Chapters I layed in bed with Luna cuddling and having a conversation about the fallout of the battle. Celectia and Pinkie pie are in the room as well. I don't know why pinkie is here but it didn't matter. I was sir as wall hell.The rest of Twilight, Cadence, Shining and the rest were in the throne room fixing for Sombra’s trial. I was surprised that Sombra survived the fall.
“Man, that was a really ruff day. Me, Sombra and that whole battle. Oh god that was ruff.” I said.
Pinkie Pie hopped onto bed and asked. “Sam, I'm sorry about what happened.”
A guard came into the room and said. “General secretary. Yourneeded for the trial to a tend.” A massive smile came across my face realizing that I'm still in charge of the Crystal empire. I got up, put my catalyst on and walked down to the throne room. Pinkie Pie followed me. I walked all the way down there with a grin.
Once I got to the throne room I saw Grover, Crack, Shining Armor, the Alicorns, the guards and Sombra. Cadence seemed to be very pissed and Celestia looked very entertained. While everyone else seemed to just want it over with. I walked up the throne and sat on it. As I sat down I Sombra seemed to struggle but couldn't get free.
“Well then may the trial begane?” I asked. Everyone nodded their heads. “Well then. Let's keep it short and simple.”
Sombra was dragged by the guards. I hopped out of the throne and said.“Well, the trial is over. I have one last thing to do.”
As Cilestia and Cadence argue. me, Luna, and pinkie went for a walk. Twilight and Shining stayed back and watched the fight and the rest left right after the trial. As we walked something popped in my head.
“Hey Luna, what happened with blue blood’s manchen?” I asked.
After a while I got my back bag and we looped back to the throne room, then we saw Cadence facing away from Celestia. Celetia seemed very sad. Her ears were drooping and twilight seemed very shocked. Shining Armor was by cadence. It was probably one of those arguments.
“Sister, are you ok?” Luna asked in concern.
Twilight started to walk out of the room and we followed. I walked by Celestia trying to comfort her. I put one of my hooves on her shoulder and gently rubbed. Once we got out of the palace I decided to ask Pinkie and twilight. “Hey girls. Do you guys want to come with me?”
“Shore.” both said at the same time.
The royal sisters heard me but continued on. We went to the local bakery. When we were in the bakery there was a yellow cristal staelin with blue hair. He asked.
“What can we get you?”
I pulled out my reset book and wrote everything down, then took the cakes. We walked out of the bakery and went to the train station. Once we went to the train station we met up with the princesses.
“What did you get Sam?” Celestia asked.
She gave a smile and said. “Thank you.” then she spread her wings and all three of us. Pinkie Pie, Twilight, and I got a big warm hug. Luna walked in the train and soon all of us followed. Theater where Equestrian guards in the train. We took our seats. Twilight and pinkie took one side of the wagon while me, Celestia and Luna on the other. As the train left the city I took a good look at the city knowing it may be the last time that I'll be seeing it and Celestia ever sees her niece.
Author's Note
this is going to be the last chapter for a wile because I'm fixing to go to college. but hopefully I can add more in a later date, But I'm working on other things as well. i hooped you all had a nice summer.
“Ugh, wh-what happened last night?” I told myself in bed. I felt my body move in my bed, but something was off, way off. When I opened my eyes, my bed was not there, NOT in my dorm, NOT at the college, and NOT in Ohio! I was filled with terror then I fell off the bed and had a good look at myself. “What the HELL!” I said with massive concern that I was a horse-like creature. I tried to stand like a human but I fell over. I mumbled to myself “Ok don't walk like a person.” Then I stood on all fours and said to myself, “Ok don't panic Sam you are probably asleep and you're in bed in your dorm and at the college in Ohio." To test my theory, I bit my tongue. And I was wrong, this was real life and not a dream. I looked at the room I was put in. It looked kinda nice, like I was in a bedroom. Judging from my surroundings, I've been Sekaied. I don't think it's one of those harams, overpowered things nor where I get cut open for study. I have started to walk, but not well but then again I'm not used to a quadruped body. As I slowly walked and watched my steps, I saw a door going outside of the room and a closet door. So I walk up to the closet. When I walked up to it I asked myself. “How do I open the door?” It was one of those Handles that is elongated, where you turn the stick to open doors. So I lifted my front left hoof and put it on the handle. It grabbed it like a suction cup but at the same time, it wasn't. When I opened the door, it was empty. But the door itself had a mirror. I looked at myself. I had pale gray fur, my mane was dark Blue, and so was my tail, with green eyes. But I had my tattoo on my butt. It was the Warhammer 40k chaos symbol. It was on my right shoulder blade, but now it's bigger and on my left ass cheek.
As I examined my new body, I heard hoof steps from the other side of the bedroom door. I heard knocking. Then who or whatever is on the other side said.
"Are thee awoken?"
Then a blue ora generated around the handle, turning it and opening the door. There, a blue unicorn with wings and sparkly wavy mane. She was taller than me as well. "Good, now come with us." She told me. Her face seemed familiar but I can't tell. So I followed her out.
As I walked with her I asked. "What are you?"
We stopped at a double door. There were two horses in gold armor guarding it. One had wings and the other was a unicorn. Luna opened the doors with her ora horn thing. As we walked in, the guards stopped me then Luna told the guards. "He's with us." As so they let me through. When I got in the room there was a white alicorn with rainbow hair sitting on a throne. The throne room screamed royalty. There were windows with stained glass making pictures, purple rugs and all leading to the throne. Luna spoke to the white alicorn. "Sister, the one we summoned is awake and here to see you."
As I walked out of the door, I tripped over the purple rug, and thanks to Celestia's magic she saved me. "Thank you!" I told her. Then I went back to the bedroom I woke up in. As I got in, I saw a desk with a blank book and one of those music boxes on it. I walked up to it and looked at the book. Thanks to the fact the desk is in front of a window, I saw the whole city. I thought to myself. "Well Sam get used to this new world you're not going home so get used to it." As I opened the blank book, there was a note in it and I read it. It read. "Hey Sam, here's a journal for you from Twilight Sparkle. Ps: Pinkie pie says hi." "Thanks." I said to the book. I opened a drawer in the desk. There were plenty of pencils in it, so I grabbed one and started drawing. Then I heard someone or pony behind me.
Then he trotted out of the room. Luna looked at me. Her pupils were slit like a cat but when she blinked, her eyes turned back to normal.
"Are thee ok?" She asked me.
Then she left the room. I looked at the clock above the closet. It was 7:57 and looking out the window, the sun was gone and dark outside. I got ready for bed, I closed the window and doors and had to find the light switch to turn off the lights. As I drifted to sleep in bed. I heard somepony.
"Pss hey. Hey Sam."
As I closed the box, Twilight begged. "No no what!" I ignored her cries for attention. Close the box and put it in the drawer of the desk. When the music box was in the drawer her voice became muffled and I went back to bed.
"Dear Earth. Today I learned not to make deals with magic horses in your dreams. From Sam E.Nickels"
"Wakey wakey. Time to wake up." Celestia told me as I muttered in bed. Celestia used her magic to pull the blanket off of me. "Good morning princess." I told her. Then I got up and Celestia walked out of the room. "So that wasn't a dream." I told myself. As I got out of the room, I asked Celestia. "Where's the bathroom?". She looked at me from across the hallway and aimed her horn. Then the next thing I knew I was in a bathroom. "Thank you." I said to her even though I was in a different room than her. There was a shower, a sink, a toilet looking thing and a door behind me. I used the toilet thing and it did not have toilet paper but I didn't need it. It cleaned me with water. I was shocked by that function. Then I used the shower and instead of the faucet handle below the shower head, it was on the wall. The hot water was nice on my body. After I got done with the shower, I shook my body like a dog and got out of the room. The door leads to a bedroom. There was a large bed, a double door and a balcony. Then the door opened. There was Celestia and she walked up to me. I was impressed by her height. "Are you okay? You look like you've seen a wendigo." Celestia asked. I replied. "Ya it's just… you're taller than Luna."
"Oh most of my new subjects when they were this close to me usually have the same reaction."
As we walked down the hallways of the castle, I saw the guards protecting and the maids cleaning. When we made it to the dining room, it was an empty room with a long table with eight chairs, two at the ends and three on each side. There were pancakes with whip cream on them waiting for us. One of the two plates had a box next to it. I asked Celestia. "Um… Celestia, whose box is that?"
I opened the box and in it was a white crystal attached to a neckband. I asked. "What's this?" She replied "it's a catalyst." Then I sat down and put the catalyst on. As Celestia sat down and started to eat her pancakes, I looked at the civilware next to myplate of pancakes. I looked at it and wondered how to pick up the fork and knife. I started to imagine human hands grabbing them then I noticed a white aura on my catalyst and on the handles of the civilware. I used them to eat the pancakes.
"What in tarderes!" I heard from Celestia. I asked "What am I doing wrong?" Her jaw dropped.
After we got done with breakfast, we headed back to the bedroom and Celestia put on her jewelry. Then we headed to her office, there was a desk with a crapload of paperwork on it. She handed me some paperwork for my citizenship and a pencil. Of course I started to work on it so Celestia did hers as well. At 10:46, Luna was holding her cup of coffee and came into the room and said. "Good morning sister. Helping Sam with the paperwork?"
After they chatted for a little bit, Luna left the room. We finished our paperwork at 11:37. It was a long couple of hours but we got it done.
(Name: Sam. Family/second name: E.Nickel. Date of birth 980/Lun/15. Gender/Sex: Colt)
"Well what do we do now Celestia?" I asked.
Luna told me, of course, as one of her subjects I followed her. Afterwards we walked through the hallways of the castle,there was a double door but this one was wooden and normal height. Then Luna asked.
"Can thou open the doors?" Of course I used my new catalyst to open the doors. "Thank you." She told me. We walked to a desk and took a seat. Luna gave me a book titled. "Magic 101: The Basics of Manatheorem." So I opened it and started to read the first chapter. The first chapter was about mana. Mana is magic energy and where it possibly comes from. One of the theories comes from a different dimension. The second chapter was about how this mana is used in spells and spells are like some kind of script or program it runs. Ponies memorize these spells. Luckily, I was getting my minor's degree in programming. Sadly, if I make a script for an NPC I would need to make a body for it. It may be programming but sadly I have to actually build the thing first. Mana also can be bent by the will of the user. This part of magic allows telekinesis, but that is it. When I closed the book Luna asked with a glass of water.
"How much did thou learn?"
She set the glass on the table. So I grabbed the water itself, grabbed the hydrogen and ripped them off of the oxygen and put the hydrogen in a sphere above the glass. Forcing the hydrogen to make a small star, a bright light blinded the library. Luna started to panic and ran out of the library, but the star only lasted a minute. As I walked out of the library, somepony asked behind me.
"How did you do that?" She was a brown pegasus with a white mane in a maid outfit. I replied with "magic" then I went out of the library. As I walked out, I saw Luna. She was just standing there scared. When I approached her, two guards jumped in front of her. Then she said, "Oh no it's fine. He just spooked us." Then the guards lowered their spears. Luna asked, "Sam, how did you do that?" I replied, "Well I used my human knowledge and just used my telekinesis." Then we walked back to the library.
She handed me another book. "Races Across the World." I opened it and started to read it. There are ponies, griffins, zebras, hounds, sea ponies, kirin and changelings. Ponies are divided into three subraces: unicorns, pegasi, and earth ponies. Unicorns are able to do magic naturally with their horns. Pegasi can fly and they often live in the mountains. Earth ponies don't have any special abilities. Griffins are bird-like in appearance and they have claws to grab things. They can fly as well. Zebras are like earth ponies but they are often depicted as excellent alchemists and they are black and white striped. Hounds are canine like and their keen smell and hearing makes them great bounty hunters. Sea ponies are mermaids but instead of the top half of a human it's a pony. Kirin are like wood elves. They like trees and nature. Changelings are shapeshifters, able to blend in with other races. Thay are bug-like and feed off of mana as a second food source. They often live in hives ruled by a queen. After reading two or three chapters, I looked at the clock on the wall. It was 3:00 clock.
I asked Luna. "Are you hungry?"
I replied with,"Ya I'm the guy who got summoned by horse goddesses." And so we started to have a conversation with each other. Her name was Vera Jak. She worked as a maid in the castle. She lives with her twin sister, Rosey. She also asked questions about my world and what we humans are. She was both scared and interested in mankind from the roman empire to the germans landing on the moon and apparently most ponies around the castle can't stop talking about me Vera told me. Some are suspicious of me, while others want to talk to me and be friendly. But overall me being summoned is a bit of a mixed reaction for them. I also asked questions about their world as well. That tattoo on my ass was called a cutie mark and it represents the pony's personality and what makes them unique, some even consider it to be their destiny. But the tattoo on my butt is artificial so it is pretty much a blank slate. Her cutie mark was grapes and she's good at making wine. I also learned about the drinking age in Equestria and it was seventeen years old, the age of adulthood in Equestria as well.
