Back up at the castle the captain of the royal guard returned to the throne room with a frustrated look on his muzzle. For him to let such a creature escape will not fall well with the Princess. As he walked his walk of shame he reached the giant double doors that lead into the throne room where the Princesses are waiting for his report. The guards at the doors nodded at their captain and opened the door for him, allowing entrance.
Shining Armor released a small but heavy sigh as he trotted forward, approaching the pair of stairs that lead to the two thrones. "Ah, welcome back captain." Greeted the solar princess. "How did you fare against the intruder?"
Shining bowed before his princess and spoke. "I am sorry princess, the intruder escaped through one of the memory windows." He raised his head to look at the princess. He waited for the scowling but it never came, only a small frown but he felt like it was not aimed at him.
"How did he managed to get away? I send a whole platoon with you to secure the intruder and bring it to me." Celestia asked with slight confusion within her voice.
"I'm not entirely sure princess." Shining said. "We were advancing on it as it spoke in an unknown language, I ordered four of our unicorns to sent out a bolt of sleeping magic but it sheathed its sword and within seconds a pair of silver orbs appeared in its claw? I'm not sure what they were but he summoned a barrier which absorbed the magic without any trouble."
Celestia looked at Shining Armor with slightly wide eyes. "Tell me more captain, how did the creature escape."
"Of course princess." He replied. "After that it drew its greatsword once more but its eyes started to glow, like a pale bluish color. It took a deep breath and roared out three unknown words, but what really shocked me was the effect those words had. Once it roared those words a wave of blue energy was sent towards us and when it hit all our weapons were ripped from our hooves, mouths and magic! I think during the chaos within the platoon he jumped through one of the memory windows and into the lake beneath Canterlot. For when we looked at the spot where the creature was we saw nothing but a broken window."
Shining finished his explanation and awaited the princesses reaction. The frown on her muzzle was still present but it looked like she was deep in thought, then a thought entered Celestia's mind. One that might spell trouble for her subjects.
"Captain," She started. "Gather a small group of your men and take the train towards Ponyville, I have this feeling nagging within my mind that this creature will seek refuge and the path that leads through the Everfree Forest leads towards Ponyville and the old castle. I want you to go to Ponyville and keep an eye out while I send another platoon to the old castle." Celestia ordered to which Shining Armor gave a salute and a bow before running of towards the barracks to gather his personal squad to pay the little village of Ponyville a visit.
Down within the forest the Dovahkiin was still following the path he came across with his dagger still within his hand. He grumbled in annoyance for his hunger was starting to bother him quite a bit. But luck was finally on his side as the bushes on his left started to rustle, he quickly crouched down to avoid scaring it off.
"Laas Yah Nir." He whispered once more as several rather large red wisps appear just beyond the bush. "That can't be good." He told himself as he slowly backed away from the bush, unsheathing his greatsword.
That moment several rather hungry looking wolves emerged, only they were nothing like the wolves he has known from Skyrim. They were made out of wood for some reason and their eyes glow a sickly green much like the Spriggan's but these wolves hold more blood thirst within their eyes than he's ever seen. The wolves slowly walked towards the Nord snarling and growling menacingly.
"Come get some you overgrown bush." He taunted and watched the wolves carefully, especially since he sees a green goop drip form their wooden fangs which indicate they are poisonous. After a few tense minutes of staring at each other awaiting the actions of either parties, but he noticed that the wolves were growing impatient and it didn't take long for one of the younger mutts to pounce at the Nord. "Big Mistake." He growled as he reared himself and thrusts his blade into the leaping wolf as the enchantment burned the wood turning it partly to ash. The wolf landed a few meters behind him and yelped and whined as it licked its burned chest.
"Vulnerable to fire huh?" He said to himself as a smirk grows on his face as an idea came to mind. While the wolves were looking increasingly angry and pounced at him with great speed, he took a deep breath as his eyes start to glow red as small trails of smoke rose from his mouth. As he gathered enough energy he roared out his thu'um! "Yol Toor Shul!" Soon the wave of dragon fire washed over the wooden wolves. The howls of agony died out as they were incinerated in mere seconds. Only piles of ash remained and the whines behind him continued. He sheathed his sword and turned around to face the wounded beast, it looked at him with fear.
He slowly walked towards the wounded wolf, it tries to crawl away from him but he whispered with a soothing voice. "Kaan Drem Ov." A gentle wave of the thu'um washed over the wolf as it slowly calmed down. "I had no intention to kill your kin, but their will to kill forced my hand."
The wolf whined in response but looked at him with understanding. "Quite intelligent are you not?" He opened a small pouch which was located on his belt and took out a small vial filled with a red liquid. "Open your maw, and don't you dare to bite." He warned the wolf who complied and opened its maw. He leaned closer and poured a bit of the potion within the maw as the wolf hacks and gags lightly. "Heh, it's not the most tasty brew I know but it should heal your chest soon."
The wolf looked down at his burned and blackened chest as the wood starts to heal. "Feeling better?" he asks as the wolf wags its tail happily which he found quite out of character from how it was about a few minutes ago. "Glad to see that. Now shoo, I bet your pack will be awaiting your return." He stood back up along with the wooden wolf who looked at him for a few more seconds and then rushed off in some random direction which presumably leads towards the pack and its alpha.
"Now then, to return to finding food, my stomach can't handle another thu'um." He commented and then spotted a rabbit hopping carefree across the path. 'Thank you divines.' He thought and quickly took hold of his dagger.
