Nightmare Anon chapter 7.
-
-
>You're Anonymous, the disturbed cretin!
-
>No really.
-
>You Mcfucked Up good this time!
-
>When carrying little, dying filly to the hospital, you decided to start talking to yourself out loud, like a fucking retard you probably are.
-
>Well, technically you were talking to an fanthom alicorn goddess that you were fused with.
-
>That's even worse!
-
>You were referring to her, by her name!
-
>For many inhabitants of this world, hearing that name only, was enough to start shaking in fear.
-
>Scootaloo must have heard you very clearly, when you were arguing with her, during your 'great' rescue mission.
-
>In all likelihood she was in enough pain, not to pay attention to it immediately, but after it was gone, she had connected all the dots.
-
>She had told you that she is 'sure' that you constantly have some kind of a connection to the awed Nightmare Moon!
-
>Oh boy, she didn't even know how much she was right.
-
>She is still sitting there, in her hospital bed, with her orange hoof pointed in your direction.
-
>She is waiting for your answer.
-
>You must do something quick or you'll have no choice but to spill the beans.
-
"He..he..he, he, he! You got me good! Nice imagination there Scoots, if I couldn't tell you're joking, I would start to worry, that you had hit your head one to many times, before I have found you."
-
>Her hoof dropped, just like her jaw.
-
>"Wha.. this is not a JOKE! Anon, I'm dead serious here!"
-
>She even whacked the bed with her other front hoof, to prove a point there.
-
>You extended both of your hands in front of you, in a 'calm yo tits' gesture.
-
"You know, you were in serious pain there. There is no shame in having hallucinations, in that kind of a state. I mean, your life was in real danger. People tend to see and hear 'things' before they um.. sorry to be so blunt here.. die."
-
>She was not being swayed by your explanation, quite the opposite.
-
>She smiled deviously.
-
>"You told me there to hang on, to conserve my strength. To do that I couldn't think about the pain, instead I focused on the world around me. I know how to do that, because I'm doing this riding my cool scooter, all the time, to not to ram into somepony."
-
>She was gesticulating hard with her little hooves.
-
>"I had heard you saying 'DO IT!' to her and then 'BAM!' we were moving so fast from that point on! With my half-lidded eyes I saw you had those huuuge black, energy wings again, that wasn't there before! It was so cool!"
-
>Man, the epicness of that moment intensifies.
-
>Regardless, you folded your arms at your chest.
-
"In my world we had a saying 'pictures or it didn't happen'. That means, as long as you don't give me a proof that I have something to do, with that whole Nightmare Moon, my 'that was all hallucinations' point, still stands."
-
>She didn't even flinch.
-
>Dayum, what a stubborn little filly you got there Anon!
-
>She reached for the book, she was reading before you came to her room.
-
>"Look, I hate to read, but this time I made an exception. I asked nurse Redheart, while she was here in the early morning to check on me, for a book related to what I know about you and your powers. Seeing that you're the only one of your kind here, she thought that I wanted to read some fiction about mythical magical creatures. She had brought me this."
-
>She showed you the title of the book, she was holding.
-
>'All you ever wanted to know, about those elusive magic beings in Equestria.'
-
>If somebody ever asked, this had looked like a 5 tons of bullshit-fiction for you.
-
>She opened the book, somewhere in the middle and turned it to you once again.
-
>"This particular chapter caught my interest the most."
-
>As you were reading the chapter title, her smile widened even more.
-
>'Pros and cons of being in league with an powerful spirit.'
-
>She had closed the book.
-
>"You know, I read about quite interesting things in that chapter. For example, asking your 'powers' to appear, when you most need them, is a strange way to use them if you had them from the start in this world. I think you asked 'somepony' elese, to 'lend' them to you, if you catch my drift."
-
>Contain this orange detective right here, she drives you to drink!
-
"Th-That is no proof a-at all. I...I was encouraging myself to gave 110% of what I had, to be in the hospital as quick as possible. Bear in mind, that I was batteling my own fatigue back there, it was preety late already when I found you. Please stop acting like a child, that heard something with one ear around the corner and now is telling a difrent story to everyone elese."
-
>Smooth, you dumb faggot.
-
>Calling her a 'child' was such a reasonable move.
-
>She had thrown the book on the other side of the bed.
-
>There was a crazy determination in her eyes.
-
>"You... you called me what?! I was hopeing that it will never come to this, but now I think I will act as a real child from now on! Say, if you won't tell me the truth, I'm going to tell everypony what I think about your powers. Belive me, I know Twilight enough to tell, she will start sniffing around you again, with that kind of jucy information about you flying around. She will probably do this to clear your good name, but who knows what she'll find."
-
>Low-blow Scoots, such a low-blow.
-
>Though, you can't say, you're not proud of that little orphan filly.
-
>You had to have a pair of 'big hairy balls' to fight for your point of view, with that fierceness.
-
>Shame, that she was playing dirty and you had no other way, but to play along.
-
>You squint your eyes dangerously and clenched your fists.
-
"Let's say, you could be right about me, having some connection to Nightmare Moon."
-
>You walked up to the only window in this room and in one swift motion shut the curtains in them.
-
>There was now half-dark inside.
-
>You circled her bed and stand on the other side of it.
-
>By doing that, you towered over her, with an evil look, cutting her from her probably escape route, to the only door.
-
>You hated to do this, but the 'creepy' stuff was your last chance at drawing her away from the truth about you.
-
>You bowed down to her eye level.
-
>She was trying to act cool, but you could tell she was sweating a little from that turn of events.
-
"Let's say I could tell her, that this particular little, orange filly knows about this."
-
>You straighten up.
-
"Let's also say, that I could do that without leaving this room and that she could be here any second."
-
>You looked at her from high up, doing a wide motion with your hand.
-
"I can't see any sweets in this room she could eat to state her hunger. Maaaybe except this one, mentioned earlier, little orange one in front of me."
-
>You smiled mischievously.
-
"What would you do then, Scootaloo. What would you do?"
-
>She has clenched her teeth.
-
>When she started to speak, she felt unsure of what she was telling.
-
>"I'm.. I'm not afraid of her, a-and you! I-I still want to see her!"