After a couple of hours, that bastard Blueblood came along and started to insult Vera and me."Oh wow it's the peasant with some freak from another world."
After that, she left. As I walked out of the library I looked at the clock above the door. It was 7:12 and so I went out of the library to look for the sisters. As I looked for them, I noticed the castle was empty. As I walked around somepony bumped into me, I fell down while he just stood there and asked. "Are you ok?" While he handed me his hoof, I realized he was one of the guards of the castle. "Yes I'm fine. Umm… can you tell me where the princesses are?" He replied with. "Yeah sure." Then he escorted me through the castle. Soon enough we made it to a double door. "Here you go sir, they should be in that room over there." he told me and of course I said. "Thank you." Then he left. I knocked on the door. Then I heard Celestia say from the room. "Come in." I opened the door with my telekinesis and walked in. Celestia was laying in front of a fireplace reading a book, while Luna was sitting with her eyes closed with these white strings coming out of her horn. In the room, there was this table with white glowy pattern on it, a bookshelf next to the wall and a box with a sign saying, "Humon stuff." I laid next to Celestia in front of the fireplace and she asked. "How was your day?"
I replied. "Alright. I made a friend today."
She used her telekinesis to bring the box of human stuff to us and opened it. In the box there was a bathrobe, a toaster, a Nintendo switch with its charging station, an electric outlet setup kit and a ticket for the new World Order movie.
I told Celestia. "Holy shit it's a Switch!"
I pulled the console out of the box and showed her. "That's what it's called?" She said with wonder. I tried to turn it on but the batteries were dead. I used my telekinesis to grab the bathrobe and put it on. It was big, a little too big. "Well now we know that ponies are smaller than humans." I said. Then Celestia asked. "May I try?" I handed the bathrobe to her. "Ooo it's soft." She said, like a little kid getting their furry and soft coat for the first time. I put the switch back in the box and closed it. Celestia handed back the bathrobe to me. "Well it's getting dark now." I told Celestia. " Good night Sam." I put on the bathrobe, folded the sleeves so I don't trip over myself and I went to my bedroom and flopped on my bed. Then I drifted to sleep.
At 3 in the morning I woke up feeling thirsty, so I got out of bed. As I walked out of my room there were two guards, one on the left was sleeping while the one on the right was almost asleep. I just walked past them. I walked around the castle looking for cups and a faucet. After a while, I saw an alicorn and I didn't recognize her. Her wings glowed blue in the dark and her mane as well. But when I took a closer look it was Luna. She let out a tired groan and then she noticed me and said.
"Aren't thou supposed to be in bed?"
I put the glass in the sink and we went to her bedroom. It was similar to Celestia's room but more bluer. She took off her jewelry and set them on a desk. I took off my catalyst and put it next to her things. Sadly I can't do telekinesis without it. Luna got on the bed. Luna looked at me waiting for me to join her for cuddling. Of course I hopped into the blanket with her. She got close to me and wrapped her wings around me. I don't know if this is a friendly thing or a romantic thing but nevertheless it felt nice. I hugged her back and once again I drifted to sleep again.
Meanwhile in blueblood's mansion .
Blueblood sat on his desk in the middle of the night and kept thinking to himself. "How do I expose Sam?" Countless scenarios go through his head, most of them ended with him being laughed out of the press office. But there were some that worked and for those that hypothetically worked. He pulled out a pen and wrote down those scenarios and at 5 in the morning he developed a 'perfect' plan. A plan to secure Sam's downfall. Sam soon will be seen as a monster amongst the ponies of Equestria and be put in his rightful place. Then he crashed in bed because he was up all night plotting to ruin Sam’s life.
"Log 1. It's been a week since I was summoned to Equestria and in this past week I learned a lot about this world thanks to the library and the royal sisters. I made a friend and started to learn magic but it's true name is Manatherm. But most 'ponies' call it magic. Also I figured out the normal height of ponies as well by using the bathrobe that Celestia and Luna summoned from Earth. An average pony height is around 3 feet, but Luna is around 4 feet tall and Celestia is around 5 and a half feet tall. In case you are wondering how they kidnapped me, it is by table and I gave consent. Their technical level is around victorian and pre world wars. They have industrialized trains and even electricity but they don't have radio nor phones but they do have spells to communicate but only powerful mages can do that. They do have gunpowder but it is only used for cannons and ships. Their military is way behind. They’re still using swords and armor. They are experiencing equalism which is communism but Stalin didn’t fuck it up. So that is going around.
Well as far as my kidnapper's Luna and Celestia go, they are good people and their god-empresses which is kind of cool. On the second night, I wound up cuddling Luna because she had a bad dream. After that night, Celestia got jealous and made me cuddle her which wound up giving me a role of being their 'little human' where if the sisters have a bad day or are having a rough time I pretty much just be their cuddler and comfort them and listen to them. No, I didn't have sex with them. I'm NOT going to fuck a horse! As for the table, that thing can summon anything but it has a recharge time of a week. The most recent thing is a box of tapes and this tape recorder I'm using as my diary. It also makes people into ponies. Soo I'm a pony now. Sam E.Nickels out."
I stopped the recorder and put it back in the box next to my desk. I got up and got ready for the day, walked to the visitors bathroom, did my business, shower and cleaned my mouth with this wired mouthwash that foams in your mouth.. Then I went down stairs heading to the royal dining room. Thanks to the fact that ponies are herbivores, they normally have a vegetarian diet. But fish is on the table. In fact last night I had my first fish dinner sinceI was summoned. I saw Celestiaand Luna sitting at the table. I asked Luna.
"Luna, why are you up so early?"
Then we talked about all of the drama I had to put up with back home. Both woke and conservative people are just retarded, according to Luna and Celestia. After eating our omelets we went out of the dining room. As we walked down the halls of the castle, I asked Celestia.
"So today you guys got the day off and all. But how about everypony else who goes to church?"
We went to the front doors of the castle. The guards opened the doors as I walked out of the castle. I waved my hoof to Celestia and she waved back to me. The doors closed and I looked at my surroundings. There were a couple of buildings that the nobles lived in and Blue Blood's mansion. As I walked, there were gates separating the nobles and the rest of the city, of course I walked out of the gate and into the city. "So this is Canterlot, the city of the two sisters." As I talked to myself. Canterlot looked like it was from the Roman empire but more victorian. As I was walking around the city I saw a building with wording. "Equestrian Bank clan." I walked in and there was a mare unicorn sitting at a desk. I walked up to her and asked her. "Excuse me, can I make a bank account here?" She smiled and said. "Ya sure,follow me to my manager and he'll help you." Of course I followed her to the office and went in. As I walked in there was a stallion Earth pony with a bowtie sitting at a desk.
"Hello sir, what can I do for you?" He said with a grin. I replied. "Excuse me sir, can I make a bank account?" He pulls out some paperwork from the file cabinet behind him. "Ok let's get started." He said. I used my telekinesis to lift a pin and we started the process. He helped me through the paperwork. After a few hours of sitting and reading we got done with the bank account. "And that will be it sir. It will be ready in a day or two." He said to me.
I thanked him and went out of the bank. There will be 250 bits in my new bank account. I have 250 left so I started to look for a hospital to see if I can set an appointment. After wandering around the city, I found a building with a red x on it and there was a white sign saying. "Canterlot's National Hospital" when I walked in the hospital, there were some sick looking ponies and there were some ponies sitting on desks, some ponies talking to some of the sick ones. I thought to myself. "Looks a bit full, maybe later I can come back." So I walked out of the hospital.
I walked around the city looking for a place to eat, then I saw a café. I walked in and there were plenty of ponies around, it looked like it was the lunch rush. I waited in line to take my order. After a while I got to order, there was a white stallion unicorn and he asked me. "What can I get for you sir?" I looked at the sign next to him. There was this croissant thing covered with glaze. "May I have the 'Cinnamon Cressy' please." I told him. "Ok that will be 30 bits." I handed him the change and he handed me this ticket with the number 69 on it. "In a few minutes we'll call you up to get your order." He told me. I went to a table and took a seat. While I waited for my order I saw Vera and she saw me and came to sit with me. Right after she sat down my number was called. After I came back with my order we began to chat.
"So Vera. How's your day been?" I asked with a grateful attitude.
Then she got up and said, "Well Sam I gotta get my order."
"Umm… Sam are you ok or…" she asked in concern.
Then we walked together. As we walked I saw some propaganda posters that were anti-equalism. I think to myself. "Wow Equestria is experiencing the red scare." After a while of walking, we made it to her home. It was a flower shop with a home on top with stairs leading to the home part. We walked in the flower shop. When we walked in, there was Rosey, a pegasus with small wings, white fur and a brown mane.
“Hey Vera!” Rosey greeted.
Then me and Vera left the shop. I started to walk back home, but Vera stopped me and said. “Hey, do you want to hang out at my place?” then told her. “Ya sure.” Then I walked up the stairs as Vera flew to it with her wings. When she opened the door there was a living room. It had a couch, a couple of chairs, a round table and there was a kitchen further down the home. “Wow it… looked really good.” I said with genuine shock.
Then I took a seat on a chair. As for Vera she went to make some tea, sadly they don't have coffee makers so she made tea by hoof. As I sat on a chair Vera came and took a seat on the couch while the tea cooked on the stove.
Vera asked me. “What is it like cuddling with the princesses?”
Then a whistle noise came from the kitchen. “Oh the tea is done!” Vera said when she got up to get the tea. As she got the tea, I saw a calendar on the wall. The year was 1003, the month was Larv and the day was the 16th. (Larv was their version of June.) I looked over to the kitchen and Vera was pouring tea in two cups. As she walked back in the living room she tripped and the drinks fell. As the drinks fell, I grabbed the drinks and set them on the table.
“Oh shi-. Thank you Sam. You get a lot out of that catalyst.” She thanked me.
I got up and started to go. I walked down the stairs and started to go home. The sun was setting and the streets were mostly empty. As I walked, I felt like I was being followed. So I went around a block but I was stopped by one of those mechanical newspaper dispensers. There was a slot so I put a bit in and the machine let out a newspaper. The head line said. “Equestria weekly. Blueblood gone insane!?” As I read it, it talked about how the kingdom’s ‘beloved’ blueblood went insane by telling the press of my existence and how I'm from a world that not even the princesses can even imagine. It played it as if blueblood lost his mind. After reading it I thought to myself. “Well this is going to hurt his reputation.” I went on my journey back to the castle. As I walked I saw some pony. All that I saw was the tail part of a pony and I asked. “Who's there?” As I walked back to see, no pony was there. After that, I walked back to the castle.
As I walked through the gates separating the castle and nobles of Canterlot and the average pony, I heard hoof steps behind me. I quickly turned around and it was that mare from the Rosey’s flower shop with the sun glasses. “Why are you following?!” I asked in concern. She walked closer. I took a step back. She takes two steps closer. In this situation the best thing to do is… RUN! I ran past Blueblood’s mansion and went to the castle. When I got to the castle I knocked on the doors. “Luna! Celestia! Get the door!” I shouted. The door opened, Luna and some guards were there. “Hi Sam, how was th-?” She told me as I pushed myself in. I closed the door and sat on the floor.
“Thou ok?” Luna asked with concern.
Then we heard knocking from the door. Celestia opens the door and there was agent Sweetie drops the mare that scared me.
“Oh thank you for making sure that Sam stayed out of trouble.” Celestia thanked Sweetie Drops.
Then Celestia closed the doors and she started to laugh.
“Oh hi I'm Twilight Sparkle.” She greeted me.
Then she started to walk. So I followed her. As I followed her I kept hearing things from under her breath. Can’t tell what she was saying but she gave me fangirl vibes. When we went to the dining area, there was Lona sitting there waiting. I heard Celestia cooking from the kitchen. As we took our seats, the wyvern jumped off of her back and took a seat as well.
“So Sam, what is it like!?” she asked with excitement.
“Oh boy this going to be long.'' I thought to myself. As time went on, I told her about what we look like, what our tech is like and what our current situation is like. I left out the nerve stapling, the countlest genocides, and the poor conditions the workers and middle class live in because if Luna found that disturbing, then an alicorn that seems younger may get nightmares. While we talked, Celestia came with dinner. It was a baked potato with corn and steamed broccoli. When Celestia gave dinner to Twilight, it seemed like a mother's love for a second. When she gave dinner to the little wyvern he said. “Thank you princess.” I looked at him dead in the eyes. I was shocked, I thought that wyvern was a pet but I was wrong.
After like 30 seconds of staring, we continued. I learned that the name of the wyvern was Spice and dragons were mysterious beasts that aren't well known. So that is how I learned about dragons. While we talked about my world, Twilight wrote down every detail. Once we finished dinner, Twilight finished her notes which made me tired because that was a lot of information I had to give out. Then she had questions from her friends.
“Ok i'm going to ask some questions from my friends.” Twilight said while she pulled out a small notepad.
