//------------------------------// // Chapter 04 // Story: The Silent War // by Drmalaria //------------------------------// Dealing with the devil is something that not everypony should play around with, or at least in this kind of conversation, when you speak as if two goddess were in front of you and you are talking like a demon… Well, that would be something quite enjoyable to watch with some popcorn and soda. Coming back to the last scene of the last chapter-if that wasn’t so obvious-the stallion who calls himself Gas was explaining about what happened in the last massacre in the battlefield. Nopony was happy with this kind of explanation. Gas looked happy talking about this, Celestia and Sonne were… well, they were in silence, but neither of them showed any kind emotions on their features; they didn’t look shocked in the slightest. The main six didn’t say shit, but they did look shocked, in contrast to the pricnesses. Fluttershy was trembling with fear after hearing something that she didn’t need or want to hear. The Rarity’s gaze was full of confusion and disgust. RD and AJ were in a similar situation. Pinkie Pie wasn’t disgusted, but she indeed was confused. And of course, Twilight Sparkle, she was the only one of the six that was angry. Alexander was… sad? Scarlet wasn’t happy after hearing what had happened whit her friend. The couples, Shining Armor and Cadance were shocked, too “Don’t fuck me with that shit!” yelled Scarlet, full of wrath “How that hell we… no, our fucking,” she looked at Celestia “country made a deal with this fuckers after they kill our fucking people!?” Gas laughed after hearing Scarlet being Scarlet “And why the fuck are you laughing at?” she asked nicely “Seriously, what that fuck is your problem? You talked as if you weren’t a pony at all! Do you even know how hard it is losing your fucking friends!?” “Enough!” Shining Armor toke part of the conversation, trying to put some order “This is not a good place to talk about that!” he looked at Gas “You should take off that mask in front of our highness.” “No.” Gas simple denied. “What!?” he asked confused “You should show more respect, take off that mask!” his wife tried to calm him down. “I’ll take off my mask the day that you have two horns in your head… but, now I am thinking about it,” he looked at Cadance “you don’t have more than two right now? Having a wife like her probably you aren’t enough stallion for her, hehe.” “Bastard!” “Shining, please, calm down!” his wife was trying to avoid a fight. “Why is he angry? If he’s angry, probably I am telling the truth.” “Silence!” said Twilight Sparkle. “Weird, I thought Celestia would say that.” Gas murmured to Scarlet. “How can you talk like that with something so delicate; have you thought that telling something like that could make a mess?” Twilight Sparkle asked “We are in peace, throwing this senseless-“ “Fuck that!” Scarlet yelled “Don’t talk about this kind of shit after hearing one fucking example. Alexander, tell me where the fuck are those soldiers, I will cut their dicks and make them fucking eat it!” “Enough! Our soldiers aren’t monsters” Shining Amor didn’t hear bad things about his soldiers. “Ghahahahahaha!” Gas started to laugh, again “How can you prove that?” “They are soldiers with good friends, good past, we don’t make sick bastards like “those” you were talking about our soldiers.” “How can you even believe your own shit?” Gas asked with irony “If that’s correct, I swear that I’ve never buried somepony after an error,” he looked at the waiter with some beers “thanks buddy.” He took all the beers, and started to drink them “But I’m telling the truth, I swear for the love of beers, and the unfortunate fact that I can’t get drunk.” He toke other beer. “Prove it.” Shining Armor’s gaze was like a burning hell. “Can somepony talk in vulture?” Gas asked. “Oh, oh!” Pinkie jumped after hearing that question “Fluttershy can talk in vulture, and and, she can talk in any animal language!” Pinkie explained. “Pinkie!” AJ yelled. “Oh, really?” the doctor couldn’t believe that “Good lady, that’s good to hear. Hey, Pink-maned one!” he yelled at Fluttershy “You can talk with my friends the vultures, they are nice birds, just don’t try to mess with them with somepony dead, or nearly dead,” he looked at Scarlet “They probably have in their stomach all the dead bodies… wait… no, we can ask them something like that, ’cause they already pooped that. Well, if you want, you can ask them and if you don’t believe them, ask them where they pooped, they always poop in one place… or at least the ones who lives near to my house. Thanks to my goddess that I wear a gas mask when that thing smells like the worse shit…. Until the ground and beetles do its job” “Gas, isn’t it?” Celestia asked. Everypony was amused after hearing for first time her voice “I see you are an honest pony, but talking about that won’t help this country.” “Bullshit!” Scarlet yelled. “Enough, Scarlet. Show more respect, please.” Sonne’s ordered to her loyal soldier, and she didn’t shoot another word. “Well, Gas, think about how the other ponies feel with this kind of conversation.” “I don’t care about other ponies feel about this; I don’t even care about the feelings of your people. And I said your people because evelestrians don’t belong any more to Sonne.” Shining Armor and Twilight Sparkle didn’t want to say anything for the respect of their goddess. “They are our friends, our soldiers-“ “Our puppets full of shit.” she blinked after hearing that “Beginning the war is just another move for a tyrant.” “Equestria did not begin the war.” “I didn’t say that,” Celestia blinked again, but this time, the others ponies did that too “I said: Beginning the war is just another move for a tyrant. I didn’t say who the hell the one who started it was. But, looking at your