-
>Your 'scary mask' cracked.
-
"WH...WHAT?! Do you wanted to be eaten so much?!"
-
>You start flinging your hands around.
-
"Have you gone mad, through the night. I simply can't beli..."
-
>'Somepony' had broken your rant.
-
>~"NO!*huff*I want to *gasp* t-talk with her!"~
-
>It was Nightmare.
-
>She was still very tired, breathing hard, after that spell, which she used on Derpy.
-
>After what Twilight had told you, you were surprised she wasn't sleeping right now.
-
~"You are in no state to talk to her right now! Even, if you would be, there is no way for you to communicate with her. What do you want me to do, crack my skull open and show you to her!?"~
-
>Butthurt, butthurt everywhere Mr. Anon.
-
>~"Again, *huff* with that small faith *gasp* in my powers. There *huff* is a way! You forgot about *huff* our little power reserves. You must *gasp* lend me *wheeze* your body's stamina, *huff* once again, for this to succeed. DO IT!"~
-
>Jezz, how about a 'please' from time to time.
-
"You have asked so nice, but let me just know - why? Why would you agree on this?!"
-
>~"You can *huff* call me many things,*gasp* but a coward that won't show *huff* herself is not one of them! Not *huff* not EVER!"~
-
>Scootaloo was looking at you with widening eyes.
-
>Maybe she was starting to be afraid of what you might do to her.
-
>You can't have that.
-
>You think she is the only pers.. um pony, that would jump into the fire to save you, in this town.
-
>You dropped your hands.
-
~"Okay, let's go with your plan, tell me what to do. Bare in mind that, if you do something to her, I'll find a way to pull all of your fangs out."~
-
>As Nightmare told you the instructions, and to 'fuck off' with your small threat, you came up to the one of the walls in Scootaloo's room.
-
>Putting one of your palms on it, you turned to Scootaloo.
-
"Well, you got what you had bargain for. Hope you'll like it."
-
>She gulped hard, and nodded her head.
-
>You felt your energy being used and redirected in the form of a magical discharges to your hand.
-
>These, in turn, skipped on the wall you hold your palm to.
-
>Soon, the whole room was shining with little magical lightnings, from the floor to the ceiling.
-
>It had looked like you were trapped inside of some cube, made out of dark and blue electric energy.
-
>Scootaloo was positively taken by this sight.
-
>"Wow! I didn't know you can do something like that, you would be so much better at casting fireworks, than this crazy blue mare from that squeaky wagon!"
-
>You didn't got a clue of who she was talking about, but you smiled nevertheless.
-
"*huff* You didn't saw anything *huff* yet, Scoots!"
-
>She caught on your quickened breath there.
-
>"Are you okay?!"
-
>She jumped out of the bed and came to you, probably to help you or something.
-
>"Why are you so tired all of the sudden, is this spell so complicated?!"
-
>You raised your free hand in a calming gesture.
-
"You don't even know. I'm creating a form of a negative space in this room for her. Normally if our guest of honor, would appear in a normal circumstances, she would start bleeding with power. That would put her life in danger right now, because she has so small of it left. Various reasons, don't ask."
-
>Scoots looked around.
-
>"What if somepony came here and see her?"
-
>You asked the same thing to Nightmare, so you can give an explanation she gave you.
-
"There is no chance *huff* for 'anypony' to see her, if he or she is not in the room already. It would take just a little *gasp* poke from the outside world, on the negative zone here, for it to *wheeze* close in a blink of an eye. If somepony will open *huff* the door or window or anything, he or she would only saw us, standing here. Nightmare would be *huff* back from were she came."
-
>Scootaloo nodded her head.
-
>"Oookay, I think I get it, but..."
-
>You interrupted her.
-
"Please *huff* If you got any questions ask *gasp* her instead."
-
>You pointed your finger to the center of the room.
-
>At the center was still growing ball of blinding energy.
-
>When it popped without a sound, there was a grown, dark alicorn mare in full set of armor, standing in the room.
-
>In opposite to you, she looked quite regal and rested.
-
>Damn her, she must had taken some extra energy from you to look presentable and shit.
-
>You must talk to her later, to what lengths she is capable of taking this whole 'royal image' crap.
-
>Scootaloo started to back away behind you.
-
>You had put your free hand on her head and stopped her.
-
"What's wrong *huff*, don't like what *huff* you see?"
-
>Fucking troll Anon activated!
-
>Standing in place where she had appeared, Nightmare looked at her, with her predatory eyes.
-
>"DON'T..Don't be afraid of ME, little one. I won't do you any harm. I'm here to talk to you, just like you wanted."
-
>Big sharp teeth, dangerous eyes, dark powered voice.
-
>You remember your first meeting with her and you don't envy Scoots her's right now.
-
>You patted her on the back.
-
"Go. It will be all right. I promise."
-
>Famous last words...
-
>Scootaloo squint her eyes courageously.
-
>"I-I'm not afraid. O..only little babies a-are afraid of somepony like t-that."
-
>So, please, tell where is this all spaghetti coming from?
-
>High five in the way, you glorious troll you.
-
>Naah, you didn't say that out loud, even if you wanted she was already on her way to meet with the onyx alicorn.
-
>She stopped in front of her.
-
>She was looking at Nightmare's slowly flowing mane.
-
>"Wow, just like princess Celestia's but less girly like!"
-
>You were talking about those 'big hairy balls' there, don't you.
-
>Now you're thinking, that she's got a pair bigger than yours, hidden somewhere.
-
>Moonie just arched her brow, hearing that 'statement'.
-
>Suddenly, without any warning, Scoots launched herself at her front leg.
-
>She hugged it hard.
-
>"Thanks, oh thanks for helping Anon to save me back there in the forest and for giving him the power to take me to the hospital so quick! You're the best evil being I know of!"
-
>Nighty had a 'face' like she was just being caught at shitting in the bushes.
-
>If not for your still growing fatigue, you would laugh so hard right now.
-
>As befitting of a 'queen', she composed her act really quick.
-
>"E-evil? Let me tell you, that I'm necessary evil, as long as that old, white hag is sitting on..."
-
>Wut, really?!
-
>You interupted her.