I snapped. “I DONT WANT TO FUCKING TALK ABOUT IT!” I slammed my two front hooves on the table. Both Celestia and Luna were shocked. “Oh I'm sorry. I-I must leave now.” I told her then I walked out of the room. I walked all the way to the throne to try to get myself back together. There weren't any guards since their shift was over and the night guards hadn't gotten here yet. After a while Luna came into the throne room.
“Sam, are thou ok?” she asked as she walked through the door.
I let out a deep breath. “What is the point of resisting against you?” I told her and I proceeded to tell her my childhood. I told her how my life has been unwanted and unloved. The shere neglect I had to go through. I was a MISTAKE.
After I told her all of that she said. “Thou know I was unwanted as well.”
I hugged her and she hugged back. As the moon rose, her body glowed.
“Log 3. It's been about a month since I was summoned. Me and Luna are friends and we have been working on my mage skill and I learned how to make a flashlight just using my catalyst and mana feed where I feed mana into enchanted items. Like weapons and tools. Both the light spell and mana feed are just mirrored versions of themselves. I still talk to Vera and visit her sister’s flower shop. Last week the toaster we had was shipped out of Canterlot to be reverse engineered and once it gets reverse engineered, the technology will be implemented on to these massive towers and shipped to the Crystal empire and I'll be in charge of overseeing the operation. As for Vera she’s going all right. Sometimes I go and help clean the castle along with other maids.
Earlier I learned that for every male pony, there's one and one fifth females. So that's interesting. As for Luna, she's all right. She's still Luna going into dreams and right now she’s lying on my bed. As for Celestia she's still a cake eating, sunlight manipulating princess and 3 days ago was the summer soles celebration. It was cool to see the lensing of the sun. As for Blueblood, he's still an asshole. But his reputation is going down because of his constant saying of this other world I’m from. Well as for me, I’m still getting better at walking and still using my catalyst for hands. And thanks to my sleep schedule I'm able to wake up early in the day and light at night. And this week we got a bean bag from the McGuffin table. Sam out.”
I turn off the recorder and put it in the box. Then Luna said from the bed. “Ready for tutoring?” “Ya lets go.” I told her then we left the room. As we walked through the castle, everything was still normal. Guards were doing what they're supposed to, maids cleaned like a normal day. When we made it to the library, Luna got some books and sat at the table. There was a book about Equestrian history. The book was separated in two parts: Pre-banishment and post banishment. Me and Luna read the books together.
-200 is the year the pre-Celestial book starts. This was the year when Equestria was separated by multiple kingdoms who were often at war with each other. But overall just normal medieval stuff going on.
-150 nothing much changed but there was a famous wizard that revolutionized magic called Star Swirl.
-120 is when Celasta was born and -118 is when Luna was born. Oddly enough, Luna and Celestia weren't born alicorns but when I asked Luna how they became alicorns, she just gave a shrug. Well if you're older than the calendar, your childhood would be fuzzy.
-90 is when the sisters came to power and became the rulers of most of Equestria and Equestria at the time was more like the holy Roman empire but united.
-76 is when Luna and Celestia took over the Crystal empire. But the capital of the empire ended up disappearing on them.
-40 the two churches started to hate each other but when that started to happen, Celestia outlawed organized religion altogether to prevent a civil war,
-35 this chaos god called Discord was turned to stone with a super weapon called the Elements of Harmony which is kinda cool.
-20 Luna turned to Nightmare Moon and started the civil war that lasted 20 years.
0 the war ended and the Nightmare was put in stone. But nowCelestia was all alone to rule.
When we reached the part where the Civil War ends, Luna and I decided to stop for now. We put a bookmark in it and put it up. Then Luna pulled out the 101 magic book. We're on unit 4 and I get to learn basic enchanting. The process of enchanting is quite simple using ink mixed with crystals crushed up to a powder and carefully printed on whatever you put it on. In order to activate the enchantment,Manafeed must be used. Then the unit goes over the kinds of enchantments and what they are used for. Like hardening is effectively making your tools stronger and heating where it heats up but it caps out around 300 degrees celsius. Once we were done with the first chapter of unit 4, Luna got up and started to leave.
“Where are you going?” I asked Luna.
She left the library and I stayed. Then after 10 ish minutes she came back with a silver sword, a bag filled with crushed crystals, a bottle of ink, and a brush. She set the stuff on the table. She put the powder in the ink then told me. “Thou need to mix it first.” I used a small stick to mix the ink and powder together, then Luna pulled out a paint brush and handed it to me. I put the brush in the ink then started to paint the blade. While I painted Luna guided the brush so I wouldn’t slip up. We painted along the blade making a hardening enchantment. After a while Luna let go of the brush letting me go as I pleased. After like an hour of carefully enchanting the blade, we were done.
“Ok we're done.” Luna told me.
I started to feed the sword mana. When I fed it, it glowed this whitish black. Not gray but something else but I continued to feed it until the enchantment was one with the sword. When I got done with the enchanting, the sword looked very different from where we began. Long black lines went along the blade and a ring at the base, telling where it began and ended. This was a hardening enchantment.
“So this is what your military has.” I told Luna.
Then I had an idea. “What if I drew designs of our human tech for Equestria?” I told Luna.
“Do thee know what is needed?”
Then I ran out of the library and headed straight to my room, grabbed my book that Twilight gave to me and started to draw. I could've drawn a tank or a nuclear reactor or a fucking computer but those would be no use. So I decided to draw a diesel engine. It samples a steel casing with wires to spark the explosion then a piston to pull in the explosive gas and out the exhaust. The explosion pushes the piston making momentum.
Meanwhile in the maids quarters in the castle.
Vera was getting dressed for work today. Today will be a normalish day. Places that needed to be cleaned will report to her manager. Anything that needs repaired will report to their manager and then clock out at 3 in the afternoon. After work she will hang out with Sam the pony that is not a pony, then finally head home and hang with her sister.
While she put her work clothes on from the locker she talked to one of her fellow maids. “Simmininrule, have you thought about the upcoming grand galloping gala this month?”
Then all the maids in the room gathered around a cup with names inside. Every colt and mare was waiting for the draw. The pale colt picks up the cup with his horn. “And the loser is…” the colt said, pulling a paper out of the cup. “Silver Drop.” Then every pony cheeredexcept the gray colt named Silver Drop. He was upset because he has to clean the bathrooms this week.
Every pony left the maids quarters to the back of the castle where the garden is at. One end of the concrete walkway had all the guards while the other side had all the maids. As Vera stood still in line facing the guards, two ponies walked past them; Vera’s manager Lya and the captain of the royal guard Vix. They both inspected their corresponding lines. Lya inspected the maids and Vix inspected the guards. After that they all got to work. Vera was assigned to clean the windows today but luckily she wasn't alone cleaning, but sadly maids don't just have to clean the castle but the noble buildings surrounding the castle including BlueBloods mansion. As Vera cleaned the windows, she saw a crack on the top window. She pulled out her pad and her penfrom her outfit to note down the crack then continued cleaning.
After a while of cleaning, she saw me. As I drew the diesel engine I heard spraying and wiping from my window. I waved at her and she waved back then we continued our business. After a while, Vera landed on the roof of the castle and took a break. “It is halfway through the day, hopefully nothing crazy happens.” she said to herself. Then after ten or so minutes she went back to work.
In Sam's bedroom.
“Ah ha! Finally the diagnosis is complete and soon Equestria will be ahead of the game.” I said to myself. Then I got out of my room to show Luna and/or Celestia the power of this. After a while of wondering, I encountered Celestia walking down the halls.
“Hey Sam, how’s your time with Luna?” she asked.
Then I ran back to my room and went to the last page of my book. I tore it out and started copying the drawing. While I was copying the diesel engine, Luna came into the room and decided to start talking to me.
“So Sam what other things are thee going to draw?” Luna asked.
I continued the long list of things I could make from memory if I had resources to make them and the skill. I would revolutionize this world a few times over. But it would be a massive spike in technological progress and some kingdoms outside of Equestria will notice this massive jump in technology and probably try to find the secrets to this or call it bluff. One way or the other, this world will have a tech jump.
In Blue Blood’s mansion.
Vera was cleaning the windows as well as some of the other maids. She wiped the windows but as she cleaned she asked the other maids.
“Where is Blue Blood? He’s usually looking at our flanks most of the time.” she asked.
Upstairs Blue Blood was putting his ear on the floor listening to the conversation. “Shit they’re considering Sam is better than ME!” Blue Blood said to himself. He was stressed on the fact that his reputation is falling apart and that Sam is still not considered a monster. He passed around the room thinking of other ways to put a stop to this monster. But when he looked out the window he saw guards and that gave him an idea. An idea that may lead to his demise or would make him the most powerful pony in Equestria, but it would take weeks for preparation to pull it off.
While Vera finished the windows she saw the clock in the room. It was 2:49. She felt excited to get off of work and she was ready to clock out. Once her shift was over she went back to the maids quarters, clocked out, and then went to see Sam.
As me and Luna walked down the halls, Vera came along to see me.
“Hey Sam how's your-” Vera said to me but she stopped when she saw Luna.
Then it became a very confusing situation but after a while they both explained what happened. Vera wanted to talk to me but Luna was there. After that, me, Vera and Luna decided to talk to each other. We decided to go outside in the sun.
“Ok after all of that, how was your day Vera?” I asked Vera.
“Ok.” I told her then I left to get my book to show vera. After a while I got to my bedroom and got my book then headed back. When I got back I saw Luna socializing with Vera. I smiled at the fact that Luna and Vera were becoming friends. Then when I got to them, they were talking about their hobbies. Vera liked reading and Luna liked to read too. So they were talking about what books they liked. Luna liked the old books from her time while Vera liked the modern fictions. Overall they were having a good time. When they noticed me, Luna grabbed my book and showed Vera the engine I'd drawn.
“Hey Sam, this is really cool how it works.” Vera told me then I told her “well thank you.” Then they continued their conversation as I went to put up my book. When I got back to them, they were now talking about this thing called ‘The Grand Galloping Gala.’ of courseI asked about it. The Galloping Gala is effectively a massive fancy party for nobles to enjoy and it's coming up this month. Afterthat Vera Left to go home and it was just me and Luna for the rest of the day.
At dinner in the dining room while we ate our food. I asked Celestia.
As the second Equestrian civil war was going on in the dining room, I ate my food watching the countless potato lives lost in this meaningless conflict. After I ate my food I walked into the kitchen to get seconds on mashed potatoes. There were other things like corn and carrots but I felt like potatoes. After the war ended, Me, Luna and Celestia cleaned the place up. I put up the leftovers for later and made sure to clean up the table. I wonder, should I stay?
As I walked down the streets of Dayton oviding people and collapsing infrastructure. As I walked I saw a broken mirror laying next to a wall. I looked into it. Seeing my aryan body. Short yellow hair, light blue eyes and wight skin. My old body. I heard someone behind me moving.
“Hey Nazi!” Some asshole said.
Sirens interrupted him. I looked up to the sky and before I knew it a bright flash blinded the area. I tried blocking the light with my hand but it was no use. Flesh burnt off the flesh. Revilighg not a skeletal hand but a hoove. I immediately woke up. I looked at myself. I looked normalish. Luna barged in the room.
“Is thou ok?!” she asked.
She left the room with a smile. I looked at the clock on the wall and it was 11:59. I layed in bed wondering what's with Luna. But before I started to think I fell back asleep.
I felt Celestia lying next to me when I woke up. She was laying there with her body starched out. I sat up to see what other things snuck in. I looked over her and saw a tray with a variety of brushes and my catalyst. “Brush me.” She demanded. She handed me the tray. I put on my catalyst and grabbed the fur brush. She was laying on her belly so brushed her back. I shagged her wings and there was a loose feather. I plucked it and Celestia jumped a little but she immediately returned to her relaxed state. Soon her back was done and I signaled that she needed to roll over. I taped her shoulder and she rolled on to her back. I brushed her belly as well. While I brushed her I asked her a question.
“Hay Celestia. I have a question.”
After an hour of brushing Celestia’s body. We got done. We walked out of the bedroom and we went to the main hall where everyone was setting up the gala for tomorrow night. As we walked in the main hall I saw that the pegasi was setting up the ceiling decorations, the unicorns made sure that stuff was in order like setting up the carpets and putting tape on the floor say what goes where and the earth ponies set up the heavy stuff like tabules. I saw Vera flying around helping the others. Lya the manager of the place is supervising everyone. I walked around observing the decorations while Cilestia looked at a list bright by one of the guards.
“Hay Sam.” Celestia called.
Walked over and she handed me a list of things we spent for the past month from the royal treasury. We looked over it together. Food, utilities, but there were other things like milisha. Celectia said that the Cadence probably hired some for the Sombra’s cult problem they have. But at the bottom of the list there was something. I forgot my uniform I bought for the galla that I need to pick up.
“Hey Celestia, I need to go pick up a uniform I ordered yesterday.” I told her. Before Celestia could say anything Vera fell on top of Celesia.
I helped Vera off of Celestia and helped Celestia up. Celesia got up and put her crown back on, then she sat down on the ground. She looked over to Vera. Vera started to get scared and a little shaky. Celesia lifted her hoove. “Boop” Celesia said after booping Vera. All of the tenchen in Vera just disappeared.
