A Soldier Past and Future

by Norwegian boy

Meeting The Princess Of The Night

Dead bodies lay on the ground, everywhere. Luna walked through what look like a mass grave, she could she dead ponies everywhere, it made her sick in her stomach. ‘Who could dream such thing?’ She thought as she walked through the dream of the pony, she had never seen anything like this before in her lives. She then came to a pony she had seen before; Blaze Fury. He was sitting on the ground surrounded by dead body, he was holding a unicorn I his arms but she couldn’t see the ponies face.

Blaze was holding the pony and screaming, Luna tried to hear what he was screaming but for some reason she couldn’t hear him. ‘What’s wrong with my magic? Why can’t I hear him?’ She thought as she watch Blaze. Then all of sudden he stopped, he then started to look around. ‘Does he know I’m here? No, that’s impossible. I should be invisible.’ Blaze then got up.

“Alright, who is here? Show yourself.”

Blaze then stared to walk around, looking for culprit. ‘How can he know that I’m here?’ Luna started to get nervous.

Blaze stopped walking. “If you don’t want to show yourself, then I will force you out.” He then closed his eyes and when he did Luna felt a powerful pulse coming from him.

When Luna felt pulse, she could fell that she was losing control, somehow Blaze was pushing her out from the dream. ‘How is he doing this? He is pushing me out from the dream.’ As soon she thought that she was pushed out from the dream and she was back in her room.

Blaze woke up in his bed, breathing heavily. He looked around and notice that he was back into the room he was sleeping in, he looked at the clock on the nightstand and saw that it was 4:30 am. ‘Who the hell was in my dream?’ He closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths to calm himself. ‘Calm down Blaze, who can go into pony’s dreams like that.’ There was only on pony who could, he opened his eyes and he was pissed off. “Nightmare Moon.” He got up from the bed and walk to the door, he opened it and disappeared.

Luna was sitting on her bed trying to catch her breath. ‘How did he do that? No one has ever managed to push me out from a dream before.’ She was about to get but then she felt a hand on her neck and before she could react she was pinned against the wall, she tried to remove the hand but it was too strong. She saw who it was and when she saw the anger in the eyes of the pony she became afraid, very afraid. It was Blaze.

“Well, Well. Is it not Nightmare Moon? I should have known that you would poke into my dream.” He brought her closer so they were face to face. “I’m only going to say this once; Stay the hell out of my dream, if I see you in my dreams one more time you are going find out what happened when I really get mad. Do I make myself clear?” Luna tried to say something but his hand was too tight, she barely managed to nod. “I don’t care that you are the princess of the night, I never gave you premission to enter my dream. From now on, stay the hell out of them.”

He let go of her and she land on the floor trying to regain her breath, she looked up and she saw that he was gone already. She leaned against the wall, pulled her legs closer to her chest and stared to cry. She was afraid, really afraid.

Celestia was walking toward the dining room with a with a smile on her face, she has a good week so far. Blaze, a friend from the past was alive and came back yesterday and now, now she was on her way to eat breakfast with her sister and one of her best friend.

She opened the doors to the dining room, when she entered she walked into a room that could fit forty guests. ‘Why did I make it so big?’ She just shrugged it off, she looked for her sister who was usually in the dining room before her. She looked at where her sister was usually sitting but she wasn’t there, she couldn’t see Blaze either. ‘That’s weird, where are they?’ She then saw one of the servant come into the room. “Excuse me.” The servant looked Celestia. “Has my sister eaten already?”

The servant shook her head. “No, your highness, no one has seen her.”

Celestia nodded. “What about Blaze Fury, has he been her?” The servant shook her head. “Thank you.” The servant bowed and walked to the kitchen. Celestia stood there scratching her head. ‘I wonder where Luna could be, maybe she is still in her room. I better go and check on her. I’ll talk to Blaze afterwards.’ She stared to walk towards her sister room.

When she arrived at the doors to her sister room she could see two guards who was bat ponies standing there, they saluted. “Is my sister in her room?” She asked the two guards.

They lowered their hand. “Yes, your highness, she hasn’t left her room yet.” Said one of the guards.

Celestia open the door and walked in, it was pitch black inside. Celestia light her horn so she could see better. “Luna? Are you here?” She didn’t get any answer, instead she heard crying. “Luna?” She lit up the room with her magic and she saw her sister siting on the floor with her back against the wall, crying. “Luna.” Celestia ran over to her sister. “Are you okay?” She asked in a concern voice.

Before Celestia could do anything, Luna grabbed her in a hug. Celestia wrapped her arms around her crying sister.

“He is very scary.” Luna managed to say between the tears.