-
"Really Nightmare, *huff* you will speak about politics and world principals, to a child that *huff* just thanked you for saving her life?!"
-
>Miraculously, she saw your reason.
-
>"Ye..I mean NO. I mean, you're welcome little one. I'm glad that your life flame still burns."
-
>Scootaloo finally let go of her armored leg.
-
>"You can call me Scootaloo or Scoots if you want um.. queen Nightmare!"
-
>First a little shyly, then with more courage, Nightmare laid her hoof on her head.
-
>"Of course I will, brave Scootaloo."
-
>Man, If you could, you would melt from the scene before you.
-
>Nighty even smiled a little there!
-
>Scootaloo's smile widened for a few seconds, but then dropped suddenly.
-
>"Say, what happened to Miss Hard Feather? Did I ever see her again?"
-
>Nightmare had taken her hoof back on the ground.
-
>"I won't lie to you. You had proven that you're capable of seeing through those. Let's just say, she was taken care of and you won't see, her hideous hide ever again."
-
>Scoots ears dropped.
-
>"D-Did she suffered?"
-
>Nightmare laid down, to be almost at the standing filly's eyes level.
-
>"She has gotten what she deserved. Don't be sad about it, this is one of the most important rules in live, you rip what you sow."
-
>Shame she didn't took her own advices to her heart.
-
>However, looking at her behavior from another angle and what she has done to Derpy, maybe she started to do that.
-
>Scootaloo brighten a little.
-
>"A..a-at least there will be a little peace at the o-orphanage now."
-
>Though, she didn't look happy to talk about that building and what it meant to her.
-
>Nightmare wanted to say something to that.
-
>"Pray tell, what is wrong with..."
-
>Regardless, you had to interrupt her once more.
-
"I'm sorry *huff* f-for butting in, b-but *huff* I can't do that anymore. *gasp* If you won't stop *wheeze* this spell, I will *huff* fall on my face *gasp* right here, right now!"
-
>Nightmare was already standing on all fours.
-
>"I thought, I made your body more resilient than this, but alright, know the grace of your queen!"
-
>She turned to Scoots
-
>"Farewell brave Scootaloo, I pray that the life never caught you unprepared for its traps."
-
>Little orange filly's smile was bright as a day.
-
>"See you later queen Nightmare!"
-
>Slowly disappearing, Moonie arched her brow.
-
>"I am afraid that there will be no more of our meetings in the future"
-
>Scoots was waving her hoof goodbye with the power of thousand pendulums.
-
>"You will never know!"
-
>Nightmare didn't respond to that.
-
>The room was back to it past state.
-
>You, tired like all hell, collapsed on your ass.
-
>Painful/10, would almost crushed your tail bone there.
-
>Scoots was with you in a second.
-
>"Thank you, thank you Anon! I knew I was right, she wasn't so bad after all!"
-
>Walking on your knees, you responded.
-
"My pleasure *huff* Scootaloo, but please don't tell anyone, *gasp* and I mean anyone, even your best *huff* friends, about what happened *huff* here."
-
>You were closing on the doors premises.
-
"Please excuse me now, I need to lay for a while in one of those empty rooms, and no, you can't go with me. Stay here and wait for a nurse to check up on you."
-
>She was not to happy to hear that.
-
>"Fffine."
-
>Regardless, she layed on her bed again, waving with her small hoof in your direction.
-
>"Have a nice sleep Anon, see you again!"
-
>Walking out from her room, like a first class drunk, you waved back, but didn't said anything.
-
>Too tired for that now.
-
>Walking on wobbly legs, you came at the main reception desk.
-
>Behind a stack o charts, there was some yellow mare sitting in the usual nurse's Redheart place.
-
>She asked you what you need and do you feel alright, because you were swaying like mad there.
-
>You wanted to replay that you were looking for a place to rest, but collapsed on the floor instead.
-
>Falling down you had dropped all the charts from the desk, on the ground with you.
-
>Lying there, breathing hard something caught your interest.
-
>Name on one of the charts!
-
>'Hard Feather' from the date you assumed she was admitted last night!
-
>'Patient status: stable.'
-
>If not for your state, you would lel'd on that 'stable status on a horse hospital chart' pun.
-
>Right now you were furious though.
-
>How could this be, she was in the hospital right now and admitted last night, no less!
-
>Luna lied to you, she never evaporated her, she teleported her here!
-
>In disregard for her serious state of health, Nightmare started shouting something about traitors in your mind.
-
>O-on what room she is.
-
>108
-
>Good, you must let everybody know, that she can not be trusted a-an that she can't get close to Scoots.
-
"Blegh..rrr..Scoo..aaa!?"
-
>Fuck!
-
>You were switching off.
-
>Thanks a bunch Nightmare!
-
>Before you lost your consciousness, you heard this yellow mare shouting for help.
-
>Then, there was only darkness.
-
>....
-
>Bip...
-
>Bip... bip...
-
>"An..on...ymo..."
-
>Bip... bip... bip...
-
>"Mr.Anon...ymous..."
-
>Wha... What are those sounds?
-
>Bip..bip..
-
>Something is touching your shoulder?
-
>"Mr. Anonymous!"
-
>Grumpy cat mode activated.
-
>"L..Leave me.. alone.."
-
>You turn a little in something soft.
-
>You feel something is poking you, harder than the last time.
-
>Someone doesn't know, when to quit!
-
>"I'm sorry Mr. Anonymous.. but it's time for you to wake up! We'll need this bed for another patient soon."
-
>Hey, you know that voice!
-
>It's..um.. nurse's Redheart voice, yeah!
-
>You slowly open your eyes.
-
>You can clearly see, you're lying in the hospital bed.
-
>Again!
-
>Two more times and maybe you'll get a gift or something.
-
>There is mentioned nurse p0ne standing near you.
-
>She is switching off the medical equipment you're connected to.
-
>You put a hand on your face.
-
>You had a black hole in your memory right now.
-
"Wha.. What am I doing here again and why is this weird beeping machine connected to me?"
-
>Nurse Redheart told you it was a standard procedure after
-
fainting and as for that, you blacked out in the main reception apparently.
-
>She said you made quite a commotion taking your 'nap' like that in front of everypony there.