“Ok. You could go pick up your suite Sam. In fact Vera you could go with him if you like.” Celestia told us.
I was going to ask why, but I decided to stop myself. Soon Vera ran back. We got ready to go. As we exited the front door Celestia waved goodbye. As we walked past Blueblood’s manchen Vera decided to start a conversation.
“So Sam once you get done with Luna tudering you what will you do later on?” she asked.
After that conversation we walked through Canterlot and it was busy but luckily me and Vera didn't get separated. As we walked down the street we were continuously bumping into other ponies but nothing out of the ordinary. Eventually We made it to the clothing shop. It was filled with clothes and all kinds, the walls were red and the place had a brown rug floor. As we walked in there was a blue unicorn stallion that greeted us.
“How can I be at servist.” He asked.
As he walked to the back room. Vera looked at all the clothes. The one she was looking at was a nice red column dress. As she looked at all of the dresses and looked at their sizes to make sure they fit. Soon Vera desidend she was going to get a new dress for the galla because a few days ago she got tickets to the galla in the mail. But before she could even try on her first one in the changing area the stallion came and got me. He showed me the uniform I paid for. It was a blue military-like uniform with two chest pockets one on each side, golden colored caller and edges, with silver buttons. I thanked him and I got my uniform. I headed back to the changing room and Vera showed me a lot of choices. Everything from a bouffant and trapeze to peplum and sheath dress. Soon after she decided to go with the red column. She bought it and we headed back. As we walked I desired to ask her something.
“Hay Vera, how did you become a maid?” I asked.
After Vera told me all that we split. Vera headed home and I walked back to the castle. It was around brunch time. I opened the front doors to get in. The place was quiet. A little two quiet. I looked around then I was tackled by a blue blur. “Gat ya!” it shouted. I quickly picked it up and body slammed it. I got back up and my heart started to slow back down. I realized that it was Luna. She wasn't harmed.
“I'm so sorry!” I apologized.
She rolled over and I grabbed her hoof and she got up and went to the dining hall. I went to my room and pulled my uniform out of the bag. When I pulled it out a thought came to my mind. I tried it on ,then looked at myself in the mirror. After I looked at myself I put the uniform up and went to get tost. When I got there, there was a plate with a lot of toast. Luna was walking in with a honey bottle. She grabbed some toast and put some honey on it. She offered it to me after she got her share. I thanked her and had some toast with honey as well.
As I ate my slice of toast I figured Why the hell not. I went to the kitchen, grabbed a tub of butter, a butterknife and grabbed the plate of toast. Then I started to offer toast to everyone. First ponies that got some toast were some of the guards and they liked it, then some of the maids joined in. Soon enough there was a line of ponies arose in the halls waiting for some toast. But eventually I ran out. Some were disappointed and others didn't really care. I had a guard tapped me on the shoulder and I turned around to see him. “Sary sir, I'm out of tost.” I told him. He shulked his head. “The princesses need you, there at Princess Celestia’s office.” he told me.
I nodded to him and went to Celestia’s office. I walked up to the door and opened it. There was Celestia and Luna was sitting by a table on couches with a cup of tea along with some books on the table.
“You two needed me?” I asked.
I sat down and got some tea from a spare cup thay had. I looked at what else was on the table, there was a big book, a card deck, and an open game of equestrian chess. Then Celestia said.
“Sam, the reason why we called you here is because of your well. Origins.”ENOUGH! ” I shouted.
I used my magic to grab her horn and forced her head below me. But before I could do anything else I quickly realized what I was doing. I let go of her and back away. “I'm sorry.” I told them in a fearful voice. I looked at Luna and she was shocked.
“I’m sar-” I said before Celestia interrupted.
I collapsed and hit my head on the corner of Celestia’s desk. The last thing I saw before passing out was Luna rushing up to help me. As Sam lay unconscious on the floor with blood bleeding from his forehead Luna held him in her hooves.
“Oh no, ho no. Sister, why did thou do that!” Luna yelled.
Luna and Celestia looked in the drawer of the desk for first aid. Luna grabbed a healing potion and a rag. Celestia grabbed the alcohol wipes and a patch bandage. Celestia cleaned Sam’s head and put the bandage over his scab. Luna put the healing potion in the rag and put it on top of the bandage. They used magic to put Sam on one of the couches. Celestia went over and rubbed Sam's head but she found something. A lump of boone at the middle of his forehead. But too small to poke out of the furr even. She figured it was just a deformity and left it.
“Luna. Do you want some Lunch?” Celestia asked.
As I gradually woke up. I felt a soft fur on my face and I was covered in a blink of feathers. When I opened my eyes and it was Celestia. “Hay Sam.” she said. I proceeded to get up and lay on the other side of the couch. My meremery was fussy for a few minutes. Until they celery up. I quickly checked my head. It had a bandaid on it. Looked over at Celestia and she seemed to be depressed. She proceeded to take a deep breath.
“I'm sorry Sam.” she told me. “No you're not at fault. It's just that I wanted to help you but my approach was. Well not pleasant. Please forgive me.”
I Proceeded to take the bandage off and throw it across the room into the small trash can. I took one of the hash browns and started eating. It was cold but hey it's alright. Celestia started eating hash browns as well. Bet after a while there was like one left. Celestia looked at me wondering if I would take it. “This one is for Luna.” I said before taking it. I grabbed a napkin and wrapped the hash brown. Before I left the room at the doorway, I looked at Celestia and said.
“I forgive you Celestia but please don't do that again.”
I walked over to the playroom of the casal. I opened the door and Luna was dream walking. I walked over to her. I put the hash brown on the mugufen table next to her and walked off. I walked to my bedroom and looked at the time. 10:47 the clock said. I fixed my bed, I took off my catalyst and face planted on the bed.
Luna laid in her bed sleepless. She turned her head to look at the clock. 2:40 in the morning. She got out of bed and used a light spell to see her surroundings. She felt sad about what happened at Sam’s homeworld. They used the Blades of Tartarus. When she was dream walking earlier she saw a massive decrease in human dreams. All she saw was a hot hell that soon turned cold. Some survivors even died in their sleep. It was unnerving to know that Sam may be the last of his kind. It’s bad enough to send news that a loved one passed away but a whole entire race, that is a little too much to handle. She walked to Sam’s room to check on him. He was still asleep and Luna had this odd feeling of sadness that sooner or later she would have to tell him.
I woke up in the morning and today was the day. The Grand Galloping Gala. I headed to the bathroom to take care of my teeth and body. Then I walked back to my room to put on my catalyst and my new uniform. I walked down to see the gala’s decorations. The garden looked as beautiful as a painting and the castle looked fit for a king. I felt like nothing much would go wrong. As I ate breakfast with Celestia I asked.
“So what races will be there or is it just ponies?” I asked.
After breakfast I went to the doors leading to Luna’s room and sat there waiting. After a while Luna walked out. “Good morning Luna, how did you sleep?” I asked but she just stood there looking at me kinda sad. “Are you ok Luna? Do you need a hug?” I asked with concern. Then she threw herself at me, hugging me.
“We're so sorry.” Luna cried.
I was concerned about her because she was very upset about something that is about me for some reason so I asked. “Luna, do you want to talk to your big sister about it?” she nodded her head. “Ok i’ll take you to your sister.” Then I took her to look for Celestia. After a while we found Celestia in the garden.
“Hey! Luna wants to talk to you about something.” I shouted at Celestia.
Once Sam left and went to his room to wait. Luna started to talk to Celestia.
“Sister there-there-” Luna said.
Then Celestia went to Sam’s room to tell him. After she got to his room she told him. “Sam, can you meet with me in the throne room?” “Oh ok.” Sam said with concern.
In the throne room, Celestia and Luna sat there waiting for Sam. Once Sam got there, both Luna and Celestia looked at Sam.
“Yes, your highness?” Sam asked.
Then I proceeded to give Luna a hug. “Well that’s weird.”
“Hey big colt.” Rosey flirted.
After we made sure that Rosey wouldn’t wander off and get a fine for public indecency, we decided to go for a walk around the block. After a few hours we walked back to check on Rosey.
“Uhh… I have a headache.” Rosey groaned.
Then I left hoping that they would make it there. When I got back, I got the list of names for the tickets. At twilight time, Vera and Rosey were the first ones to come. Vera had her red dress while Rosey had a white dress. After a while the band for the gala came and Vera’s janitor took care of setting them up. All kinds of nobles began to show up around 8 or so.. Some brought their partners and others came alone. I got to see my first few griffins, their front looked like a bird while their back half looked more like a cat. Twilight and her friends came but also I also got to see the elements that I have been hearing about. Then after a couple of more guests, I got to see Blueblood and he just had this up to no good smirk on his face.
After I collected all the tickets and made sure the doors were closed, I went to join the party. I looked around and I saw a buffet filled with baked foods, veggies and most importantly meat. I haven't had pork and beef for a long time so of course I went to get myself some of that nice tender meat. Luckily, no pony or griffin even noticed me. I went to Vera and she had some shrimp. As we walked next to her, classical music was playing. Neither me nor Vera spoke a word, we were just enjoying the gala. As for Luna and Celestia, they were just enjoying each other’s company and conversation with a night off from royal duties. I started to eat my food before it got cold. That meat was filled to the brim with spices that made it somewhat overwhelming but I didn't care. It's been a few months since I last had meat. I'm not gonna let the extra seasoning stop me. A little bit later we saw Rosey walk towards us with a glass of water. Soon all three of us were just hanging out.
“Oh Sam, the speeches are going to start.” Vera told me. I look up to the small stage in the room. The princesses went up on stage and Twilight started her speech.
“Welcome family and friends. It’s been an interesting few years, the reintroduction of Luna to Equestria, the defeat of King Sombra in the Crystal Empire and the end of raids from Changeling hives. If it wasn't for my friends I wouldn't have known what to do during these encounters. I promise that the elements of harmony will spread harmony across Equestria. Far and wide making sure that peace will prosper as long as me and my friends last. The world may be rough but together we will make it.”
Then the crowd cheered, ponies stomped their front hooves and the griffins clapped their claws. As everyone cheered, I noticed a lurking shadow from outside but it was probably just a bird or some kind of animal. Some more ponies gave their speeches after Twilight. The captain of the royal guard gave her speech which was about keeping the land safe from the changeling threat, then the governors which was about keeping Equestria stable and running, and finally Blue Blood which talked about this hidden threat that is in the room, which was referring to me. But no pony nor griffin believed him. Oddly enough, he looked at the doors in his speech like someone was going to come in. After all of that Twilight came to me and started to talk with me.
“Hey Sa- what is that meat on your plate?” she asked.
I turned around to Vera and said. “Hey, I'm going with Twilight for something. Ok?” Vera nodded her head because her mouth was filled with shrimp. So me and Twilight went out of the main room and into the halls. We went through the halls and into the princesses room. Surrounding the McGuffin table was her friends and Luna. But pink flashed before my eyes which activated my flight or fight response and I pushed it. It was that pink mare when I greeted earlier and every pony's eyes widened.
“Oh fuck! Are you ok?” I asked in concern. No response. I stood there in shock. “Did… I kill her?” I asked in concern. Then she shouted “surpr-” I got scared again and kicked her in the stomach. The mare grouched in pain and every one rushed to help her.I stood back so I could stop beating up the poor mare.
“Well you're not on the surprise party list.” the pink mare said.
After we got to our seats at the table, Twilight's friends greeted me.
Then the door slammed open and a guard came through the door. He had a few cuts and slashes on him and he was bleeding. Then he said. “Your highness we’re under attack! And they stoned Princess Celestia!” “By whom?” Luna asked. “Blul-” then he collapsed and died. Every pony was shocked at the scene.
“Well shit.” I said in shock.
Everypony went out of the room but Luna stopped me. “Sam we need thou to go to the library and there should be a special button.” she told me. “Oh uh ok.” I said as the group left. “Ok, let's go to the library.” I told myself. After that I went to the library. I saw some militia as I suspected. They were covered in thick cloth, some armor and had spears. But there were a few that wore robes and they were unicorns. I avoided him so I wouldn't get captured or killed or whatever the hell to harm me.
Once I went to the library. I blocked the entrance with the table and one of the cabinets. “Ok button button button button. Where are you?” I told myself as I looked around the room. I tried to pull the books and nothing happened. I used the old lantern trick. Nothing happened and now there's a bunch of holes in the wall. But when I layed on the floor I saw a button on the ceiling. “Button!” I said in excitement. I grabbed as many books as I could to make my way up to the button. After a while I finally got it but time was in a crunch because I heard some ponies from the other side of the blocked doors. “Hey somepony is in there” the ponies from the other side. So I rushed to the button and pressed it. I felt the floor open up and me and the pile of books fell. “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!” I screamed as I fell down to the hole.
