> The (Un)necessary Evil > by DarkLord of Fire > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Prologue > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Date-(earth date) 9/12/23 Location- Comic-con Time- afternoon. Comic con was in full swing, I have been walking around for a full hour looking at each stall that I can find. There where Kingdom Hearts stalls, Halo, even Doctor Who at one point, but the one that caught my eye, was one near the back and by itself. After making it look like I was just walking by, I stopped and decided that it was time to see what he had for sale. The owner of the stall was talking with a person that looked like he was from final fantasy, who ever it was, had a red cloak around him. While they where talking I decided to look at what he had for sale, as I looked on at what he had, somethings stuck out to me, a Kingdom Key for $120 it even looked like it was made out of real medal, a suit of armor from halo(deep red) that had omega printed on it (black) with a V.6 spray painted on it for $350, a real looking diamond pickaxe from Minecraft $250, the Terrablade from Terraria $200, and a Lego create with the words, creative create on it $450. As I looked them over and went for my wallet, I saw another thing I added to the list of wanted items, a iPhone 8, and the Pipboy case from fallout 4 for said iPhone $450. I mentally screamed for joy for the hall I had in front of me. Everything that I had on my wish list was in front of me and I had the money to buy all of it. Now here's the thing, three years ago, I won the jackpot at Vegas and now it was time to spend the 2.3 million I had lying around. As I dug for the right amount of money, a funny thought came to me, ‘here, buy yourself a new hat.’ Spy, got to love him. Sometimes I love having this amount of money on me. I got out the $1,820 and waited to buy my selected items, I saw another thing I would like it was a cloak like the final fantasy guy was waring, it was worth $80, sold. As the owner finished talking to the guy he turned around and walked over to me. “Now what can I get you, my dear friend.” ‘This dude had the same voice as Iroh from avatar.’ “I want to buy the Kingdom key, the Halo armor, the diamond pickaxe, the Terrablade, the creative create of Legos, the Pipboy case with the iPhone 8, and finally the deep red cloak.” “That is a lot of items, my dear friend, but I think you can have all of them, I just hope you have the right amount of money to buy all this.” “Does 2.3 million sound like I have enough?” ‘I swear his face went from shock to a happy grin.’ “Yes, that sounds like you have a good amount of money, but may I ask how you got it?” “Sure, so I was at Vegas, hitting the tables, here and there and I find a table with a poker game going on. I got in the game and I won. I had won, but that was not the sweet thing, not even moments later, I had won the jackpot, and when I left Vegas, I had a little over a million in my back pocket. When I got back home, I started to invest it in stocks (manly porn) and I started to get big bucks, it is still growing, so I have a lot to spend.” “Well with this amount of money, can I offer you anything else?” “Maybe later down the road, my good friend, if I can talk to you, later that is, my list may start to grow again in due time.” “What do you mean, if you could talk to me later?” “Well for one, I know I will be leaving our dimension, and entering a different dimension, so yeah, I need a way to talk to you, maybe i will buy some more stuff.” “How do you know this?” he said with an angered look on his face. “Well I have read enough Fan-fictions about you to know, who you are, what your doing and what your end game is, but right now, I don’t care. We both know that this planet is doomed now, no thanks to us, I just want off this crazy train.” 'Not to mention the reports we have on you' “So you can understand the bigger picture, then the rest of your race?” “Yes I can, it helps when you see the world around you differently.” “So, you rather go live with the ponies of equestria, then your own race?” “I am not like most of us, I am more peaceful then others, but push me around enough and I will fight back. I don’t mind walking a different road then everyone else. Like I already have.” “Then that must be one of your strong points. Alright, I will give you my phone number, so you can call me.” “Before I forget, do you have a way for me to get WiFi while I’m in Equestria? I don’t want to have to deal with no internet while I’m there. Seeing that I have my computer with me its going to need a use somewhere.” “Yes I do, but instead of charging you, I will throw it in with everything you have bought for free.” “Sweet, that will come in handy for showing the girls what our world is like.” ‘not to mention the porn that will help to keep me sane.’ “Alright, now do you want to stay humanoid or do you want to become a pony?” “Human, I prefer it over a pony.” “Ok now the time to send you too.” “I would say right after they defeat Nightmare Moon.” “That can be done but why at that time?” “It would be easier to win the friendship of the mane 6 at that point, then later down the road and so I can stay on the story, episode after episode, and plus seeing that I have internet I can keep up on future episodes.” “I guess I can see your point, well alright, now any other questions?” “1, will I be in creative mode in Minecraft and is there modpacks to use with it? 2, the Lego creative create does it mean unlimited Lego’s? 3, Keyblade key chains can I get a box of different key chains, and how do I summon it? 4, can I take the halo armor on and off or am I stuck with it on forever?” “1 yes, you will be able switch it on and off using the pipboy, and yes there are modpacks manly technic and feed the beast. 2, it does mean unlimited Lego’s just ask for the set or size of the brick or what it is and it will come out. 3, yes I will throw it in with your order, and to summon it, just think of it and it will come to you. 4, it can be equipped and unequipped using your Pipboy.” “Ok, sweet, thank you so much.” “Your welcome, my dear lad.” “Now get ready lad your soon going to be on your way, and before I forget, everything you bought will be in your Pipboy. Just click the right button and your good to go, best of luck and enjoy your new life.” “I will, thank you again.” “Goodbye for now lad.” “Goodbye.” That was the last word out of my mouth before the darkness overtook me. As I floated through the void a voice in the back of my head spoke up. ‘so many things to do, so little time, take your time, your adventure awaits...’ As the light fills my eyes, I hear the sound of a explosion and a scream of defeat. Nightmare moon must of just got hit with the F.C.(friendship cannon). Well time to make my appearance I guess. End Entry. > Chapter 1 When it begins > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- As the light fills my eyes, I hear the sound of a explosion and a scream of defeat. Nightmare moon must of just got hit with the F.C.(friendship cannon). Well time to make my appearance I guess. As the smoke clears I can see that luna was in front of me on the ground, out cold. I can hear the mane six coming to as well but I choose to ignore them and check luna and see if there is anything around me. I can hear a wemper from the mane six(futtershy I think) after making sure nothing was wrong with luna I decided to finally speak up. “I do hope you know I can hear you speaking over there.” “And just who or what are you.” rainbow said looking like she was going to attack me. “I am a human, and my name is Zack, use it the next time you talk to me.” I said with a sneer with some anger in my eyes. As they began to talk among themselves again, miss sun butt herself shows up, Celestia. As she walked up and finally saw me, she seemed cautioned towards me. “Greetings Celestia, it’s nice to meet you, I just wish it had not started on the wrong foot.” I said, turning towards the mane six for a few seconds, I looked down at luna and noticed that luna was beginning to stir by my foot. As I bent down, I heard the mane six start yelling at me. I ignore them once more as I start helping luna up, she shakes for a few seconds, before standing up fully. As I look on at her, I feel my arm shake for a second. As I look down I can see the Pipboy on my left arm, as I bring it up I can see the power switch on the side. I flip it and it turns on with the Apple logo, instead of the Pipboy mascot. When it boots up fully, I flip it to the inventory. It was full of everything that I had bought. The key chain case was in there with the Terrablade, the Halo armor, the Lego create, the Minecraft pickaxe, and the deep red cloak. I decided to put on the halo armor on without the helmet, but instead, I equip the cloak and pull the hood down so my face was showing. As I looked down at the armor that was on me, I could see that the armor did closely mimic the master chef armor, but the difference was in the helmet. It looked like agent Maine's, from red vs blue. Except it had a guard covering the top of the helmet, cutting off the top of the visor. As I look on at the mane six they were shaking a little at me. Scared for sure, when I looked at Celestia and Luna they where cautioned to me. ‘it be best if I keep the blade hidden for now’ Fate seemed to have a different idea for us, as a manticore came out of the shadows of the castle and had a hungry look in his eyes. ‘Best take this thing out, before any blood shed happens’ summoning the terrablade to my hand. As it jumps towards the mane six, I jump at it and swing down towards it, as the ghost blade jumps from it and hits the beast in the chest, launching it away for the six and into a wall. As I got in front of them I decided it was time not to fuck round and end it. As I began to pull magic into the blade it began to glow a deep sickly green, and began to pulse in my hand. As it got up, it roared at me. I unleashed the energy right at it, in the form of a even larger blade that cut the beast in two. The ghost blade was hot enough to cauterize the wound. As it died, I felt the effect of the energy drain hit me. As I sat down, (more like fell right on my ass,) I lifted my left arm to look at the Pipboy, I saw it was showing a low energy bar. ‘Must be my energy bar, so it must be able to track magic energy I guess...’ "God, i am to old for this shit" I Said aloud. Thats when it hit me, i didn't feel old, i felt young. That was odd, i was nearing my 75 birthday before i was sent here. hmm, guess i need to check myself over when i get a moment. I used the blade as a cane to help get me back on my feet, harder said then done. Once I was up, I looked at them and said “sorry that you had to see that, but I can’t have any of you dying even though we have just met.” There faces where filled with the same kind of look of fear and respect. Rainbow most of all had more fear then anyone else. Futtershy was no where to be found, until I heard her speak behind me. “why?” “why?" I said slowy turning to her. "Simple, if I had not done what I have done, you would be dead and I would hate myself for it, for not doing something when i should have. I looked into his eyes and all I saw was the hunger and the trust for death. And turst me on this one sometimes mercy does come back to bite you, i know that from experience.” As I looked at her finally, I can see the tears in her eyes as I look down at her. As I walk over to her I bend down to her level in pull her into a hug. As I stand and walk back to her friends with her still in my arms I said “Some times in life, we must become the necessary evil, to destroy evil.” “Everything is not just cupcakes and ice cream, there are evils all around you, you just need to know when to fight and when to fold, and I am a warrior to my core. And no one, I mean NO ONE is going to die on my watch, and that I still am on my feet, I will keep on fighting to protect those I care for, and for those who can not defend themselves. It's my duty to protect those that need protection.” End entry > chapter 2 The new boy and builder > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- “Everything is not just cupcakes and ice cream, there are evils all around you, you just need to know when to fight and when to fold, and I am a warrior to my core. And no one, I mean NO ONE is going to die on my watch, and that I still am on my feet, I will keep on fighting to protect those I care for, and for those who can not defend themselves. It's my duty to protect those that need protection.” Here I am, walking with futtershy in my arms, sound asleep as we walk though the Everfree back to ponyville. The rest of the mane six where behide me, talking to themselves, Celestia and Luna were walking next me, with Luna on my right and Celestia on my left. I would catch there eyes as the looked up at me at some points as we walked. Flutters would move every once and a while in my arms. I looked down at her and thought. ‘maybe the armor is not helping..’ It must not be easy to deal with metal against you. So, what to do? I guess I should take it off for now. As I reach for the Pipboy I remember that flutters is in the way. “Celestia, would you be a dear and lift flutters up so I can get this armor off?” “Sure, I don’t think she Is enjoying it against her that much.” As Celestia lifted flutters up in her magic, I flip my left arm up and look at the Pipboy, I flip it over to armor and unequipped it. As my shirt and pants reappeared I looked down at them, my jeans (black to faded gray) where a little worn here and there, with a few old stains on them, manly rust. My shirt was a white shirt with the S.O.A(sons of anarchy) on the back. My jacket black jacket had the scream eagle on it. As I looked back I remembered my beard was starting to grow a little larger and was soon going to need a trim. As I give it a quick rub out of pure thought I looked back to Celestia and nodded, she understood and slowly lowered flutters down into my hands. As I pulled her into my arms and got her in a spot that was easy for me to carry her she readjusted and hummed as she found her new spot even better. That earned a grin from me. Now by standers I was not a well built guy, due to my age, but know I had muscles again, but they where not the same size they where when I was in service. I could bench press 250 pounds back then, but now that I looked my arms over again my muscles where smaller than they where back then. i could maybe do 150 pounds now, but the longer I looked at them the more I noticed, that flutter's didn't weigh that much. Maybe I have some earth pony magic flowing into me. I think, because I had no magic on earth, and that lack of it here in there world is trying to fill me, I think to level me out so I’m not a void. Thoughts for a later time. Great now I’m buff, just what I needed. Like that would go along with my deep blue eyes, short nose, and lose cheek bones. Not to mention my eyebrows that where as bad as the twelfth doctor. Bushy and yet everywhere. Not forgetting the scar that ran down my left eye. I guess I still will have to live with that one. 'I only found out how i look again after looking in to a small pond as we pasted it' As we neared the edge of the Everfree, i saw movement to my right. With a quick look, I saw it was Zacora and she was watching me with interest. I winked at her and kept moving, when they questioned me about it, I said I saw something and I got something in my eye and had to blink my right eye to get rid of it. As we walked into the clear sky's, I saw flutters cabin to my right, and ponyville ahead. “Not to be rude or anything, but they will flip complete shit if I walk in town without warning.” “How do you know that?” asked applejack “Gut feeling.” i said to her rolling my eyes. “I concur, the ponies of ponyville will freakout if you were to show up without giving them a warning.” “Well, you could also use it as a way to show your ponies that your sister is back.” I said back to her with a cheshire grin. “True.” she said giving her own grin in return. As celestia started talking to the mane five, I started walking flutters to her home, after dealing with the fucking rabbit, I set her down in her bed and tucked her in for the rest of her nap. God she looks so cute sound asleep. For a second she reminded me of my wife but i shook that thought out of my head. As I walk back out side of her house with ‘angel’ kicking me the whole way, I started after the mane five as they left to head back in town. Luna and Celestia were telling the ponies that I was not a threat and that I was to be treated with respect, ect. As i walked up and onto the stage one thought bounced into my mind, ‘my diet’. “Greeting ponies of ponyville, as you may see, I am nothing like yourself, yet we may share some traits. My kind and your kind share one thing, to be kind, but in our world it is not all just rainbows and ice cream, no in my world there is constant chaos. If you need something to visualize, then look to the everfree, for it and my world share the same thing. Chaos not even a hint of order yet, here I am, the tamer of chaos.” “Now as a fare warning, if you do see me fishing, then it is best to not approach, unless you can handle the sight of meat being cooked. On my world we are known as humans and we eat both meat and greens. Now if you are thinking your on the menu, then you are thinking wrong, we don’t eat equines, they have been with us for almost as long as dogs have been our best friends. We only eat meat that comes from cows, pigs, chickens, and fish.” “And seeing that cows are sentient, I will have to cross them off the list... as well as pigs. Now if your worried about me, then confront me about it and I will see what I can do about it, now before I forget, Celestia do you know of any spots of land that are for sale near by?” “Mayor mare are there any spots near by for sale?” “There is one for sale to the east of town just a few feet down the road, it is about 500 square feet by 500 square feet, will that do for you?” “Yes that will do perfectly, if I need to, I will build underground... 'if I need to' Now if any questions are needed, Im heading to where I’m going to start building” I looked down at the Pipboy, flipped on creative mode and took off in flight to the land, I know their jaws must be on the floor right now, but this is so worth it. As I came up on the spot I saw it was alright, but I would need to terraform it a bit, before I start building anything. I flipped to the blocks section of the Pipboy I choose a block of oak wood and planks and set to work. The first floor was done when the mane 5 and the princesses showed up and I started working the ground around the house, as I hit a stone with my bare fist and started to flatten the ground they started talking to me as I worked. “How in mothers name are you doing that?” Celestia asked “A little power I have, nothing bad, it just makes me a god of creation and a demigod, I have ‘powers’, but they will stay, my secrets. Now, I need to build a mineshaft, and where to build it?” I said beginning to slip into my thoughts. As I began to float again, I floated over to my house and landed at my front door, I walked in side and looked around. The space in there was 76 feet by 70 feet, so penalty of room to work with. I made my way to the far right and started to dig in the corner and started a set of stairs going down stairs. I had to empty out the room of the dirt and stone and replace the walls with stone bricks. I paused in thought looking at my work. It was about 75 feet by 60 feet space to do as I please. I flipped up the pipboy again, I got a couch and some chairs and started to fill the house with them. Upstairs I put two couches and a chair and I went down stairs and put a chair down there as well. I look down at the pipboy again and found a tap for tinkers constants. I grabbed the infhammer and went back down stairs I looked at the 60 foot wall and started to make the mine shaft. I went 40 blocks in before turning back and returning to the opening. I set up a door and a small minecart track to use later. As I went under the project-red lights I grabbed some red wire as well and set to work. Soon the house was wired up and with a flip of the lever, I had light. The girls where surprised and shocked to see what I could do. As I sat back in my chair another thought came to me. ‘I should stay in this mode for a while...’ I lifted the pipboy up once more and began to look though the taps I had. He said I had almost any mod I would need. I went into the project E tap and grabbed the emc generators and condenser, I went down stairs and set it up. Now I can make anything I need, sweet. Now the next big question, what to do? Maybe build a tower of pimps? No I will build a tower, a lookout tower. I as flipped though the blocks again, I grabbed the stone bricks and oak planks and I set to work building it all the way till I was 250 feet in the air. As I began to set the layout of the top of the base, I found it was easy to almost fall off, so I had to use some fence posts to keep it safe. As I work I started to let my mind wonder off to where ever it goes. ‘I wonder, do I have inventories for both minecraft and terraria or not? Best call the merchant he should be able to help.’ I stop myself and look down at the pipboy, I flip up the phone app and give his cell a call. He answers after the third ring. “Hello?” he said “Hello, this is zack calling, I’m stuck at the moment, do I have inventories for minecraft and terraria and how do I open them?” “Oh that’s easy, you play pc right? Just think your using a keyboard and hit the letter you have inventories bound to.” “Thank you, how has earth been?” “Chaos.” he said, with a flat tone. “Welp, their lives are not mine to be around anymore, so what is my bank amount now?” “3.5 million, and before you ask, there was a porn boom and now the stocks have gone up by 150%.” “Wow, that's a lot of money, thanks for keeping an eye on it for me, take out a thousand for yourself, for helping me out.” “Ok I will, is there anything you would like to buy?” “Not right now, but give me a week and I may have something else to buy.” “Ok, good bye then, my good lad, keep up the work” “You know I will, later.” ‘He is so kind, but one hell of a deal man’ As I look down and made a gesture that I was using a keyboard, a hologram of a keyboard came up. It showed every key, even the numpad. I hit escape and my terraria inventory comes up, like it would on the game, but this was in hologram form. It was about a foot above the keyboard I was using. I press it again, and it goes away. I hit the Q key and my minecraft inventory comes up. They both where empty, but I could store what ever I need in them, thank god. I close the menu and make a gesture to throw the keyboard and it disappears. As I look around, I realize I need to build a stairway up to the top of the tower. As I fall to the ground floor, I make a small dent in the floor, but it was nothing to bad. I grabbed a block of oak stairs and a block of glowstone and set to work, when the stairs where done I went to work making glowstone chandeliers to help give the place light. When all was said and done, I made a door into the tower. As soon as I opened it they started to walk to to see what I had done. As I sat there, I started to look around at my work as well the decor was to my liking, Rarity, I think, had different thoughts about how it should look. As they kept on looking inside I went out side and started to make a stone brick wall around my house, just encase. I then started working on the gate that would open and close with a flick on the lever. When the last block and been set down, I looked up and saw that the ponies of ponyville had started to come and see what I had built. As I opened the gate and the fence post began to move up they started to come in, I grabbed a block of corse dirt and a block a cobblestone and started work on the path ways. When I was done the place look like it was medieval and fit in. As I started work on another house, I heard my pipboy ring as I looked down I saw a bar that showed that had creative mode under it, it was nearly empty. So I can’t stay in it forever, but about a day worth of time. The recharge time, I do not know of yet, but I will know soon. I need sleep... End entry > chapter 3 time to build > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 3 time to build As I opened my eyes, I found myself starring at the oak ceiling that I had put up. As I got up off the bed and put my legs over the edge, and I sat there for a few moments. Then a thought bounced into my mind. ‘Why didn’t pinkie throw me a party yesterday?’ Some how I know today would be the day she would throw me one. As I got up off the bed and walked into the bathroom to ‘freshen up’ I started thinking. What will today hold? My best guess was the CMC forming and there adventure beginning. God that is going to come to give me a head ache. Right as soon as I finish up my pipboy beebs. As I look down at it I see a bar that shows full charge. ‘Must mean creative mode’ Well I am in need of resources and I need as much as I can get. I walk down stairs to my mineshaft that I had started, grab the infhammer and set to work. Once I was in 80 blocks more I flipped myself into creative mode once more and set to work getting some ProjectRed lights going. Once the whole tunnel was set up I walked to the end of it and set down the lever to activate the redwire and the lights. Once my eyes got used to the new light I set to work on any ore I found in the mine, after about two hours had past, I started to walk back to the opening of the mine. I closed the doors and set to work on my network system from applied energistics 2. It took me a few hours, but I soon had everything set up. Once I had my massive drive tower set up, and filled with the largest drives I can get(1,600,000K drives) I went to work on setting up the access sections around my base one outside by my door, one in my kitchen, one near where I was going to set up my refinery, and the last one right before the door to my mine. As I set to work on the refinery bit, I noted I would need a lot of power. I put down a chest and placed everything I needed for the refinery in it. I then walked up the steps and then out though my door. As the sun hit my face I looked to the unfinished house that I was building. I then set to work turning it into a power plant of sorts. As I got the smallest and safest nuclear reactor set up, I set to work on the wind mill from immersive engineering I wanted to use. I grabbed some medium voltage wire and started set up a connection to some elite cables I had set up to the reactor. I started work on the tower for the wind mill to rest from, with the tower high enough to not cause any trouble I wired it up. With that done I grabbed some battery blocks from Ender IO, and set to work. I built a small house near the back of my house, it was about 20 feet by 20 feet, and was 40 feet high. It was filled with nothing, but the battery blocks. I think it could hold about 350,500,025,000 RF(redstone flux). The wind mill had already started to fill it. It was almost at 25,000 when I left the GUI and went to grab the yellorium and start work on refining the ore to bars. Once I had that going I set to work on getting a water source going to it, to use as a coolant for now. As the redstone engine started to pump I started to move the yellorium into the reactor and fire it up. The heat was fine and had found its sweet spot around 2000, and the decay for the fuel was alright but not the best amount. I set to work on the turbines and attached the steam from the reactor to the turbine. Once the steam was ready to go in, I got some gold blocks to use for the charge and creation of RF power. Once the turbine started to spin I set to work on the water output from the turbine back into the reactor, to be reused again, and again. With that system set up all I had to do was set up the elite cables to the turbine and get ready for the power. I walked over to my battery house and looked at what I had made so far, it was at 250,000 and was climbing by 3000RF per minute. Now I had a good source of power I could start transforming it into pure electricity and run the lights in everyone(pony) houses. 'Thank god for my Military training. I would have not know any of what I had not just thought if it wasn't for it.' With that taken care of I set down another chest and set everything I had on me in it. I went back over to the other chest and grabbed what was in it. Once I had everything back with me, I walked back down into the mine. I dropped it off in the storage system and went back up stairs. I grabbed the elite cable out of the chest by the reactor and connected it to my storage cells energy supply. Now it should never run out. As I walked back to the chest and placed the wire back inside, I walked over the the gate and opened it. As the gate opened there was a man standing there, once I give him a quick look over I realized he was the guide. “Hello?” I asked “Greetings, I am the guide, I am here to help you with your quest in this world of Equis”. In the very corner of my eye, I see a small text come up “A blood moon is rising” “you feel a evil presence watching you...” Oh no... > chapter 4 The night terrors begin > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Author note sorry for it being so jumpy i will fix that sooner or later. Pyro Mana-40 HP-120 Defense-400 halo armor + shadow armor 19 +minecraft armor. World extreme expert mode I know whats coming, but now I need a way to help fight it. I know, The volcano fragment or as I have it named in TF2, “Nature’s Destruction”. But where did I leave it? Oh shit I left in the the twin sisters castle. It must of fell off during my little spat. Fuck without it I’m dead meat. I have its twin, but I feel weaker with out it. They are always better with each other. I guess I could just fight with one and the Terrablade instead. I can hear the roar of the beast for out, but very far away about the far mountains north of Canterlot. I give it about 40 to 50 miles away from me. I look at the guide and say. “Get to my house and lock the door and keep safe.” “Way ahead of you.” he said running