-
>Changing your clothes from hospital pajamas to your normal ones, you started to wonder why and how you end up in a state like this.
-
>Luckily for you there was 'someone' who knew this very well.
-
>>~"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! Don't you remember anything?! That traitor let this hideous creature live! MOVE FASTER!"~
-
>Then it hit you.
-
>Your memory returned with all of its ugliness.
-
>Your reaction was understandable...
-
"HOLY FUUUCK!"
-
>...but not for nurse Redheart.
-
>Surprised by your sudden outburst, she jumped away from you.
-
>"What's wrong, are you in pain?!"
-
>Always the professional, that white p0ne.
-
>You would probably go for this top-unf nurse booty, if not for your strange 'relationship' with a hot, powerful chick inside your head.
-
>Da-yum, tulpa intensifies.
-
>Right now though, you have more important things in mind!
-
>Putting your shirt on, with double speed, you turned to the confused mare.
-
"How long was I out, tell me quickly?!"
-
>Regardless of her bewilderment, she answered you as fast as possible.
-
>"T-two days, you've been unconscious for two days."
-
>Shieeet!
-
>How much of your 'energy' did Nightmare took that day?!
-
>No time to ask, probably Scoots was already discharged from the hospital.
-
>That leaves you only one option.
-
>You put your hands on nurse's Redheart 'shoulders'.
-
"Where is room 108?"
-
>She flinched a little, surprised by your touch.
-
>"I-It's at the end of this corridor, but that area is off-limits, you can't go there!"
-
>You didn't gave a single fuck about that.
-
>Letting go of her, you quickly opened the door and started to run with the triple speed of Kenyans.
-
>When you could almost see the end of the corridor, you heard something not far away behind you.
-
>"What are you doing Mr. Anonymous?! This is a restricted area!"
-
>You took a quick glance over your shoulder.
-
>That lovable white mare, with red cross tattoo on her ass, was chasing after you.
-
>With the double and a half speed of Kenyans!
-
>Confound those earth pony genes, they drive you to run faster.
-
>There was also another problem in your way to the room 108.
-
>One of the hospital security guards was running in your direction.
-
>He was a big dark grey earth pony stallion, sporting a short blue mane.
-
>You must bypass him somehow.
-
>Nightmare was already strengthening you with her combat powers, but you didn't want to hurt anyone.
-
>Maaayby except one little pony/gryffon cunt, that didn't want to die.
-
>Somehow you were happy that she was alive of course, but if she won't understand that she is not welcome in this whole country, you'll have to clarify this to her.
-
>Painfully!
-
>Security guard tried to block your way.
-
>"I'll have to ask you to stop, Sir! This is a..."
-
>Before you collapsed with him, you jumped.
-
>Doing a weird version of a butterfly twist, you landed beside the door, with 108 number on them.
-
>Tony Hawk got nothing on you!
-
>There was no time to dwell on 'your' acrobatic skills.
-
>Grey stallion was already turning in your direction, nurse Redheart closely behind him.
-
>You grabbed the door handle and opened up this bitch!
-
>You used so much force, that the door was plucked out of its hinges and collapsed on the floor not far away from you.
-
>You bolted into the room like a maniac.
-
>Heeeeere's Anon!
-
>The room was totally empty, there was only one bed inside and there was no one in it!
-
>Ffffuuuuu.jpg
-
>You heard some noise behind you.
-
>The two ponies that were chasing you, was in the room already.
-
>Security guard was coming right at you.
-
>"Okay, listen here 'pal', you will leave this room. We can do it the easy way or the hard way, choose wisely."
-
>Nurse Redheart stopped him.
-
>"Wait Strong Hoof, I assume that Mr. Anonymous here, got a good explanation for his rude behavior."
-
>She turned to you.
-
>"Have you?"
-
>You had looked around, then at her.
-
"What I can say, is that I promise I pay the hospital back for that door I destroyed and that window also."
-
>She looked confused.
-
>"What window? Do you really..."
-
>You didn't let her finish.
-
>You jumped through the closed window in that room.
-
>Falling down in a fountain of glass shards, you realised, it wasn't such a good plan after all.
-
>You haven't noticed earlier, but you just jumped off from the 4th floor.
-
>Fuck it.
-
>You felt that 'Your' power was almost at it's peak, that meant that you were like a fucking, living force of nature right now.
-
>You were not unlucky, to fall on the ground off such a high place.
-
>The fucking ground was unlucky that you'll land on it!
-
>You're going to wreck that bitch so mu...
-
>Welcome to the Nightmare airlines, please have safe flight!
-
>There was a set of mighty, black energy wings growing out of your back.
-
>You were levitating in place, at the height of the first floor.
-
>~"There is NO TIME for your stupid stunts! We must find this creature, before it can DESTROY more, than just your reputation at the hospital!"~
-
>Right, there was Scoots safety or even her life at stake here!
-
>Hard Feather probably also knew about your 'nightmarish secret' after you visited her that fateful night.
-
~"Is that tracking spell, which you placed on her last time, still active?"~
-
>She huffed angrily.
-
>~"Don't be naive, after that whole firework show during her transformation back to her true form, the spell was lifted!"~
-
>Alright, that would be all for this brilliant idea.
-
>Reagrdles, Moonie got something else, you could use.
-
>~"Because she touched me last time we met, I can detect the faint magic energy of that Scootaloo filly, if she isn't too far away"~
-
>Presumably, she would be her first target, after getting out of the hospital.
-
~"Lead the way, my queen!"~
-
>You felt a little happiness and giddiness emitting from her.
-
>~"LET THE HUNT BEGIN!"~
-
>You saw this magic golden line, which only you could see, extending before you.
-
>Last time you were tracking someone, it was the same, at the end of that line is the pony you are looking for.
-
>Flying in the direction, it was giving, you realised one thing.
-
>You knew exactly where it will take you.
-
~"Nightmare this will lead us to Twilight's castle, she probably saw Hard Feather in time and took refuge in there!"~
-
>That was some good news, you were waiting for.
-
>There was no way anyone would try to hurt that little, smart filly under the gaze of one of the princesses.
-
>You were betting your eyeballs, Nighty had other opinion about it.
