> Chapter 1: My Date Knows My Secret? ( Edited 5/28/20 )
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Okay, were do I start? Well, how about we start off with my name? My name is Eddie Russ and I am a brony. 

Yeah, I know what were thinking, "Are you really a brony?" well, yes I really am. I have been watching My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic from Season 1 Through Season 5 and I gotta say, I LOVE THIS SHOW. ( Clears Throat ) Sorry. Anyways, I wanna tell you a little secret. You wanna hear it? You do? Okay, I'll tell you, sometimes I wish I was in Equestria. 

I'm not joking that's what my secret is, to live in Equestria. Now, I know that most of you will be telling me that it doesn't exist. Well' you are dead wrong about it. It really does exist. In fact, I am in Equestria. Unfortunately, I didn't get to be a pony I got turn into something else.

I can't tell you what I am yet, but maybe I'll tell you who sent me here. This is gonna get you jealous and shock when I tell you who. So let's start off with my "dinner” with my "Blind Date.” Buckle up, folks, this is gonna blow your mind.

---------------------------------------------------------

I was just sitting there alone at the table in a fancy restaurant waiting for my blind date to come. I just hope she's not late because I got myself dress for the ocassion. A waiter walks up to me, holding a glass of wine. 

"More wine, sir?" He ask, lowering the bottle a bit.

"Yeah," was all I said. He poured it on my glass and leaves. I was about to drink it when I heard a woman's voice in front of me. 

"You seem to like wine," My eyes went wide as I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I put my glass down and look over at the women in front of me.

Now my eyes were wide and my jaws drop when I saw the woman in front of me. She was quite well slim and firm. She seems to be the same height as me, her hair was long and black, her eyes were blue and she was wearing a dark blue dress with a cercent moon and a black splotch around it to make it look like night time on the side of her dress. 

I remain speechless because I just can't believe my blind date would be so hot. I mean seriously hot. She looks like Juivia from Fairy Tail. She giggled at my expression. "My name is Luna. What's your name?"

"Ed-Eddie," I said, finally finding my voice. "Are you my blind date?"

"Indeed I am. You did wanted a blind date did you not?" It was true, I wanted to date a girl. I never had one in my life until now. Fun fact, women are tough but fair as well as smart and beautiful like mine. Plus, her name is Luna. Yes, you heard me, her name is Luna which sounds very familiar to me.

"I do," I answered. "You are just one fantastic woman and you know that? I mean look at you! You are a gem." 

This got her to giggle at my statement. Yeah, I'm good with pick up lines.

I took a sip of my drink before Luna ask me a question. "Eddie, are you a brony?" 

That one made me spit out my wine and cough a bit. I look at her with a shock look on my face. 'Did she ask me if I'm a brony?' I thought to myself.

She smiled at me despite my shock. "I take it that you are one."

I couldn't believe what she just said. "How did you-"

She just cuts me off by shushing me. "Let's just say that I happen to know these things like my sister," She has a sister? Damn, I gotta meet her someday.

"So, I'm guessing your a fan of the show too right?" I ask.

"You could say that," Luna replies with a smirk on her face.

Luna gave me a serious look, not the "angry serious" look but more like a "important serious" look. I don't know what this was about but I think she might be a cop. "You don't have to be afraid of me for I'm not here to hurt you."

That made me sigh for relief only for her to lean in close to my face about six inches. "I want you to kiss me."

I raised in eyebrow in confusion. "Wait, really? You want me to kiss you even after you ask me if I'm a brony?" 

She started to frown. "Is there a problem?" she ask, in a bit of anger. 

"No! No, problem at all. I'll kiss you only because you are beautiful." I said, shaking my head in defense. 

This got her to smile again after I answer her question. I was so glad that works, otherwise she would have smack me in the cheeks. She didn't say anything as she motions me to kiss her on the lips. Which I did. We started kissing for like seven second and then my head was starting to feel heavy. I feel like I wanna lay down on a bed. 

I started to now get sleepy and I was laying down on the table, taking a nap.
> Chapter 2: I'm a Lizard? ( Edited in 5/28/20 )
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

I woke up and got up as I felt a minor headache on my head. My vision was blurry for a second before it was becoming more clear. 

I look at the scenery and I notice that I was in a cave. A dark cave to be correct. I look around to see some light but I couldn't. I wanted to see everything, this is bullshit. I then see a shiny blue light coming towards me as I shielded myself. 

The blue light stops and the glow fades abit as it transforms into none other then Princess Luna.

"Greetings," she said in her most friendly voice. "I am Princess Luna, The Princess of the Night."

What the hell? My eyes were shock and excited as my favorite Princess was standing in front of me with a smile. If Luna is here, then that means I am in Equestria. This is the greatest day of my life. "Wow, is it really you, Princess Luna?" I ask but something was off, like WAY off. My voice sounded different. I sounded like Yakko from The  Animainaics. 

Okay, my voice is not suppose to sound like that. My voice was gruff but now it's different. I started to scratch my head, but then I felt something scaly. I look at my hands, but it was to dark for me to see in the cave. Princess Luna rolls hers and use her horn to brighten the place more.