past me in to my house slamming the door shut. I wonder what will come to be when the monsters of the blood moon come out. Oh, before I forget, got to find spike and twilight. I know she must be going crazy right now. Whelp, best head for ponyville. As I got over the small hill on the path to ponyville, I see there is a uproar going on. I pick up the pace and make it to the center of town. When I sure I’m in the center of town, I look round and grab a speaker phone that pinkie left near by and spoke up. “Everypony head to the small town of the tera and head down to my mineshaft and hide down there, you will be safe. I have built some defenses to help fight off anything that comes by that is evil they will stop it. Hurry and will twilight sparkle come over here.” I watch as everypony begins to head for my small town, twilight alone with spike and the cmc show up. As I look at them I can tell there shaken up, but safe. “Zack, whats going on, why is the moon red, why is everything different?” “First it is a blood moon, this is a very bad time right now, very evil things are now walking round, at the rate that it is going, very bad and finally, spike?” “Yes?” “Write a letter to Celestia and warn her something very evil is coming here to ponyville and I may need her help, and to let Luna know no matter how hard she tries, she can’t move that moon, it now has a mind of its own.” “On it.” “sweetie belle, apple bloom and scootaloo.” “Yes?” they answered. “Do not touch anything you find in my place, that falls on you too twilight. I have a lot of things going on right now and machines that are at work. I don’t what to find them busted when I get back. I still have to get my power system in check. Just stay out of the place that has a sign that reads reactor room. I don’t need it having a melt down when I am away. Little ones how about you help get everyone there safe and sound. Twilight you to, get your friends to help you.” I see spike send the letter and I watch twilight and the CMC nod and run off helping get everypony to safety. As I watch them move and leave I soon spotted Celestia flying towards ponyville and she was fully covered in armor it looked like solar armor. As I look harder I spotted Luna next to her and what I would guess was nebula armor or dyed solar armor. As they land I hear the roar of the eye again, maybe 15 miles out now. As they land I decided to skip the whole meet and great and get down to business. “Alright I know this is going to be weird, but we are running out of time, it will be here soon. I just hope my defenses can keep it at bay should it go after them.” “So what is it that we heard from canterlot?” “Its called the eye of Cthulhu and it is a beast. It may look like a giant eye but don’t be fooled, much like a book, don’t judge it by the cover. Behind that eye is a endless amount of teeth. Not forgetting he can create minions to fight with him.” “We have nothing to fear, we can defeat it by ourselves.” “That is a bad choice luna, this beast is stronger then anything you have faced, and I have a gut feeling that this beast will be even stronger then in the game. Cthulhu was the very first one you face and was the easiest to kill, but I have a feeling that it will be a change this time.” I can hear it now starting to get close, but even with them helping me I am still up shit creek I need help, I need a power house, I need a juggernaut, I need a tank. I need Gilgamesh he is the only one that could help me take on these kind of beasts. ‘ring ring’ ‘Whos calling right now’? “Hello?” “I forgot to tell you you have some preset sets already made in your pipboy, for each class, a melee tank, a mage, a ranger, and a summoner. Just remember there in their first form. So basic armor, items and weapons.” “Melee has ancient shadow armor and for items they are a cobalt shield, flurry boots, band of regen, feral claws, and rocket boots. In the vanity slots is the winter cape with yoraiz0r’s scowl all have menacing on them. Melee comes with a platinum broadsword, and a wooden boomerang, but you have the terrablade already so use that instead. Mage has the ancient cobalt armor and the items are, flurry boots, rocket boots, band of regen, band of starpower, and nature’s gift. In the vanity slots is the mysterious cape with the Yoraiz0r’s scowl and spell. Each as arcane on them. Mage has the amethyst staff, flower of fire and frost, and the water bolt. Range has the necro armor and the items are the flurry boots, rocket boots, cobalt shield, magic quiver and a shackle. In the vanity slots is are crimson cloak with the Yoraiz0r’s scowl and spell combo. Has menacing on all. Range has the minishark, flintlock pistol, boomstick, gatligator, and the musket for guns, Hellwing for bows. Summoner has bee armor with band of regen, rocket boots, flurry boots, cobalt shield and honey comb. In the vanity slots is the honey balloon. Menacing on all. Summoner can summon both slimes and hornets to fight for you.” “Thanks for the tip.” ‘click’ As I decided on what to chose what to use. I decided on melee. As I over looked in the items and the armor I noted there was a bonus on the halo set “bonus damage for range and melee by 50%” so now the weapon damage for the terrablade with legendary modifier is now at 468 damage. The unreal minishark 41 damage, unreal musket 212 damage, unreal gatligator 144 damage, unreal flintlock pistol 68 damage, and unreal boomstick 95 damage. I had around 750 musket rounds. Still going to need a lot more rounds... I feel like I can take on the world, but not yet there just yet. Soon though very soon. Here is what the armor's looked like... I can hear the beast it is getting even closer. Time to test this out once I saw the eye I felt my jaw lower a bit the size of this thing was ungodly, it was towering over the clouds and I knew I was up shit creek. My last thought before taking am with the terrablade was that I was going to need to rest after this shit. > chapter 5 change in the wind > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 5 change in the wind The eye just sat there, floating there in the sky with the blood moon behide it. It minions where coming out and circling around it. Guarding it, I felt something hit my head it was a musket and about 100 rounds. Then a shadow ball landed infront of me. Then a ball of hurt landed infront of me, I felt a get shake and I saw a text showed up. “The eater of worlds as awoken” Fuck me... “Skullatron has awoken” God fucking damn it... Now I was shit canned big timed I saw skullatron flying up from the Everfree and the eater of worlds was coming from the badlands from the south. I watched them all come to one point and just sit there. I turned to the sisters and said, "Stay put, something fishy is going on here." they both nodded, Once I started to make way over there, they slowly turned over to me, and I started to feel something in the back of my mind, a voice started to speak. “Greetings pyro, the terrarian it is great to finally meet the one who will set us free from the curse the moon lord has set on us, our bother in tartarus, the one you call the wall of flesh, you must kill him too, but I would wait till the solar princess chooses her next one to take the mantle. The mantle of princess of harmony.” A panic neckless, undertaker, 100 rounds and a rotted fork fell in front of me. “the brain of Cthulhu has awoken” “Ah there is our other brother now” I watch as the brain fazed into vision infront of me. “Now as we where saying, we have been waiting for you, we have been here since the beginning, ever since the moon lord as bound us with this curse, but now we can be torn from this curse and set free. Now we will tell you somethings that we know. The current armor that you have for a set if your combine that with all the others for those classes that you have, including the molten armor, with the hero’s wares and you will have the true hero armor. It will help you with our brother that you will soon face.” “Once you have defected us use our loot to help your fight, but with each of our deaths, we will leave behide a essence, I, the eye Cthulhu, will leave the essence of sight, the eater of words, the essence of earth, the brain will leave the essence of thought, and skullatron, the essence of strength, you can use them to form minions to fight with you, but if you use one of each and the essence of flesh from our final brother you can remake Cthulhu anew, and we can be whole once more, but the moon would use our bodies to form his machine beasts to destroy you with or try to.” “Now there is one more final piece to cover, the night’s edge, this weapon has you must know holds great power, but if you were to forge it with that blade you hold now, the terrablade you will craft a new blade The Darkterra's edge. It dwarfs the terrablade in power and if you can make a excalibur and forge it with the dark terra’s edge you will get a reforged terrablade, then find a broken hero’s sword and forge it with the reforged blade you will get the True terrablade, but that is not the final form for it, the final form for it is the Blade of the Titans. The blade of the Titans needs all the celestial fragments, the true terrablade, the star wrath, meowmere and the soul of a titan, or in this case... Cthulhu.” “So wait I have to kill Cthulhu to get this the parts needed to forge this blade?” “Yes you do.” So if I am right, adding this up the legendary terrablade is 104 without my armor so adding the nights edge 63 with legendary mod to it, it comes to 167, legendary excalibur 86, 253 reforged terrablade. 