Birth of NLR

Chapter 8

Held prisoner by barbaric dragons them and their stupid warrior ways I kept fighting to keep my guards alive they pitted me against dragon’s who had tried to earn their rite to kill but I slaughtered any enemy the put me up against but I received my lashes when the fight was done dash kept close to me when I wasn’t fighting and the other guards were being held in another cage the stupid lizards kept choosing me to fight thank the gods otherwise they would look weak I guess but thankfully our stealth teams came when it was feeding time the dragons were distracted and they slaughtered our guards to free us they used their weird magic that I had never even seen a unicorn do but they freed us and took us to a ship on the coast where we were saved the dragons would be angered they lost their best fighter but they won’t live long enough to find out why I’m the best but they will fear me for all eternity when I had returned home the admirals gathered around me giving my guards trouble for not taking responsibility but I told them “Shut it they are alive cause of what I went through I will not lose a man to a impudent jewel sucking lizard.” Prepare the ships were destroying the nest and their little party before weeks end.

Before I knew it we had entered the southern coast where the mountains would hide our dark sails and ships we had started to climb the mountains our Pegasai were walking with us or hover real low when we appeared the peak we surrounded the young tribe of dragons me and 50 my best walked down the peak to speak with the high elder dragon he was scarred from many a battle and we spoke insults to each other when his wings raised every pony and griffon drew an arrow or prepared a spear to throw he put his talons down and I told him “That I slaughtered 12 of your finest warrior tribesmen what could the leftovers do to a thousand more trained just like me.” He angrily gazed at me and said “Celestia let us hunt in peace in these mountains and we didn’t eat her servants but I yelled back “don’t you dare lie to anyone here I saw the bones of many dead ponies griffons and many other creatures if I wanted to I could destroy your tribe with a whistle from me and I would sleep like a foal the next night but don’t you dare say you never harmed anyone.” He replied with they were trespassers and foolish hunters.” “Then why is there a foals and younglings bone as well. I’m no doctor but I know the difference.” With my anger about to burst I ordered the slaughter of the dragons but before I could whistle the stupid twilight guards appeared with her dragon friend spike my anger would not subside and she saw that she galloped the whole way but my own guards stopped her I told her “do not stay here princess this tribe will burn for the suffering they brought upon me my kin and those who no longer can receive the kindness your princess promised them.” She sat there a moment and said “You are not a monster would you kill them to satisfy what happened to you?” I yelled at her to look at these bones when I drew my sword her unicorn guards lit their horns ready to defend her but I planted it in the ground and put one of my guard’s helmets on it and gave my prayer to every poor soul whose heart’s was gone from such an evil place.

She looked at me and I told her stay if you wish but this my call and these dragons die spike rose up and was ready to attack for his fellow kind but I looked at spike and told him that if you wish you can die with you kin but these are not true dragons they kill for fun and slaughter the weak real dragons only challenge the strong and fight with honor you will die here don die for the likes of these degenerates. He then spoke to the dragons and turned to me and said this is equestrian law not your own you cannot punish those not on your land. I was filled with anger but we were not ready to go to war so I said something that everypony knew from our society “Where my comrade’s blood is spilled is our land and we will not let these dragons go unpunished.” Dash flew to my side twilight gasped in amazement but dash did not say a word she out her muzzle to my side I had torn my stiches open from my fight with a young dragon but even Twi came to my side and told me that the twilight guard would punish these dragons but before I left with confidence the punishment would be severe I yelled from the peak “elder!” he looked at me and I tossed a lance with all my might and pierced his left eye the other dragons were angered by what I had done but the griffons who were longtime dragon layer stood beside me with the teeth of their kills around the talons with spears in hand they waved off the rest and guarded me to the ship.

When I had return home clover and her friends saw me in the hospital covered in claw marks from head to hoof I couldn't even open my eyes to see them but I heard my sisters calm gentle voice “after the parade he just collapsed will he be alright mister” the doctor said “he will be fine and you know our words to enter this room so don’t fret.” I heard dash enter the room but she never left and I drifted off to sleep after I heard her reading her daring-do book and just turning the pages. When I awoke I was told to go to the royal palace in Canterlot but I could barely move from my injuries so I told the dock to give me the herbs to hide the pain I then dressed in my armor and cape and left to a carriage when we were a few trots away I exited the carriage with just dash and my new guard Kraus a griffon whose life was indebted to me when I punished the elder dragon for the death of young griffons and older ones as well. We entered Canterlot with my limp I still tried not to appear weak but some stupid pony charged at me I wasn’t happy I looked at him and he froze in place other ponies saw the look in my eyes and moved immediately no pony even whispered they just stared at me when I got to the castle gate the guards told me “are you the head admiral?” I looked at them and told them to move or I would cut their heads off dash was saddened at how I acted and whispered “calm down your causing a scene.” I told her I know but I had to continue on this way others would be suspicious as to how I would react to being kidnapped so easily.

We entered the main hall where every royal family head stood and whispered and I heard one laugh and Kraus stared angrily in the direction and it stopped when I approached the four princesses the solar empress herself said “you are hereby arrested under the law of Equestria.” I stared at her and said I do not recognize your law and as I started to leave Luna said I should stay and hear her out then I threw my helmet at them the guards were ready to pounce till every royal saw my face dash and Kraus were in amazement at the stupidity I had just committed I yelled at them “I do not recognize those that let the slaughter of innocent and commit genocide for the good of Equestria may the gods redeem your souls and 20 of my finest stealth force zebra’s appeared behind every guard in the room 10 unicorns entered the room and the princesses asked what I was planning and I said nothing I looked at Luna and spoke loud for every pony to hear “Try to arrest me and I will tear this palace down brick by brick by brick and burn all of Canterlot and I could do it with a whistle.” I took my leave and all my forces gathered behind me as did 5 ponies who wanted to join my cause when a guard tried to shoot me with an arrow Kraus broke it with his talons and threw a spear at the pony and flew towards him I yelled at him to stop we were not causing war we were here for the princess when the royals were in uproar I heard guards behind us and her highness approached me and said you are not forgiven colt you will pay for what you did to those innocent dragons when I showed her the scars from asking to mine in the fields below she sighed and said that I’m making trouble and need to stop I was ticked off and left in my carriage leaving the helmet behind when I came to the entrance the guards tried to stop me the stealth force Kraus and dash pushed them aside clover saw me in the head admirals armor but didn’t approach everypony griffon and zebra gathered around in amazement to the unmasked man who led them some knew me others didn’t but the girls were swooned by the face and dash scared them off when I was stopped by the admirals Louie and Gretel stood beside me and told them who I was they moved and I stood atop the entrance and yelled for all to hear “I am Head admiral mid-wing may the gods be with you and Luna protect you!” I then told Clover to come home she did and her friends were nervous but I waved them inside I then wrote to our ally’s and told them that it was time and that we needed to consolidate our forces to fight the empire in the amount of 5 days tens of thousands of zebra’s and griffons appeared with their royal family’s leading them we stood on the birth of the new world.