Her magic was bright enough for me to see well. I look at my hands and see that they were lizard-like hands. I widen my eyes more as I look at the rest of my body and to my horror, my whole body was covered in green scales. I'm a dragon? My muzzle was lizard shape as well as small spines on the middle of my head like they were a mohawk. I look at my backside and saw that I don't have wings. Plus, I'm wearing armor which is unexpected for me. Well, it was a good thing I'm fully clothes.

I turned to Princess Luna, "What happen to me!?" I shouted in horror looking at myself.

"You have become an Argonian," she replied matter of factly.

'Argonian!? Like the one from Skyrim!?' I thought to myself. I’m very surprised at this very new development. "Did you say argonian!?" I ask, only for her to nodded her head.

I Stand completely still waiting for my brain to process

Loading....

Loading....

Loading....

Loading....

Loading....

and then I started to scream and run around like a lunatic. 

"ENOUGH!" Princess Luna stomped her hoof causing me to stop and look at her with a horrified look. 

She cleared her throat to speak. "Now, Listen carefully and listen well. I was the one who sent you here. The woman you were "dating" was me."

Wait, that was Princess Luna? Well, that explains the voice. Then again, she is hot as a human. Luna continued. "Yes, I was your blind date and before you ask, yes I am real and so is Equis."

Equis? Well that's a name I'll never forget. "Why did you sent me here?" I ask, not sure where this was going. I mean I did wish to be in Equestria, but like this?

"I sent you here to be part of a game called The Chess Games of The Gods. You are not the only one here for there are more humans who were sent here by their gods to play their roles. Your role is to spread the word of Queen Chrysalis’ return who will no doubt invade Equestria and you must also form an army to join you in a battle that will yet to come and save the day."

Queen Chrysalis is coming back? If what she says is true then I'm up for it. I hate Queen Chrysalis because of what she did to Princess Celestia, Twilight Sparkle and anyone else that I like.

I raise my hand in question. "Why do I have to fight Queen Chrysalis and get an army?" 

"Because Argonians and Changelings are natural enemies in Equis. They don't like each other. The Changelings and Argonians have been enemies since the dawn of time," She said, grimly.

I guess this makes sense since lizards eats bugs. "Do ponies know about Agonians?" I ask, hoping that they do.

She shook her head. "I don't think so. They have never seen or heard of them since they are descret about being exposed to ponykind. They feared that they may not like them as they did with the Changelings. Most of the Argonians live in Black Marsh. Well, they use to. You see a long time ago, they once live in froggy bottom bogs in a small village before their village was attack by Changelings. The Argonians tried to fight back, but they were no match for their shapeshifting powers. The Argonian king name leafblade fought Queen Chrysalis to a dual. However, she bested him and killed him with her horn."

Damn, that's brutal.

"After there king was killed, the Argonians or at least half of them were force to leave their home and must find a new home. They soon stumble upon a village called Black Marsh and where greeted by creatures who took kindly to them. The king of Black Marsh sees the Argonians and notice sad look on their faces. He didn't want to kick them out, so he decided to let them live here much to their relief and joy. The Argonains were getting along well with other creatures and they felt much safer."

I raise an eyebrow. "And where is Black Marsh?"

"It is located in the swamps on the farside of Froggy Bottom Bogs. But I must warn you that going by hoof or in your in case foot is a long trip so you must find some pony to join you and guide you before you go there. Now before I leave, I must tell you what Argonians can do."

I began to listen to what she was gonna tell me about the powers of an Argonian. "First, they can breath in underwater for a very long time. Argonains can even swim faster then any other sea creature they encounter, they can stay in the water for a long period a time. second, they are immune to poison. If anything deadly effects you, you should be fine as Argonians can resist to any types of poison but poison joke. Poison joke is the only thing that can affect Argonians and thirdly they can heal themselves much ten times faster than any other creatures using Histskin, but you can only use it once per day."

Wow, so I can breath underwater, be immune to poison but poison joke and can only heal myself one time a day huh? Well, that shouldn't be a problem. She spread her wings out as if she is about to leave. "Wait, aren't you gonna join me?"

Princess Luna shook her head. "I can't. The rules of this game doesn't allow me to go on adventures with my piece. However, I will see you again when you go to sleep."

"Okay, I guess that's out of the question. Say, Princess Luna, how come you didn't turn me into a pony?" I ask, while looking at my body and then back at her.

"It is also against the rules to turn their piece into a pony. I if did turn you into one, I'll be disqualified and you will be either be sent back to earth or stay here forever," She sigh sadly. "Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go to the waking world. You should be waking up right about now."

Well that sucks. Luna can't turn me into a pony because it's against the rules in the game.

Before I ask what she was talking about, I started to feel the world being melted away.

"What about you?"

"I must head back to canterlot for I must have royal duties to attend," She then flew off and vanish into thin air.

I started to feel like I’m waking up as I felt something pushing me. What the hell is pushing me?
> Chapter 3: A Friendly Changeling? ( Edited 5/29/20 )
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

I open my eyes, only to come face to face with a changeling.  A CHANGELING!? I jump up, making the thing jump up in fright. I got into my fighting stance so I can fight it. "Alright, changeling, I'm gonna kick your ass so hard you won't be feeding off-" I trailed off and look at the way the changeling coward in fear. "Uhh...What are you doing?"

The changeling didn't respond. "Hey! I ask you a question. Answer me!" I really hate it when people don't answer my questions, it just really ticks me off, a lot. I walk up close to the changeling, but it goes up against a wall. This one is really a pansy.