Luna fought for her sister against the militias and sadly the elements were stolen. As one militia cast a spell to immobilize her, it hit her and Luna fell to the floor. “oof.” she said when she fell. She looked up and saw one of the militias holding a container. “Oh not again.” she said as she was turned to stone. The same fate as her sister.
“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! Oof.” I said as the books broke my fall. It became dark as the massive trap door closed. I used my catalyst to make light so I could see. I looked at my surroundings. There was a massive spiral staircase leading to the trap door and this long ass hallway. Thanks to the dark I couldn't see what was in the hallway. I got up but when I got up I felt something snap in my rear back leg. “MOTHER! FUUUUUCKKKKER!” I screamed in pain. After that I limped into the hall with a broken leg. After a while my eyes adjusted to the dark making it easier to see and I saw a treasury but not filled with gold coins but one filled with artifacts on pedestals. Some looked more girly while others looked like weapons and there were a few that looked like normal household things.
I decided to look at one of the many artifacts. One of the artifacts looked like a sickle on a long pole. There was a little tag on it and it was in Shakespearean english. “Night of the Moon that will be born.” it read. It took me a moment to realize that this was the thing that nightmare moon used to make those bat ponies. I put it back because I had no idea how to use it. After a bit more of looking at the artifacts, I decided to leave the treasury behind but before losing hope, a red glare caught my eye. It was this amulet that looked like an evil alicorn. It screamed powerful and the tag read, “The Alicorn Amulet.” I looked at the amulet with thoughts of power. Power to stop Blueblood. Of course I could get a different artifact but at this point I didn't care. All I wanted was to stop him. I braced myself for any of the corrupted voices this amulet had and put it on.
I felt the mana in my veins and felt my leg forge itself back to normal. I looked at my back and two red energy wings appeared. I looked up and saw the tip on a red energy horn. I have become a GOD. “HAHAHAHAHA! Your fucked Blueblood! Your fucked!” I laughed. I felt the power and I felt like slapping myself to keep in line. Oddly there were no new voices in my head. I rushed out of the room and climbed the stairs. I heard hoof steps and talking right above me. So I put my new powers to use and leaped. The trapdoors got obliterated. There was a lot of debris and smoke. Once the smoke cleared, there was a little pony shaking. “What are you?” he asked in fear. “I am a Tarren.” I said. I used my amulet to stop the electrical currents in his brain before he tried to attack,eventually turning him off. Then I walked out of the room. “Halt!” I heard from my right. There were some more of those mortal little ponies that trashed the gala. I turned off one of them and he just fell over. “OH SHIT! OH SHT-” The other’s said before I turned their brains off as well.
After running around the castle, I ran into another member of the militia. He charged at me but I just threw him out of the window like he was just a piece of trash. I came across the table that brought me here. It was DESTROYED, reduced to bits and pieces of itself and a handful of pieces were missing. I picked one up and I felt angry. The only thing that connected my world and this one. After more searching and dealing with the militia, I got back to the gala and Blueblood was there. It looked like everyone was turned to stone.
“You're too late Sam! I turned everypony and griffin to stone. And look what I got. That's right, I have the elements in my hooves and now I can get rid of you ONCE FOR ALL!” He monologues.
I used the air to make a lens to make a laser and I blasted him. The energy shield started to crack, but he moved out of the way and started to fly. Sadly, I couldn't fly because I don't know how to fly with wings. So I just aimed the laser at him, melting parts of the ceiling. He slams himself at me, knocking me out of the castle. I activated my laser again but this time I used the sprinkler system for my fuel. Night became day in Canterlot thanks to my lasers. I got him again and the shield finally broke.
I pinned him down and tried to get the elements. “Now it is my chance to get the elements and soon I will rule Equest-. What! Are these my thoughts? Oh SHIT!” I quickly realized the amulet was taking over but I needed it to stop Blueblood. He launched himself up, breaking free from me. Then he pinned me to the ground. “Haha you can’t stop me! I am Prince Blueblood!” he said while the elements aimed at me. But they started to glow. “What in Tarteris!” he said in shock while the elements glowed. I had no idea what was happening. Then this multicolored explosion pushed me into the wall of the castle. I felt the amulet rip off of me taking a piece of skin and flesh off with it. The last thing I saw was Blueblood turning to stone before I fell unconscious.
I heard ticking from a clock and I felt cloth, like on a bed. I opened my eyes and I saw Vera, Rosie, Luna and Celestia. “Wha-what happened?” I asked. “You're alive!” Vera shouted while giving me a hug and Luna joined in as well. They both started to cry.
“Hey guys, are you two ok?” I asked as they clinged on to me.
Then everypony left the room. I removed the sheets to see my body. I was completely shaved. I had scars all over my back legs and chest. I looked to the side of the bed and there was a mirror there. It wasn't big but it worked. There were two massive scars along my neck where the amulet was. I looked to the other side and there was a get well balloon. When I looked down I saw my box of tapes. I reached down and grabbed one with my hooves. It was difficult but I started to record. “Log 7…”
“Log 8. I’m currently on the train to the Crystal Empire to start the project to give Crystal City a backup heating system. As for my health, my furr started to grow back but I still have nerve damage in my neck where the amulet was and now and forever forward my neck will be num. As for my friends, they're fine but Luna was kind of sad that I went because I was her first friend in a long time. She even had that puppy eyed look on her when I got on the train. Vera and her sister are doing fine and wished me well when they left. Celestia is also fine. In fact, if the gala didn't go as far as it did in the chaos she would have said it was good. Blueblood is now a statue in the sisters' garden. I figured after the whole gala thing that I would be in the news but Celestia covered it up to where the Elements of Harmony stopped Blueblood and saved the day. The table is broken, so no more human items and no more communications to home by dream walking but most of the table we still have is just a head full of pieces that seem to be stolen.
You're probably wondering why I'm going to the Crystal Empire. Well I'm going to the Crystal Empire to oversee the construction of the heating towers. Why? Because I'm from the species that made the toaster which they reverse engineered it to the towers. When I get there I am supposed to meet Princess Cadence and Prince Shining Armor. Prince Armor is the former captain of the royal guard. He retired when he married Cadence. I'm also getting paid for all of this. That's it for today Sam out.” I put the tape back in the box.
I sat back and looked out the window, mostly green grass outside but compared to Canterlot their winters are rough as all hell and their summers are cool from what I heard. After a while I saw Crystal City, the capital of the Empire. As the train got closer and closer I saw a magical bubble surrounding the city, keeping it at a standard temperature. But there was no physical shell around it, only what I could tell was the different train compared to the outside and the inside. When the train stopped I got my luggage which contained only my book and the bathrobe and my box of tapes. When I walked out of the train I saw Cadence, a pink alicorn and a bunch of soldiers in this crystal themed armor.
“Hello you must be Sam.” Cadence greeted me.
We started to walk out of the station and walked into the city. The city seemed more gothic in architecture and looked like a place with few factories and power plants. It stuck out like a sore thumb. I also noticed the citizens. Their eyes seemed different. Instead of perfectly round pupils, they were octagon shaped and their bodies were more clear and if I look at them where the sun shines through them I can barely see their origins. They are the same species as ponies. It's just that I never saw ponies that had weird looking eyes. I didn't ask about it since it seemed rude at the time. As we got closer to the center of the city I saw the source of power for the bubble. A massive palace that looked like the Eiffel Tower but instead of being made out of metal it seemed to be made out of the same stuff as most of the other buildings and it had two spiers on its side. It also had a blue laser coming out the top.
“Ok this is the heart of the city.” Cadence told me.
After we greeted each other we went into the palace. It had maids and guards just like back in Celestia’s place, but the guards were wearing different kind of armor than Canterlot. They also showed me the long hall of portraits of the previous kings and queens and I noted a trend. Further the generations have become more and more deformed. Odds are that it was from all of the inbreeding. The only two that seemed to be spared from it all was Princess Cadence because she wasn't related to the bloodline that ruled the empire and King Sombra. But it looks like King Sombra has a carved horn so he's probably a product of inbreeding. They continued to show me their palace. I honestly don’t blame them, especially Shining Armor. If I get to co-rule with a goddess that is also my wife, I would show off all my stuff. They also explained how their advisers and the local nobles live in the palace with them. Which is convenient but I wouldn't be living in the palace. I'll be living in a freshly built apartment building but I'm free to go to the palace if I want to see them or any other reason that might come up. So they handed me some keys to the place and the address.
“Here are your keys and you can be on your merry way.” Cadence told me.
Then I went to find my new apartment. The address was 276 West Frost Street. After a while of searching for the apartment, I finally got to the building. It stuck out like a sore thumb, same with some of the buildings in Crystal City. Across the street was the local library so if I ever need something to read it's right there. I went up the stairs and found my room. Room 15. I unlocked the door and went in. The apartment was bigger than the dorms from Ohio. In Ohio, you would have a 6x5 foot bedroom and that's it, but here I got a bedroom with a bed, a kitchen, a bathroom and a living room! I dropped my things off and put them up. Of course this place is only temporary until the project is finished which will only take a couple of months. After putting all my things in my closet, I went out and locked the door and visited the library.
When I got close to the library,I noticed something on the ground near the entrance. An old looking book, the cover was black with a purple crystal in the middle and around the edges of the pages seemed burnt. I made sure no pony was watching and took the book. I walked back to my home but didn’t rush to avoid looking suspicious. I went into my apartment and put the book under the bed.
I walked out of my home and went to the library to see what they had. When I got in, there was an old mare sitting at a desk. “Hello, what can I help thou with?” she asked. I paused for a moment then I realized that most ponies were trapped in the city and frozen in time for a thousand years. “Oh just looking ma’am.” I told her. I went in and walked around the library. It was massive and a thousand years old! Luna would love this place. After a while of walking around I saw a massive gray door and some pony and I knew that face. Twilight Sparkle.
“Oh hey Sam what are you doing all the way here?” she asked.
I turned around and every pony was staring at me in shock. I left the library and went back home. I layed in bed and thought about what just happened. “I did not handle that well.” I told myself. After a while of rethinking my life choices I decided to go out for a walk. While I walked I realized something. Ever since I came to this world I actually felt stuff inside of me. Not like organs moving but feelings. For most of my life I was dead inside. I really didn't know what to do about it. Should I keep them inside or embrace them? I no longer have to worry about when I get paid for my next meal. Holy shit I don't have to worry about my boss firing me because I didn't make my life all about the job. In this world I was… happier. I felt emotions and a lot of… Love. After a while of walking, I saw a couple guards and Shining Armor.
“Hey Sam I am so sorry about Twilly.” He told me.
After a couple of hours at the local bar.
“Ok ok let me get this straight so you guys are taller than Celestia, walk on two legs and have fleshy claws things?'’ Shining Armor concluded.
We both started to laugh but I saw some pony in dark robes started to pull out a crossbow and aimed at us. I used the beer from Shining’s mug to ignite a star. A bright light blinded every pony in the tavern and I grabbed his hoof and ran out. He screamed as I dragged him out of the bar.
“What is that for!?” he yielded to me while we ran.
We started to slow down and eventually stopped. We started to take a breather. “I was thanking that I would be. saving you but Instead you saved me.” Shining thanked me. “Same.” I replied. After a while then we saw sum guards dragging the same pony but tied up. The guards put them on the ground in front of the Shining. “Well, well, well, looks like another one of those cultists.” Shining told them. The guards removed the hooded figure and it was a mare.
“Thouis not the real king and when King Sombra comes back he will save the Empire from your tyranny.” she told Shining.
As I layed in bed I had difficulty sleeping even though I had a big day for tomorrow. I went under my bed to get that random book I found. I grabbed the book and looked through it. It seemed to be over 3/4ths filled with words and the last page seemed to be ripped out. Corosaty filled my mind. So I decided to start reading.
Over a 1000 years ago in the Crystal Empire.
A dark unicorn named Sombra sitting in his home enjoying his home drinking his tea. He sat on his chair and looked out the window. Something bothered him. Something about the recent news but his wife, a pregnant light blue unicorn named Hope came in getting him.
“Gertings husband, how are thous doing?” She asked.
Sombra took Hope to bed and tucked her in. when Sombra went back to his tea he found his general underneath the table. It was black and had a purple crystal in the middle. He grabbed ink and quill and began to write. “Dear diary. Update on my wife: she seems to be getting better from her illness but I still worry for her. Update on my projects: my mana cadlag is almost complete an enchantment that can behave like a machine but sadly just using mana feed isn't enuff. But if I figure out a way to make the machine harnist the crystals then it would work. Hmm, maybe I'll try that lader. And another update I've gotten my hoofs on a changeling corpse. If I could figure out its secrets it could be a game catcher. But it will be difficult and hard. Update on my job: the shoulders seem to thank that the king isn't taking his role sirius. All he does is sit around all day and he complains that the citizens are not grateful to have him. Maybe I should take him down? Maybe. If those warlords start coming to the Empire, I will send my soldiers to save it. I am the Captain of the royal guard after all. But hopefully my family is safe and sound once the warlords die off from old age or in war. All that is known is that they're old.”
Present day.
