Chapter 2:

As the day went by, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash and Twilight Sparkle carried the stallion to a small cottage just outside of the Everfree Forest. Twilight walked up to the door first and knocked on it, a small, gentle tone was heard in response.

“Who is it?....” the voice said shyly.

“Fluttershy, it’s Twilight, Pinkie and Rainbow, we have a…..uhm….well we have a pony you might want to see, may we come in?” Twilight replied unsure.

The door creaked open as a pink maned mare with a yellow body peeped her head out and saw the trio standing in front of the door, she opened the door further and looked at them confused “Where’s the pony you wanted me to see..?” She asked.

Twilight motioned Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash to move, as they did Fluttershy held a hoof to her mouth as she saw the unconscious stallion on the ground “Oh my goodness! What happened to him?” she quickly walked towards him and leaned down. Her eyes widened more as she saw the feint fog coming off him as the cold mixed with the warm air.

“We found him like this in the apple orchard…” Twilight said

“And he’s cold as an ice cube too!” Pinkie said with her usual perky voice

Fluttershy set one of her hooves gently on the stallion then immediately took it back at the ice cold feel he had. “Oh my…please help him inside, near the fire…”

They all helped each other carry the stallion inside Fluttershys cottage and set him by the fire. Fluttershy looked at his armor then cautiously took off his helmet. “Girls, could you please help me take off his armor?”
Twilight looked at Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie and nodded, they nodded in returned and helped unbuckle the many straps. Twilight took off the front hoof guards as pinkie took off the hind ones. Rainbow Dash heaved the main body piece off him and made a huff under its weight.

“How the heck do guards heave this armor on them ALL the time?” Rainbow Dash asked setting the armor on the floor.

Twilight looked at one of the hoof guards and looked up at Rainbow Dash “I don’t think this armor is modern like today…. This type of armor is a lot older than you know….look at the design, this is old Lunar Armor”

“That doesn’t answer my question Twilight…” Rainbow Dash said with a roll to her eyes.

“Well armor was made with heavier materials back then…”

“Woah…” Rainbow Dash looked at the stallion who was now undressed and laying by the fire

“He looks like a strawberry cupcake!” Pinkie said looking closely at his fur “He’s all red and stuff”

Fluttershy placed a blanket over the stallion and sat down beside him, watching over him.

“Fluttershy are you going to be alright?” Twilight asked.

Fluttershy looked back at Twilight and gave her a soft smile “Of course! I just want to make sure he’s alright when he wakes up…”

“Are we even sure he WILL wake up?” Dash asked

“Of course! He was breathing before his armor almost froze my ear off” Twilight replied.

“Just like an icicle! No wait! A giant ice cube! Or, or a blizzard! Or uhhhm…..” Pinkie began to trail off before they heard a low groan. They all turned and faced from where the groan originated. The stallions’ wings shuffled as water began to drip from them. Twilight, Rainbow, and Pinkie all looked at Fluttershy who was leaning back, looking at his wings with wide eyes, she looked back at Twilight with the same expression. Twilight motioned her to stay as she was as the stallion slowly got up and shuffled himself, his fur poofing up making him look twice as large and very soft.

Pinkie laughed and fell over, “He looks just like a teddy bear! Ahahahahaaa!!” She continued to laugh with a snort.

Fluttershy stiffened and looked at Pinkie, just as Twilight and Rainbow were doing the same thing, the stallions’ head popped up and slowly looked around seeing Fluttershy, his face showing distress and confusion. He held up a hoof to his side with a startled jump as Pinkie Pie slowly rose up beside him and held out a hoof.

“Hiya! I’m Pinkie Pie! What’s your name?” Pinkie said enthusiastically.

The stallion looked at Twilight who in returned glared back at him. He then looked at Fluttershy who yelped and jumped behind her couch, lastly he looked at Rainbow Dash who perceived to look as intimidating towards him as possible.
He looked at Pinkie Pie and slowly held out his hoof, shaking hers, “uuuhm….S-silver Blade ma’am…” his voice was rugged and deep yet gentle, but still had an authoritive feeling when he spoke.