"Please, don't hurt me. I just wanna share love not take it," I raise my eyebrow at what it just said.

'Did it say it wants to share love and why does it sound like a male?’ I thought with confusion. I look closely at the changeling and notice something different. It was indeed a male I don’t know how I guess it I just did. His backside is green instead of blue as well as his eyes. What strikes me is that his wings were whole and not ripped up or anything.

I let out a deep sigh. "Look, I don't know what your problem is, but I am not here to hurt you,"

“Then why were you threating me?” he ask me, still shaking in fear.

“Because you are a Changeling and Changlings are evil and are Argonian’s natural enemies!” I answer with a hiss in my voice. 

The changeling stops shaking and looks at me confused. He tilted his head abit and walks up to me. He then then sniff me like a dog and let out a gasp. "You're not a real Argonian, are you?"

Wait a minute. What did he say? "How do you know that?"

"Well, changelings can tell who is real and who is not just by smelling them. We can even smell right through our disguise that way we don't get confused." he told me with a little grin on his face.

"So if you know that l'm not an Argonian, then you must know what I really am," I said, looking at him sternly.

The Changeling shook his head. "It's hard to say, but I know you aren't really an Argonian."

Well I guess now would be the time to tell him what I am since he doesn't know. "Well, if you wanna know, I am a human," I told him with pride. The Changeling gave me a blank look not sure what a human is. 

I face palm. "Have you ever seen a human before?"

"Nope, but I have heard of them before from six years ago. I think they still might be around," Okay, I'm starting to believe that he needs me to tell him about humans.

I decided to change the subject because he may have heard about humans, but I don't think he knows any culture of them. "Ok, that's nice. Now what's your name?"

"My Name is Thorax and I'm anything but evil," So, his name is Thorax, huh? Well, at least his name makes sense since his back is green. Before I ask him why he was here, we heard a deep low growl coming from the dark end of the cave. 

"What the hell is that?" I ask as Thorax is shivering right behind my legs.

"I-I think th-th-that's a y-y-y-yeti!" Thorax replied while shivering.

We then see two yellow eyes from the shadow and two white hairy arms reveal themselves from out of it. Then along came the entire body as it reveals itself to be indeed a yeti. 

This yeti isn't like the one you see at Disneyland. Nope, this one was as real as the Changeling who was cowering behind me.

The yeti looks down at the two of us and sniff us to find out what we are. "Could you please not breath on my face? It's really rude."

The yeti flick me in the wall as I felt a slight concussion. 

The Yeti looks at Thorax and lets out a mighty roar.

"AAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!" Thorax started flying away while the yeti gave chase. I got up just in time to see the two of them heading out of the cave. I didn't want to stand there so I need to think of something and now.

Think....Think.....Think.....Think.....you know what screw it. I'm an Argonian now, so let's see if this body is good for something. 

I set off out of the cave and I notices that Thorax and the yeti aren't here. "Where are they?" 

My question was answered as I hear Thorax screaming. I look up and saw these two on top of the mountain. Thorax was trying his best not to get grabbed as he keeps getting higher while the yeti tries jumping to catch him. It's kinda funny when you think about it, but I couldn't let that Changeling die. "Hang on!" I shouted as climb up to the mountain. 

When I got to the top I began to attack this hairy beast by climbing on the back of this creature and trying to attack it. I took a bite at it causing the yeti to howl in pain. It stops trying to catch Thorax as it turn its head and sees me. I'm screwed.

The yeti grabs me and roars loudly in my face. Two words for this guy: Tic Tacs. I try to get out of it, but it's too strong. "I get sent to Equestria and already I get to die here by this thing!?" 

The yeti squeezes me even tighter making me scream in pain. I scream at the top of my lungs and I was so gonna lose air. 

Just then, a green energy beam hit the yeti in the nose, making it let go of me while it hold it's burn nose. I turn around and saw Thorax who look like he was running a marathon. That pansy Changeling just save my ass? I guess I owe him one.

I got up despite being sore on my back and started to walk towards him. I stop when I feel a white glow around me. Then, I began to feel no back pains. The glow stops and I feel all better now. Like nothing happen to me.

I turn to Thorax who had is jaws drop. "You glowed and you started to feel better. You must've use the hitskin. 

So he knows about it? Well, that’s not surprising. The yeti let out another roar in anger. Thorax looks like he's about to run.

"Let's get out of here!" he said as he was about to leave. 

He was gonna leave but I ran up to him and grab his hoof. "We aren't running. In fact, we're gonna fight this monster."

He gulped. "Did you say fight?"

"Oh yeah," I nodded. "Now I know you don't wanna fight but believe me, if you fight along side with me, you'll survive. If you don't, well your dead. So come on and let's take this yeti down!"

Thorax took a second to decide if he wants to the yeti with me or not. This Changeling may not like violence, but he's got a life to live with. The yeti was then getting his shaking off the pain of his nose and let out another roar.

Thorax looks terrified and sigh. "Alright, I'll fight with you," he hung his head before he flies down and was engulf with green flames and got turn into a sword. 

I didn't know Changelings can turn into objects. I grab him by the handle and begin to point 'my sword' at the yeti. I'm starting to get a really good Soul Eater reference here.

"Hey, you wanna piece of us? Well, come and get us!" I said, getting it's attention. It growled at me as it got on all fours to prepare for a fight.

