Chapter Five: The One Who Doesn't Understand
Dan's POV
So after the fiasco of Sombra returning for the third time around I was sleeping in my cave again. Ever since I had gotten free, I started to focus on my second objective, getting back my memories. I still had no memory of my own, but I had managed to gain some of Alduiin's memories. What I reembered from him was being destroyed by the Dovahkiin, or in the Equestrian language, the Dragonborn. After he killed Alduiin, I some how got control over his body, and his mind got destroyed. Because of this, my mind had been damaged and my memories got locked away. I was still working on getting them unlocked, when I noticed Twilight was walking into my cave. I woke up and greeted her.
"Why hello Twilight," I said. "What brings you here?"
"Um," Twilight began, "I just wanted to thank you for helping me and my friends with the Crystal Empire. If you hadn't come, I don't what could have happened."
"Don't mention it Twilight," I replied. "It was no trouble at all. Though, I am curious as to how he was able to resist both the elements of harmony and the crystal heart."
"I don't know how he was able to resist them," said Twilight. "But I do know that he had help."
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"Well," Twilight began, "I don't really know how to describe it, I kind of just felt it. It was some sort of presence of magic, but unlike anything I had ever seen or felt. It was kind of like your magic, but weaker, much weaker. Like whoever did it could use your type of magic, just not as well. Which reminds me, I also wanted to ask to see if there was any way to teach me that kind of magic?"
"I do not know Tiwlight," I said. "In order to use my magic you must have the soul of a dragon. However I can teach you the language. With the ancient language of the dragons, rituals and some spells will become stronger, easier to do. The language is hard to learn though, so you must be prepared. Are you ready?"
"As ready as ever!" Twilight shouted excitedly. I smiled at her enthusiasm. She was so willing, so ready to learn, even at this age. I found it, cute, in it's own sort of way.
???'s POV
I watched as the creature spoke to my sworn enemy, Alduiin. They spoke casually, so they must be allies. That meant they were my enemies because any ally of Alduiin is my enemy, no matter who or what they are. I looked to the city below. The city looked like an average city, but it was full of the creatures. I thought about my predicament. Soon after killing Alduiin, a portal had opened up, and I got sucked in. I came to a mysterious land, only to find Alduiin was still alive and was taking shelter above the city. At first I thought he was plaguing them with his vile presence, but it seems they were his allies. Because of this, they needed to be destroyed. After all, Alduiin is evil, and any ally of his is evil too. I needed to start my mission soon. I took one last look at Alduiin, then jumped of the cliff, using a shout to make myself etherial as I went down. The time was now to begin Alduiin's destruction again, but I wouldn't start here. No, I would start in the town that was a few hundred miles away from the city. It would take me all day to get there, but that wouldn't stop me. This reign of Alduiin would end. and I would end it.
Time Skip Twilight's POV
It had been fun learning some of the ancient dragon language with Alduiin. I hadn't learned much, but Alduiin said he was impressed with how much I learned with the short amount of time we had. That made me happy, hearing that from him. The train stopped and I steped out. Back in ponyvile at last. My friends had already left for home a few days ago, but I had stayed to catch up with family, and spend some time with the princess. I started heading towords my castle, when all of a sudden.
"HELP!" somepony screamed. Oh no! Somepony was in trouble, and from the sound of it they needed help fast! I immediatly took flight so I could get to the source of the scream.
"ALL ALLIES OF ALDUIIN MUST DIE!" I heard some other pony called. This was bad. This was really, really bad! I flew faster till I saw the pony in need and her attacker. I gasped. Her attacker wasn't a pony. It was a human! How did a human get here? Well it didn't matter, this human was decked in some sort armor that looked like it was made of bones and scales, but mostly bone. He also had a really big sword and had it raised over his head. He was going to kill that pony!
"Stop!" I cried getting the human's attention. When I did this, the mare he was attacking ran away, and the human had his full attention on me. "What do you think you're doing?" I asked.
"ALL ALLIES OF ALDUIIN MUST DIE!" he cried and then he charged at me, sword raised. He swung it and I just barely rolled out of the way. I recovered from my role and shot some magic at him. It hit and he was blown back into a wall. He recovered and charged again, only to end with the same result. He stood once more but when he did, he did the unexpected.
"FUS RO DA!" He screamed and a blue pulse of energy flew from his mouth and straight twords me. When it hit I was thrown back into another wall, and when I opened my eyes I saw the human above me, sword raised.
"All of Alduiin's allies must die," he said monotonly. I looked up at him shaking with fear. He was about to bring the sword down when suddenly.
"GRRRROOOOOOAAAAAAARRRRR!" A roar that I knew all to well tore through the air and the human recoiled. He looked around, but then froze when he heard, "FUS RO DA!" Another pulse of energy him and he was knocked into the air and into another building. I looked up to see my savior decending. Alduiin.
