>You open the doors to the throne room with a light tug of your magic.
-
5.
>"Attention!" the powerful and deep voice of your personal guard calls.
-
6.
>Anonymous is the only one in the room who salutes at his own call to attention, as usual.
-
7.
"At ease, everypony," you respond, as usual
-
8.
>Anonymous relaxes and shoots you a bright smile, just like every day before it for the past year now.
-
9.
>He marches over to stand just behind you, "for tactical reasons" he said in the beginning, though you secretly hope it's so he can check out your royal tush.
-
10.
>You make a leisurely pace along the long room and Anon is marching along, maintaining the same distance all the while.
-
11.
>The other guards in the room stifle their snickering as you both travel past.
-
12.
>They circleclop about your decision to make Anon your personal guard when they think you can't hear them.
-
13.
>Only did it because he's hot.
-
14.
>Didn't even have to do basic training.
-
15.
>Thinks he's a big shot because "the princess needs her pussy guarded."
-
16.
>Probably couldn't even handle one little changeling.
-
17.
>Sure they may be telling the truth, but you didn't accept his offer solely because you find him attractive.
-
18.
>"Princess, you've given me so much and asked for nothing in return. I don't have much to offer you, I was never very talented nor was I the brightest person back on Earth... but, if you'll have me, I would like to be your guard. To protect the one who sheltered me at my weakest, I couldn't think of anything that would bring me a greater joy."
-
19.
>How could you turn that away?
-
20.
>So you let those pompous "girl's club" mares whine and fantasize.
-
21.
>You couldn't care less.
-
22.
>The only feelings you care about belong to the human standing at attention right next to your throne.
-
23.
>His proud smile.
-
24.
>Attentive eyes.
-
25.
>Firm grip on his halberd.
-
26.
>Quick sprint in his legs.
-
27.
>Booming voice as he shouts, "Get down!"
-
28.
>Wait wha-
-
29.
>*BZZRAP*
-
30.
>"Assassin!" shouts your head guard as the two stationed by the door scramble to apprehend your would-be attacker.
-
31.
>Anonymous is hunched over in front of you, a bright green light is radiating out past him.
-
32.
>He grunts and groans loudly as the light intensifies around him.
-
33.
>A powerful roar bellows out from the shadowy figure before you as the light continues glowing brighter and brighter.
-
34.
>*THOOM*
-
35.
>The light is gone as the magic missile that was intended to kill you was shattered prematurely.
-
36.
>Emerald green smoke rises from Anonymous's lowered hands.
-
37.
>HIs body is eerily still.
-
38.
"Anon?"
-
39.
>With two clanks of his armor, Anonymous falls to his knees.
-
40.
"ANON!"
-
41.
>You rush over to him and wrap him in your wings.
-
42.
>There are green scorch marks all over the front of his armor, and while it's subtle, you can also see emerald green scorch marks on his face.
-
43.
"SEND FOR THE MEDICAL TEAMS NOW!"
-
44.
>A gentle pressure on your chest draws your attention.
-
45.
>"I did it... just like I said I would... suck it Noble Charge" he mutters before going limp in your arms.
-
46.
-
47.
>Be Anon
-
48.
>"-by force alone-"
-
49.
>"-er seen anypony move that fast bef-"
-
50.
>"-ook that missile like a mare.".
-
51.
>You blink some very heavy eyelids a few times
-
52.
>The light is blinding the first few blinks, but everything begins coming into focus soon enough.
-
53.
>You're lying in a hospital bed that's a little too small for you judging by the dangling feeling in your feet.
-
54.
>On the nightstand next to you see a large "Get Well Soon" card.
-
55.
>Taking it into your morning-weak hands, you scan over the names and dates.
-
56.
>Holy shit, you've been out for a week.
-
57.
>You look yourself over and find nothing of note.
-
58.
>Fucking potions and shit are the shit.
-
59.
>You look back to the card again.
-
60.
>Noble Charge
-
61.
>Swift Hoof
-
62.
>Trusty Shield
-
63.
>Those names stand out to you among the myriad others for some reason.
-
64.
>No wait, it's coming back to you now.
-
65.
>The assassin, they were in the room with you that morning.
-
66.
>Speaking of, It's almost sun up if you're to believe the way the dim sky looks outside.
-
67.
>You leap out of the bed and almost totally eat shit from sleepy legs.
-
68.
>Gotta keep that promise Anon, you may not be good for much, but you're a man of your word.
-
69.
-
70.
>Be Celestia
-
71.
>You wanted to check on Anonymous before heading in to run day court but Luna ate up that time to inform you of last night's events regarding suspicious activity.
-
72.
>Ever since the incident you've been working to increase security.
-
73.
>You tug the main doors to the throne room with your magic and pull them open.
-
74.
>Everyday this week just hasn't felt the same without Anonymous greeting you with his usual call to-
-
75.
>"Attention!"
-
76.
>Your head whips over to your right so fast you felt your neck pop.
-
77.
>Anonymous salutes you proudly.
-
78.
>Past him you can see two other guards also saluting.
-
79.
>You scan the room and find that everypony is saluting your arrival.
-
80.
>The look of pride on Anonymous' face makes your chest feel warm.