Now it was time for a rematch.
> Chapter 4: David and Goliath ( Edited in 6/2/20 )
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now it was time for a rematch. 

We started charging at the yeti, only for it to smack us like twenty feet away from him. We landed on the snow backfirst and got up just in time to see that thing jump in the air and landed about a few feet away from me and Thorax. It grabbed me and squeeze me in a tight grip.

"Ugh...too... strong....must...find....away....out!" I must find away out of its grib. I realize that I still had Thorax as a sword in my hand and I didn't let go of him? Damn. I guess I have a good grib on him. Wait, this just gives me an idea.

"Take....THIS!" I stab the yeti's arm using Thorax. It worked really well as it howls in pain. It tossed the two of us and we landed on the snow. Thorax morph back to his original form and was freaking out due to the blood he had on his horn. 

"Blood! Blood! Blood on my horn! Why did you do that!? Why?!"

"Get ahold of yourself. I did that because that beast was gonna kill me." 

My body started to ache a bit as I rub my torso from side to side. Too bad I can only heal once a day. Thorax was still freaking out over the fact that he had blood on his horn. The yeti's shadow can be seen and we turn around just in time to see it rising its fist in the air and slams them down on us. 

We got out of the away just in time for me to latch on to it and wrestle with this snow ape. 

Unfortunately, that was stupid of me as the yeti flicks me off of its arms and I slammed into a nearby boulder. Thorax looks terrified when the yeti step closer to him. He didn't move so he just stood there like a frighten dog. I got up and from the looks of things, we are really sucking at fighting a yeti.

"Thorax, Move!" I shouted, hoping he would hear me. 

He did move out of the way when the yeti prepares to slam its fist on him. Thorax really needs to learn how to fight in order to avoid dying. 

"Thorax, you need to not stand still if you don't want the yeti to kill you." I said, while scolding him.

Thorax lowered his head before perking up when he heard the yeti's foot steps coming. I move him out of the away and was smashed by that thing again. "NO!" Thorax yelled in shock. 

I was starting to feel little dizzy here. I got up completely and saw that the yeti was standing there in front of me, looking like it was gonna kill me.

I see Thorax still shaking in fear. He didn't know what he got himself into and nether did I. The yeti was about to grab me, but I moved out of the way to avoid the grip of the beast. I ran up to my Changeling buddy and try to shake the fear out of him. "You need to be brave. You have to face your fear."

"But I can't."

"Yes, you can. Look, it's alright to be scared but sooner or later you have to face them. If you don't, you will die."

After hearing that word, Thorax's eyes went wide as plates and looks really mad. He wasn't mad at me he was mad at the yeti who was glaring at him too.

"Stand back. I'll take care of this." I did what he said as he was engulf in flames again and was now transform into a yeti. 

He then let out a roar of his own before he collided with the yeti in a lock up. They both look evenly match, it was then that the yeti pushed Thorax away from him but he got up and sucker punch that white fur ball.

Damn, this is like a monster movie, only better.

The yeti punch him back and they both started punching each other. Soon, Thorax was getting tired but he saw the incoming fist and grabbed it. He twisted its wrist and if I listen carefully I can hear the bones crack. The yeti was not liking this as it howls in pain. The yeti started clawing at Thorax's right eye making him yell in pain. This give it time to bite him on the shoulder to add more pain. He's gonna get killed if he doesn't do something. 

He retaliates by biting the yeti's left shoulder and ripping off a huge chunks of it. It lets go of him as it looks at its shoulder blade and sees blood oozing out as well as blood clots on it. Thorax you are an animal. 

The yeti refuse to give up as it ran up to him, but he was ready for the yeti come after him. He lifted it up and throw it at me.

"Whoa!" I cried out, moving away from the falling yeti. It rolled around and stop near the edge of the cliff which must have sharp rocks at the bottom. It got up and roars at the two of us. This was getting boring so I pick up a nearby rock and threw it at the yeti.

The rock hit the yeti in the forehead and got knock out as it falls off the cliff and was impaled by the sharp rocks. 

We look down and saw a horrible sight ever. "Wow, Thorax, you kick its ass," I said, looking at him while he changes back.

"Thanks," he said, looking bashful at what he did. "I'm not really a fan of violence. It's just a horrible tick I have. Say, I didn't get your name."

He's right, I forget to tell him what my name was after the whole yeti battle. Should I tell him my real name or my new name?

.....You know what, I'm gonna use my new name and I got the perfect one. "I'm Razor."

"Nice to meet you," Thorax said, holding his hoof in front of me. I respond by grabbing his hoof and started shaking.

A gust of wind blew right at us which made us shiver. "We need to find shelter and fast."

"I smell love on the northern right side," Thorax said, pointing right.

"You can smell love?"

"Yes, every Changeling can. It's how we can find food. We have to hurry."

And so we did, we started to head right to find shelter. I hope he knows where he's taking me. I really hate the cold.
> Chapter 5: A Friend in Deed ( Edited 6/6/20 )
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Holy crap, that was intense! The way you killed that yeti was brutal," I still couldn't believe that Thorax was able to kick that yeti's ass. I mean he just went from a wimp to a beast. I'm starting to like this guy.

Thorax blush a bit about what I said. "It was nothing."

"Nothing? It was awesome!" I said as I pat him on the back.