“Holy Shit” I said after closing the book. “This was the diary for the tyrant!” I put it under the bed. I know there's a cult problem so I put it under my bed for now.
I was laying on bed and sleeping when I heard knocking from the front door. “I'm coming!” I shouted out. I got up out of bed and put on my catalyst. The knocking continued. “Hang on, just give me a minute!” I shouted. As I opened the door there was a guard holding some mail.
“Greetings sir.” He greeted me.
I closed the door and looked through the mail and there was a leader from Celestia. It read. “My faithful student Twilight Sparkle: I've heard that you've gone to the Crystal Empire to go through the records and books to gather some information about the Empire. I am fine with this and I may ask can you bring some to canterlot? If you can, I would be grateful. From your teacher/Princess Celestia.” “Oh, this leader is for Twilight.” I told myself and put it back in the envelope and put it up. I got a shower then I went out with the leader and Sombra’s book and walked to the Crystal palace. While I was walking to the palace I saw a symbol painted on a wall on one of the buildings. It was a green eye with purple fumes coming out of it. But I continued. When I got to the palace I was greeted by a guard and he escorted me to the throne room. When I entered the throne room I saw Cadence, her husband Shining with a cup of tea, a brown griffin with a white tail and twilight.
“What do you need me for Princes?” I asked.
After humiliating myself in front of the rollers of the Empire. Twilight gave me my mail and I gave her her’s. I walked out the Palace and looked at what I got. I've gotten a check book and a leader. The leader read “Dear Moon Cuddler (Sam): I forgot to give you a check book so you can. Well feed yourself and the reason why in writing this like the modern pony is because I'm trying to get up to date on the way ponies speak and right so I'm learning on that. Also when you come back can you please cuddle me because last night I got lonely and cuddled my sister but she was too big. Im thanking on asking Vera to cuddle me. From your cuddle bud moony (Luna). PS if you can can you plz send me a leader back.”
I smiled and went back home to get ready for the day. I put the leader and book on the bed. Took a shower, got my teeth cleaned and grabbed the chack book to get myself breakfast. After a while of searching I found a place called Hayberger. it’s one of the newer buildings so it looks out of place. I walked in and a male pigasus greeted me. “How many?” he asked. “One.” I told him and he took me to my seat. Once he got me a seat, he gave me a menu and said. “Hear in a little bit I’ll be getting your order.” Then he left. As he was gone I looked around and the lase wasn't all that busy. I looked at the menu. It seemed to be a normal burger junt. But instead of meat it's hay. But there was a griffin section which had all of the good stuff. I found an axial burger. It had beef like patte, ketchup, mustard, cheese and lettuce. There was a massive hashbrown as well so I'm going to have that as well. He came back and asked.
“Are you ready to order?”
Then he left. I saw him talking to another worker or manager then that guy looked at me and then they went to the back. After a while I got my food and the staff were at the checkout area looking at me. So I started to eat my burger and the staff stared at me like I'm one of those florida men doing it’s traditional weird crime. Then some of the customers took noted and started to look at me. Soon the whole restaurant was just looking at me. I started to eat lowder to make all of them more wired out. Shortly after I got halfway through my burger a guard came and just saw what was going on and he just had that nope face and walked out. After I had my food I came up to the desk and paid. It was 67 bits for the whole thing and I went on my way. I decided to go to the train station scents where the towers were coming.
After a while an army came but not an army of guards but an army of blue collar workers. After some more time a train came with all the parts and the workers started to unload. While every pony unloaded the train I decided to read the ‘fanfiction’ I found.
Over a 1000 years ago.
Sombra was happy today, his wife asleep in bed and his servants cared for her. But sadly he is going to a meeting with the king and his advisers about the threat of the warlords.
“Your highness, these warlords are a major threat! Don't we at least get funds for the military so we can stand a chance.” Adviser Down Hoof told the king.
Sombra walked down the halls wearing an odd looking robe on him. He nodded to the guard and entered the throne room and greeted the king.
“Greeting King Darklok.” Sombra said with a panishent voice. “I've made a massive discovery in my richerch!”
Sombra was grabbed by the guards and kinked out of the palace. While Sombra walked home, Down Hoof was disgusted not by Sombra but by King Darklok but Down Hoof hatched a plan. Later Down Hoof came up to Sombra’s home. He knocked on the door then one of Sombra’s servants opened the door.
“Greetings Down Hoof what may I be at thou’s needs?” the servant asked.
Down Hoof took a seat and Smbra was notified by his arrival. After a while Sombra came down to see him.
“Adviser.” Sombra Greeted.
Sombra nodded and signaled his Servants to leave the room.
“Ok. Thou is the captain of the royal guard right.” Down Hoof said. “And the king is hated by his subjects right. How about we take over the empire, kill the king and you become king and we prepare for the warlord.”
After they made the deal, Sombra went to his journal and wrote about what happened that day.
Present day.
After we unloaded the train we put all the parts in a warehouse in the city. After that the sun was setting and it was quieten time for every pony. I decided to go to the store and get an enchanting ink, string, some white cloth and some sewing tools, because I wanted to see if the book was Sombra’s diary or just fiction. When I got home and went inside. I locked the door, put my stuff down and got to work on this changing magic. Lucky all the way back in high school I took a sewing class. So hopefully my high school years don't fall on me. I followed the drawings in the journal on this.
I sewed myself a hoodie hedging all away to the flank. It wasn't professionally made but it still works. On the journal’s drawings it seemed that the enchantment goes around the body in a pattern of spirals and circles. So soaked the strings in ink and sowed the pattern in. After some time it was finished. “Ok all I have to do is put mana feed in and…” I said while I used mana feed. I didn't work. I felt sad but when I looked at my right front lage it cached. I was going for a blue stallion but this is good for now. I felt the fabric but it seemed so real. I pulled my sleeves back and it broke the aloshen. I cleaned everything up and went to bed.
Meanwhile in a dark alley in Crystal City.
“Greetings, what is the report?” Said a hooded pony to the other.
“Log 9. For the past week has been somewhat smooth. I found a general bling to a thousand year old dictator and it is quite interesting. I learned how to change your form. But that's about it, most of it is just his day-to-day stuff. But I did tell my authorities in the Empire about the book but they just laughed at me. Twilight was here to document the books that the library had but it was just a couple of days. I've noticed that this place is a bit less developed than Canterlot but it disappeared for a thousand years and just a couple of years ago it came back along with its residents. Soo there's a bunch of cultural differences. As for the Toaster towers, they were in the digging phases. There are not a whole lot of cultists yet but I plan to ask Cadence and Shining if I can help with some of the technological bonds and the cultist problem thayer having. Oh before I forget. I had some news that Ponyville became aware of my origins because one of Twilight's friends told some pony and it went off there but it's a small mining town and It's insulated so news will take longer to its neighbors.
Also Luna and I have been sending each other leaders. They're all doing good but Luna is trying to find a cuddle buddy and I hope she succeeds in finding some pony. As for Vera, she's fine from what I gathered. Also for the past week I've been living off of easy cook dinners and some fast food. Sam out.”
I put the tape in the box and got ready for the day. I cleaned my teeth, got a shower and all that jazz. When I open the fridge and pull out a pizza. The box had a zebra with an apron on and handing the viewer a slice of pizza. I read the instructions. “Preheat the oven to 400 then remove the pizza frum the box and put it on the pan. Once the oven is fully heated put the pizza in for 30 minutes.” It read. So I followed the instructions but when I put the pizza in I slipped a little and hit the oven. It hurt but I checked myself and the oven and both were fine. I grabbed a wind up timer and started it. While I waited I decided to read some of Sombra’s journal.
Over a thousand years ago.
Sombra was in a meeting with Dowen Hoof and his guards. Theater planning how to take over the Empire.
“So we storm in or do we surround the palace?” Sombra asked.
As Dowen Hoof left the room he told Sombra a message. “All hail the new king.” then Lefing.
Present day.
The timer dinged. I put the journal on the floor and went to turn off the oven. I pulled the pizza out of the oven. I sat it on top of the oven to cool. Then I looked at the time and I still had like an hour before I had to go to work. Which is just making sure that they do their job properly and not slack off. So I cut a few slices of pizza and grabbed the journal and started reading.
Over A thousand years ago.
A few weeks of preparation there ready to attack the palace. Weeks of planning led up to this. Sombra’s army began to close into the city. He climbed one of the buildings and shouted.
“King Darklok! I demand that thou step down or we will have to auer might!”
The army went through the city. But oddly enough hardly any pony tried to stop them but there were a few that tried to stop his army but they were quickly dealt with. After a while they went by Sombra’s home and his wife waved and he waved back. Most ponies did their daily jobs while others just watched.
Meanwhile back in the palace it was a total blood bath. Guards fighting each other and nobles being blasted by mages. Dowen Hoof hid the body of the king under the bed and he blocked the door with a desk. He looked out the balcony and Sombra’s forces were just coming to the palace. He grabbed a match and set the king's body on fire and threw it over the balcony. After a couple of hours Sombra’s forces went into the palace and all that was left in the palace were Dowen Hoof and a good part of his forces.
“Sooo. Did thee thank that we were over prepared?” Dowen Hoof asked Sombra.
Every Pony shrugged and started chanting. “All hail King Sombra! All Hail King Sombra! ALL HAIL KING SOMBRA!”
Present Day.
When I got done eating my pizza I put the journal in my back bag and put my book of revolutionary inventions and my check book in the bag as well. I went to the sights checking on the workers. They were doing their job, some were taking breaks and drinking water and others were digging and putting the cables in the ground. After that I walked to the Palace to see if Cadence and Shining was available. I walked up to the Palace and there were guards and I asked them.
“Excuse me, is Princess Cadence available or is Her husband Shining armor?” “for what purpose.” they asked.
Thay let me through into the palace and I walked into the throne room and there was Cabence but she seemed to be boord. She was laying upside down and staring off to space. “Hello?” I asked. Cadence heard me and she quickly sat bake up and said.
“Oh Sam, do you have news or something for me?” She asked.
She got off of her throne and grabbed me by the tail. We got out of the palace and a handful of guards followed us. After a bit of traveling through the city and got to a black smithing place. “Oh your highness, what do you need?” the smither asked. And that when we started on the gun.
At Sam's place.
The front door was knocked down by a handful of cultists with a few spears. “We must find it! Get in every nook and cranny!” one of them said to the others. Sum went under the bed while others looked through the bathromes and one decided to eat some pizza.
“What are you doing!” The leader said to the one eating pizza.
The rebales cultist pulled out a pan and filled it with water. Then he turned on the fire. But that was very bad. The room was filled with gas and when that cultist turned the fire on it set off an explosion. The fire spread through the apartment devouring everything in its path. The windows shattered and whoever was in the blast was a fried horse. Shining Armor with his grope of solder was just a few blocks away he saw the explosion and he was scared but he marched forward to investigate. Then he told one of the guards. “Go tell cadence what happened.” Then the guard ran off to get her.
Back at the Black smithing Place.
I help the smither what the barrel is shaped and the shouting mechanism is. Cadence just watched. In the middle of assembling the back part of the gun A guard came in. “Princess there has been an attack near the City Lighbery!” the guard told cadence. Then cadence and the guard left. But me and the gray pegasus continued our work. The back side had a firing mechanism. All that had to be done is you recoule this tiger pat at the top then you have to pull the long trigger at the bottom. Once we got done with that part we worked on the reloading part which is just the barrel and the locking mechanism to keep the barrel in place. The way it reloaded was like a shotgun. After we got done with that part another guard came in and told me.
“Sir. the Prince and the princess needs you.”
My eyes widened and I followed him. During our walk I had a thought in my head. “What the fuck happened to my apartment.” Once we got there I saw my home and a massive crowd with a blind of punies, griffins and probably a few zebras surrounding the place. My jaw dropped. Glaze all over the pavement, the walls were black as charcoal and the door was just gone. Shining Armor and cadence looked at the mess. I walked in there to see if anything survived. I looked through what remained and… nuthing the tapes, the bed, everything is either flat out destroyed or beyond repair. I felt nothing, just like when I was back on Earth. Shining and Cadence came up to me and shining said. “Well then I guess you're homeless now.” Then Cadence hit him in the back of the head then they left. I heard them discussing the other side of the wall but sadly all I heard was the nose, not what they were saying specifically. After a while Cadence came up to me and asked.
“Do you want to live in the palace?”
After that discussion we left the ruined apartment and went to the black smithing place.
“Getings princes.” the smither said. “While you and your servant were gone. I made the bullets.”
When he got back with the gun and with the bullets. It didn't look as bad as I thought. The bullets are massive and it looked functional and the gun looked like a hybrid between a cannon and a shotgun. Candnce prayed and asked me and shing. “Who's ready to try it out?” We nodded our heads and went with her. Shining and Cadence knew where they were going, I just followed them. After a while we made it to this shooting range. It seemed to be made for military training. There were guards and mages and they seemed more concerned about their training than their Leader holding a weird liking crossbow thing. We walked in and Cadence asked me.
“Excuse Me Sam but how do you even work this thang?”
