The Hero They Needed

by The Alchemist


They needed him. He needed them

A/N This is from the perspective of Eld. I've been developing my writing style. Hope you like it.

"Time to grab my Ipod and forget about the world." I thought to myself

I don't know how long I sat there just daydreaming about me being the hero and just generally having adventures. *DING* "Oh jeez it's already midnight. Might as well get to my usual work. My "usual work" was working on designs for weapons mostly modifications for existing guns. It helped kill time and I was just waiting for my parents to come home. But at about three in the morning I started to get worried. "God Damn it's hot in here". My dark brown hair was matted to my head which didn't look different from my usual style.

*Crack* "Oookay the fuck was that?" I asked myself Just as timing would have it my shelf fell down giving me a heart attack.

"JESUS"S PUBIC HAIR! I shouted FUCK ME I SWEAR I'M HAVING THE WORST OF LUCK TODAY."

"Trust me your day is going to get a lot better." A voice said

"WHO SAID THAT?" I shouted moving my back to a wall

" Sleep now my child. You have much to do still."

Lo and behold I fell asleep. I woke up to find myself in a completely white room. I started panicking until a calming aura fell upon me silencing me for once. Then I felt my body become unresponsive which made me start panicking again.

"Dear child have you no faith in your creator?' A booming voice asked me

"God?"

"Yes I'm glad you are here and in one piece. But I must ask of you one favor." He asked me once again

"Yyyeah shoot." I said scared for once in my life

"Well It seems that you have been chosen by Archangel Micheal to take on this task." God said in his loud booming voice

"Well whats the problem that needs solving" I said my voice finding strength once again

"That will be up to you to decide how to deal with it when the time comes. This world is beyond my reach and it takes much of my strength to send you there. Once there you have to find your way back. St Micheal will give you your weapons and armor. Now it's time you met him."

"Wait if you're God then how am I here?" I asked curious as to how I was in heaven.

"That's easy you're house collapsed in on itself during an earthquake. You are dead."

I got over that quickly enough mainly because a door appeared out of nowhere and who I assume to be St Micheal stepped out.

"St Micheal?" I asked the angel walking over. He simply nodded and set down a package wrapped in old brown paper on a table. He was dressed in armor that was pure white with a golden sword that would make any soldier jealous. He had brown hair and piercing blue eyes.

"Well Mr.Eld it seems God has chosen another hero yet again. He pulled out a set of white knights armor (Like this ) Now this armor is different than usual. This is it's natural form but if you want to change it then it will shift forms to whatever you want."

He proceeded to pull out a sword.

Now this sword is a special sword it listens to no entity but the hero it's bound to. Which is you. It IS a fighting sword so expect combat."

"I thought angels didn't fight."

"I am the warrior angel,the patron saint of the armed forces. Violence is not something I abstain from. Now to try on this armor. He snapped his fingers and the armor appeared on me. It was heavy as hell. The sword was hanging from my waist. Pretty bad ass if you ask me.

Now you won't remember anything after your dumped on that world as it's in another universe which God has no presence in. So say any prayers before you leave as you won't remember why your there."

I said nothing. Everything turned white.

Equestria Minutes before Eld arrives

Princess Celestia had been fighting the Chaos Being that was threatening Fillydelphia. Alongside her stood the Elements of Harmony,A platoon of Royal Guards and her sister. No matter what they did it wouldn't go down. The Royal Guards were having an even worse time fighting the biped. It moved with amazing speed and agility. The guards were holding their own.



Eld's POV

I woke up on a hill. Sounds of fighting were coming to my ears. I stood up and looked down at my clothes and started wondering why I was wearing an MCCUU I was never in the military so it confused me. I also had a gold short sword on my belt. I began wandering towards the sound of battle. What I saw surprisingly didn't shock me I couldn't put my finger on it but it seemed something happened before I got here.

I saw ponies fighting these silhouettes. One was a person the other was a dragon. There were eight ponies. Six normal looking ones and two that looked like royalty. There was an orange one and a blue pegasus that looked to be in critical condition. I rushed in and stood between the battered ponies and the creature.