"So, Thorax, you mind telling me what's a Changeling like you doing here in the snow?" That question got him by surprise. He look a bit down at what I ask him, but sighed and told me about it anyway.

"Well, as you can see, I was different from the other Changelings. It was from the moment when I was a hatchling. I was quite happy to be with my family and my Queen....only I found out that all the Changelings are bad. Queen Chrysalis taught all of us how to feed off love. However, I didn't want to feed off it, I want to share it. Four hundred years later, I became a solder for the Changeling army. I was part of the attack in Canterlot, but when I saw six ponies fighting together I had know idea that love can be shared. Me, Queen Chrysalis and the rest of the Changeling army we're swept away from Canterlot. After that, we went back to Queen Chrysalis' hive and I told her that instead of taking love we should share it. But, she didn't like that and just cast me out of the hive and to never return. I wondered around Equis until I found you napping in the cave on a snowy mountain top."

So this Changeling is the only one that wants to share love, but Queen Chrysalis rejects that idea? Unbelievable! If I ever meet her, I'm gonna kick her ass. I let out a deep growl at how she would kick Thorax out like that.

"Hey, are you okay?" Thorax ask, tapping me. 

I broke out of my angry thought and look at him who was tilting his head abit. "Yeah, I’m fine," I replied calmly.

Thorax didn't want to ask further, so he decided to change the subject. "So....you mind telling me your story? You know, just out of curiosity," he said, not looking me.

This one was gonna be hard to explain to him. Should I tell him what I am or should I make up a story about me? Well, I have no choice but to tell him what I really am. "Thorax, I have to tell you a secret."

The nervous Changeling looks at me with a eyebrow raise. "A secret? What kind of secret?"

"A Special Secret and I think you need to hear it loud and clear."

"Uh...Okay, I'm listening."

"My real name is Eddie Russ. Razor is just my fake name.”

Thorax gave me a blank stare before he let out an awkward smile like he was trying his best not to think I'm crazy. "I....uh....that's not....weird at all....I think."

Not weird? Not weird? He doesn't believe me! No matter, maybe I can convince him to believe my life in the other world and it's culture. I just hope he understands the whole detail.

I told him everything about the human life on earth, like there are computers, fast foods, movies etc. I also told him about my life as a human. I was from Queens, New York, I had a job as a pizza boy when I was nineteen, but got fired after the oven incident three weeks ago. I told him that I use to be the husband of beautiful woman before should file a divorce papers on me after the incident and was told by the court to never go near her at all or I be in jail forever. I mention I got a new job as a Preschool Teacher and I was great with kids. Even though I tell Thorax my real name is indeed Eddie Russ, I told him to call me Razor because it's fitting in my Argonian from, I told him that I was a tall, skinny, white, have red curly hair, I told him that my favorite music is Heavy Metal, Dubstep, Alternate Rock and movie songs ( Hey, I have a weird taste in music alright. ) before being sent here to Equis. I told Thorax that there was a show for little girls that was based on the world he's living in and he seems shocked and amazed by that detail. I even told him about how I came to Equis and told him that Princess Luna sent me here by kissing me to sleep when I was on a blind date with her. Thorax was surprise about how I told him that Princess Luna's reasons for sending me here was to warn everypony about Queen Chrysalis' return and wanted me to save the day and what not. 

After my life story, I look at Thorax, who was both amazed and confused about everything I told him. "So, you were sent here by Princess Luna because she wanted you to warn EVERYPONY about Queen Chrysalis' return and she also want you to gather an army for a war she is gonna bring?" 

I only nodded at his question. Thorax was visibly shaking meaning he didn't want to see her because if they do cross path, he's a dead bug.

"Boy, I sure don't wanna fight her."

"Why?" 

"Because she's the queen and she is tough...very tough."

Queen Chrysalis tough? Well, she is the ruler of the Changelings. I then made a confident smirk. "Thorax, you may have been able to defeat a Yeti, but if you don't feel like fighting, I'll be glad to do it," He looked at me with a hopeful look on his face.

"Really? You're gonna fight her?" He ask, sounding more happy then scared. 

I only chuckled at his question. "Thorax, I can assure you that I will always be your friend. After all, you never had a friend like me before," I then started to sing a tune from my world and it was catchy to say the least. I started singing about that one song from Aladdin where the Genie sings about being their to help out Aladdin in need like what I'm gonna be doing to Thorax.

After my song ended, Thorax started clapping his hooves. He must like my singing voice since I'm a great singer. 

"Wow, that was a great song. Do you always sing, Razor?" Thorax ask.

"Only when I feel like it," I replied with a shrug. 

Before he could ask more, we heard wings flapping from above and look up to see a familiar Pegasus Pony in armor from the sky.
> Chapter 6: Talking To Royalty ( Edited 11/15/17 )
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

The orange Pegasus in armor flew down and pointed his spear at the two of us. I couldn't believe it, it was Flash Sentry. The Pegasus stallion who bumped into Twilight in the first Equestria girls movie. 

"Hi there," I said, being cheerful.

"Silence!" He shouted pointing his spear at me.

I don't know what he wants, but looks piss judging by his face.

"You two, what are you doing here in the borders of the Crystal Empire?" The Crystal Empire? That's were it leads us? Oh my god! Shining Armor and Princess Cadence are there. I got to see them.