357 true terrablade, so the final damage is 507 base, legendary mod to it= 761. plus 23% =1,750 damage. Add my halo set of 50% to it and it falls on 4,375. Crit 8,750 I think I got a boner from that. The blade of Titans, I like it. Bee 13 13% minion damage 2+ minions An-cobalt 17 12% magic crit -16% mana costs Necro 16 15% range damage 20% not to use ammo Shadow 19 21% melee speed 15% move speed Crimson 19 6% damage increased regen Molten 25 17% melee damage True hero armor 109 defense lovely. With all the stats for the armors used it in the forging yay So in theory the hardmode ores should get it to... I am going to kick major ass when I can get that tier of armor, but first I need to make a token, hmmm. I think my terrablade will work perfect for token, and my line I think will be... “To those who find this blade, if you need a melee tank of fire, a mage, a ranger, or a summoner or even someone to talk to, give a ring, for I, Pyro, am ready to fight.” “Why did you do that terrarian?” “Because I know some time down the road my help will be needed, be it from the weak or from new people or as the internet would call them ‘noobs’ but no matter the name or title I will help.” As I finish up speaking the very first portal opens up and I walk though it, but I turn and say “just wait there, I’il be back” The story is right here https://www.fimfiction.net/story/293141/11/tales-of-a-displaced-eco-freak/metal-head-problem One minute later I walk out the the portal back into my world and find myself just back where I had left from, but my thoughts where keeping me busy. ‘Jak was one strange man, he was kind and loving father, but one you would not want to mess with, be it his family or him in general. At least the dark eco, and light eco boost will come in handy, should I find a large enough source. Maybe in the everfree like in his world or hell maybe under canterlot’ “Terrarian where did you go?” Oh yea there still here... “No where in general, just to help a friend. So what have I missed?” “Nothing much just that a blood hooves army is heading this way from the everfree.” “Oh what a great... Wait a minute did you say blood hooves?” “Yes we did” ... “Shit” “We will leave you to face this fight by your self so you do not have the face us just yet, will wait a months to come back." As I watch them go I feel something in the back of my mind speak up, “Hello Zack it’s been a long time.” “Its been a long time old friend how has it been without us.” So I have both light and dark forms now and they both have my old demons, that now can talk, great... End entry > update > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- To those who have been adding my story to your fav's thank you. But some news is in order the next chapter is going to be longer and it will take sometime since i am working and it has been getting to my sleep. I will have it done sometime this weekend or next week. If you want anything to read, read the tales of a eco freak for pyro will be showing up in his chapters. And as of now i am still going to see if gilgamesh whats to play, But who knows for now. yours truly The15ThDoctor little side note updates will start up next year, the spark for this story left my head and i am starting to get it again. who knows pyro could hit god tier lol. > chapter 6 the dark runner part 1 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 6 the dark runner 1 month, 3 weeks time jump later My dark eco side has run a muck, sadly my past journal that had my story about me fighting the eye, the brain and eater of worlds was destroyed when I faced Skullatron. Sadly my memory took an blow and now I can not remember all of it. I do know now is I am running away from a pack of timber wolf’s that hank has pissed off. If you are trying to figure out who hank is, he is my dark side, my anger given form. He took over my new dark eco side body and now controls it and my body when I enter dark eco form. To give a quick sum up of what happened. 1. I ran into zacora and she had a potion that could bind the new DNA I had to a much stronger form. In lame man terms, I could bind the DNA of my powers to mine and fuse them together. So I’m a 4 way hybrid of my tf2, terrarian, the new eco powers and minecraftian DNA. So together I have a max strength to hold a dwarf star in my hands, or thor’s hammer, I can live to be about 110,950 years old give or take, I can now shift to the other mercs from tf2, I am looking into a way to increase my max heath from 500. Thanks to my new strength I can brake the sound barrier by running with out my armor, and with my armor I can hit around 250 mph easy. 2. My mining and resources now are well stocked. My small village has grown out word thanks to me buying more land. I now have a village about equal to that of ponyville. I did buy some land that brought us close to a mountain that I did start to hallow out and make room for to build a large underground base in. I am going to call it a vault. Just like from fallout but I’m not going to do, what vault tec did. 3. I have begun to expand my weapons and tools to more useful amounts. I have bought a fallout weapon pack from the merchant, so now I can add that to my list of stuff I have or swag if you must. I am thinking of get so stuff from borderlands but I have a feeling I will find someone out in the displaced that has it to sell. I now have the mining rig from terraria to use, so that's a thing but I still can not figure out how the sisters had it. A thought for later. 4. I am going to see if I can get in touch with some more displaced if I can. So that I have caught you up, I going to get back to me running from these dogs. Rest of the story here<--- http://www.fimfiction.net/story/293141/tales-of-a-displaced-eco-freak Will update when I get back from Jak’s world again. Untill then later Oww, that fucking hurt you piece of shit of fucking wood. > chapter 6 part 2 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- So sorry for not writing anything down for some time. My training with jak has been very, very tiring. So far it turns out i can use some dragon shouts from skyrim, somehow. My dragon tongue is very rusty that much is for sure, but i have gotten the unrelenting force shout down packed. Even though I get lunched back like a cannon.(note to self, learn better footing when using a dragon shout.) Every time i use it my throat hurts like a bitch and I tend to growl like a dragon for a little bit. I litter noted that my eyes even change into a dragon like slit, much like spike. Jak has been teaching me the dragon language but i just can't get it down right. Every time I try it just comes out wrong. It sounds like gibberish to me, personally, but if i can use dragon shouts, so be it. Now then I'm heading home for the first time for some time. I have no idea how much time has past there i just hope the wedding has not happened just yet. As the portal opened up, i landed with a little bit of rough landing but at least i made it. As i looked around at my surroundings I saw my 'town' was still going strong. I found the guide after some time looking around. The demolitionist had set up shop and he had rebuilt his house to match his style, and I had to admit I liked it. It was right next to my main house, my house. It looked like he was making a killing from the ponies that where living in town. Some that where good at mining came here after hearing of a good find in a town call ponyville. When I opened the door to his shop, i was surprised. There was the goblin tinker, he had set up shop along side the demo. In the back of the shop was the forge that was run by a griffin. I can't remember his name, i think it was iron claw or something like that. As i walked up to the demo I saw his name tag. His name was peter. Simple but perfect for him. "Pyro? My god man, where have you been, its been what two year since you left where did you go?" Peter said first showing shock then a little bit of anger "Sorry Peter, jak and me where very busy and my training under him has been rough for the past few days, But i did happen to get some good toys from over there." I said back, while rubbing the back of my head. It seem's like the tinker wanted to talk so after giving peter the toy that i know he would want, i went over to the tinker looking at his name tag i saw he name was Dell Conagher, well if that don't put some wind in my sail. After talking with him i decided to go to ponyville to look of the main six. I walked up to sugercube corner and saw that miss cake was there after asking her where pinkie was she said that she and her friends want to go take a picnic. After a few minutes of eating a quick snack, i began on my way to the hill that they where eating on. I saw them there eating and talking to each other i watched spike blurb up a letter, for the royal wedding. As i watch on futtershy finely saw me. I gave her a quick wave and after snicking off from her friends as they all had started talking about the wedding. The moment she was close enough i grabbed her and pull her into a deep hug. She was shocked at first but slowly she started to hug back. I began to slowly feel something on my shoulder. She was crying gently into my shoulder, and though sobbed words she told me how she thought I had died and that was never coming back. I grabbed her chin and lifted it so she was looking me in the eyes. In her deep blue eyes I saw the spark of love, a spark of love that was for me. And i was sure she saw the same spark in my eyes because before I knew it where kissing in the shadow of the tree. Both of us felt the spark of love, and we loved it. But i slowly felt a small ping of guilt to the other futtershy from jak's world. She had fallen for me as well, but i didn't know how to bring it forward. Hmmm maybe futtershy of my world would mind sharing a bed with another futtershy. After all its better then braking one of there hearts, or both. God the things i get myself into. After about a few minutes we both needed some air, the moment we separated we both found each others eyes once again getting lost in them. The moment i looked away i saw that the girls where still talking about the wedding, but pinkie had stopped she looked up at me winked and mouthed out "meet me at your house with futtershy" Knowing how pinkies minds works and the little sex devils she has, i know what she wanted and i knew she wanted flutters to join in on it. After pulling flutters closer to me I turned around and started back to my village. When flutters ask where we were going i said, to make up for lost time and to make whats coming soon much easier. In laymans terms rutting like a beast to help get all my built up sex drive out, and what ever her and pinkie had built up while I was gone. She was blushing heavily when we got my house, but as I looked down on her I saw the beast hidden in her start to show itself, and I knew I was in for a treat. The moment i opened the door i saw pinkie there on my king sized mattress with whipped cream on her with one the the shape of a heart around her backside. Looks like im having whipped cream pie tonight. Sorry to end it with a pun -sans > chapter 7 the wedding is coming > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Author note i Have started to redo some of the chapters to start laying in his hidden past, so you might notice a few different things popping up here and there. 