I asked the tall white one "Do you need me to kill it?" She simply nodded

I muttered a prayer to St Micheal the Archangel. I don't know why but it seemed fitting. I unsheathed my sword and raised it getting into a fighting stance. The thing charged me I dove to the side and brought my sword up stabbing it in the back of the leg. It reached back and swatted me away. I groaned in pain and got to my feet and charged at it energy surging through my body.

I hit it with my shoulder pushing it back a couple of feet. I slashed it across it's chest the thing howled in pain. It tried to hit me but I moved out of the way and stabbed it in the throat. It was easy to fight this thing it was only about twelve feet high standing on it's hind legs so it was about half that height. Me being 5'11 was able to hit it with relative ease. It reared back and started gagging on it's own blood it hit the ground becoming weaker. I stabbed it in the head killing it I wasn't shocked it had disappeared.

The biped one realized it's brethren had fell in combat. It didn't want to fight me anymore so it disappeared in a cloud of black.

I felt something hugging me. I looked down and saw it was a pink pony. She was crying and hugging me I felt really bad.

"Thank you so much for saving my friends. She sobbed into my chest. I would never smile again if something happened to them ."

"Pinkie that's enough. A voice said soothingly but commanding

I turned to find myself face to face with the tall regal looking alicorn

My name is Princess Celestia this is my sister Princess Luna. I see you've met Pinkie Pie the Element of Laughter.
Allow me to introduce the rest of the Elements of Harmony. My most faithful student Twilight Sparkle."

"PRINCESS. Twilight's voice was urgent It's Rainbow Dash and Applejack they are seriously hurt."

I don't know what compelled me to do what I did or how I did it but I did. I walked over to the two ponies lying on the ground. One was screaming about her wings and how she'll never fly again. The other was shouting about how she couldn't buck apples anymore. I placed my hands upon them and they started glowing white. The others looked at me in shock. I healed them to the point were they were able to walk and in the pegasus's case fly.

"My wings...... She said in disbelief
You healed them." She hugged me in pure joy. The other one gave me a hug too. "Ah can't rightly thank you fer helin mah legs. So ah'd like to invite you to a dinner at the with mah family at our house." She said But me and Rainbow can't pay ya back fer all the good you jus did fer us."

"It's really no problem at all. You needed help I gave it to you and your friend."

Pinkie Pie ran up and started to ask me questions.

"Do you like parties? and cupcakes......wait I know I'LL THROW YOU A PARTY YOU ARE GOING TO LOVE IT." She dashed off leaving me chuckling

"Extraordinary can you do that continually or does it make you tired?" Princess Celestia asked me

"Where I'm from that's not supposed to happen." I told her

"I take it you aren't supposed to have wings then?" Rainbow Dash asked me

"No I'm not. But for some reason I'm not shocked." I told them

After that they finished introducing me and explaining the elements of harmony to me.

"Wait Mr....... Rainbow was saying

"Just call me Jake,Jake Eld" I told her

"Okay Jake how about you stay at my house since you have wings. Or did have wings what the buck happened to them!?" She sounded really worried at that last statement

"I guess like my healing powers they just disappear at times." I said shrugging

"Oh ah know whadda you say to stayin at mah family's farm?" Applejack asked me

"Sounds good. But do you know any good places to eat?" I asked them

I ended up eating a couple cupcakes Pinkie made for me. And dear god were they delicious spongy little bastards.

"You like them? She asked me bouncing around the room. I simply nodded She squee'd in delight and brought a box of them out for me. Take them you earned them." She told me before ushering me off to Applejack's house

As I walked up to the front door ready to knock a large red stallion appeared to my right side.

"Now just what in the hay are you?" He asked me sounding more than angry

"BIG MACINTOSH WHAT IN THE HAY DO YOU THINK YER DOING. Applejack hollered at him
THIS HERE IS A FRIEND OF MINE AN YOU BEST BE ON GOOD BEHAVIOR. She turned to me Ah'm mighty sorry bout Big Macintosh."

"Don't be he was just protecting his family."

"That's mighty kind of you Jake."

Applejack and her family had dinner. It turns out hay on this world tastes pretty damn good. After that Applejack told the story of me taking on the creature and defeating it. Then she mentioned that I had saved her legs and Rainbow's wings. Big Macintosh looked pretty guilty at that moment.

After that I was shown the guest room and I finally fell asleep after replaying the days events in my head.
