//------------------------------// // Ch.4 CJ // Story: King Sombra's rule on Earth // by Gryphon Gaming //------------------------------// The road to CJ's mom's Aunt's was bumpy. The last time the roads were even touched was atleast a year and a half ago. Even then, the road to Tia's place was barely used, not to mention she lived at the end of a long dirt road. Her house was deep in the woods and her house was a snow white. The roof a midnight blue. The flags extending out from both sides of her front door. One had a large cartoon sun painted and a cartoon crescent moon on the other. Her door in the middle of the front of her house. CJ parked the ambulance in her empty garage that dug into the ground a few feet. She got out and lightly closed the door, worrying her aunt might be busy. She checked a large clock sitting on the wall of the garage to confirm the theory. The analog clock read 7:36 guessing it was AM, CJ walked up to the front door. She was just about to knock when she heard voices inside. She put her ear up a few inches from the door and listened. "Look Celestia, you kicked me and my army out of Canterlot and know you expect me to help you?" a weird voice that sounded like two overlapping lady voices out of sync. "Yes, we need to bring down King Sombra at all costs. Your army should even the odds." CJ could recognize the voice. It was her aunt Tia. "Atleast you didn't get blasted by the Elements of Harmony." A different voice explained,"I'll help Celestia, but Chrysalis might not want to unless there is a prize at the end." "Damn right!" the overlapping voice lady exclaimed. "Fine, I'll allow permission for you to journey through Canterlot once a month." Aunt Tia said. "Hmph, make it twice and I'll do it." "Hmm, Fine." "Then we have a deal." "Yes. So Nightmare Moon with me and Chrysalis with her army plus the remaining human resistance are going against Discord, King Sombra and his minions, plus all the mind controlled humans." CJ's head accidently hit the wall when she failed to hold up her observing body. Everyone inside stopped and scrambled. The door opened. A white caucasian women with rainbow hair answered the door, a polite smile on her face. She saw who was at the door and nearly broke into tears. "You survived!" She cried, giving CJ a large hug."I feared the worst when the tower didn't... that doesn't matter, you're okay!" CJ felt a warm tear on her shoulder. "He took it, aunt Tia. He has the heart." 'Aunt' Tia's eyes dilated and mixed with her glad expression, she looked back at the two other ladies in the room. One had a green shirt on, long black jeans. She was African American and had blue hair. Erie green eyes stared back at CJ. The other women, slightly midnight blue skin but mostly black. Her hair was midnight blue, almost looking as if it gave off a slight glittering aura. She wore black armor, probably just steel or copper painted over. She wore armor leggings, matching the chest piece. She had a deep blue pair of eyes seeing through CJ. Tia's expression made the other two almost pale in fear. A small boy, light green T-shirt and ripped black jeans with black hair light bluish eyes he had vampire-looking teeth, walked in holding multiple documents in his left hand. A small ghetto shank knife in his right hand. "I have the documents." He said in a screechy dark voice. CJ looked at Tia,"What is going on here?" CJ questioned.Aunt Tia looked back at CJ. "Look, there are somethings you need to know. First off, your dad was in the army. You probably already knew that. What you don't know is that he was a pony, his name being Shinning Armor. He lived in a place called Equestria. You probably heard 'Europe'. You maybe heard the Chinese but in fact they were changelings." The blue haired lady escaped a fake cough from her lips. CJ was dumbstruck, still taking in the information. "What in the Holy Hell are changelings?" CJ asked, inviting herself in. "We are creatures from our old planet that feed off of positive emotions." The women with blue hair added. The young boy walked up to CJ, just under an inch from her height. "We can also shift into any living creature too!" the boy paraded. CJ remembered how her younger brother used to go on the internet and how almost ever joke he said was from some website called Reddit. "Cool story, bro." CJ chuckled,"Inside joke." CJ then wondered something," Why are you guys here and not on Eur- I mean Equestria?" "We're here for King Sombra." The Armored women responded as she rose from her seat and walked into a different room. "Is it just you guys?" CJ wondered, taking a seat on a brown, leather, 3-seater couch near the door. "No, they're are others here." The armored lady answered. Aunt Tia walked over and sat next to CJ, putting a hand on her back. "There is always someone I trust with me in these times. My sister is back home, taking care of Equestria." "Hmph." The armored lady scoffed. The blue haired lady looked at her, a grin forming,"Are you mad that you are only a corrupt shell of your former self?" The armored lady looked away, a little angrier. "I have with me a vast majority of poni-"Tia was interrupted. "You have only four ponies." The armored lady corrected. "They are my best field medic, soldier, recon, and leader. Not including me as the leader, she is just here to take control until things go back to normal after Sombra is defeated." The back door opened and walked in two large ponies. One was white, a purple shield on his flank and a horn. Different shades of blue stained his hair. He wore what looked like an old red strapped uniform. Like the British back in the 1700s. The other was a mare, pink in color with a large, thick, golden necklace. She had both wings and a horn A golden tiara sat on her hair of multiple warm colors and one streak of white. They both stared at CJ and then at 'Aunt' Tia. A large tear formed on each of the pink mare's eyes. The white stallion stared on, almost at tears himself. "CJ!" They yelled in unison as they galloped at her. Giving, possibly, the most tight bear hug ever made. CJ didn't have time to flinch as she was cascaded by two large ponies. The air flowed from her body. They both got off of her as she tried to stand up. CJ was only maybe six feet and eight inches, almost an entire foot taller than shinning. She went down on a knee. "Mom? Dad?" CJ was almost at tears. Everyone in the room had some kind water works going. "I've been apart from my baby too long" Cadence cried as she wrapped her hooves around CJ. The Shinning Armor sat down next to her. "We heard what happened to your brother and we thought you went down with him." CJ looked at him," How do you know he was caught by Sombra?" "Recon runs through there all the time. He saw what happened to him and he left he was spotted." "Why am I human and you guys pony?" "Well, you were born here on Earth, your mom was in human form and if you don't change into a form in the first minute of life, your default is what your parents are. After that, changing form is artificial and you will eventually change back. We were originally pony, you were human, or something like that. I'm just trying to remember from the top of my head" "What happened to you?" Cadence asked as she tried to clean the bruises from her daughter's body. "Long story." She started
