Far Cry: More Than Just Insanity -Cancelled-
Ally...?
Previous ChapterAlly...?
I was currently sitting in a small dark room with my shadow still in hand. The only light source was coming from the sun through a small window that was to the left of me, And the sun would be setting soon, So it wouldn't last much longer. The room was empty, With nothing but the window I was forced to sit on the floor instead of any kind of furniture. I only had the sound of the occasional creaking of the old wood to keep me company, while I'm sitting here wanting- needing answers.
The pony in the cloak had led me here, And I still don't know why. On arrival it bandaged my arm, using it's "power" to carry the materials. After it was done bandaging my arm, It said to stay here and wait for it's return, Only bringing up more questions which have not been answered.
I am still not sure about coming here, It might be trying to just capture and kill me. If thats the reason I should have no trouble dealing with it.
So here I am. Sitting on the old wooden floor, Thinking if I should just shoot the pony the second he comes in the door, Or let it live and see what it wanted help with. With each passing second I'm leaning more and more towards the first option. My thoughts are interrupted as I hear the faint sound of hoofs against dirt outside, About time. The faint sound gets closer and closer, untill it stops and I hear the sound of the old wooden door open and creak. I looked up to see a familiar cloaked pony trotting inside. I could only glare as it turned it's head in my direction.
"So, Are you going to tell me what you need help with, Or did I make a mistake not killing you?"
The lack of light that was now comming through the window with the hood that the pony was wearing didn't let me see it's facial features, But I could tell that it had a shit eating grin as it let out a small chuckle.
"Temper, Friend. Though I guess it is time to tell you what I need help with.
The pony casted a glance at the window before trotting over to me.
"Are you familiar with Nightmare Moon?"
"No."
It seemed that the pony had grown a more serious tone in it's voice than it did before.
"Then I shall tell you the story."
I laid my head against the wall I was sitting against, Wondering why every living thing in this place has a shitty name.
"She is the goddess of the moon, But for some time now, The object she once controlled has been her prison. It started many years ago when Nightmare Night and her sister, Celestia controlled the moon and the sun. Nightmare Night controlling the moon, And Celestia controlling the sun. ponies did not enjoy the beautiful night that Nightmare moon worked hard on each and every night, But instead they feared it. The fools only slept during the night instead of realizing what a magnificent peice of art it was. With the ponies not enjoying the night, Nightmare night decided to make them enjoy it."
The pony looked towards the window, And did not look back. I also looked at the window to see that the little light that was there was practically gone, Replaced by darkness. It seemed something was troubling the cloaked pony, With it's almost depressing tone at the last bit of what it said.
"One night, When it was time for Celestia to raise her over-rated sun, Nightmare Night did not lower the moon. She wanted to let the ponies see how great the night was, But the tyrant Celestia decided to not let that happen. She gathered the Elements of Harmony and banished Nightmare Night to the moon!"
That last statement was filled with anger. The pony was about to continue when it paused, And let out a sigh, Calming itself down.
"Ever since then, There was a group made to bring back the true night to Equestria. That group was called the New Lunar Republic, Something I have been apart of for years."
The pony turned it's head back towards me, The rest of it's body stiff as a board.
"The story says that Nightmare Moon was only sent to the moon for a thousand years, And once she gets back she will fight for eternal night once more."
I lifted my head off the wall and turned to the pony to see that it's attention was still directed towards me. My mind wondering if this pony might be slightly crazy, Thinking ponies controlled the sun and the moon.
"So what do you need help with, And what does it have to do with this?"
"Nightmare Moon will be released in three days, And we need to make sure Celestia does not get the elements. If we succeed, The moon goddess will surely repay us."
"Does she have the powers or magic that you have?"
"Yes, But very much stronger than mine."
I stood up from my position and then glanced at the window, Seeing a few stars.
"Can she... Teleport?"
"Yes."
She might be able to send me back to Earth, Being a goddess and all.
"Fine, I will help you, But if I find out that this is fake, Or that this "Nightmare Moon" can not grant me what I want. I will kill You, The members of "The New Lunar Republic," And Nightmare moon."
"This is great news, I will send my commander a scroll about this. He should be very pleased about more help."
I held my hand up to stop him before he could do anything.
"Before you do that, Do you know where the town is and how to get there?"
"Just follow the path outside of the building, Why do you ask?"
I walked to the door and put a hand on the old wood it was made out of.
"I need to visit someone."
With a single push, I was once again met by the gloomy and dark Everfree forest.
