of her knights said as he prepared to give the order.

"Hmm...wait." Luna said before releasing the others.

"Let us at least see this message and if he tries anything...kill him."

One of the guard snatched the scroll from Ryu's grasp and handed it to Luna while the rest of the group breathed a sigh of relief.

"Anything else I should know?" Wulfric tapped his foot to his mares.

"Oh don't you start mister playboy." Applejack said while poking his chest.

"I'm still waiting to hear on how many more girls you got in the saddle before me and Dash!"

"Again what happened with me and Hilda didn't work out!"

They all looked at Hilda who shrugged. "He was alright, don't get me wrong. But, my heart just belonged to another," She said before leaning against Arminius.

"And what about your Bodyguards?" Dash asked while pointing to Thora and Luta.

"Well it's sort of a...friends with benefits thing?" Wulfric replied with the best answer he could think of.

"And what benefits they are~," Thora said while biting her thumbnail.

"Not that this isn't fascinating, but aren't we getting a little off-topic?" Luta asked while gesturing all around the group.

"Right, we'll discuss this later." Wulfric said as Luna finished reading the scroll.

"Well?"

"Hmm the proposition is interesting...I'll have to think about it. In the meantime, release him." The captain signaled his men to stand down while Ryu adjusted his armor.

"Much obliged."

"Before we go any further, is there any other reason why you would want to arrest or point your weapons at us again?" Arminius asked, hoping this would be the last time for a bit.

"None at the moment." Luna said while tucking the scroll away in her chest.

"If the changeling queen truly wishes to establish a more...diplomatic relationship then tell her I will meet her in a months time when my general has returned."

"Excellent. My mother will be pleased." Ryu said before Luna returned her attention to Wulfric.

"However, I am still unsure of you Sir Wulfric so I will offer you one last test."

"A test?" Wulfric inquired.

"Let me see into your memories and I will judge for myself whether you are an ally worthy of our trust."

Many of the raiders, including Arminius and his family were against this idea as they were unsure if this was a ploy for Wulfric to let his guard down but with the reassurance of his lovers, the chieftain agreed and even laid down his axe as a sign of good will.

"Now just relax and let me into your mind." Luna said as Wulfric closed his eyes and he felt himself becoming sleepy.

Luna then laid him down gently on the grass as she sat beside him and began to peer into his memories. What she saw in his mind was not what she had expected, inside were memories of him and Arminius playing as children, of his village and clan living happily but what stood out most was the memory of his mother.

As Luna watched his memories, she felt strangely happy to see the little stag being shown so much love and care before the memory changed to the day his mother died.

The memory showed Wulfrics mother laying peacefully on a funeral pyre as the little stag clinged to her cold body crying before he was gently carried away by his father.

"Don't be sad my son, your mother has gone to join the Valkyries in the great hall." Chief Hjalmarr said while stroking the back of his crying sons head.

"You will see her again but you must be brave and strong. Understood?"

The little stag nodded in response before watching the pyre being set ablaze by the shield maidens. Luna had never felt so sad for a northlander before and did not expect one such as Wulfric to feel such emotions but the next memories she saw had completely caught her off guard.

It was the night he claimed Applejack and Rainbow Dash as his lovers and despite it being a memory, the lewd moans and grunting she heard sounded all too real as she watched him take the two mares like a beast but noticed that they were not forced or restrained in any way.

"RRG! Fuck! girls I love you, I love you so much~!"

She heard him say while he pounded Applejacks flank.

After finally seeing enough, Luna released him from her spell and gently roused her from his sleep as the chieftain found himself laying on the grass with only the memory of him speaking to Luna as his most recent one.

"You have been through much...all of you have."

"The same can be said for you as well, your highness," Hilda said while looking at the state of both the Princess and the troops she leads.

"We have been on the run from Dainn's forces since the kingdom fell, trying to form a resistance but everywhere we go we find nothing but traitors." Luna said as her knights prepared to move out once more.

"Forgive my sudden departure but we must reach the southern border of The Crystal Empire to meet with Sir Bulwark."

"Who is this Bulwark you speak of?" Wulfric asked when she told them of the storm wall and its fall at the hands of Olaf and his forces.

"They were...burned alive?" Rainbow gasped in shock.

"We barely escaped ourselves..." One knight said as he revealed the burned skin of his arm.

"Hmmm Princess." Wulfric marched up to Luna with an idea that took everyone by surprise.

"Why not stay with us at the fort? We could use more help in defending it and your men know these lands almost as well as the changelings."

"That's a great idea hon!" Applejack said in approvement as did Rainbow.

"Brains and Brawn? What else you got for me~?" Rainbow flirted before he kissed her in front of the princess.

“As much as I appreciate the offer, including the fact that you have more than proven yourself, there is still one last task I have for you,” Luna said.

“And that is?” Wulfric asked.

“Save my pet possum,”

End.