I tried my best to look calm and cool in front of the Pegasus Guard. "I am Razor and this is my companion Thorax and we demand to see the rulers of the Crystal Empire. Plus, you should be silence you fool."

That last part I said only made him point his spear at me further. He must not like it when I called him 'fool.'

Thorax raised his left hoof. "Sorry, he was just being funny," Thorax said, looking more scared.

Flash glared at him before facing me. "You and that bug are coming with me to see the Prince and Princess of the Crystal Empire. You two will be silence and you will speak only when spoken to understand?" We both only nodded at his instructions not knowing if he wants us to both say yes or not.

We followed him to the Crystal Empire. "This is so amazing!” I said, while being to hyped about meeting Shining and Princess Cadence.

"What did I just say?" Flash ask, pointing his spear at me.

"Only speak when spoken." I deadpan.

He turn around and held his spear back. "Asshole," I said, not realizing that I said that out loud as Thorax gasped at my language while Flash turns around and gives me the 'What did you say look'.

"I mean, I like turtles," I said, not wanting to push his limits. He turns around rolled his eyes as if he finds me annoying.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We were kept silence for a while not wanting to make Flash Sentry even more mad then ever. When we arrive at the Crystal Castle, we went into the throne room and there we see Shining Armor and Princess Cadence who both look very happy at our arrival. I don't know why, but I guess Princess Luna must've told them about us. I wonder if they knew I was human? 

"Your highness', I found this Changeling and this giant lizard in the snow," I'm an Argonian, you nitwit. He motions us to step forward and we did. We bow down to them like they were royalty. ( Which they are )

I heard Princess Cadence giggled. "You two don't have to bow. In fact, Princess Luna has told me all about you, Eddie," I look up in shock since I couldn't believe my ears. If I have any.

Thorax looked at me with a confused look. "Have you met them before?" Thorax ask.

"Only on Tv," I replied, still shock to know that Princess Luna has told them about my arrival.

Flash gave me a question look. "What's Tv and what the hell is going on, Princess?" 

Shining raised his hoof to him, telling him to be quiet and he did. He then turn to me with a welcoming grin. "We're sorry if you didn't know about this. Princess Luna came by and told us about a human who will be arriving at the Crystal Empire and we had to sent Flash Sentry to go out in the snow and find the Argonian and bring it here. However, we didn’t expect Thorax to be with you here.”

I only gave him a blank stare. "Why didn't you tell Flash about the fact that I'm human?" 

"We wanted to be a surprise for him," Princess Cadence replied sheepishly. Flash's eyes twitch with both shock and angry. He didn't know if should yell at them or just faint...or both.

"Does anypony else know about this?"

"No. We have been told by Princess Luna to keep the human part a secret for you. Of course it seems Thorax is the only....Changeling to know what you are."

"Now on to the next topic. You are gonna be having sparring match with Flash Sentry tomorrow," We both couldn't believe what Princess Cadence said.

I was very excited about this while Flash was none too happy. "But Princess, he's a Lizard. I cannot spar with him."

Shining gave him a glare that would spell problem. "Are you refusing to spar with him by Cadence's orders?" he ask, lowering his eyebrows even more.

Flash gulped. "No, sir. Sorry, sir."

Shining stood up straight and looks at the two of us. "Now how about we have a feast?"

"I agree. You both look hungry after that walk outside. Would you like to eat with us?" Me and Thorax were happy to hear the word feast and we didn't say no. We both nodded and we were escorted to the halls by Flash Sentry, Shining Armor and Princess Cadence.

"Boy, he sure showed you who's tough," I whispered to Flash who didn't say anything. He didn't look really happy about having to train me.

Thorax taps on my right shoulder. "Maybe he's having a bad day."

"I doubt it," I whispered back. "Look at him. I bet he wishes he wasn't a royal gaurd.

That got him to give me a stern look. "You know I can hear you two whispering right?"

Realize this, we both decide to keep our mouths shut unless we are allowed to talk.

We arrive at the crystal dinning hall and low and behold our eyes went wide as ever. There are a lot of food here at the table and most of them are corn, crystal berries, carrots and a cake big enough for the all ponies to enjoy.

"That's a lot of food," said Thorax, eyeing most of the treats. 

"Yeah," We all head to the table and sat down. Shining and Princess Cadence were sitting on the right side of the table while me and Thorax were sitting at the left side at the table. Flash was sitting next Thorax as he gave him the stink eye. 

Thorax didn't like that look he gave him.

The door opens and one of the Crystal Gaurds was holding a pink baby Alicorn. She lets out a cute giggle when she saw me, Thorax, Flash Sentry, Shining Armor and Princess Cadence. 

"Your majeties, your daughter has awoken from her nap and I am here to let her see some visitors," he said, before letting the pink baby Alicorn go. The pink baby Alicorn spread out her huge wings and flies over to her parents.

"Hello, Flurry Heart. Did you had nice dream?" Princess Cadence ask. Her only responds was a giggle and some baby noises. She then looks at me and was smiling at me before reaching out to me.

Seeing this, Princess Cadence holds up Flurry with her magic to me. "Would you like to hold her?"

Holy crap, she's so cute. Must. Not. Have. Heart. Attack! Flurry then started snuggling up to my chest like a cute kitty.