-
>~"NO! This is a CONSPIRACY! They ponynapped that filly, because they KNEW she is in my good graces! They are setting a TRAP for us there!"~
-
>BAM right in the kisser!
-
>Of course you were right, you knew her so well.
-
>After all, life would suck major dick without you eyeballs.
-
>Closing on your target, you decided to talk some reason to her.
-
~"Nightmare, please! The world doesn't spin around you, especialy when everypony thinks you are gone!"~
-
>Now, what a conversation with a self-centered being would be, without a good old fashioned trolling.
-
~"Maybe Scoots, after seeing Hard Feather, came there to talk to 'US' and tell you what a big, fat liar you are for
-
telling her she won't see her again."~
-
>First you felt her fury rise at the top speed, but then she started to laugh mockingly at you.
-
>~"REALLY?! Then please, explain those two royal guards outside the entrance of the castle!"~
-
>Looking down, you spotted two, heavily armored ponies, standing in front of the building.
-
>They were sporting two different types of armor.
-
>Looking strong, white pegasus stallion was wearing Celestia's personal guards armour.
-
>While on the other hand, smaller grayish bat pony mare to his right, were clad in Luna's ceremonial plating.
-
>That meant there were at least two princesses inside, but knowing Twilight she would also be there.
-
>Why there were there, why now?
-
>Is this whole 'trap for a big catch' theory was true?!
-
>Golden line showed clearly that Scootaloo was inside, not moving at all.
-
~"Nightmare, cancel the tracking spell and prepare for anything. We simply must get inside this castle, even if it was only to ask Luna, why Hard Feather still draws breath."~
-
>She started to mock Luna, so you didn't focused on what she was saying.
-
>Instead, you landed before those two armored ponies.
-
>When they saw you, radiating with offensive power, looking like a living weapon, it was a natural reaction for them, to draw their weapons at you.
-
>Celestia's guard raised his spear at you, while Luna's held her lightening claws at the ready.
-
>You approached them slowly, your hand held high, to show them that you're not hostile.
-
>Big white p0ne spoke first.
-
>"What do you seek in here, creature?!"
-
>You extanded your hands a little in his direction.
-
"Easy there fella, I'm just trying to get to my room, I live here, that's all."
-
>He squinted his eyes dangerously.
-
>"Like I would believe, that something like you, would live in a place like this. Even, if it would be true, we have orders not to let anypony in. You know what? I'm going to follow that order to the letter."
-
>Watch out we have a badass over here!
-
>Bat pony mare spoke right after him.
-
>"He's talking sense you know. Leave while you still can."
-
>She started to circle around you, probably looking for an easy way to attack you, if that would be necessary.
-
>You had enough of that, there was no time for soft diplomacy here.
-
>You dropped your hands and your fake smile.
-
"You two really think, that it would be so easy to take me down?"
-
>White stallion responded, ready to pounce on you any second now.
-
>"Beat it chump, you've got no chances with us, not now, not ever!"
-
>You were fully covered by magical discharges at the moment.
-
>You looked at him, and grinned mischievously.
-
"REALLY, DO I!?"
-
>You didn't know it, but inside of the castle's famous main lounge, behind closed doors, was held some kind of an emergency meeting.
-
>As you predicted, Twilight was there, talking with others, two main rulers of the land included.
-
>They were all standing around, a big oval table, with some maps on it.
-
>She was about to say something, but the loud pounding outside the door interrupted her.
-
>Luna looking in its direction arched her brow.
-
>"Twilight, what is this ungodly racket in your castle?"
-
>Twilight had blushed and smiled silly.
-
>"S-sorry about that. It's probably Spike. I told him he has a day off, but that young dragon can be so..."
-
>She didn't get to finish that.
-
>Mentioned eariler door exploded in the rain of splinters!
-
>Surrounded by torned parts of the door, white stallion clad in gold armor, flew through the room.
-
>He collapsed with the big table, overturning it, with him, on the ground.
-
>Everybody looked at the unfolding scene, with their jaws on the floor.
-
>Half-conscious stallion slung himself over the table, with a grunt.
-
>"T..that's..why I-I o-opted for more sssecurity, i-it would b-be..."
-
>He's nocturnal counterpart collided hard with him, thrown with even grater force, through the broken down door.
-
>The two guards hit the ground uncouncious.
-
>Luna quickly pulled herself together.
-
>"WHO DARES TO TREAT OUR ROYAL GUARDS LIKE THIS?!"
-
>Pulling a broken spear out of your thigh, you walked into the main lounge.
-
>With the help of all the magic within you, the wound closed itself almost instantly.
-
>You looked with a menacing gaze at her.
-
"I think, I know the answer to that question princess Luna or should I call you liar Luna?!"
-
>You had quickly assessed the situation before you.
-
>Except for the two unconscious guards, you could see four more p0nes, standing around overturned table.
-
>There was of course three princesses and surprisingly silent Rainbow Dash looking at you, with wide eyes.
-
>Twilight looked no more surprised and knowing, what you were capable off when angered, she was also disturbed as all hell.
-
>As befits a master diplomat, princess Celestia was calm and composed.
-
>Judging by the glow on her horn, she was already casting some healing magic on those two guards, you used as a battering ram.
-
>You know she was smart enough, to not wake them up.
-
>If she would did that, the guards zeal would probably be a beginning of a new fight.
-
>This time, to assure your's and Nightmare's survival, you would have to go all out.
-
>That fact only, predicted a poor future for this little town.
-
>Unfortunately, 'sleepy' guards were not a guarantee of its survival.
-
>There was one, powerful alicorn, who you just plainly insulted in front of everyone, that was ideal for the job of starting a bloody brawl.
-
>She was in the middle of changing the color of her whole head, from dark blue to deep, angry red.
-
>"You... YOU CALL ME WHAT?! A LIAR?!"
-
>She started to walk slowly in your direction.
-
>You could clearly felt her charging, her combat magic.
-
>Princess Celestia, the only one in her right mind at the moment, moved from her place and extended one of her big, white wings, to stop her.
-
>"Luna, please be reasonable. I'm sure that Mr. Anonymous here, didn't meant to offend you so bluntly. Even, if that's the case, I'd like to hear his reasoning behind it, if you let him of course."