reaction, who knows? I think I do, but, hey, don’t be mad at me… ” he burped; ten beers aren’t enough for this guy. “Wait a freaking second, Gas!” Scarlet couldn’t understand the Gas’s words “What’s your point with all this shit, anyway?!” “He means that anypony could have started this war, even our goddess.” Alexander, for the first time, said something. “What!?” Scarlet yelled, Celestia was amazed at Gas’s words. What was he trying to do? “Are you trying to tell me that our goddess, Sonne, was the one who threw the first fucking rock!?” “Neither.” Gas answered “I didn’t say anything like that.” he gasped “I didn’t say who was or anything like that. Have those words meaning not. You should believe in a doctor who loves dead not. Be in this place I should not. Yes, hmmm.” “Fuck, Gas, I can’t understand shit.” “Sorry, my writer was writing like Yoda right now. Well, using the Yodar converter-“ he laughed “Anyway, I’m out, I don’t want to deal with this mess.” “Are you trying to escape, coward?” Shining Armor yelled. “Nah, I don’t want to fight with somepony with three horns. Lady, I talk to you in the love hotel, later♥” if he wasn’t wearing that mask, Shining Armor would have watched a blink at Cadance the moment when he was trying to open the door with five beers. “I can’t take this any longer!” Shining Armor started to run towards Gas. Everypony was shocked after watching this. Gas turned back to watch Shining nearly punching him. “Sup buddy.” He burped. Nearly in the moment when Shiny tried to punched him, he smells the breath of Gas full of alcohol and other things that he couldn’t imagine, falling to the ground “Dude, are you okay?” he asked with a smile in his face “Anyway, when he wakes up, give him something nice to smell, don’t try the pussy of the pink alicorn, those cats are fucking gross, hehe.” after this, he just left the room. Twilight Sparkle and Cadance run to help Shining Armor, Scarlet was laughing, Alexander was kind of sad, Celestia and Sonne were confused after watching such a scene. After the doctor’s show, everypony couldn’t eat after that and they went in their separate ways. Scarlet wasn’t satisfied after the Gas’s show, even she was confused. What was the meaning of Gas’s words? She gasped. 01:34 AM, everypony was sleeping, except of course, herself. She was trying to get asleep, but her wish to talk with her goddess was so strong that she started to walk around. The knights of Evelestria at least knew Scarlet, so they let her go. She was thinking about the words that she will use for the beginning of the conversation with Sonne “Miss Sonne… no. My dear goddess Sonne… crap, I need to be more fucking polite.” she murmured “Well… I need to do this… what is that…?” she didn’t believe what she saw through the door -thanks to be a little opened- Sonne and Celestia were talking to each other. “How can you still wearing that smile, Celestia?” Sonne asked. “That was not that bad, at least I laughed after that kind of show of that pony.” “When we going to move to the others kingdoms?” Sonne asked. Celestia giggled “Sometimes I forget that you are my other half, at least I have a better mouth and will.” “You might be the “good” one, but at least I am not the bitch full of pride.” “You are full of pride and very cruel.” “I used to be part of you, I know who’s proud.” “What will be our next target?” “The Griffin Kingdom, they are too neutral.” “And what will happen with the dragons?” “They are nothing more than fools.” “Celestia, you know better than me that they are cancer.” “No, the cancer died after “that” happened.” “The problem is that we don’t have a motive to start a war.” “We can make it; it is far easier than you believe” “You are a bastard… Well, now that I think about it… does it mean we are both bastards?” “Indeed.” Scarlet couldn’t understand what was happening, what were her eyes hearing and eyes watching. She started to run, she was trying to call Alexander for help, but something alarmed her. Some shining spark, was it a beam? She couldn’t see well and she didn’t want to know. She couldn’t fly, some tears were falling, was that her moment? Well, no. A portal opened in the ground, taking her to a place that she couldn’t understand. She was in a cave full of light, full of ponies, zebras and griffons. “Fuck! That one was close.” a zebra with a spiky mane and sunglasses yelled “Isaac, why you didn’t that early?” “Lady, I couldn’t go faster ’cause this shit needs preparations.” replied Isabelle, the unicorn. “Lyra, Bon Bon, check it out, this mare is here.” the zebra yelled again, calling two equestrians, Lyra and Bon Bon. “Wow, this is incredible, we have her now.” Lyra commented. “Why didn’t we knock her out in the first place?” Bon Bon asked. “Nah, that wouldn’t work. She was with that weird doc.” “Indeed.” “Wait a fucking minute!” Scarlet yelled in fear “What is this place… where the fuck am I?” she was scared, regardless she tried to sound intimidating. “You are with friends, lady Scarlet.” a female griffon with pony factions appeared, her wings were silver and black “My name is Kalut, this is the rebellion army’s base. You are safe from the liars my dear.” “What are you? You don’t look like a normal pony or griffon…!” “Well, my parents were a pony and a griffon; I am a hybrid, dear. But let us not talk about that. This place is where the truth comes from. We are not liars like your goddess, or I should say the goddess of equestrians?” “What do you fucking mean?” “She does mean that this is all about Celestia, she is your goddess right now, or didn’t you see that at the castle?” the zebra asked. “We are The Dawn of Moon Army, my dear. We are here to free the world, everypony, every griffon and even the dragons from the tyranny of Celestia.” Kalut explained, Scarlet couldn’t understand anything at all, she simply couldn’t.
