Black Hailstorm


A never-ending storm of ideas

T

A thousand years ago a small group of humans lead by a man known as Chief Kaliver or Silver Caliber inadvertently stumble into the world of Equestria. In his attempt to escape his old enemy and all the chaos and pain of the human world,Caliber ends up leading his friends and family into the end of another battle between two alicorns. As Caliber slowly makes his way out of the river that transported them to the world of Equestria, they all become a witness to the banishment and sealing of Princess Luna in the moon. Another surprise soon arrives with Vindictive and his minions following Caliber and co. into the now ruined castle of two sisters.

A thousand years later, now the present time a direct descendant of Silver Caliber is on earth and has spent most of his life living a normal human life, however this all changes 6 or so months after his 18th birthday, where he begins to have these strange dreams. Dreams of an alternate universe consisting of sentient unicorns, pegasi and earth ponies. In these dreams he witness a unicorn called Twilight Sparkle and her friends face many challenges, and eventually he sees Twilight reach her accession to royalty on her own.

Yet at the same time he seems to have memories that seem to be completely unrelated to the maine 6 and their adventures. These dreams are of a alicorn emerging out of the river and the banishment of Princess Luna. As the weeks slowly turn into months, the dreams or even images are starting to become more frequent and no longer filled Hailstorm with the same apathy he had before, they have begun to take their toll on him.

No matter how many times he asks his family they refuse to tell him anything, always pushing his questions aside stating "It was just a dream" but he knows that there's more to it. Every few months a mirror that was given to his ancestors is put in their basement and since childhood no one both in or outside of the family has been allowed to touch it except the elders. What is it they refuse to tell him? Does that mirror lead to another world? And what don't they want him to know?

Prologue is in the wrong spot.

I kinda realized that I'm honestly not sure how to fix it

Might have to scrap it and re do it just save what you've typed on a notepad doc.

6420160

I'll try doing that cuz it did bug me how the Prologue came after the first chapter. Hopefully no one thinks I did that on purpose

Well I might as well ask while I have the chance here but what do you think of the story so far? Thought, comments?

Well I haven't quite read the story yet...:twilightblush:
Soo i'll get back to you on that.

This story confuses me?
It seems like two stories in one. And the plot cuts off on one and moves onto the other for the other 'story'. Leaving the reader confused....
Otherwise it's pretty good.

6421292 Understandable but I'll have the whole thing explained soon enough and it'll make sense why there are two stories that are so connected

Why does this not have a human tag?

You'll find out why as you keep reading the story.

Silver Caliber looked up just in time to see a white alicorn shoot a beam of light at another alicorn clad in dark armor and magic. (—— The beam of light completely enveloped the dark alicorn before she seemed to turn into energy and shoot off towards the moon.

“What the hell was that?” One of the younger colts said thinking out loud only to be have their muzzles covered by the older stallions.

Obviously he hadn’t been the only one watching it; (—— his allies had seen the entire thing and most of them stood there all with their mouth agape.

“Kali-” he was cut off.(——

“Please just call me Caliber.(——” He said to Script still sitting on the ground.

“Right, of course.(——” Script cleared his throat before speaking again. “Caliber, what should we do”?

It should be obvious what our next step is.(——

“And whatever these symbols are on our flanks,(——” she continued.

Script joined in also at this point. “Nor do we know where we are or what we just witnessed,(——” he said cautiously.

“W-we’re sorry Caliber,(——” one of the stallions said within the group before another awkward silence washed over them. “W-we’re all just a little anxious is all,(——” the same stallion spoke again.

Caliber let out a theatrical sigh. “It’s alright,(——” he said. “Let’s just go,(——” he said and with that he trotted past everypony else once again taking the leading position. “Let’s go meet this new pers- pony of ours.(——”

I’ve had enough of your sass.(—— "Don't forget we are doing things my way, Straight Forward,(——" he stated a slight smirk creasing his lips as he said Sebastian's nickname.

“We are going to find Caliber and end him!!(——” he said raising a hoof, shaking it in anger.

“And how come I don’t have wings or a horn?(——” he asked slightly annoyed.

and if he saw that thing,(——” he said the last bit in a harsher tone more than necessary. “Then he’s bound to be there.(——”

“She’s not moving,(——” Script whispered.(—— “Go talk to her you’re a gentleman after all,(——” he nudged the alicorn in the ribs.

“E-excuse me,(——” he tried again speaking a bit louder.

“I-I’m sorry I simply,(——” he paused although he was right behind her he could see tears falling to the ground.

“I- I am so sorry,(——” he said just now reading the mood.Smooth move Caliber I believe I’ve practically made a bad impression by being so rude. Clearing his throat, before speaking he said “I apologize for interrupting you, perhaps I should come again later,(——” he said as he began to return to his group.

“I..I apologize for my reaction. I had not expected there to be anypony in the vicinity during the battle,(——” she said staring at the scattered pieces of debris around the fallen castle.

“Hm? Oh yes well you are in Equestria,(——” she said absentmindedly. “You should know since you are one of us,(——” she paused. “Well one of our own,(——” she said her voice tone dropping as she glanced back at the sky.

“Well, Well well,(——” it said,(—— “Silver Caliber what a coincidence to have met you here,(——” the goldish-brown alicorn appeared from the opposite side of the castle.

Vindictive said with a snort,(—— “Let’s get this little reunion over with shall we?”

Seeing a chance to poke some fun he intentionally said “More beautiful than in my dreams”, which to his amusement in turn earned the embarrassed smile of the older sister and a slight blush from Luna.

Edit: Corrected errors.

:rainbowlaugh: Not with punctuation!!

Just what on earth is happening to me?[/ i] I used to have much more integrity than this. The very thought that I would steal from a child just to save my own skin was something that I would’ve kicked myself for ever even thinking of, let alone acting on.

“A diplomat is a person who can tell you to go to hell in a way you actually look forward to the trip.”

Pfffff :rainbowlaugh:

Turning on her heel, the siren continued to lead the way, “You coming or what?” she asked the two watching her leave.

by her nerves being off the fritz gave her the urge to hit something,

“Wait, but why would you buy the Alicorn Amulet?” Sonata asked.

became focused as he stared at the jewelry boxes.

silenced from saying any further by both her sisters as

The three sisters nodded.

All I knew was that this entire ordeal had been just one giant nightmare, as we waited for Celestia’s verdict.

“Good,”(—— she said. Before taking in another breath and exhaling again.

Is there a sequel to this?