-
>Some of Nightmares animosity toward angry monarch, must had rub on you, because you didn't go for the explanation immediately.
-
"You heard it quite well. I knew you were too young, for a hearing loss problems!"
-
>Dark blue alicorn's head looked like a beetroot right now.
-
>My_sides.jpg
-
>Due to the still going 'surprise paralysis' of the other two occupants of the main lounge, princess Celestia had no other choice, but to act as an adult here.
-
>She looked at you with an serious expression.
-
>"Mr. Anonymous, stop making your position worse. Please, give us your reason, behind that most unwelcome behavior."
-
>You clenched your teeth, and put your lower jaw up front, like some bar brawler.
-
"You really want to hear THE REASON, why I'm acting like this, well..."
-
>With the corner of your eye, you saw something was covering behind Celestia.
-
>Because she moved, to stop Luna, you could saw it.
-
>It was a light beige pony mare, with a green mane.
-
>Fucking Hard Feather was looking at you, with a scared expression!
-
>In a blink of an eye, you pointed your finger at her.
-
"SHE IS THE FUCKING REASON! How could you speak to her, and listen to her LIES?!"
-
>You start advancing at a paralysed in fear, beige p0ne.
-
"You won't hurt anyone again, when I'm finished with you! I CAN PROMISE YOU THIS!"
-
>Nobody would stand in your way!
-
>Not before you teach that cumstain a lesson, she never forgets.
-
>Princess Celestia acted without delay.
-
>"Subdue him, don't let him near her!"
-
>Almost instantly, you felt as if the whole castle collapsed on your back.
-
>You were pinned down, breathless, to the floor.
-
>Looking down, you saw there was a mix of Celestia's and Luna's strong magic auras, embracing your chest and back, pushing you down into the ground.
-
>There was also a purple magic aura on you.
-
>Twilight, 'Et tu, Brute?'
-
>Their combined power, was almost enough to squeeze the blood out of you.
-
>Time to look for a fuck to give.
-
>There was none to be found.
-
>Good.
-
~"Nighty, I know for sure that after two days rest, your power is greater than ever before. Pretty please, STOP SLACKING OFF!"~
-
>You could taste her determination at the tip of your tongue.
-
>~"I'm slacking off? YOU DARE TO TELL ME, THAT I'M SLACKING OFF!"~
-
>You felt her, powering you up, like there was no tomorrow.
-
>Once again, she was giving her 110%, just like when 'you' were rescuing Scoots.
-
>Well, looking at it from another angle, you were doing that right now too, sort of.
-
>Your eyes burned with onyx energy, your whole body embedded thick with magical discharges of the same type.
-
>Slowly you were able to reach out with your hand.
-
>There was your good friends, black and blue power claws, at the end of it.
-
>You stick them into the floor, destroying the planks, that was already cracking up, under your 'heavy' body.
-
>Every move had cost you a fuckload of painful effort.
-
>You didn't gave a shit, crawling you were moving forward.
-
>Twilight started shouting to dumbfounded cyan, rainbow maned pony.
-
>"RAINBOW a little help with him, would be much appreciated!"
-
>Shaking her head, cyan p0ne came out of her daze and flew in your direction.
-
>She landed beside your face.
-
>"A-Anon stop! Don't you understand?! I really don't want to hurt you, for your own good!"
-
>Standing on her back legs, she raised one of her front hooves, to punch you.
-
>It trembled like mad.
-
>She looked like she was making one of the toughest decisions in her life.
-
>Loyalty intensifies.
-
>You could work with that.
-
"*Huff* NO! You're the one that *ugh* don't understand anything!"
-
>She raised her hoof higher.
-
>"Enlighten me then, you got three seconds. After that I'm switching off your lights!"
-
>Heh, like she could do something to you with that hoof.
-
>At the moment you were withstanding a force, that could crash a car, and she was threatening you with that marshmallow limb of hers?!
-
>Regardless, you could use a distraction.
-
"THIS "Huff* THIS MARE *ugh* HURT SCOOTS! *Huff* She almost KILLED her!"
-
>Her hoof dropped, her pupils like pinpricks.
-
>She slowly turned her head in Hard Feather's direction.
-
>"Motherbucke..."
-
>In a blink of an eye, 'The Dash' burst forward at the green maned mare.
-
>She was stopped by the purple magic that embraced her tail.
-
>"What are you doing Rainbow?! You were supposed to help us!"
-
>Rainbow struggled with her magic hard.
-
>"Let me at her Twilight! I can't believe, I was standing in one room with that filly abuser!"
-
>Twilight must had to concentrate even more to contain her.
-
>That almost lifted her magic, off you.
-
>You didn't listen to their arguing.
-
>With Twilight power out of the picture, you could start to walk on your knees.
-
>You were moving a little faster now, leaving the trail of holes and cracked wooden panels on the floor.
-
>Celestia seeing your determination, spoke to you one more time.
-
>"Mr. Anonymous, Anon, please calm down. We can talk about everything peacefully!"
-
>You were not listening.
-
>There was a ringing sound in your ears, from the effort you were making.
-
>Aside from that fact, you were only focused on getting your lethal ass to that beige cunt.
-
>One hand, after another.
-
>Luna was not happy to see that.
-
>"He is not listening sister! I say let's give him our best!"
-
>Celestia looked at you sadly.
-
>"I'm sorry, you gave us no choice in that matter. Alright Luna let us do this, but remember, lift your magic off him, as soon as he lose consciousness!"
-
>The floor started to shake.
-
>You took a look at the two royal p0nes.
-
>Their eyes were oozing with bright power.
-
>There was a lot of magical discharges around them.
-
>You felt thier power all over your body know.
-
>Even on your head.
-
>You were thrust into the floor again.
-
>Hard!
-
>Your face broke the wooden panel before it.
-
"UGH!"
-
>You couldn't move.
-
>They were squezzing the life out of you!
-
>Not on your watch!
-
~"N-Nightmre!...I..I don't give a fuck about my BODY! U-use my... my stamina or wathever you want! L.. Le.. LET'S SHOW THEM, HOW TEAM NIGHTMARE WORKS!~
-
>You proud fool, you.