“You remind me of a tree!” Pinkie giggled looking at his emerald green eyes that glowed slightly against the dark.

His eyes narrowed and looked at her “Thou ist a strange one, where art we at, Pinkie Pie?”

“We’re at Fluttersh-” Pinkie Pie was cut short as Rainbow Dash tackled her, covering her mouth and whispering in her ear “Don’t tell him where we are. He might be evil!” Pinkie nodded with her puppy eyes and made a muffled ‘okay’.

Twilight slowly walked up to Silver Blade “S-so….A-any idea on how you ended in Sweet Apple Acres?”

“Sweet Apple what? Thine hath never heard of such a place…” Silver tilted his head with a confused glance.

“We found you lying unconscious on the ground in the apple orchard…” Twilight looked at him. “W-what exactly happened?”

Silvers head rose slightly, “We were in the Chrystal Caverns…..We were defending the Princess from Celestia…”

All four of the girls immediately stopped what they were doing, sitting next to Twilight, Pinkie pushing them all over when she rammed into their sides. Silvers eyes widened as they did this and scratched his head.

“Was it something I said?”

Twilight got back up, and glared at Pinkie who shrugged with a giggle then turned her attention back to Silver “When you mean guarding the Princess from Princess Celestia, do you mean Princess Luna?”

Silver smiled and nodded “The one and only ma’am though thou ist known by a different, yet false, name” He growled.

“And what name was that Silver?” Twilight asked.

“Nightmare Moon…” Silver replied

Fluttershy sunk slightly when he said nightmare moon “y-you followed under her?” she said in a very soft voice. Rainbow Dash patted Fluttershys back to comfort her.

“Of course ma’am, we were great followers under thoust rule” He walked towards Fluttershy and leaned in, noticing how she cowered, he flapped his wings and patted her shoulder. As Fluttershy looked up at him he smiled, taking his hooves out and wrapping them around her as she screamed and began crying before realizing she was being hugged.

“I am sorry for thou distress ma’am…” He continued hugging her, “what ist thou name shy one?” He held her out, Fluttershy hanging off the ground and heard a slight growl as Rainbow Dash neared him.

“Put her down, I don’t wanna get rough on you” She spoke in a quivered but iron tone

He chuckled and looked at her, his eyes glowing lightly against the light “Rough on me? Thou ist a fairly stubborn mare, I am a Colonel of Lunas Guard, I didst not get thine rank for nothing” He laughed more before looking back at Fluttershy “I whilst not hurt thou, I merely would like to know thou name…” He spoke gently in effort to ease her distress.

Fluttershy looked at Silver in fear as she was held up and shut her eyes “Will you put me down if I do?” she said scared.

“But of cour-” Silver was cut off by Rainbow Dash.

“Who are you calling a stubborn mare!?” Rainbow Dash yelled at him, enraged.

Silver glared at her then looked at Twilight “Thou ist the smartest correct?”

Twilight looked around then nodded “I don’t want to brag but I am considered the smartest in Ponyville”

Silver set Fluttershy down and looked at Twilight “Ponyville? Ist thine in a different land? Or ist thine still in the land of Equestria?”

Rainbow Dash glared at Siler and stomped towards him before Pinkie Pie tackled her “Woah! We got ourselves a feisty one! Yee haw!” she laughed as Rainbow tried shaking her off before whispering in her ear “I don’t think you could do much against him right now and I think we would scare Fluttershy waaaaay to much”.

Rainbow Dash looked at Pinkie Pie with a surprised look, “Pinkie is there something wrong with you? Because you just made sense….”

Pinkie Pie giggled and shrugged “I have no idea what I was talking about…”

Twilight watched as Pinkie talked with Dash then turned her attention back to Silver whom was still waiting for the response to his question patiently.

