Load Full StoryNext ChapterThe Fillywood Militia moved slowly through the forests outside of Fillywood. There rifles were on there backs as they searched for the cultists murderers. A unicorn motioned them forward towards a unkempt shack. They surrounded the shack and stood on there hind legs as they aimed there rifles at it. They fired on the shack and heard several screams from inside. They stormed the house and found several dead and wounded cultists. They showed no mercy as they quickly bayoneted each one off the tatooed cultists.
A brown pony stood at the clearings edge and waited to go back to Fillywood. The unicorn walked out and began to order them home. " Alright, lets go..." A single shot echoed through the forest as the unicorns neck was suddenly tore open.
Everypony shouted orders as they ran to any cover they could. Shots rang out from everywhere as the clearing became a massacre. Militiapony fell left and right as they tried to run from the battle. Cultists swarmed out of the woods as the killed or wounded the last pony. A unicorn in a black robe with red symbols stained on it walked into the clearing. The cultists began tearing them apart, turning them into grim fetishes and totems. The unicorn wriggled on the ground as the robed unicorn stood over him.
" Should we attack Fillywood?" A cultist pony asked.
" No, we are only here to send a message." The unicorn said turning to leave. " The Cult, is back."
The pony smiled as he stood up to aim his musket at the unicorns face. " Night night." He pulled the trigger.
MSS Dainty Mare
" Off the starboard side!" A pony sailor shouted as a large destroyer came out of the fog.
" Into the storm, we'll lose her there!" Admiral Swiftgale shouted wiping sea water out of his green eyes.
" Are YOU insane!" Seraphim shouted." Do you have a deathwish!"
" There is no sea that can stop the Dainty Mare." Swiftgale said pridefully." Right boys!"
" AYE, SIR!" The sailors shouted as they prepared to go into the massive storm in uncharted waters.
Closer and closer they went to the cities of lights. The place of eternal peace. The place just south of Manewind yet unknown to them. Equestria.
