MLP: Kerrigan's Journey

by King Xeno


Thoughts of Home (Twilight)

Twilight laid down on one of the Leviathan's softer and dryer organs, for they had been told that it would be a while before they arrived at their next destination, she still remembered something that happened before she found this location.


Zagara had begun to approach Kerrigan, coming back from the last of Abathur's sessions. She walked with new found confidence and then began to speak.

"I feel so powerful now... I feel like I am a threat to you..." Zagara had said, but Kerrigan didn't turn to face her Brood Mother.

"If you think you can take the Swarm then make your move... But next time we fight it is to the death... Understood?" Kerrigan asked, and Zagara backed away raising her hands into the air.

"I will continue to serve you my Queen and learn from you. Maybe someday I will rule the Swarm, but it is not today." Zagara said, bowing to her Queen.


Twilight sighed, she followed the Queen because she couldn't really do anything else. She wondered what she would be doing in Equestria right now, should the Zerg have never attacked. She then thought of the others in Ponyville, what had become of them... Most likely killed like the Princesses and her brother. Then she realized that something else had been with them when they black out. She shot upwards.

"What happened to Spike!?" She asked, now worried about her assistant. However she lied back down and looked up at the roof of the Leviathan's insides, there was something interesting about this creature, how it had the ability to travel through the stars like the Overlords did. Could other Zerg travel through pure space as well? Twilight wasn't sure, but she wanted to ask Abathur a question later, and for now she would sleep.


Twilight walked along the streets of Ponyville, with a large smile as she waved to several ponies that passed by. After all I was a great day. She let out a giggle as she saw Derpy do little flips in the air. She was happy for today the Princesses and her brother were visiting. She let out a happy gasp as she saw them waiting outside of the library and she ran to greet them.

Twilight had said something, and Shining responded. They both began to laugh as she noticed something falling from the sky, she became confused and her face showed it. The other three turned to look at the object as it fell and landed nearby, causing a large crater to form. Then out of them came the monsters. They rushed at them with their claws ready, some taller than others, some flying in the air, others with large scythe like weapons that dwarfed the entire library. It was then that they realized they were under attack. Ponies began screaming as the monsters started their slaughter, killing randomly with no signs of regret. Spike ran out of the library in a panic, and grabbed onto Twilight, she was like a big sister to him. He pointed in fear as a shape made itself clear to them. Large boney wings moved behind it, its tendril like hair fell to the sides of its head, its pure pink eyes glowed with power and anger. It was their leader. Then the strange creatures began to attack them. Shining let out a cry of horror and pain as some shot out acid, that began to dissolve his flesh until he was nothing more than a puddle of green sludge, with small amounts of blood floating in there. The giant monster approached and with one swing of its natural weaponry, sliced Princess Luna's head off, with a cut so clean that a professional surgeon would never be able to accomplish. The smaller monsters swarmed Celestia, biting and clawing at her, until her entire back half was gone. Twilight could see her intestines hanging out of her half while her heart still beat, but suddenly stopped when it was pierced by a large spine. Spike tightened his grip on Twilight's leg, and she could hear him crying. Then the leader approached her and Twilight began to scream, then everything went black.


Twilight woke up screaming, she stopped and covered her mouth with her hooves. She looked around and felt a wetness on her face, she had been crying in her sleep. She got up and wiped away the tears before approaching the Evolution pit.

"Abathur...? I have a question... When we were brought to you... Was there a small lizard like creature with us?" She asked, and Abathur paused, he placed his hands together and soon answered.

"Affirmative. Took and stored. Perhaps useful sequences within." Abathur responded, which made Twilight both happy and angry.

"Let him out! He's my friend!" Twilight shouted, but Abathur leaned forward and his voice turned malicious and dripped with venom.

"You cannot order me! You are not the Queen! I created you! I can destroy you!" He shouted, swiping at her with his claws, but she managed to avoid the attack.

"What is going on here!?" Kerrigan asked, startling both Twilight and Abathur.

"Abathur has another friend of mine stored somewhere! I just want my friend back!" Twilight shouted, and Kerrigan looked at Abathur.

"Abathur, is this true? Was there something you were hiding from me?" Kerrigan asked, stepping forward.

"Was supposed to be surprise. Make Queen of Blades happy with new creature. Use essence of strange animal." Abathur explained, but this didn't seem to please Kerrigan. Her eyes flashed yellow and Abathur reeled back in pain and let out a cry of shock and agony. Twilight took a step back, while she was angry at Abathur, she didn't want to see him injured or killed.

"My Queen, please stop. Just help me get my friend back." Twilight said, and Kerrigan nodded.

"Abathur you are to release the creature immediately." Kerrigan said and Abathur disappeared into the hole and crawled back up holding a green cocoon.

"Subject inside. Cocoon used for stasis purposes. Break to release creature." Abathur instructed placing it on the ground. Twilight stepped forward and began to slam her hooves on the cocoon until it shattered like glass, and inside was Spike sleeping soundly, but stirring and beginning to awake.

"Spike. Wake up! It's Twilight!" Twilight shouted, and the baby dragon opened his eyes, and looked at her before yelling in fear.

"It's one of the monsters!" Spike shouted, attempting to climb out of the now bowl shaped cocoon.

"Spike! Calm down!" Twilight said, and the dragon stopped.

"Twilight? Is that you?" Spike asked, as Abathur reached inside of the cocoon and lifted Spike out.

"Interesting. No other creature matches. No other creature like. Must take sample." Abathur reached his second set of hands towards Spike and plucked a single scale before setting him down before Twilight and Kerrigan.

"Twilight what happened to you?" Spike asked, hugging her.

"The Zerg happened... We were captured and we were changed... We were made into them... However we're different than most other Zerg. We can think freely, and we can make our own decisions, but we still serve our Queen." Twilight explained.

"Your Queen who is that?" Spike asked, but Kerrigan stepped forward in awe.

"A real dragon... Here I thought they were nothing but fairy tales... I guess that I should have expected this, after I found a planet of talking ponies, griffons and other creatures. To answer your question I am the Queen of Blades, but you may call me Kerrigan should you wish." Kerrigan explained, getting on one knee to speak with the dragon.

"Ok... Where are we...?" Spike asked, but Kerrigan and Twilight began to head for the exit. "Wait! Where are we going?!" Spike asked, chasing after them.

Kerrigan chuckled before saying "We've arrived at our next destination. The frozen moon known as Kaldir."
