How to Crash a Castle

by Walkofshade


Setting the Conflict

After saying that one word I reached for my hammer on my back, only to realize it wasn't there. However with some quick thinking I used a different mode of attacking: Spam. Willing a certain little asshole to life a strange looking frog appeared next to me, floating forward towards the large horses. "WHAT IS THIS CREATURE?" the blue on yelled, only for my new best friend to lick out it's tongue and slap her in the face with it. At that point the car fell into complete silence, the waterfall outside even seeming to stop flowing. I took the chance to say my part.

"Like I said, frogs." and with that I ran forward, football slamming my way past the white one and ran outside, once again using my magic to spawn the scaffolding that I loved ever so much. Launching myself into the air with it's spring power I whooped in joy before hitting the waterfall, and spawning another frog to help me swim up it. (Note: you CANNOT do this in the game, I just thought it would be a good way to expand on his abilities.)

(Celestia POV)

I stumbled as the creature blasted past me, running out of the car. Looking over my sister was still recovering from the shock of being slapped in the face by a strange frog creature, which appeared and disappeared as soon as it attacked.

"WHERE IS HE? I WILL MAKE HIM PAY FOR HIS CRIMES!" my sister said, blasting my ears out. She was looking around glaring at everything she saw. She whipped her head around as a whoop of joy could be heard from outside. She was about to charge out the door and give chase when I stopped her.

"Sister, calm yourself. He is only riling you up. Before charging after him I would like to see if the elements of harmony are okay." I stated, looking to the back of the train where the elements were lying, unconscious. I walked towards them, my sister following close behind. Seeing one of them twitch I paused, but my sister continued walking forward.

"WHERE IS IT?" came a yell from the bunch of ponies, and the element of loyalty, Rainbow Dash came flying out of the pile, right into my sisters face. I resisted the urge to laugh as my sister was knocked to the ground by the speeding cyan mass. After returning to her feet Rainbow spoke the fastest apology I had ever heard before turning back to her friends and helping me and my sister wake them up.

(Royal Guard POV: Pvt. Train Parts specifically)

I looked around at the ponies bustling around the city, most moving faster than usual. The disturbance at the castle had caused an increased number of guards to be sent out across the town, only further driven by the fact that the princesses had both left mysteriously. I keep hearing something happening in the throne room, but it had been only hushed whispers as most of the information was classified. I was already out on my patrol route for the day when more guards were sent out, so it didn't bother me until I realized that I had a new partner assigned to me. Sgt. Screamer.

(This next part may be both inaccurate and offensive to military people. So essentially this will be for the most part a straight up assholish piece of writing and I do not mean any direct offense to anyone, just putting it out there. Please don't stone me to death, that would ruin my day and I would never be able to fully complete Dark Souls.)

Sgt. Screamer was the worst of the worst, the loudest drill instructor there ever was. So when he spoke the entirety of Canterlot could hear him. When he yelled Equestria did it's best to give him the finger. So I was less than pleased when he showed up halfway through my second round.

"PRIVATE PARTS, GET YOUR HEAD OVER HERE!" Screamer yelled, causing all the ponies around him to either cover their ears or burst out laughing.

"Yes drill sergeant." I groaned, walking over to him.

"PRIVATE PARTS THIS IS GOING TO BE A VERY LONG AND HARD DAY FOR ALL OF US, SO DON'T THINK THAT YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE WHO IS BEING JERKED AROUND."

"Are you doing that on purpose?"

"DOING WHAT?" at this point ponies were now showing up by the dozens to see the comical event unfold.

"Never mind." I replied, slouching a little.

"PRIVATE PARTS STOP DROOPING, HARDEN UP!"

"Yes Sir."

"LESS TALK MORE WALK, PRIVATE PARTS, IT'S TIME TO STIMULATE THOSE MUSCLES!" with that I began to walk, my face hotter than lava and about as red as it too. "PRIVATE PARTS WHY DOES YOUR HEAD LOOK FLARED, IT ISN'T THAT HOT IS IT?" I wanted to run away as the crowd's laughter was louder than ever.

"No drill sergeant." was all I could squeeze out of my throat. Suddenly I heard a whoop of joy and the sound of splashing water. Looking around my eyes narrowed at the feeder pool for the waterfall that was about a meter or two behind me. Grasping my spear and forgetting the taunting crowd I slowly walked towards the water, motioning for Screamer to follow.

However before I could do anything else a strange biped flew upwards out of the water, followed by a strange frog-like creature which disappeared shortly after I saw it. The biped landed in front of my, and I did a quick once over to make sure I was correct. The creature was wearing a full suit of armor which gleamed in the sunlight, and was wearing a purple undercloak underneath, covering it's shoulders before leading into bracers which protected it's arms. The helmet was the thing that scared me the most though. With just slats for eyes I could feel it glaring at me, it's strange horns casting a shadow which spread a far way down the road due to his position to the sun.

"Well than, there are soldiers. Are you going to attack me or something?" the creature asked. I was about to answer until a certain Sgt. did for me.

"DAMN RIGHT HE WILL!"
