From Spartan to Alicorn Spartan

by Kurookumera

Chapter 2

I've been wandering for 3 days since arriving on this planet. I found out that I can use quite a few abilities other than what my armor came with. For example, I had jumped off a cliff as a short cut only for my thrusters to fail. I locked my armor for the impact but when I hit the ground, my shields took no damage, and I was encased in a bubble of sorts. Now back to the current time. I only have 10 magnum mags, 15 assault rifle mags, and an energy sword that seems to charge itself without affecting my armor. I take off my armor and let out a sigh as I inhale the fresh air.

Of course, I didn't let my guard down, but an animal seems to think that I did. I roll out of the way as manticore pounced on the position I was on. "Damn, you're an ugly bastard aintcha?" The creature roared at me as its tail darted towards me. I jumped to the side, raised my wings, and sliced through its tail causing blood to spew out from the new hole. It roars in pain before taking a swipe at me. I duck under and flap my wings as hard as I can while throwing a punch at its chest, taking me and the manticore into the air. I then use my thrusters to slam it into the ground. It writhes on the ground for a few minutes with blood coming out of its mouth before dying. Curious as to how it died, I start checking its body. I had shattered its entire skeletal structure and some bone hit the lungs. I shouldn't have this sort of power, but I do. Something to brag about, I guess. I drink water out of my canteen and refill it before washing the blood off my armor.

Another few days of wandering through the planet and I reach a city full of ponies and ones with wings with their head held to the sky. They seem rather snooty. Then I see one talking to what seems like a guard and they point at me. Perhaps they're bitchy too. The guard approaches me and asks, "Excuse me but I'm going to need you to remove your weapons and armor." I had to look down at them because I'm rather tall. About 9 to 10 feet tall.

"No can-do soldier. It's not possible to remove this armor without special equipment."

"You sound like you serve in the military. What's your rank?"

"General."

"General? My bad sir. But I'm going to at least need you to take off your helmet. It's making the civilians uncomfortable."

"Alright." I twist the helmet and with a hiss, it comes off.

"You're an alicorn? Are you a prince?!" his gaze goes over my broken horn. "Dear Celestia, what happened to your horn!?!" he wore an expression of horror.

"Battle." I'm guess that's what it is from how it looks.

"How are you holding out without using magic?"

"Doin just fine soldier." Perhaps that's what that bubble was when I fell. "I'm not from around here so I'd like to visit your library. Do you have one?"

"Yes sir. Follow me."

He leads me to a rather fancy building, and I didn't really think it was a library till I went inside. He went on his way as I set my helmet down and began reading. This city is called Canterlot. and the planet is called Equis. the region is Equestria and the current queens are Celestia and Luna. Alot of civilians whispered about my appearance as I continued with the reading. Apparently, I was too focused on my reading because when I looked up, the Princess was right in front of me. "Hello ma'am. Something you need from me?".

"I'm going to need you to come with me." she doesn't sound like someone that should be ruler. Too kind and naive.

I put my helmet on and follow her. She leads me to a castle, and we end up in a large room with a big dining table. Princess Luna is also here sitting at a table. She sits down and looks at me expecting to follow suit. The bad part is that these chairs don't look industrial strength. I slowly sit on the chair and hear it creak, then I immediately abandoned the idea and sat on the floor. "Something wrong?" She asks me.

"This armor weighs about 2 tons. I'm afraid that your chairs aren't for Spartans."

They both look shocked. "Spartan. Is that what a ruler where you come from?" Luna asks.

"No. All I can tell you about Spartans is that we are a super soldiers meant for war."

"What war?" Celestia asks.

"I'm guessing you haven't even heard rumors. It's a war for survival that's been going on for more than 50 years."

. . .

"Can you tell us more?" Luna asks.

"No. It isn't something you want to know. This was the most gruesome war ever. I lost a lot of men during my time in deployment." I say as I take off my helmet. Luna looks at my horn in disbelief.

"What are men? Also, can you tell us what happened to your horn?" Celestia is already used to the sight of my broken horn since she witnessed it first.

"Another term for soldiers and a battle. I lost it in a fight."

"Against whom?" Luna asks.

"An officer. That rank may sound low but it's the highest for the covenant elite." Food was brought in. Actual food. Haven't eaten real food in a good long while so I immediately dig in. I swallow my food and say, "I can't tell you any more than that though. Sorry."

"Well, you're an alicorn like us. That makes you a prince even if your horn is broken. Whats your name?"

I once again swallow my food and stand up. "I'm Sierra General KSW. Or General Karma, Call sign, 'Saw Wolf'." I finish with a Salute.