“Who is scary?” Celestia asked her.

“Blaze Fury.” Luna said in a shaking tone.

When Celestia heard that she knew what had happened. “You went into his dream, didn’t you?” Luna nodded, Celestia sighed. “I should have warned you, he doesn’t like magic very much.”

Luna looked up at her sister. “What do you mean? Shouldn’t I have gone into his dream?”

“I don’t know the details, but something happened to Blaze when I was little that made him dislike magic, I should have warned you about entering his dream.”

“But, I’m the princess of the night. It’s my duty to watch over ponies when they sleep.”

“I know Luna, but is possible you can ignore Blaze? As I said, he doesn’t like magic that much. Can you do that for me?” Celestia hope that her sister would listen to her.

Luna thought about it and… “Alright Tia, I won’t do it again.” That made Celestia smile. “Just answer this question; How did he notice me in the dream? Ponies usually don’t notice me. He even managed to push me out of the dream.”

Celestia blink a couple of times. “That I don’t know, I’m not an expert on dreams.” She looked at Luna. “Don’t you know?”

Luna shook her head. “I have never experienced anything like that before.”

Celestia tape her cheek. “I could ask him, but I doubt he will give me an answer.”

“Don’t worry about it.” They let go each other and stood up. “I don’t want to know.” Luna walked over to her bed and lay down. “I just want to be alone for now.” She grabbed her pillow and hold it close to her chest.

Celestia just looked at her sister, she didn’t like to her like this. ‘Time to have a talk with Blaze.’ She walked out her sister room and headed to Blaze’s room. Once arriving she didn’t see any guard which was good, she knock on the door but got no answer. “I know you’re in their Blaze, we need to talk about what you did to my sister.” She still got no answer. “I’m going in.” She opened the door and what she saw was Blaze in the middle of the room meditating.

What really caught her attention was that he was hovering in the air and his wings was standing out, she saw that he was a couple inches from the floor. ‘How does he do that?’ She walked to the bed and sat down on it, he just watched him as he meditate.

“Is there something I can help you with Celestia?” He asked her.

That made her jump a little. “Yes, I want to talk you about your visit to my sister.”

“There’s nothing to talk about, she enter my dream without my permission.” He said while hovering.

“She the princess of the night, it’s her duty to go into ponies when they have nightmares.”

Blaze opened his eyes and he did not look happy. “Her duty? I don’t care that it’s her duty, she went into my dream without my permission. I don’t care that she is the princess of the night, nopony goes into my dream without my permission.” He closed his eyes again. “You can be glad that I didn’t hurt her.”

“I’m glad you didn’t.” Celestia felt guilty not to have warned her sister, at least he didn’t hurt her.

“Good, is there something else you want?”

“Yes.” Celestia moved her arm behind her back and took out a book she had behind her. “Here’s your book, I have keep it safe all this time. Your sister told me to do it.” She handed the book to Blaze, he took it. “And I was hoping you would have breakfast with me.”

He shook his head. “No thanks, after what your sister did I’ve have lost my appetite.” He put the book on the floor.

“That’s too bad, I was hoping we go to the bank after breakfast. I guess is just me eating alone.” She got up. “You scared my sister pretty bad.”

Blaze did move. “If you are trying to make me feel bad for what I did, it’s not going to work.”

“I know, I know you very well Blaze.”

Celestia stared to walk to the door. “No, you don’t.” That made her stop for a second, she opened the door and walked out from the room. “See you at the main hall after breakfast.” He said as she walked out. Once outside she looked at door and smiled, she was happy that Blaze was fine, but she also remembers that he has a very cocky attitude.

Canterlot castle four hundred and six years ago.

Celestia stood on a balcony looking down at the training field, one of her captains was standing in front of some new recruits. There were three earth ponies, four unicorns and one pegasus, none of the stood out from where she was standing. She but her arms on the railing to get a better look. ‘I don’t think any of them would fit as my personal guard.’ She was brought out of her thought by the captain shouting.

“Listen up maggots, for the next six months I own your sorry asses.” The captain stared to walked in front of them. “If you all think that this is going to be easy, you are all wrong. I’m going to make it my mission to make you all cry for your mommy, you will find no mercy from me.” The captain looked over the recruits and notice that the pegasus was smiling, almost laughing. The captain walked over to the peagsus. “Is there something you find funny maggot?” He asked the pegasus.

The pegasus had almost troubling answering him, not because he was afraid but because he found the captain funny. “I’m sorry sir, but I just think it’s funny that you are supposed to inspire the new guard not frighten them.”

The captain was now right in his face. “You better watch your mouth maggot, or I’m going to make your stay here a living hell.”

