AMAAA Chapter 16 outakes

Suddenly the throne room doors burst open and three pegasi in military uniforms came in. I only recognised one, Spitfire.

“Captain Spitfire, what brings you here?” Celestia already knew why but I think she asked anyway for an explanation.

“The noble’s requested military action. So they called us in.” Spitfire then fished out a scroll from her saddle bag with one of her wings. “This is an official order from the noble’s to take action.”

“This is absurd.” Celestia took the scroll with her magic and read it. “How could they!”

“I am sorry princess, but equestria is now in a state of emergency.” Spitfire then looked over at us. “You two are under arrest.”

“Wait just a second… Can someone please tell me what is happening?” I asked rather confused.

Celestia was the one to answer. “During a state of emergency my power as princess is void and all decisions are made by a council of military leaders and nobles.” I could see the anger in her eye’s.

“I will not arrest him.” Midnight approached Spitfire. “Guards.” The seven night guards that escorted us in took defensive stances.

“Midnight Blossom do you want a court martial?” Spitfire threatened.

Things were starting to get out of hand, or hoof in this case.

“Everypony stop!” The room quieted down so I could speak. “Why is canterlot in a state of emergency?”

“Because of the ship above canterlot.” Celestia said angrily. Her anger wasn’t directed at me but at the council. I assumed.

“What if the ship disappeared?” I asked. I think I found a way out of this mess.

“Then… There would be no need for…” Celestia then realized what I was saying.

“General. I think you know what I am thinking.” He nodded in confirmation.

“I think if you look outside miss Spitfire you will see that there is no ship.” Ace said with a smug

“Everypony stop!” I shouted. This caused the room to go silent. “Spitfire, what if I gave you a reason not to fight us.”

“Like what?” She asked suspiciously.

“I can show you and the council why it would be a bad idea to try and fight us.” I really didn’t think it would come to this, but I guess it was inevitable.

“What reasons could you give me or the council to listen to you? You are the enemy after all.” I still didn’t know why this was happening but I planned on finding out.

“Do you want to be one of the responsible parties in causing the deaths of hundreds of thousands?” This got her attention.

“Our scouts indicate that you have at most four hundred soldiers.” Spitfire said smugly. “I think you are bluffing.” I then got an idea if I couldn’t get her to come willingly then I guess forcing her to see things my way would be the fastest way to settle this.

“Jane, initiate protocol seven three six. Target the badlands. Spitfire you are coming with me.” I then ran towards Spitfire and we both disappeared from the throne room.

We reappeared in a desert, in the distance there were large mountains that rivaled the size of mount canter.

“What did you do? Where are we!” Spitfire demanded.

“Do you see those mountains over there?” I asked.

“Answer me! Where did you take us?!” I held her in a telekinetic grip. “Put me down!”

“Just watch.” A few seconds passed then we were blinded by a white flash
