Legends of Equestria: DemonStorm
Dawn before the War
Previous ChapterNext ChapterIt had now been three days since Celestia had sent word to the dragons. There was nothing. Everypony were waiting at the gates of Canterlot, they had been for three days now. No dragons, and no demons. No anything. Everypony stood in a line staring into the sky. However everypony was becoming restless, mainly the members of the group from other worlds. Haze had walked in to the room of those Split survivors to check on them. Not only was Chari and the two children in the same bed, but Thomas was asleep, sword at his side. And Orga, Orga was sitting still on a chair close to the door with his bow notched and ready.That had been fun, to say the least. It was only a matter of time before they all asked to go home. They weren't meant to be here, and were only staying for the honour of fighting the Mo'ka, or in some cases, getting vengence on them.
"Maybe they have given up." Korgal suddenly declared. Everypony looked to him in comfusion.
"Who?" Haze asked of the Orc.
"The enemy, the Mo'ka." Korgal replied.
"No." Orga muttered, all eyes went to him. "They will never give up until every living thing in the Multiverse is dead. Inifite possibilities you say? They wish for one, the Mo'ka Multiverse." The Elf added.
"Well. Fuck." Nick declared. Somehow everypony had gotten use to the fact Nick was a magical talking knife. Thankfully with minimal explanation.
"Dragon!" Spectra shouted. Pointing a hoof, everypony looked to where he was pointing and he was right. One lone dragon was flying toward Canterlot. It was huge. The sun was behind it, lowering for late afternoon and the sclaes reflected a bright green colour. The air made the sound of wings flapping as it neared. Everypony prepared weapons, just in case.
It eventually landed just outside of Canterlot. This dragon was generally huge. A wing span of over fifteen feet at the least, a long spiked tail and big black eyes. It's claws alone were bigger than Thomas' broadsword, and would easily win a fight against the warrior.
"I will deal with this. Hopefully your dragons speak the same language here as ours did." Orga declared and walked forward. He began to speak in a strange language. Fluttershy squeaked and hide behind Twilight, scared out of her mind at the sight of the huge creature.
"Okay, war over. Can I go home now?" Fluttershy declared quietly.
"No Fluttershy, we need you and your Element. We could use them, use a huge spell from our combined powers and at least damage the enemy." Twilight replied. Stroking the yellow mares hair softly to calm her down.
"Haze." Heart Breaker said quietly, standing beside his friend.
"Yeah?" Haze asked.
"What are we doing here?" Heart Breaker asked.
"What do you mean? We are fighting for our home."
"I mean, why are we here, in Equestria. We should've stayed at home, where it's safe."
"But the Mo'ka would have still come. We have no control over our fates Heart, you should know that by now."
"Yeah but thousands of years in our future."
"Heart, Crystal is a human who is thousands of years in our future. If we had stayed home, not only would it be that kind of human controlling Equestria, but he would be alone fighting the enemy. Anyway, we would all have died had I not been transported to here. This is my home now Heart. Fuck Earth." Haze replied. Heart Breaker nodded.
"How did you get your memories back anyway?" Heart asked.
"I told you. You can't take something as painful as that day away from me." Haze replied calmly.
"You are taking it rather, well." Heart dared to say.
"No." Haze replied, looking down. "No I'm not. Just saving it up. These Mo'ka aren't getting away with it. Just be gretaful I haven't let Spectra tear Crystal's throat out yet. Although I must say they are getting more, together. Getting along, a bit." Haze added. His wings flapped a bit and he waved his head about to get some hair out of his face. Heart just laughed.
"Need a damn haircut mate." He laughed.
"Heart. Have you looked at your tail recently?" Haze replied, it was true. heart's tail had nearly made it onto the floor now. The Austrailian turned pony blushed. The dragon suddenly shot up into the air and flow away, Orga turned and walked toward the group.
"So?" Nick asked. "How'd it go?" The knife added.
"We have until tomorrow afternoon. Once the dragons get here, we need to go. So. I guess this is the quiet before the war." Orga replied. Pinkie Pie began to jump up and down.
"We have already got a chapter called that! It should be 'Dawn before the War'!" Pinkie shouted smiling. Everypony went silent. Celestia walked out of the city.
"Where are we at?" The Goddess asked.
"We have twenty-fur hours. Once the dragons arive. We need to move." Orga replied quickly.
"Better get prepared then. Everypony. Get some sleep. It will be a long fight tomorrow." She ordered, everypony nodded and began to walk back into the city. Luna passed the group as they entered the gates. The two sisters stood together watching the group go inside of the city.
"They're going to die aren't they?" Luna asked. Celestia jumped slightly.
"Sorry?" She asked.
"As much as I hate to think it. It's true isn't it. They are all going to die." Luna rephrased. Silence from her sister. Ce;estia looked down to the floor.
"Yes." She answered. "They are." Celestia added. They watched the group enter the city and all hope was lost.