“Sorry sir, I have experience living hell almost all my life. You are a little too late on that part.”

That was the last straw for the captain, he made a fist with his right hand and tried to punch the pegasus, but the punch went right through the pegasus. All the recruits were in shook when they saw what happened, even the captain was shook. But the on how was most in shook was Celestia.

She just stared at the pegasus as the captain tried to punch the pegasus again. ‘What is going on? He’s not a unicorn or alicorn, so how does he managed to create a after image of himself?’ She was brought out of her thoughts when someone spoke.

“Your captain is an asshole.” Said the new voice.

“I know, I have been meaning to fire him but his good as his job.” Celestia looked at the pony who was talking to her and boy she got a shook when she saw who it was, it was the pegasus who the captain was trying to punch. She looked at training field, the captain was still trying to punch the after image, she then looked at the peagsus beside her and then back to the training field. “How are you doing that?” She asked the pegasus.

He just snorted. “Wouldn’t you like to know.” He leaned against the railing and looked down at the captain who was still trying to hit the pegasus. “Should we tell him that he’s trying to hit an illusion?” The pegasus asked Celestia.

Celestia also leaned against the railing to watch the show. “No, not just yet.” She looked over to the pegasus. “What’s is your name by the way?”

“It’s Blaze Fury.”

Canterlot castle present day.

Celestia couldn’t help but smile the day she met Blaze for the first day, then her stomach stared to make a noise. “Breakfast sound good right about now.” She decided to head to the dinning room to get some breakfast.

After breakfast Celestia walked to the main hall too meet up with Blaze, once she arrived she could see Blaze leaning against the wall with his eyes closed.

She walked over to him. “Did you wait long?” She asked him.

He opened his eyes. “No, I arrived like five minutes ago.”

Celestia gave him a smile. “Good, shall we go?” He just gave her a nod.

They were about to leave when Shining Armor enter the hall with some guards. “Princess Celestia, may I ask where you are going?”

“I’m going the Canterlot bank with Blaze, is there a problem with that?” She asked Shining.

“Yes, I want to know why you didn’t alert me, so I could assign guard to escort you through Canterlot.”

“Because captain Shining Armor, I don’t need your guards. I feel safe with Blaze.”

Shining looked at Blaze who was just standing there with his arm crossed, he looked like he was bored. Shining had his doubts that Blaze could actually protect her.

“With all respect your highness, are you sure you want to put your life in him?” Those words cot Blaze to react a little.

“Yes, I’m sure. I trust Blaze with my life.”

Shining was still not convinced. “But, princess Celestia. He’s only one pegasus and I don’t think he’s taking his job seriously.”

“Excuse me?” They all looked over to Blaze and he was not happy. “I’m not taking my job seriously? I might have been away for over four hundred years, but I can do better job than your guards.”

“What’s that supposed to mean?” Shining asked him with anger in his voice.

“It means.” Blaze walked towards Shining. “That I can take an order from Celestia and do them without hesitation.” He was now face to face with Armor. “Your guards can’t take an order and do it, like yesterday. They hesitated, you hesitated. They are Celestia’s guards and they are not supposed to hesitated.”

Shining pressed his face against Blaze. “What’s your mouth, I trained this guards myself.”

“I know, Celestia said that yesterday and you did a crappy job.”

Right now, was Shining pissed off. No one was allowed to talk to him like that, his horn stared to glow. Celestia who was standing on the side line knew exactly what was going to happened and she had to stop it.

“Shining Armor, stand down this instant.”

Shining looked at the princess with shocked expression. “Your highness, why are you doing?”

She walked over to him and she was pissed off. “Do you have some issue in obeying my orders?” He shook his head. “Apparently you have, I told you to stand down and I expect you to follow my orders.” His horn stop glowing, and he took a few steps back. “Now, I’m going to say this only one time. I’m leaving the castle with Blaze and only Blaze, I don’t need any other guards because I trust him with my life. Is that understand captain Shining Armor.” He gave her a nod. “Good, when I get back you and I are going to have a long talk when it’s comes to obeying my orders.” She turned around and stared to walked to the exit, while Shining was standing there very scared.

Blaze was watching the hole thing followed her. “That was impressive, you never did that four hundred years ago.”

Celestia just snorted. “Back then I had no problem with disobeying soldiers.”

Blaze scratched his head. “I guess not.” Then his stomach growled, he put both of his hands on his stomach. “Dame, this is what happened when you don’t eat breakfast.”

Celestia couldn’t help but laugh. “Come on, I buy you a hayburger.” She opened the doors to the castle and walked out.

Blaze just stood there, confused. “What the hell is hayburger?” He followed the princess.