"Aw, she likes you," said Princess Cadence, admiring the way her daughter was fonding  with me. Shining Armor also likes how she loves me. Then, Flurry flew up to Thorax and hug him by the neck he looks quite scared of 
her.                                                                                                                                                                   

"Thorax, what's wrong?" I ask.

"I'm scared of her," he replied, trying to get her off of his neck gently with his magic but to no avail.

He's scared of babies? Who the hell thinks babies are scary? 

"But she's a baby. She won't bite," Shining said assuringly.

Thorax shook his head. "It's not that. It's just that she has so much love around her and I'm afraid my Changeling instinct will get the best of me."

Seeing that he was trying not his hurt her, Princess Cadence called her daughter over to her and had Flurry go on her back. Thorax sighed in relief "Thank you, your highness," Was all he said.

Shining then glances at me. "So, where will you be going after the training with my liutantant Flash Senrty?"

I had no idea. I haven't really thought about it other then the place I'm already in.

"Well, what do you recommend?" I ask, scratching my scales. My scales are itchy sometimes. I use to have a beard before I got turn into a six foot tall Lizardman.

"Well, you can always go to Yakyakastain it's just up north from here," Shining suggested.

Going to a village of yaks might not be such bad idea. I only got to see the outside of it when Pinkie Pie tried to go to Yakyakastain but didn't make it. Maybe now it's the perfect time for me to accept. "Alright. Will go to Yakyakastain," I said, getting up from the chair with my hands on my hips in pride.

Shining and Princess Cadence smiled at my choice of words. "Great, but first you need to be training with Flash Sentry. Flash!"

"Sir!" Flash said, with a salute to his Captain/Prince.

"Please take Razor to the training room," Shining said, pointing to me with his hoof.

"What about me?" Thorax ask a bit worried.

"You can come too."

Thorax smiled at this. "Thanks,"

With that Flash groans about training us before ushering me and Thorax to follow him.
> Chapter 7: Training ( Edited 11/16/17 )
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Me and Thorax were following Flash down the hall and I gotta say this place is like a MAZE here. Thorax wanted to ask Flash a question but he quickly kept quiet when he gave him a cold glare. He didn't want to get in trouble for speaking without permission.

I whispered to his ear. "Don't worry, I'm sure he'll start liking us once he gets to know us more."

"I hope so," he whispered back.

Flash stop us and be pointed to a door on the right that reads 'Training Room' on it. "This is where you'll be training, Razor. Once inside, you and I are only gonna be fighting with no weapons."

I raise my claw for a question. "Does that mean I won't get one until my training is over?"

He gave me deadpan look. "That's not for me to decide that's the Captain's choice. Now the rules about this training is-"

"Do not talk about training," I cut him off with a smirk. Thorax was snickering while Flash shot me a glare. He didn't take my Reference well nor does he even knows and not care about it.

"As I was SAYING, the first rule about training is to fight with all you got. If your fighting skills is good enough, you will pass. If not, you will start all over until you get it right and I don't care how long it takes."

Thorax raise his hoof. "Question, what's the next rule?"

Flash got grin on his face. "The next rule is that you can't use outside help in this training. You do that and you and your friend will have to do bathroom duties for five hours."

Thorax was shaking in fear and I made a disgusted look. I didn't like cleaning the bathroom, but I had to do it anyway if I wanted it nice clean.

"Now then, Razor, I want you to get ready to fight with me while you Thorax just sit and watch. Let's go," Flash said, clearing his throat. With that, the three of us went inside the training room and in our amazement, the inside looks a gym mixed with a ballet room. 

Flash and me went to the center of the mat while Thorax just headed to the corner on the left and sit down. "Are you ready?" Flash ask me, taking off his helmet and armor to face me.

I did my best fighting stance. "Let's do this."

Flash wasted no time as he trots up to me really fast. He jumps over me and did a leg sweep, making me fall down.

I got up only to be punch in the muzzle by his hoof. He punches me again and again and again but I grabbed it with both claws and head butted him.

He staggers a bit and wipes a few blood from his mouth. He looks at me and gives me the 'it's on now' look.

He charges at me, but this time I side step to the right and pick him up with all my strength. I threw him to the wall, but he somehow manages to use wings to stop himself from crashing into the wall. "You'll have to do better then that!" He shouted, before flying straight to me.

He tackled me to the floor and pin me down. He gave me a smirk. "Give up?"

"Never!" I shouted, struggling to get him off of me. 

Thorax was getting scared. "I can't watch," he said, covering his eyes. I try to get Flash off of me, but he just wouldn't free me. I then tried use my tounge and lick his face to get him of off me and it works. He wipes his face off with his left hoof.

"Hey, licking me is not allowed," he complain. I got up and got ready to fight some more.

I punch him three times and did a stone cold stunner on him like Stone Cold Steve Austin did to his boss. Flash got up and flared his wings as if he's ready for take off and he did.

He flew high in the air and flew down at me for a charge attack. There was no way for me to avoid that.

"Razor, get outta there!" Thorax shouted at the top of his lungs. I heard him loud and clear and avoid his attack. He crash into the floor.

He got up and look completely hurt. Flash's left wing was bent a little but other then that, he looks really mad. I had a feeling this was gonna go bad. 

He gallops right at me and jumps to prepare for a bodyslam, but I caught him by the front and back left legs and hoist him up on my shoulders and did the S5 on him like Brock Lesnar. He landed on his backside and I can hear his bones cracking. He was screaming in pain and Thorax can hear it too as he cringes in disgust.

