New Life of a Crow

by Knight of Crows


Aftermath, meeting the 6

Princess Celestia POV

I hoped this would have gone smoothly. I would have expected better from my subjects, but instead this spoiled brat completely disregards my warning to not aggravate Ry- I mean Griever and nearly gets herself killed. I will have to deal with her or at least her parents soon, but damage control, and now prevention comes first if I know my student well enough. It was fortunate Misty was here as well as my sister and I being able to put up that shield in time or everything directly behind her likely would no longer exist. I didn't doubt his warning, but I didn't think he would go that far either, dark magic, several fire and lightning magics, wind, ice, and that sword's power all just to kill one pony. He isn't a monster, but he is anything but merciful if that is how he responds to an insult to his friend.

"Griever, once again I'm sorry for my subject's actions and will de-"

"That's enough, if she doesn't learn why silence is golden after this then there is no saving her, or she won't be worth the effort anyway. If she keeps this up she'll likely be the cause of her own death, don't apologize for other peoples stupidity, it doesn't help anyone." Griever interrupted, knocking out the guards who attacked him AGAINST MY ORDERS "With that said this little introduction has gone way out of control and I get the feeling trouble is on it's way."


Twilight POV

We were on our way to the town hall for an announcement by Princess Celestia, if we weren't so busy with all the former slaves we might have started going sooner. I wonder what this is about, the diamond dogs are obviously going to be a topic of discussion, but what about that pony from earlier? Could he be involved in her announcement?

*SCREAMING*

"What's going on? Why is everypony running?" I tried asking the fleeing ponies, but none were stopping to answer, none except for Diamond Tiara.

"There's a monster and it's pet at town hall attacking everypony, it even tried to kill me, the princesses are fighting it now." she said between sobs, clearly frightened by the whole ordeal.

"Come on girls, we need to help the princesses."

"Time to kick some flank." Rainbow said

"Ah'll give it a good ol' bucking." Applejack said, almost as eager as Dash did

"I still have my party cannon ready." I'm not even going to ask

"We'll teach that brute some manners." Rarity said

"Maybe we can convince the monster to be good?" Fluttershy said so quietly nopony heard her


Griever POV

I just finished dealing with these guards and all I can say is this is pitiful. Ignoring my immense power and immortality they should have had every advantage against me and still failed miserably. I'm self taught and anything I know can easily be figured out or I learned and managed to apply from other games, they have armor (however shitty it may be being gold), years of training, and outnumbered me. I hope they were rejects for the real army or else I'll have to go a mix of Mr. Popo, Alucard, and Sergeant Hartman on them if the princesses will let me.

"I'm putting this out there right now, your guards suck. I've seen puppies with better self defense than whatever that was."

"I told you we should increase the training and difficulty of it for our guards." Luna said after being silent for so long.

"After this display I'm more inclined to believe you now." Celestia said having watched over a dozen of her guards be humiliated by one guy.

"So where do we go from here? I doubt I'm welcome here after this." I said scratching Misty behind her ears.

"HEY UGLY!" What now? I turned to find 6 ponies ready for a fight, they look familiar.

"Dont worry princess, we'll handle this." No you won't

"Twilight, you don't understand, this isn't what you think it is." Celestia said, attempting and failing to defuse the situation.

"Let them learn the hard way, pain is the best teacher after all." I told her

"You'll pay for this monster!" Twilight said not hearing the princess. Do they have any better insults than monster?

"I doubt that, and not for the reasons you might think." As I finished saying that the damn rainbow one charged at me with her fist. She was fast, but my reflexes were better as I grabbed her fist and held her in place before I made a shield out of Shadow Edge (finally thought of a name for that damn sword) and kicked her back to her friends. I taunted her into attacking me again and not only did she do so, but she used the SAME ATTACK to which I responded with a shield bash sending her flying into the building behind me. She's likely going to need a doctor for that. I turned to find the orange one with a lasso in her hands, as if that's going to do anything.

"Git outta our town you rottin' dirty no good varmint!" Finally, something new

"I have a better idea, get out of my sight worm, or perhaps I should reintroduce you to the dirt. You're supposed to be close to it after all."

She screamed after hearing that and tried to strangle me with the rope, but made no progress, so she started punching me after, I responded punching her in the face, grabbing her arms and dislocating them, then kicked her back to her friends after she passed out from the pain.

"Does anyone else want to try?" The white one stepped up.

"I'll teach you respect you brute!" Twice I was called something other than monster, is it my birthday?

"Learn respect first before you try to teach it bitch." She took offense to that

"I was going to use as little violence as possible as to avoid getting dirty, but now I'll just throw you in the dungeon where ruffians like you belong!"

"KINKY!" She snapped after I said that and started trying to tie me up and attack me with I think those are needles and thread? I got up close before doing what I've always wanted to do to people like her.

"BITCH PLEASE!" I bitch slapped her into the pink one, knocking both of them out.

"And then there was one." You can stop this at any time princesses.

"No there's 2, Fluttershy can still help me put and end to your evil ways." Twilight said

"Are you fucking brain dead? I just beat 4 of your friends with no more than 3 hits each after beating over a dozen guards alone, unarmed, without magic, and you think that coward can help? She can't stop shaking nor can she even look at me. You stand no chance, it would be best for everyone if you went back home and played soldier there, not that you would even do that right." I really hope this arrogant cunt takes the bait.

"How dare you! As the personal student to princess Celestia I'll deal with you myself." Come at me bitch.

"ENOUGH! ALL OF YOU!" About time Celestia.

"I mean no disrespect princess, but why didn't you stop them sooner?" I asked.

"Princess, why did you stop me?" I just fucking asked that bitch "I could have locked him in Tartarus where he belongs!" Twilight asked.

"I doubt the gates and chains could hold me anyway." I really do.

"It is because he is not an enemy my student."

"How? He just attacked everypony for no reason, tried to kill an innocent filly, and seriously hurt 4 of my friends!"

"That filly provoked him, he warned us if anypony attacks him he will hospitalize them, if anypony insults or attacks the wolf next to him, he would kill them if my sister or I didn't act first. The condition of him coming with us to be introduced was he and the wolf be pardoned of any crimes they commit under these circumstances."

"And what did this filly do?"

"She insulted Misty and essentially grouped up this girl with nothing but good in her heart to those diamond dogs, after princess Celestia warned them to not say or do anything that might provoke me. I told her I would make them pay even if they were the child of a lowborn peasent or a king and I stuck to my word."

"That doesn't justify attacking everypony, hurting my friends, and murder!" This bitch is getting on my nerves.

"To clear some of this up, I knocked everyone back to avoid hitting them as I tried to kill the brat. As for your friends they attacked first after your princess basically told you to stand down, by the way, had I still been a normal human what one of your friends did would have likely killed me before I could react, as for the other 2, that was armed assault and the orange one would have likely killed me as well. As far as the law is concerned I am still innocent and all of you except for the yellow one are guilty. I refuse to apologize for your stupidity."

"Griever, please stop this." I heard Luna ask

"As you wish. If you need me I'll be on that hill in the distance with Misty." We flew away after. I get the feeling we won't exactly be welcome for a while.