She pulled the trigger, I hoped it worked and a loud boom sound spreaded across the place the target dummy she was aiming at got obliterated. Every pony at the place had their eyes filled with terrier and shock. I was filled with joy that it worked and Cadence started to reload it and shout it again. She seemed to like it. A massive smile, some laughter and target dummies dead on the spot. After a few rounds she stopped and told me.
“I need more!”
After that all of us went back to the palace and when we got in we saw a line of nobles leading to the throne room. Cadence let out a long sigh and told shing. “Shing dear, can you please send Sam to a chamber.” “shore honey. See you in a couple of hours.” Shining told her before taking the gun and escorting me to one of the chambers that was available. Once we got there, Shining told me.
“OK, just don't burn the palace and you'll be fine.”
Then he left the room with the gun. The room seemed to be a similar set up like my old home back at Canterlot. A desk, a bed and a window. I put my things down, went to the desk and wrote a letter to Luna about my day then I opened the journal and started to read.
Over a thousand years ago.
As King Sombra sat in his new throne room he had a thought and asked Dowen Hoof.
“Have thou ever noticed that every winter it gets colder than the last?” Sombra asked.
After that Dowen Hoof went to the treasure room and got the heart. Sombra told Dowen Hoof the resources needed for this mega project. Then after that King Sombra went to that empty room in the middle of the palace to start carving out the magical machine and setting the parameters to make sure that the whole city was in rage. Dowen Hoof went ahead and told the one servants to go and buy the resources needed. “Ok, we will need a lot of copper, a lot of copper, some crystals and maybe some extra enchanting ink just in case.” Dowen Hoof told the servant as she wrote down everything then she belted out of the casal to retrieve them.
After a couple of hours Dowen Hoof and King Sombra met back up again.
“Well how long will the project be?” Doen Hoof asked.
Present day.
A loud BOOM startled me then I heard Cadences and Shining scream. My thought was. “Well shit!”
“Uhhhg.” I said as I woke up from bed. I did not sleep well. As I got up out of bed and put my catalyst on and went to my desk to write about what happened last night for Luna. “Dear Cute praises denim (Luna): Well last night was very interesting. Remember in the other letter I told you about the gun well Cadence and Shining decided to get ‘Active’ and use it as a ‘toy’ for the activities and they didn't know it had live ammo in it. You can guess what happened after that. Lucky if it weren't for Cadence's alicorn powers she might be dead at worst and paralyzed from the hips back at best. Sadly Shining Armor is now suffering from temporary hearing loss and I had to take the gun away from them because that was very irresponsible of them. Everyone including Shining and Cadence agreed that I should keep the gun. After I took the gun, I cleaned the ever living shit out of it and put it under my bed including the Ammo. From your cuddle bud Sam the father of the gun that nearly killed some pony. PS: I have a feeling that Once Tia finds out about this she will probably give Cadence a stern talk or give her a hard time.”
I put down the pin, folded the paper up and put it in the same envelope as the other letter and closed it. When I walked out of the room there was a guard standing there.
“Princess Cadence would like to see you in the royal dining room.” he said in a siren.
After that I went to the Royal dining room but thanks to the sheer size of the palace I had to go through a couple fights of stares, some more halls, and a library. I wouldn't be surprised if there was a park lying around. After a while I finally got to the top of the palace. I walked to the door that had a sign saying Riyal dining hall and walked in. Shining and Cadence were there. Cadence was sitting at the table waiting and shining was looking through mail.
“Hey Sam.” Cadence greeted.
Once I left the room I went a few floors down and looked for Shinings meeting room. I'm quite glad that some of the rooms are labeled because without them I would probably get lost. After a while I finally got into his meeting room. There was that brown giffin and a few guards were in the room surrounding a map of the whole city.
“Ok for Today and probably tomorrow I will be filling in for Shining Armor.” I told every pony in the room.
After that we went our separate ways. I went to my room to get my gun, bullets, Sombra’s book and my back bag. While I was walking down the hall I encountered Cadence.
"Hey Sam, do you know any kind of elixir that can get me through the night?" Cadence asked.
We went to the royal kitchen which is nice not going to lie and I looked for ingredients. We needed a crap ton of sugar, orange juice, hunny and coffee, likely the kitchen had all of that and a jar to use. While I actually made the drink Cadence asked.
“What do you usually use the drink for?”
She was in shock and I was done with the energy drink. “Here you go and make sure to drink it when you feel like you're going to fall asleep.” I told as I handed her the drink and left. Once I got out of the palace I saw that griffin and a few soldiers following him from a couple of blocks away. Once we met again we discussed where we would be going. After a while of desusing we decided to go waste even though that part of the empire is less populated, it does have a more frequent cultist attack and the west is bordering the changeling lands so we may see some abandoned hives while we survey the area. We packed our things on a wagon that was tode by two pairs of soldiers. Me and the griffin ride on the wagon as well. After a while of traveling I decided to start a conversation with the griffin.
"So what is your name?" I asked.
I told him Everything from the part where Sombra tried to figure out how changelins worked, how I partially succeeded in making the robe, and to the point where Sombra took over the Empire and built the magical field that kept the ponies safe from the cold.
"Do you have it on you?"Grover asked.
I opened my bag and handed him Sombra's journal. He looked through it not reading it, but he looked at the diagrams in the book. Then he handed it back to me.
"That seems to be a real deal." Grover said, confirming his theory. "I'm quite glad that you have it on you. If you left it back at the palace then some spy would've gotten it."
We both laughed a little and some of the guards that were polluting the wagon. After a while of just chatting the wagon stopped by train tracks there was a train coming but as it got closer we got a better look of it. It wasn't a normal train. It was bullet shaped and instead of a pipe with steam coming out of it, it had vents on its sides with black smoke bleeding from it. Its engine roared. But as soon as it came it left. After that we resumed our trip. After a while we made it to a forest. Grover took the pegasuses to the sky to scan the forest while I and the Earth bowened ponies whent through the trees. Grover found a nice spot to camp for the night. A cliff side and off to the distance is one of the most impressive things I have ever seen. An abandoned changeling hive. We can see where the forest stopped and the massive dirt patch around the hive started. The clouds loomed over us and it was getting dark.
"What a sight." Grover said.
I got to work. Unloading the cargo and putting it next to the tents. There was equipment, Lots of food and water. After a while of moving boxes out of the wagon I looked at Grover and he was just anchoring tents to the ground. Once everyone got done with the camp I looked at the place and it looked like there's not enough tents for everypony but I remembered that ponies are fine with cuddling with each other. So a tent that looks like it should hold three or four ponies may actually have like ten ponies in them, but not sure about griffins though. Some of the guards started a fire and most of them went into the tent and fell asleep while others stayed up. Grover went to sleep in the wagon. I decided to open up Sombra's journal and started to read under a tree.
Over a thousand years ago.
After long weeks of designing and testing the Crystal heart, today is the day of his very first speech to the ponies of the empire. He walked up to the balcony of the palace and started to speak to the crowd of ponies.
"Here I stand in a magical contraption." Sombra Sayed in pride. "Through my countless years of research and a few months of work we have created a palace that doesn't just house the nobles and the king of the empire but it will keep all the ponies of Crystal city. And today we forget about those warlords that are seen as divine beings but today marks a new era. An era of THE Empire! We will fight the winter, we will not let the empire and its ponies! We will advance the Empire! Our children and their children and their children's children will endure! Whoever sacrifices today will reap the rewards of tomorrow!"
The Crystal heart activated, making a bubble around the city. The crowds cheered and the nobles seemed impressed. He went back to the palace. When Sombra Walked by his bedroom his wife and the surfints that aided her crashed through the door. "The foal is coming!" Hope shouted. Sombra quickly gathered a few priests and doctors to help Hope.
It's been countless hours since hope went into labor and Sombra passed around the throne room and was very worried about his wife. Soon the doctors and priests come into the throne room. "So was it a boy or a girl?" Sombra asked. The doctors and priests just looked depressed. Sombra notested the expression on their faces and Sombra rushed through the palace shouting. "Hope!" When Sombra slammed the door open and saw his servants crying. He went over to his wife's body on the bed. "No no no no!" Sombra put his hoof on Hope's. It was cold. "Hope!" Sombra yelled. He started to cry over Hope's corpse for hours on end but after they pulled the corpse out of the palace Sombra looked at the empty bed. Then something snapped in him. His wife and unborn were gone and all he had left was the Empire. He bucked the mirror behind him. That was the day that the king of monsters was born.
Modern day.
"Well at least he didn't have his child die because he was poor." I said before closing the book. I layed under the tree slowly drifting to sleep.
"Mmmm…" I said waking up. I felt something looming over me then I felt a lick on my forehead. I quickly jumped. I shuffled whatever it was off of me and once I got on its legs I got a good look at it. It was a black bug horse thing with holes in its legs no bigger than a bit, it also had a long crack across its face. I looked to my right and there were a couple of guards amused at the scene.
"What is that?!" I asked them.
I walked to Crack and petted it. I rubbed my hoof behind the weird ear thing. Then I walked to the camp where Grover and the other guards were hanging around.
"Good morning Sam." Grover greated. "I see that you've met Crack."
After we ate some breakfast we went ahead and traveled down the cliff side. Grover, Crack and the pegasi flew down while me, the unicorns and Earth ponies had just climbed down a natrole ramp. Weirdly Crack sounded like a small helicopter when it flew. I also brought my gun. After we walked down the cliff we continued to the hive. Soon enough we were at the entrance of the hive. The remains of the old residences are no more than old exoskeletons. Crack went in without a second thought. We followed Crack in the hive.
When we got in it was insanely dark, but luckily a few mages did a light spell. Once the spells were at full strength we saw everything. Tunnels everywhere leading to God knows what.
"Split up?" I asked Grover.
So we split up into two groups. Me with my half and Grover with his half. My group decided to go up the hive while Grover's gone down. Wale Crack just kinda hoped around. There were some problems though. The hive was decking like a corpse. So there were holes leading outside, dead ends and rooms blocked off by debre. Soon a guard came running towards us. "Sir, you need to see this." The guard told me. So I followed him and so did my group as well. After a while of following him we made it to the lower level of the hive and soon enough we ran into Grover.
The room was massive, the room seemed to be pony made not like the rest of the hive, rones all over and there was a pillar at the center. Grover was examining the piller. The pillar was this icey blue and it has coerced supports coming from the floor.
“It looks like it's enchanted but who's powering it?” Grover said to everyone in the room.
I punted to one of the mages. An all white pegasus with red eyes. “You!” I commanded. “Can you please go behind this piller and use your catalyst to shine a crap ton of light for me?” I asked. He nodded his head and went to the other side of the room and did what he was told. Soon enough two more mages joined in making a triangle shape. as the light got brighter and brighter soon I saw him. King of Monsters. Sombra. All I could see, so did everyone else was his shape and texture but not his color. He looked similar to the pitcher back at the palace but a bit more undead. A crystal on his chest and there seemed to be some weirs coming out of it while part of his muscle was gone to the bone and part of his chest and shoulder seemed to be burnt.
Then we heard. “My king!” frum one of the mages. we all snapped power necks towards him. A yellow unicorn with lime green mane and he had the journal. “Soon king you'll be free!” He used manafeed on the pillars. I quickly loaded my gun, but as the machine started and made force fields around him and the other two that were lighting the place. The other two started to panic. I amended at the traitor and pulled the trigger. But I messed up making a hole in the wall and the ammo was back at camp. “Well shit!” I said in an angry tone. Crack had a good idea and just noped out of the place and I thank that was a good Idea.
“Retreat!” I shouted and everyone ran. We all ran except for one retarded who wanted to fight Sombra for some reason. When we made it to the exit of the hive we heard screaming from the lower levels. Not a charging scream but a masaker type scream. We counted to run. Once we made it to the camp. We disabled the camp and threw everything in the wagon. Soon we took off. Instead of two guards pulling the wagon it was six and all of the pegasi were flying overhead including Grover. I was in the wagon with my gun out ready to shoot that undead tyrant we have but no one chased us.
After a while of running we made it out of the forest and shortly after we all stopped dead in our tracks. Every pony was exhausted from running and flying. I decided to get some water out for everyone to help them out but when I did I saw some movement but immediately after Crack poked his head out and it seemed he got his hooves on some jam. I went ahead and grabbed the canned water and pasted it to everyone. Once we all got done drinking and resting we continued back to crystal city to deliver the news.
“Dear Sam: I'm glad that soon the toaster towers will be done. Hopefully by next week thare be done and hear really soon the holidays will start. Oh Nightmare night, Hartsworming and Lunar solis. That will be fun! We can't wait for you to come back and experience your first time in the Holidays. Ps: stay safe. From Vera & Luna” I put the letter done and notest something sticking out of the envelope. I pulled the thing out and saw a picture. It was black and white picture of Luna and Vera hugging each other. there was a righting saying. “See you soon.” I smiled and put it down.
I heard knocking on the door. “Hay sam can I come in?” I heard Grover.