-
>You felt her reaching for your 'power' reserves.
-
>~"AS YOU WISH!"~
-
>You had impression that the whole place was trembling now!
-
>If someone was standing next to you right now, your power aura would probably push the air out of his or hers lungs.
-
>You slowly started to stand up.
-
"AAAARRRGGGGHHHH!"
-
>I wasn't painless or effortless, but you need to push yourself, just a little MORE!
-
>The windows in the main lounge fall out of their frames.
-
>Still screaming like crazy, you took a quick look at princess Celestia.
-
>Her eyes were closed, there was a small trickle of sweat, running down her forehead.
-
>Holy fuck, one of the most powerful beings, was straining to keep you in place!
-
>It was barely visible, so probably it wasn't such a great effort for her, but still!
-
>This and the fact that Nightmare was doing so much, using your body's stamina mixed with her magic, probably meant she was close to her full power.
-
>Truthfully, you were a little frightened by that.
-
>Regardless, encompassed in three different magic fields, you started to walk forward.
-
>Luna, straining more than Celestia, saw that holding you in place was not an option anymore.
-
>"S-Sister... h-he's still MOVING!"
-
>Twilight was too busy with Rainbow Dash.
-
>Damn, she was such a hothead!
-
>You took another step toward Hard Feather that looked around in panic, for a place to run.
-
>Why was she so scared?
-
>That night when you um.. 'fought' with her, she had more courage than this.
-
>You wasn't given any time, to think more about this.
-
>The main ruler of the land had enough of your 'tantrum'.
-
>"THAT IS ENOUGH! STOP AND LISTEN OR THERE WILL BE CONSEQUENCES!"
-
>Royal Canterlot voice is strong within this one!
-
>Even her own sister looked surprised with its power.
-
>Twilight and Rainbow stopped talking... and moving.
-
>That would be a good idea for you also, but in your stupor you took another step.
-
>Really, fuck you leg!
-
>That 'straw' broke the camel's back.
-
>Big, white alicorn was beside you in a second!
-
>Still being hold down by other's magic, you had no chance to react.
-
>Celestia was faster than a snake on energy drink!
-
>She had hit your midsection with her powerful white wing.
-
>You was almost wrapped around it!
-
>Even with your top level durableness, you felt that blow clearly.
-
>It was enough to launch you in the air.
-
>You collided with the wall on the other side of the room.
-
>There was a taste of blood in your mouth for a second there.
-
>At least the magic that was holding you in place was lifted by that blow.
-
>After falling on the ground, you quickly got back up.
-
>Celestia was already beside you.
-
>You tried to grab her.
-
>She bowed down.
-
>Using her horn, on your knees, she tripped you down with a strong slash.
-
>You fall on your hands.
-
>Before you could do anything, you felt her armored hoof on your head.
-
>She pinned you down to the floor, wood cracking beneath your cheek.
-
>She was even stronger than you anticipated!
-
>You grabbed the leg she was holding you down.
-
>Nightmare send a powerful electric charge through your hand.
-
>She jumped away from you.
-
>It was clear she felt that, because she was standing now, on three other hooves, holding the one you shocked in the air.
-
>You crouched, ready to pounce at her in any moment.
-
>Except that, you didn't move.
-
>Considering, you really started to feel the effects of Nightmare draining your strength, it was a smart way to act.
-
>Celestia's trained eye saw it too.
-
>With a forceful gaze, she tried to calm you one last time.
-
"Anonymous! Cease this behavior at once! I promised that mare, that she will be safe in here. I will have to stop restraining myself, if you won't control yourself!"
-
>You knew she was suppressing her power... so were you.
-
>The vision of exploding Ponyville, was still fresh in your mind.
-
>Also, you knew this was your final warning, if you won't stop, there is going to be a fuckton of bloody mayhem ahead of you.
-
>You decided to heed this last call of reason and listen to what they have to say about this whole farce.
-
>For a time of course.
-
>Slowly standing up, you addressed your mind's tenant.
-
~"Nightmare stop what you're doing. I intend to hear their reasoning behind this all. Even if it's not for that, some talking could be useful, to regenerate our strength a little"~
-
>You felt she listend to you.
-
>Your fatigue was not increasing anymore and the whole room stopped trembling.
-
>~"I see. Preapare for thier LIES! It can be so thick, that even I could have problems in reading them!"
-
>Right, you got your private lie detector in your head.
-
>This gonna be gud.
-
>You expanded your hands in a peaceful gesture.
-
"Alright, your highness, I'll bite. Please bear in mind though, that if I won't like what I'm going to hear, we will resume our little dance."
-
>Luna was in your face, in a second.
-
>"WHAT A NERVE! How could one speak to his ruler in that tone! Instead of that mutiny, YOU should be kissing her hooves, for what she has done to you!"
-
>Really, she was more concerned with what you told Celestia, than the fact, you had used offensive magic on her?!
-
>What is she now, a warrior princess, which doesn't give a shit if you attack her, but if one insult leaves your mouth, there is a whole world of pain waiting for you?
-
>Or maaaybe she was still upset about you, calling her a 'deaf liar' and was trying to get on your nerves, any way she could.
-
>You looked at her with dangerously squinted eyes.
-
"Sorry there princess, but there will be NO mercy for a dirty, children tormentor."
-
>Twilight, still holding Rainbow Dash in place, turned to you.
-
>"Anon and you Rainbow, please listen to what princess Celestia wants to tell you!"
-
>Cyan p0ne looked at you.
-
>"Aaalright, if Anon can keep his cool for a little while, I can too. Also, like he said, this better be good!"
-
>Mentioned white alicorn sighted, happy with yours and Rainbow's decision.
-
>"Judging by what drives the both of you the most, I think you're going to be pleased with what I'm going to say. First, however, let's begin with a little introductions."
-
>She turned to Hard Feather, who looked like she saw the vision of her death.
-
>"Can you please come by my side and introduce yourself to us?"
-
>Shaking like a leaf, beige mare started to walk in Celestia's direction.
-
>"O-Of c-course my p-princess."
-
>Yeah, right, 'your' princess.
-
>What was Celestia playing in, is she mocking you?!