'Oh, my head...' was the first thought that came to mind. As the bliss of sleep slowly past on I woke to the waking world. As the feeling in my body returned I started to feel what had happened last night. I felt my pelvis ache, both my arms where numb, and I was sure both my legs where as well. The moment my eyes opened, the truth of what happened last night returned. As I begin looking around I could see that my room was just a udder mess. My shelves were torn off the walls, the window shades where torn off, my couch was up side down, and I was pretty sure my bed was never this close to the ground. As the numb sensation ran back though my head about my arms, I looked down at my arms. Both had a pony rapped around them. Flutters being the one with the tightest grip, while pinkie seemed to have the lightest. As I looked at the both of them, I could tell they both had the same rough night I had. Both of their coats were missed up, their manes were as well, and I was fairly sure we all needed a bath. As I slowly started on pulling my arms free of both of them. I noticed the bites on my arms. God that was the best night of non stop sex I have ever had, but having two years of build up for the girls seems to give them even more reason to keep going. I will be kind and keep the acts that happened out of this notebook after all, what happens in the bedroom stays there. After getting free I walked over to my bathroom and started the shower, and god damn does the cold water wake you up. Thankfully the warm water kicked in after a little while. As I showered the full amount of pain hit me. Hell i felt a small tear drop from the shot to the head I got. I know I'm going to be sore for a while. When i was done, I saw that both pinkie and futtershy where up, pinkie spoke up saying she was heading home to get cleaned up and get ready for the wedding. I offered my bathroom to flutters to use, which she did. As she went in i felt little pyro jump at the sight I was getting, but I can't jump right back into it. After all, a full night of that, im sure all that would come out would be a flag with the words bang on it. (ha get it?) I left flutters a note saying im going to go down to my crafting area to get some potions of healing going. I'm going to need them to help get rid of this ache I am feeling. As soon as I was at the room I grabbed a bit of gel, some water, a glass bottle, and a glowing mushroom. The moment it was done I drank it. I could feel the numbness, ache, and pain leave from my body. After give a few stretches to help get my body ready for the day ahead, I put on some potions of strength and invisibility going. After all i know what storm is coming, and I was not going to get caught with my pants down. As the potions sat there brewing away i started on getting my armors find tuned. I grabbed the leaver i had in there and my secret work/project room opened up. inside sat my prototype power armor suit based on the one from fallout 4, the one under the code name X-01 mark 3. i had spent a good chunk of time working on this suit, the armor plating on it was a mix of steel and titanium alloy mix I was nicknaming steanium. I know not the best name but its the best I could come up with. I had installed a teleport stone in the back so it cold be called upon when needed. The helmet was very different from the X-01 i was building it with a prototype omega mark 7 helmet. It was starting to looked like the prototype mobile attack suit from the halo short called halo prototype. The body kept the X-01 build but i was slowing adding more armor plates to it. For a later materials i would be getting later down the road. At the same time i had been working on some weapons the could be connected to the suit. I had the chain belt fed Minigun done, the mini rocket launchers were almost ready, and the jet pack was ready to. the bombs i could not figure out how to make them. The final weapon I was almost down with as well was the shoulder mounted artillery cannon from the halo suit was well. I had made the barrel much longer so i could pick off far away targets. it was just about 10 feet long and weighed a lot. It was just the recoil for it was a lot for the suit to take but it was ready, in a testing way. But should i need to use it in the field I will, and I will just have to deal with any bugs from then on. I grabbed the torch and started to weld on the cannon to the jet pack along with the mini rocket launchers, I welded the ammo carry case for the minigun ammo. It had a max of 250 50.cal carry amount. the cannon could only hold 5 maybe 6 shells. each shell was a 150 mm shell with enough powder to get it over a mile per second. The rocket launchers only had 16 shots each, but each rocket held enough power to blow a hole though a wall easily. so well balanced. i was starting to noticed the power armor was starting to get mean looking but it was still unpainted, after a few minutes looking at paint jobs i decided on a black body with the under body having a red paint job. I slowly started to add the famous shark paint job to the shoulder plates and the very end of the cannon. I had to admit it now held a very intimidating look to it. After linking my pipboy, with the stone the suit could be called when ever needed, should the stone recharge by then. it looks like it would take a few days so got to be careful and know when it was wise to call it in. As i worked on it, my mind started on its path back words in time once again, as i worked my mind returned to the one memory that i fear. the memory of how my late wife had died. The year was in the early 2000's, i think 2018 or 2019. A fair was going on and things where going great. I was 24 and my girlfriend/ early wife was 21, and she was 6 months into her pregnancy. Our little boy was coming alone just fine with no trouble. The deaths of my family members where still very fresh in my mind. my father being the latest. I still miss them some much. We both where in a fair when IT happened. One minute everything was going good, then the bomb went off. In a garbage bin next to us was a home made pipe bomb meant for someone else, instead it took my wife. A shard of the pipe hit me and put a deep scar down the left side of my face. i still had sight out of my left eye thankfully. As i sat there hold her i watched the very life of my wife leave her eyes and to feel her heart stop brought me crashing down. The cops said I was broken. And truth be told, I was. I had never been more angry in my life then that very moment. After She was brayed i had crawled into a bottle and had not come out till it was almost the end of the year. An old friend that was with the army found me helped me get back and finely told me who it was that killed her. The fucking god damn ISIS fuck tards had been the one that did it. My fury that day grow to form a being i know all to well now. Hank my inner killer, My beast, My demon. After joining up I started making some friends. Soon there where 50 of us. We decided to leave the army, kind of and become mercs. We still where in the army, but we would take on a lot of missions. Missions that they would not give there men. We have only lost 4 brothers, my friend that helped me was one of them. We all had chosen a place to be buried should we fall in a mission. It over looks the ocean, up on a cliff. We made each stone for each of them. On the sides of the stone we put there rank and out emblem, The screaming eagles. 42 years later though, Now after everything I went though with them, there now stands 48 graves. Each one marked with my bothers and sisters rank, name and our emblem. I and our medic are the only ones the make it out on our finale mission. Both of us came back different men that day. Phil the medic's back was broken by a IED after getting me on the helicopter. I was in far worse shape. The shell that kill most of my brothers and sister took my left arm, the explosion from it took my left leg out and shrapnel from it took my left eye out as well. The thing went off just three feet from me. How i still am alive is belonged me but i have a feeling it was my wife's hand that saved me. After dragging me to safety most of my band where being taken down which ever ones that had survived the shell. Our medic did what he could to keep me for deaths hands and I still am happy he did what he had to do. We called an retreat and ran from the town. There where only 16 of us at best running away from there, only I and him made it back. As we where air lifted by an army heli, the last thing I heard before falling on deaths door was "Launch the missile the rescue mission was a failure. Got The screaming eagles leader and medic on bored both are in bad shape need emergency teams ready for landing, the captain is not looking to good." I came to in the hospital along side my medic. He was still asleep while I was healing. A nurse came in and saw I was awake. She ran out and after a few minutes later in comes out five star general. He told me he was proud that I had made it out and that he was sorry for my losses, turned on his heel and started to leave until he said "Goodbye four star general Zackery" I was proud I was a general, but at the same time the loss of every one was still over whelming. After getting a doc to help me, me and Phil made our way to our spot. With the help of the staff we built the