After that I went out of my room and went down the stairs. As I went done I saw some guards holding the new guns the factory's been turning out. The guns also have straps on them as well. After walking out of the palace I headed to the nearest completed toaster tower. When I got to one I had to walk up some stairs then walk halfway around to get to the power switch. Once I got there I looked up and pulled the switch. The roods at its top started to glow and in mere moments I felt the warmth. Then I turned it off and gone to the next tower. A worker at the base of the tower grabbed a sticker of approval and put it on the tower. We continue this a couple more times. I climb up, turn it on and off then if it works. He put the sticker on it. Soon after a couple of hours of training towers on and off a handful of guards ran around the city yelling. “The City is Under attack! The City is under attack!” He repeated it over and over again. Every pony ran into their homes.
I quickly went down and ran to the palace. Crowds ran around and shuffled me. Trying to get to places and I saw guards rush out of the city. When I made it to the palace I heard mass panic. When I got in it was total cayoses. There were nobles running around trying to get out, Grover and Crack were nowhere to be found, some guards seemed to be having a mental breakdown and in the throne room there was a note on the throne saying. “Off to Canterlot. Love Cadence and Shining Armor.” I felt overwhelmed but then I noticed a glass of water. I got an Idea. I used my star trick and shouted Loudly. “EVERYONE LISTEN TO ME! ” as the flash of light went around the rooms and Every pony stopped what they're doing and started to listen to me. Then I began to speak.
“Listen, the monarchs are gone and Grover is nowhere to be found. So i'm going to be in charge of this ship and Im-”
Then one of the guards came up to me and asked. “What is your first order General?”
Every pony quickly disbursed and I went up to the tip of the palace and when I got there, there were mages waiting for me.
“Good,” I said. I painted the markings on the floor and ceiling. “See those markings.” they nodded their heads. “This whole room is enchanted. It may sound crazy but if we can use the whole palace as a catalyst. we could shield the city.”
Soon the mages went downstairs to get some books from the library to figure it out. I stayed in the room and looked out of the window. There was a telescope. I used it to look at the battlefield. I saw a lot. Spear men hiding behind shields and stabbing the enemy. Sombra’s forces seemed to be made up of soldiers that were basic armor but a hand the helmets controlling them. Both sides had pegasi swiping down and attacking and mages using magic lasers and shields as well. I quickly ran down the stairs to the cleaning closets. To get anemia and bleach but half way there a few guards came to me with Grover and Crack tied up and gagged with rope. “General. we found them hiding in the bathroom.” One of the guards told me. “Good tack them to the throne room and un-gagge them.” I commanded.
After that I went to the clostit I looked for cleaning products. All I needed was their ingredients wise. I quickly grabbed the anemia and bleach, then took them to the royal kitchen. When I got there I grabbed as many gars as possible and set them all on the floor. Once I got that done I rushed to the throne room. When I got to the throne room I continued to run and jumped on the throne, and when I did it moved slightly.
“So what just happened?!” Grover asked.
I went behind Grover and untied him and Crack. I went back up stares to the crystal heart. Grover followed me up as well. As we entered the room holding the crystal heart, Grover's eyes widened as he saw the mages tinkering with the pattern and Books all over the floor.
“What are you doing with the Hart!” Grover said in shock.
Then Grover flow through the window and I walked down stairs and asked a guard to go make a trebuchet. The guard ran off to gather pony power and resources to make such a thing. A while Grover with the resources I requested. He handed me a bucket filled with charcoal and the other things I requested. “Good now let's get to work.” I told him. He just nodded and followed me. When we went back to the kitchen I grabbed the bandanas and sewing stuff. I sewed two bandanas together but kept a pocket opened to put the charcoal in. After I put the coal in, I opened a jar, poured a little bit of ammonia and chlorine in it, closed the lid and went to the next jar and poured a little bit in those as well and so on and so forth. After a couple of hours of doing that I got all the jars in the room done.
I asked Grover “Can you go get a sack to put all of these jars in?” He left and just under a half an hour he got one in and we filled the sack. Once we got done filling the sack I grabbed a few guards to help us carry it to the trebuchet outside of the palace.
Then one of the guards asked. “What’s in the bag Generale?”
Once we put the bag in the guard and pulled the wagon and Grover and I walked by it. As we walked through the streets of the city. It was empty just like I needed. When I turned my head to look at the homes. One of which had a little one looking out a window. Once we reached the outskirts of the city we saw the trebuchet. The front lines looked pretty calm at the moment. Sombra’s forces are in trenches and our gun ponies laid on the ground behind short walls made of dirt. I walked up to the guards and said. “Hay we have jars in the wagon, put a couple of them in and just launch them in the trenches.” one of them nodded and said. “Ok you guys heard him.” They started to load the machine with jars and then fired. Sadly we didn't see the jars fly off because at this point it was night time.
After a while of catapulting jars we stopped because we can’t tell if it is working or not. So me and Grover decided to go to the palace but just as we were about to start walking the city went into a black out. There were mere moments of silence, then the blue laser from the palace turned pinkish purple and a magic force field was created. It encompassed the city and ended barely behind the trenches. “Go! Go! Go! Fish them out! And slaughter them!” I told every pony. I quickly trend to Grover “Tell everypony to atack.” I said to him, He nodded and flew off. Then the power came back and I decided to go back to the palace. Agen the streets were empty and a little cooler this time.
I climbed the stairs of the palace. I wanted to go to rooms that I haven't gone to. I have been in that dining hall where the staff ate their food, the verses rooms and offices but not the private rooms like one’s for nobules and rooms that the royal family can go to unless someone had permission to go two. But since I'm in charge now I cood. But I have to go all the way up to the crystal heart to congratulate the mages that worked hard on it. As I walked up the halls I noticed power cords leeding the heart. When I got there I saw the heart connected to the power grid and the mages that worked hard on it were sleeping on the ground. Not injured nor dead. Just tired.I Put out my hoof and petted the one that is closest to me, then left the room.
I walked down the halls trying to find the royal library, one of the places that I haven't gone to. Luckily most rooms are labeled because of the size of the place. Crack was walking with me. Mainly because Crack wanted company, but after a while I found the room. “Royal Library.” the sine said above the door. So I opened the door and it looked nice. Red carpet, nice dark oak shelves and three soft brown chairs around a coffee table. Sadly the table had a dark stain on it but it’s fine. I walked towards the shelfs and looked through the books to see what they had. There were books like, “Spellcaster”, “War of the Lands”, “The Love Poison” and Many more. After a while I encountered a book that I heard alot about. “Daring do” is the title of the book. Apparently it’s supposed to be a junerick adventure book but it became so popular that it became a big series.
I grabbed the book and sat on one of the chairs. Crack went to sleep on one of the other chairs. When I was about to open the book Grover opened the door coming into the room.
“Hay Sam… we won the first battle.” Grover said as he went to sit on a chair.
Grover left the room and I started to read the book. The first chapter is about Daring Do finding a map in her dead professor’s cabinet to an artifact called “the gold fix.” or something along those lines. After that part something odd happened. When I trend the page the dook was blank. I lucked up and Crack was gone and the door leading out as well. “Well then I guess that i'm asleep now.” I said out to the void that is my mind. I got up and wandered around. After a while I heard something moving in the shelves. Then I saw a snout, not just any snout but Luna’s snout. She walked forward. As she walked in I decided to talk to her.
“Hay Luna.” I said in a friendly tone.
Sefrule thoughts and emotions come through my head. Some books coat on fire and trend to ash while others turn to solid ice and some just had theater pages torn out. Cambints stretched in shape and size before valiantly crushed. When I looked at Luna. She was wipering and holding my forelage. She was scared of what I was going to say or do. I took a deep breath and then everything stopped.
“Luna… thank you. Not just for having the courage to tell me but also for thanking me.” I told her.
He stabbed his horn to my chest and I woke up. A guard slammed the door open and asked. “Are you ok Genale?!” I was breathing heavily but I replied to the guard. “I just had a nightmare, that's it.” he nodded his head and left the room. I looked around the room and Crack was gone but everything seemed normal. The book was on the floor so I picked it up and put it up and left the room. Shortly after I came across a clock and it was 6:45 in the morning.
I went to the royal kitchen to make myself coffee. The coffee maker was one of those you make the coffee yourself. So I grabbed the coffee powder and put the paper cup in the coffee maker. Boil water then put the powder in the cup and once the water was hot enuff I poured it in and made the coffee and it made a mess everywhere because I forgot the cup. I grabbed the table sheet and cleaned it up. Luckily there was a maid outside and she took the sheet.
I walked to the crystal heart to see how the shield was doing. When I looked through the window I saw cracks all over the shield. I grabbed the telescope and saw what was going on. There were Spmbra’s army bucking the shelled. Grover walked by with a cup of tea in his claw.
“Hay Sam, what are you lo- Aaaaaaaaaaa!” Grover screamed seeing the cracks.
I looked through the telescope to see what tactics they were doing. It seemed that they were running in a zigzag motion and dodging the bullets. “Grover! Go and tell the guards to fortify the palace!” I commanded. He ran to get the guards. I looked back at the battlefield and a few made it to the defenses, then more started to make it and soon folded our defenses. Knowing that Equestrian forces are on their way. I grabbed the heart and took off the cables and took it out of its place. I ran down stairs to Shining’s and Cadence’s bedroom and hid it under their bed.
All through the streets Sombra’s forces picked off any resistance. But were ready to hold on to this palace. As the gardens held on the choke points leading in the palace. Crack, Griver, nobles and the maids hid in rooms and locked their doors. I was in the throne room with my gun held high and ready to shoot whatever is coming. We all knew that this was the last chance to stop him. Time is on our side. The more time we hold off the enemy the closer our allie’s forces are. Agenulen pumped in my veins as I sat on the throne.
I heard the doors open and screams. Everything is on the line. But the noise stopped. No fighting, no screams, no sound of blades clashing. As I sat there waiting, Then one of the guards came in and said. “Your majesty-” I pulled the trigger. I got him in the lage. As I perfected, he wasn't one of my guards. His allusion broke revealing that he was a cultist. Soon the room was rushed. I had barely any time to react. I got pinned down, my catalyst was ripped off and my gun taken away. I squirmed as they put this metal cooler on me, then the dark lord himself came in. Sombra’s reanimated undead body walked up to the throne but before sitting he turned to me and said.
“Well well well. It seemed to be the otherworlder himself.”
Just as I thought they took the caller off but did not give me my catalyst nor my gun. A few soldiers followed me as I walked out the throne room. I pointed at all the hiding spots and they rushed in. After a while we finally got Grover and Crack.
“You tratere!” Grover yelled as the soldiers dragged him out.
They both nodded and two left while the other followed me. I went into a room with Grover and closed the door behind us. Leaving the solder out.
“Sam what are you doing?! I thought we were friends?” Grover said concerningly.
“Tell me where the Crystal Heart is!” I shouted and gently slapped him.
Almost an hour of fake torcher later.
Grover was lying on the bed with a few bruises and the room was totally trashed. I opened the door and walked out of the room. There was the same soldier standing his eyes wide open.
“Well he certainly has massive will. Not once did he give me a hint where the crystal heart could be at.” I told the soldier.
Then another soldier came. “King Sombra wants to see you.” he said. I followed him. While we were walking down the halls we heard a loud boom sound from outside. We continued on an aware journey. We walked into the throne room. Sombra sat on the throne. “You're free to go and Otherworlder come and sit by me.” he commanded. I came over and sat beside him. No conversation but it was nice to get to sit down. After a while of just sitting we heard clashing and fighting. Then Luna came bursting through the door and in nice blue painted armor.
“Ah princess Luna we will meet again.” Sombra said.
I quickly grabbed his horn and slammed his head on one of the arms of the throne. Snapping his horn off. Luna used her magic to stop the guards. While Sombra scrimned in pane. I ran behind the throne to get some cover. Sombra ran off to get away. Luna came over behind the throne and gave me a simile. She gave me a warm hug and she started to cry a little. I patted her on the back. I went back a little and said. “We got a monster to slay.” so we went off chasing Sombra. As we ran and Luna I decided to ask Luna
“Luna, when will the equestrian army come?”
Soon after we cornered Sombra in the royale bedroom. As we got closer to him he hopped off the balkany. “Go after Sombra. I’ll hold his followers off!” Lona said. I went to the balcony and saw Sombra use the leges to climb the wall. I decided to get on the lege as well to catch up to him. As I slowly climbed I saw the city in war but I had to keep going. I almost got to him and I saw one of the spiers. I quickly jumped at Sombra and grabbed him. We both fell on one of the bridges connecting to the spiers. Luckily Sombra broke my fall. Sombra pushed me off. I got up and attacked him. I punched him in the face and he punched me. Soon I pushed him onto the ground. With a broken nose and blood on my lip I grabbed him and started to stand on my hind legs. He was very heavy but I didn't care. “Say hi to your wife for me.” I said before I threw him off the bridge. I lost my balance and fell on my back on the bridge. I layed back and just stayed there until Luna arrived.