Dan's POV
I landed on the ground and watched as my sworn enemy regained his stance. I looked to Twilight and asked "Are you ok?"
"I'll be fine," She replied, "but do you know who that is?"
"Yes," I replied, "I know him very well. He is the Dovahkiin, the Dragonborn!"
The dovakin murders innocent ponies Rip him to shreds Dan!!!!!!
5986598 Don't worry I'll make sure the Dovakiin gets what he deserves, but it might take awhile
Dan: WHAT! I'MA KILL HIM NOW!
Dan if you killed him right now then their would be no story.
Dan: Fine! Whatever!
5986039 Because I'm sneaky like that.
5986941 Again I didn't get a notification.
.... *facepalms* I had thought you would change that without my prompting.... Right now you have two chapters labeled as chapter four. I think you need to change the one I edited to chapter five, unless you'd rather stay stuck on chapter four for the rest of the fic
5987266 What did I just say? I'm sneaky like that. And I am too beautiful to be notified about.
5987623 HA! I got one about that comment.
5987695 Oh no! My beauty showed through this time!
*No lies now*
Pleased to hear about that
5987284 Oh woops I'll change that when I can
5987965 i know this is completely out of the story line but what if alduiin (Dan) gains the power of schrodinger from Hellsing ultimate?
Also if your wondering what schrodinger's power is here's a hint
"everywhere and nowhere"
And
Immortality
5989892 Probably not because Alduiin from skyrim doesn't have that power. Sorry.
5990157 aw well that sucks but hey the story is good. Plus try imagining a dragon that can basically teleport everywhere he wants to be and all he has to do is think he's at that place and Walla he's there
5990227 Well if I could give him the power I would.
Also I do need an answer to this question. Is everyone ok with Twilight being a love intrest for Dan? I wanna be sure now so it doesn't scres up the story later.
5991243 Yea his voice is normal and my editor should remind me on how to correctly spell the names from now on
and thus begins the vocal battle
I know my Skyrim Character is a bit different then others, he likes giving people chances... But killing innocents is on his list of things to kill people for doing... That Dovakiin would have a difficult time I know that for one.
6002726 Heh. Yours wouldn't like one of mine, either. XD Then again, she (my Skyrim character) wouldn't like this zealot one bit... and SHE'S a Thief and Assassinating Archer.
That is completely wrong. In fact, to use the Thu'um you don't even need to use Dovahzul. It is far more effective with Dovahzul, though. The Greybeards, for example, use the Thu'um.
Alduiin's mind, destroyed? Seriously? Didn't his soul specifically not get consumed by the Dragonborn? Wait a minute, what happens to dragon souls the Dragonborn uses?
6164917 but to be fair, a god specifically granted the races of men and mir the power to use Thu'um.
5990468 I'm fine with it. Also gives Spike a good dragon role model.
oooooh i knew there wouldn´t happen much befor he actually would attack, four chapters, three Villains......
5987266 it happens to me to, no one told me anything about it till now, either no one knows, or no one wants to tell.
sometimes i suddenly have three chapters at once, and two are three months old.
5990468 no problem with that, but i don´t need a mighty Spike, he is just not my favourite, and i never liked it if the Characters suddenly started to use powers they wasn´t able to use. I think i can´t say much to Spike and Alduin, but it should at least not be easy for a Baby Dragon, no matter how smart he is.
Don´t tell me Twilight was able to use a power she could probably never use, in less than a few minutes.
Gave it a shot but I can't take the writing anymore.
That is no where near the truth the dragur who were once human can shout and they dont have a soul of a dragon, the greybeards can shout and they dont have a dragon soul the ebony warrior can shout and he doesn't have a dragon soul. The reason why the dovahkin's shout is so strong is because he has the soul of a dragon which puts his thu'um on scale of a real dragon while having a dragon soul makes your thu'um stronger you dont need it to shout
That escalated quickly.
Endlessly cringing at the fast paced and minimal detail. Also signature "gguurrrahhh" is cheesier that Chysalis's leg holes
6419006 Not to mention the fact that in ancient times, from the end of the Dragon War to possibly well into the First Era itself the Nords had warriors called the Tongues that could "shout down walls". This is mentioned multiple times in Skyrim. In the temple where you get Rahgot's mask, the General who laid siege to the crypt mentioned having one called in specifically to break down the Cultists' barrier.
Also, to the author, dude...give us detail.
If you're going to switch PoV so much, you might as well just switch to a 3rd person limited/omniscient point of view so you don't waste space putting " ----- POV".
And for your "favorite villain in a video game" you sure do misspell the World Eater's name a lot. His name is ALDUIN not ALDUIIN. AL DU IN.