rest of the graves for our brothers and sisters each one now dated with there births and deaths dates. In the very front I put a stone with a message on it. It read as such. "Here lies the brave men and women of the screaming eagles, who have given there lives to protect what we care for and what we stand for, so be kind and give them a moment of time to say your thanks to them." After word I put my name and my wife's name. As she was buried there as well. She always wanted a view of the ocean. I was to be buried with her after my death but that never happened. And now after thinking about it i want to go back there some I can see my old friends one last time. Well its time for me to go put on my tux and get ready for this wedding. > Chapter 8 The Ride, the truth and the Fun > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The walk to Raritys shop was quiet, the ponies were buying and trading. As I stepped into the store her bell went off and I heard her say coming but it came out muffled and it sounded like she was doing something before I came in. Well it is true, I was really paying attention to the main 6 and there shenanigans, but it was thanks to pinkie that I had been. By what pink told me last night, Twilight, Rainbow dash, and Applejack had crushes on me, thanks to pinkie and futtershy talking to them about what goes on with us. I didn't think futtershy would of talked about what goes on in the bedroom. pinkie yes, futtershy no, but anything can happen. Pinkie said applejack had the strongest crush on me, with twilight coming second and rainbow third. Pinkie thinks that after seeing my strength and my caring heart had helped as well. After saving Applebloom and Winona from a timber wolf involved crusaders incident did help a lot as well. With rainbow dash it more of a competition of speed between us, and i guess by what i can tell she likes her stallions faster then her, so she goes 100% to keep up with them. In a lame mans terms the faster the boy the wetter she gets. Twilight likes me for my mind and my heart much like futtershy. After all 250 years by myself learning all I can, and training pays off. Mental note, that's why I was gone for 2 years, 250 years don't pass in one day. Granted I still don't know how that room of space and time or better known as the hyperbolic time chamber works. How my sanity is still with me after being alone to a point is beyond me, though having Jak popping in every once and a while helped, I think. But back to the point rarity came down the steps with a faint blush on her face. A few seconds spike comes down the steps after her sharing the same blush. Oh time to rub it in on what went down with a cheshire cat smile. "Well, seems like you took my advice Rarity, I take it he was good." I said, watching the blushes turn deep red. "Guilty as Charged." They both said before looking at eachother. "Well, like I told you rarity, get him while the getting is good." I said with a smile. There blushes stayed red as I grab my tux, as I turn to leave they where heading back up the steps, and I could tell she was not going to be walking right for a while. As I made my way back home to put the tux on I heard twilight going on and on about her list as I walked past her home. She was listing off things she was bringing. I paused when I heard one keyword that made me feel sorry for her, being smart has its down sides and I guess she knows it the hard way. That its not easy to find love. The moment I opened my door pinkie and futtershy were there waiting for me. They told me they where going to get ready with me, aka they wanted to see me butt naked again. Girls I tell you cant make there minds up over what they want or not. As we all walked to the train station I saw my pride and joy steam engine I had worked on in my shop to help the railroads with there early steam engines. The Big 1 was her name, a big boy class engine made by me. Welded boiler, cobalt wheels, side rods, pistons, and to sweeten the pot, a small sun acting as the fire. Though it was what the rest of this train was carrying. 5 Coaches back sat my favorite little toy. The 9 barrel main battery of cannons. Now Big 1 could not get the plasma rounds or shots to work so it's using the classic rounds. 406 mm cannons rounds, nice and big, with enough stopping power to take down an army, or a battleship. Not to mention what waits to be used on the flat beds just behide the main cannons. Call me paranoid, but a rather have a lot of shit then none at all. Or as Bert Gummer would say, If you need it and I don't have it you sing a different tune. Its better to go overkill then be under gunned. As I have learned in the past more then once. As they slowly begin to bored, I take my tux coat and pants off placing my work mans suit on. I tell the crew that I will be the driver of her today and that they can go and relax. As I check the steam pressure and open that gates of hell to see the fire ball burning inside, I know she's ready to go. I step over to the right window and see the guard is waving her flag. I grab the whistle and give a quick 2 pull conformation whistle, I grab the break and the throttle and slowly open the throttle, and slowly ease the break to 75%. The big girl slowly begins to move, the first puff the loudest one. She begins to pick up speed slowing climbing from 2 mph to a nice 60 mph. As I ease the break to 5% she begins to pick up speed again. Now she is at a nice cruising speed of 96 mph and still climbing. We pass 100 and are still going. I look out the window watching the line ahead. I see the old Friendship express just ahead of us on the left side track heading up. I grab the whistle cord and with a long pull let the 4017 whistle scream out as we pass. As we passed i saw a small colt watching the train go by, eyes wide with wonder and excitement. The thunder of the 12 drives wheels pounding the rails told the world she was going and nothing was going to stop her. Up ahead I saw an old tree at fallen on the rails. I guess that's why the friendship express was going so slow. Well guess I should get it out of the way for them. I open her wide open, with no break on. She hits 135 mph as we hit the old tree, it blasts into dust as we past it. The girls starts her rhythm as she goes down the rails or as I call it her song. The drums pounding as she goes along, I grab the guitar that I keep in the cab and slowing play along to her drums. The world passes by, the sound of the drums beats to the tune of war, war that never changes, that never changes. The sound of millions of the dead scream out wanting there war to fight, there war to fight. The sound of the drums shale pass us to the next life, just follow the beat, just follow the beat. The world passes by, the sound of the drums beats to the tune of war, war that never changes, that never changes. (insert guitar rift here) The world passes by, the sound of the drums beats to the tune of war, war that never changes, that never changes. The sound of millions of the dead scream out wanting there war to fight, there war to fight. The sound of the drums shale pass us to the next life, just follow the beat, just follow the beat. So just follow the beat, follow the beat of war, follow the beat of war, just follow the sound of the drums that shale pass us to the next life. As I sit there looking up at the engine, I hear the drums beating, myself slowly getting lost in my head thinking about my old friends. As I set there lost in my thoughts the girls had come in, and I guess at that point I had a tear slowly falling down my face. As it falls I come back to the world around me, with lightning fast reflexes I grab the tear. Holding the single tear that I had shed in 345 years over what had happened. I looked up at the girls, futtershy was the first to walk up to me and she jumped up and hugged me. I just slowly rap my hands around her and finely let go of what I had held back for all these years, my tears. The girls did not what I was crying about, so after getting myself under control I decided it was time they find out what had happened. I kept the part they should not know out, the ones they could not handle. Due to me being numb during my duty I didn't have that bad of a PTSD. Sure I had my times when I would wake from a nightmare, but I was used to them. The girls reactions varied, futtershy was in shock, pinkies hair had lost its puff, rainbow dash jaw was wide open but had a look a respect in her eyes to me, rarity had fainted half way though, twilight was the same as rainbow dash, and applejack held a strong face of stone but one with respect in it. They now knew they where in the presence of vet of a 42 year war. A vet who had lost his family, his love, and the men and women he came to see as family, his new family. As I pulled myself back together once more, I shooed them off so I could get back to driving the engine. I know it was wrong to send them off like that but I had to focus on what I was doing. As I slowed as down as we slowly starting to claim the mountains. I soon saw Canterlot Station. As the switches went off we pulled in, and the automatic decoupler sent the flat beds into a siding off to the left. The payload on it shifting ever so slightly. I then noted the changelings that were on the outside of the shield. Oh, I hope chrysalis lessons to me or I will have to enjoy what I have planed to deal with her invasion forces. As I get off I watch the girls look up at me for a second before hear Celestia call out to them. As I watch Twilight run up to her mentor and nuzzle her and then her brother, and right after scorning him for not telling her that he had found someone. While that went on I watched futtershy walked up to me and nuzzled my arm with an understanding look. It was that look of we will talk later even if I didn't want to. God at times she is just like my late wife, she was always able to get me to open up about what ever bothered me. I looked back up to see chrysalis coming down the steps, disguised as cadence. As twilight runs up the steps and starts her and cadence's greeting dance. I start to slowly