-
>You were about to find out, because green maned p0ne reached her destination, by her side.
-
>"I...I-I'm Hard Feather a..and I work a-at the o-orphanage. N..Nice to m-meet you."
-
>You clanched your fists, you knew better than anyone who she was.
-
>You can say, you came to know her through and through.
-
>You answered with a sneer.
-
"Yeeaah, don't you remember, we know each other veeery weeell."
-
>Rainbow didn't say anything, she just crossed her hooves on her chest.
-
>Main ruler of the land, had something to say about your statement.
-
>"No, to be clear, you've just met for the first time."
-
>She looked at Hard Feather.
-
>"Can you please, tell us why, Miss Feather?"
-
>Beige mare was looking at the ground.
-
>"I-I wa-was ponynaped b-by some band o-of griffons! T-they T-TORTURED ME AND SAID I NEVER GOING TO SEE HOME AGAIN!"
-
>Everybody say whhhhaaaaat!?
-
>She started to cry.
-
>Celestia quickly wraped her wing around her, hugging her tightly.
-
>Luna came to the front.
-
>"You see Anonymous, she was gone from this town, long before you even came here. The griffon that you... disposed off, used her blood to replace her. She had such an impact on her charge, that nopony reported her sudden change in behavior. She quickly thought them to belive, that an orphan's word against its caretaker, meant nothing to others."
-
>She looked with sad expression on Hard Feather.
-
>"That fateful night we've met, after my depart, I searched the dream world thoroughly. I was looking for a dream of a green maned mare, that had anything in it, that I knew about her. Ponyville, orphanage, children, griffons and so on. I used all my power, if she was somehow alive, I just had to find her."
-
>She turned back to you again.
-
>"When I found her dream, I visited the dreams of sleepers, which were closest to her. I tricked their minds to tell me, where the were keeping her. She was held prisoner in an abandoned dungeon, deep in the Griffon Kingdom mountains near Equestria's borders."
-
>Rainbow asked before you could say anything.
-
>"What happened to those stupid feather-brains, that was keeping her locked up?"
-
>Twilight answered to that question.
-
>"There were only three of them. One wasn't sleeping, so when princess Luna teleported on their positions, he woke up the other two. Surprisingly, they were in possession of powerful magic enchanted artifacts called 'the return stone'. When they saw, who they were dealing with, they broke the stones against their bodies. That released the magic fused to the stones and teleported them in different place, that was established in advance."
-
>You arched your brow.
-
>Yeah, magic stones and what else?!
-
>Twilight must have saw that disbelief in your eyes, because she said something more.
-
>"Beyond similar to what pegasi have, griffons don't have any other magic of their own. To
-
compensate for it, they 'hijack' any magic enchanted items, artifacts, scrolls and potions they
-
could put their claws on. The most intelligent of them are even capable of creating some of those
-
things..."
-
>Luna interrupted that lecture.
-
>"As you can clearly see now. We don't have any knowledge, about why they ponynaped her and replaced her, with one of their own. I'm not even sure, if they have some connection to the griffon crown, or are just a good organised band of misfits."
-
>She came closer.
-
>"What really counts, is that you have a whole world of apologising TO DO!"
-
>You won't say you were not impressed in that turning of events, but before you could say or do anything you had to confirm something.
-
~"Nightmare, are everything, what we heard till now, true?"~
-
>She was silent for a while, you had a feeling she didn't liked what she had to say.
-
>~"Yes. Everything was true. I can even detect a faint earth pony magic, from that mare. What is standing before us, is not the same creature we destroyed."~
-
>Now.
-
>Now you were feeling like...
-
>No, you were an super, ultra, mega, giga moron!
-
>You bolted in here, like an angry god of vengeance!
-
>Started to fling accusations and insult everyone!
-
>Then threw an top level autistic power tantrum, when they didn't let you go on a private vendetta against truly innocent, scared mare!
-
>You started to open and close your mouth like a fish out of water.
-
"I..I..I.."
-
>Smooth man, so smooth!
-
>Before you could made yourself look like a bigger fucktard, someone interrupted you.
-
>"H-Hey what's going on here?"
-
>At the corridor leading to the guest rooms stood a yawning Scootaloo.
-
>You quickly assumed she didn't knew about your hospitalisation and was looking for you in your room.
-
>She probably fell asleep during her search and woke up just now.
-
>That's why she wasn't moving, when you were looking for her.
-
>After wiping her eyes with her hoof, she started moving to join your little gathering.
-
>Suddenly she stopped in place!
-
>She was experiencing a 'deer in headlights' syndrome!
-
>After tracing her line of sight, you knew what happened.
-
>She knew exactly, what or rather who was under Celestia's wing and that she saw her too.
-
>Teary eyed Hard Feather had start to talk to her.
-
>"S-Scootaloo? Wha... what are you doing here? No mater, l-look I'm back and everything is going to b-be alright."
-
>Little filly started to stutter.
-
>"I-I-I..."
-
>It was a replay of your own behavior just now, but driven by the different emotions.
-
>Princess Celestia extended her other wing in Scoots direction.
-
>"Please, come here little one. After all, there is always room for one more, brave filly under my wing."
-
>Scoots looked again at 'everypony' gathered in the main lounge.
-
>Then again only at a beige mare, which was also extending her hooves invitingly.
-
>Her reaction surprised everyone, especially Celestia.
-
>"B-b-BUCK YOU!"
-
>She circled the main lounge around, and grabbed your leg.
-
>She was hugging it, like if she was drowning and it was the only rescue in sight.
-
>Hard Feather was persistent.
-
>She even came out from under white alicorn's wing and started to walk in your direction.
-
>"S-Scootaloo, please. I-it's me, the real me. W-we can go back t-to orphanage and everything will be a-alright."
-
>Scoots hugged your leg stronger.
-
>"N..N-n.."
-
>Fuck!
-
>You must do something, or she will brake your leg!
-
>You knew that this mare was 'somepony' else, but you couldn't watch at her near Scoots.
-
>She wore the "face" of her worst nightmare and from now on that little, lively filly will have to watch it every day at the orphanage?!
-
>There was no other way, you had to make some kind of a decision quickly.