“Well we are still in Equestria, but im confused, what do you think is happening right now?” Twilight asked, wondering if he thought he was still in his original timeline.

“What dost thou think ist happening? There is a war going on…” Silver replied quite calmly

“Why are you acting so calm?” Twilight asked.

“When one is in war, thou must think, nothing good comes out of making brash decisions, like thou rainbow maned friend, thou didst not think about her opponent, what may have happened. Thou must hath a calm mind and think before react”

Twilight gazed infatuated with what he said and smiled “You are a very knowledgeable guard Silver… but im afraid you are wrong when there is a war going on….”

Silver looked at her confused “what dost thou mean?”

“I mean there is no more war Silver; the war had ended, almost one thousand years ago…”

Silver staggered back, his heart beating faster “Impossible… we were there merely three days ago…where ist thines armor?”

Twilight looked at him then looked at Fluttershy “Fluttershy, may you please tell him where his armor is?”
Fluttershy shook her head quickly and huddled closer to a corner. Twilight walked over to her and pushed her up onto her hooves “I promise you he won’t hurt you, you are the one who put his armor away, show him where it is, I’ll be watching to make sure he doesn’t do anything wrong”

Fluttershy looked up at Twilight and nodded in a quivered fear, getting up and slowly walking past Silver whom followed close behind, Twilight watched them both closely and neared them as they walked up the stairs.

Fluttershy walked to the center of the second floor and showed him his armor; it was all neatly laid evenly, the hoof guards set beside one another in front of the body portion with the helmet laid a top of the piece. Silver smiled and patted Fluttershys back. “We thank thou Miss Fluttershy…” He picked up the helmet and pulled his mane back in a crude fashion before setting it atop of his head, he then picked up the body piece and buckled each latch on, he lastly slipped into his hoof guards and looked at Twilight with a serious expression.

“We hast to hath been gone longer than we originally thought... I trust thou words...miss....What ist thou name?” Silver looked at Twilight.

“I am Twilight Sparkle....” She replied

“AND I’M PINKIE PIE!!!” Pinkie said from the ceiling before falling onto the floor face first “oof!”

Silver leaned in and looked closely at Pinkie, “I see no horn yet thou hast walked on the ceiling....”

“Pinkie is Pinkie, she doesn’t need to have a horn to be magic...s-somehow....” Twilight replied

Silver continued to look at Pinkie “Outstanding....”

Pinkie giggled “You still talk funny!”

Silver popped his head up and looked at Twilight “Ist there something wrong with thines speech?” He asked

“There is nothing wrong with your speech Silver...is just a bit old fashioned...”

“Heck yeah to that” Rainbow Dash said, flying from the stairway to them.

Silver looked at all four of the girls and smiled “Maybe the four of thou might be able to help thine recognize thou new age...”

Twilight smiled “We would be happy to help! Right girls?”

Pinkie nodded exhilaratingly, “Yeah! Oooo~! This is so exciting! I should have made cupcakes!”

Rainbow Dash crossed her hooves and blew back her mane “yeah, I guess it would be kinda cool to show you our stuff” She held in her excitement to show him her dare devil moves.

Fluttershy cowered back and looked at them “W-when did I agree to this?”

Pinkie giggled “Since you lead him to get his shiny stuff silly!”

Fluttershys ears dropped “o-oh my...”

“Before we go, may we ask what hast happened to thines sword and shield?” Silver asked, confused.

They all looked at eachother then back at Silver, “You have a shield?” They asked at the same time, except Fluttershy, who was still overwhelmed with all that has happened.

Twilight was about to speak before her ears dropped and looked at the ground “We...we kind of left your sword at Sweet Apple Acres on accident...”

Silver looked at Twilight and stood there for a moment, “I believe an accident is alright ma’am, thou shall be forgiven, please lead me to.....erm...Sweet Apple Acres”

Twilight nodded as she teleported all whom were in Fluttershys cottage, to Sweet Apple Acres.