rebuilding my mask that I use to hide my emotions and to show fake emotions, Much how like Celestia does. Time to put my plan into motion. As I walk up to "cadence" I ask her if we could talk later about the music that would be playing and that I want to personally congratulate her on bagging a stallion like shining armor. She giggled and said she would like to talk about that later. After talking with her I walked over to shining armor and ask him if he show me how that guards trained. "Why should I show you anything, you don't fight, you don't have a rank, nor do you seem like you care." "For one jackass, I do have a rank and its general, 4 star motherfucking general." I said getting closer to him till I was right and his face staring him down letting the mask I had on fall for a moment. "Second I have seen more fucking combat then you or any of the fuck pansy's up here will ever see, so I want to see where I could help improve there training and maybe make then a true force to Protect the rulers." I said my killing aura fully covering the area around me, my eyes turning red with my rage, and him the feeling of the truth in my words finding there marks. "And third, I'm sure you need someone to teach you when it comes to truly fighting over just putting up a shield. A shield is made to defend but you need a sword to push them back as well." I said pulling away, putting my mask back on and calming myself down. Shining armor was on his ass scared out of his mind, I looked up at Celestia, Luna and the gang and the looks varied. I saw though Celestia and Luna's masks and they both show respect and wanted to speak to me later. The rest of the girls weren't that surprised at my rank, though I didn't tell them it when we spoke. I saw "cadence" show worry to me having saw my bad side. Shining finely snap out of his stupor and saluted me. He knew for a fact it was wise to even though I might not be a general here, I was back from were I am. I looked around the room and all the guards who had moved closer after my outburst, were now saluting me as well. "It would be an honor to have some pointers from someone who as severed, right this way." He said leading me to a door way. Though it was the train grounds that the guards train in. The grounds had several wooded training dummies around, some with wooden swords, or simple shields. Crossbow and bow targets, even an armor and weapons forge. I grabbed the create of ingots I had out of my pocket (bigger on the inside), summoned my Solar hammer and walked of the the forge. Celestia who had followed me raised her eyebrow at me as I grab a few ingot and started to forge a sword. I was going to make a Damascus sword, using a cobalt and two mythril ingots. As I slowly started to forge the 3 ingots together and form a alloy of the two metals. One strike and the bars were fused. I pulled the alloy bar out and fold it over to pull it out 3 more times. I started to form the blade and ran the blade over to the sharping wheel to out a blade to this dull blade. As I ran it over the shaping stone sparks shot off ever where. After it was sharp I grab the heavy acid I had in the create and polished the blade with it. The acid took the top layer off and revealed the Damascus design below. I took the blade and shined it, tested its weight and once I know it was done, I turned to shining and handed it to him. When he looked up at me I told him he needed sword fit to lead with. As a captain, he needed a sword that would fit him well. As he took into his magic grip, and walked over to one of the test dummies and tried it, it cut straight though it splitting it in two. He looked at the blade then me, I lifted the hammer, showing the engraving on the side of it. Then I pointed at his blade and the same engraving sat there. Made to last was the rune, to never to dull or break. I turned to Celestia and lightly toss the hammer to her. She grabbed and felt its power course though her giving her it power to call upon her own Hammer of Sol. She looked at the hammer and watched as hers appeared. Her hammer colors where different, matching her mane. While mine was crimson red with the hammer face being dark red. She tossed me my hammer and I grabbed it, I placed on my hip where it would hang. I felt it power slow and fade as the flames died down till they where cool. Shining looked at his blade, I walked over to him, grabbed it, and pointed it at one of the crossbow targets. I channeled some power into it and and the ghost like blade shot from it and embedded itself in the target. I handed it over to him again and said try it do what I just did. He grabbed it and focused on the blade, I felt the blade charge up slow at first, but i think he was finding the path, and once it hit its peak, the ghost blade shot out and hit the target. His reaction was funny, he was both shocked but happy. I had given a way of fighting close up and a way to fight at range. he seemed to have liked it. As I looked the blade over in his magic grasp I told him grab it by the handle, his swings will have more power behide them. As he did I watched him, his swings where lazy and simple, but easy to work into a proper form of fighting. "How do you know so much, pyro?" ask both Celestia and Luna. "When it comes to swords, i was self taught and learned from my mistakes. When it come to my fighting with ranged weapons, most i learned from when i went though boot camp, and later on just using different weapons. What im most skilled with and long range weapons, like sniper rifles, the least would have to be unusual weapons or homemade weapons. I was the lead sniper on my team for a reason, and was known by the enemies as The Blue Death. The name came from my weapon I used that was the metallic blue paint I used on my rifle, and the color for my scope lens." "Not to be rude but what are these rifles you mean." Asked Luna. "Rifles are weapons that are made to fight at range, you already have muskets, which is like the ancestors to rifles. But the big difference is that mine use self contained rounds while the muskets you have to load down the bore, which i bet a unicorn can load very easily then a earth pony or a pegasus can. Not to forget rifles are just a class of weapons, with many different child groups. Like Assault rifles, sniper rifles, heavy rifles, even sub machine gun rifles. When it comes to range warfare we humans excel in aces." As i look back on shining swinging his new sword, a thought comes to me. I call out to him and tell him he should name his sword, to give it a name that his foes will come to fear. His pauses lost in thought, then said he would call it, wuuthrad. why wuuthrad though, and how would he know the name, but its his choice, not mine. It would honer the companions to have there best know and feared weapon be used again, if only by name. I told it i was a very good choice to use for a name, and that the last weapon to hold the name would be proud. He smiled at that. As I look away from him and back to my two shadows, I see celestia tossing the hammer of sol around, and luna looking at it, jealous of it. "Luna, don't think i didn't come without a weapon for you, this luna is the void bow." I said calling forth the bow. The power of the void flowing though it. I turn pulling the string back, the arrow forming as i do, i take aim at the archers target and let the arrow fly. It hits and it explodes and flash of void energy. The shards of the target being pulled to the void tempest that is the arrow made of the void itself. As I turn back to her I hand the bow to her, she takes it her magic pulling the string back and lets a arrow fly to her next target. As I watch it sore, I saw rainbow dash coming around the castle and landing next to me. As I watch Luna's void arrow blast apart her target, I tell them I have one more power to give, but it will stay with me. I channel the power of arc into my hands and I will the storm ready to be unleashed. Rainbow jumps back feeling the bolt of lightning that I was calling down. It seemed like that other pegasuses in the guard had felt it to and had backed up. The arc storm bolt hits me and I feel the power enter me, changing me up, I begin to levitate, the lightning running down to my hands ready to be unleashed. "Oh can I have it please, its so cool please?!" rainbow begs. "Wait till you see what it can do." I said focusing myself for the show. I float over to the targets as the guards back away, the Pegasus guards feeling the power. As soon as they where out of range and let the lightning out the arcs fly from my hand burning the wooden targets around me. Then I focus it into bolts and start shot at each one. The bolts toss some of the lighter ones back, then I charge the finale bolt. Calling it down, it hits and blasts all the targets away turning them to ash mid air. As what is left of the arc power in my system dissipates, I look around me. The guards looked shocked(no pun intended), and most of the training dummies are gone. Guess i will have to make more for them. "And to answer your question, rainbow dash, no. You need to be of sound mind and be in a state of peace to even begin the channel the raw power that is lightning. You currently have neither. But when the day, you realize that show boating is not that way and you find peace, and calmness i will teach you then. Because if you don't have any one of the needed parts you could harm those you care for or hurt those that you do not wish to hurt." I said while looking at her. Her jaw was wide open, having a hard time finding words and shifting though being angry confused and understanding. It think or hope some of my words got though. The clouds began to part showing the sun once more. "Now don't we have a wedding to plan and a party as well?" > Collab filler > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- So did a collab with a displaced prime and didn't feel like posting his chapters with me in them on here since it ends up with Pyro being with ed and prime till the end so i will post the link to his story "cough promoting his story for him cough" sorry i was just lazy boy.