"My back!" He shouted "My back is hurt!"

What have I done? I don't know what to do. Thorax flew over to me and gave me a panic look. 

"What did you do?" He ask me. Flash was not gonna walk that off. 

"I didn't mean to slam him that hard!" I replied, trying my best not to sound like I just committed murder. If Princess Cadence and Shining Armor found out about this, they are gonna be pissed ( well, Shining will I don't know about Cadence ).

I bend down and try to help him to figure out away to fix his back, only for him shout at me in anger. "Don't Touch!"

Me and Thorax jumped a bit at his rage. I couldn't just stand there, so I just did touch him anyways. "Hey, didn't you hear me? I said get back!"

"Shut the hell up, Flash, I'm trying to help you," I really didn't like his attitude. I rolled him over to the left side as he was feeling a bit of pain on his back. I try to think of way to heal him as I place right claw on his back.

I rub his back nice and smoothly as he was starting to relax. I’m good at soothing back pains. Too bad I couldn’t use my histskin on him. I played Skyrim when I was human and my character was an Argonain just like me and he never uses histskin on anyone else.

When I stop rubbing his back I move my claw away from him. He got up and he was moving his body around abit before looking at me with a shock expression. "Did you just fix my back?"

"I believe so," I said, proudly.

"Razor, I had know idea you can do that," Thorax said, looking at me like I grew another head.

Before, I said something, the doors burst open and two Crystal Gaurds came in holding spears with their hooves. "Lieutenant Flash, are you okay? Did the lizard thing hurt you?" ask one of the Gaurds.

Flash held his hoof in front of them, telling them it's fine. "Everything is fine. Razor just fix my back."

They gave him a confused look. "He fix you? How?"

I rolled my eyes. "I rub his back."

They both then nodded in understanding and were then inturrpted by Shining's coughing. Our eyes were now facing him who was standing by the door with a serious look. "Razor, Princess Luna is here and she wants to see at once."
> Chapter 8: The Princess and I ( Edited in 11/17/17 )
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Upon hearing this, we look and see the Princess of the Night herself and I just couldn't believe how beautiful she looks in real life. Okay, I have been human before but I'm not. I'm an Argonian now and I go by the name Razor. I walk over to Princess Luna ( I was wobbling abit ) and bow down to her.

"That won't be necessary, Eddie. You may rise," I got up with a blush on my face. I had know idea that Argonians can blush then again, this is a cartoon right?

"My new name is Razor now, Princess Luna," I told Luna who nodded an approval.

"Very well, I would like to speak to you somewhere alone if you don't mind?" I don't know why she wanted to speak to me alone, but she must really want to tell me something serious.

She turns to Thorax who waves nervously only for Princess Luna to grin despite him being a Changeling. "It seems to be that this one is anything but evil."

Wait, how did she know he's not evil? Can she read minds or read emotions? I'll never understand her. I hope she didn't hear my thought.

Thorax looks perplexed. "Uh..Thanks?" He said, not really sure how to really respond.

Flash was confused as we were. "You're highness, this is a Changeling," he stated "He feeds on love."

"Actually I want to share love with everypony," Thorax stated, before Flash shot him a glare causing the Changeling to back up in fear.

Princess Luna only smiled at his commit. "I sense that he is not. He must’ve been born a different Changeling. A Changeling who will join Razor and you, Flash."

Me, Thorax and Flash had our jaws drop and when we hear her say that we will both be with Flash Sentry. Flash found his voice and started stuttering. "B-B-But your H-Highness, I-I-I don't want to go with them!"

She raise her eyebrow at him. Flash gulp as if he knew he didn't want to make her mad. "I had a talk with Captain Shining Armor and I ask about Razor going to Yakyakastain and tell him that you will join them on their adventure by being their bodyguard."

Flash's eyes were now pinprick. "BODYGUARD!" He shouted, only to cover his mouth when realize Princess Luna was still here. "I mean of course, Princess Luna. I will join Razer and Thorax."

She smiled and turns to me. "Razor, would you mind walking with me?"

I didn't know why but I just did what she told me and walk up to her. When I got near her, she use her magic and put me to sleep. My eyes were getting heavy and the last words I hear from her was "I'll see in the Dream realm."

----------------------------------

I woke up and found myself in some weird blue-greenish place. It looks like the place where Twilight gets sent to meet Princess Celestia before becoming an Alicorn and Princess Luna going into the CMC's dreams with doors. 

I got up and I felt something off in my body. I look down and see that I was now human. How did I became human? 

Then a familiar voice spoke behind me "Welcome to the Dream Realm," I turn around and saw Princess Luna walking to me. She must've put a sleeping spell on me. 

I scratch my head in confusion since I have no clue why she did that. Seeing this, Princess Luna smiled at me before speaking. "I see you are wondering why I put you to sleep. Well I did that just so I can tell you a bit more of Argonians."

There's more information about Argonians? This I gotta hear this. 

"You see, Argonians have genders and they can be identified easily. Some males have horns and the females don't," that's just like lions. well, sorta. I guess it makes sense. "Argonians shed their skins every forty moons meaning that they will reach their adulthood."

"That's really a long time," I said, not liking the shedding in forty moons part.

"It's only for forty years on earth where you are from," She pointed out. I really hope I don't start shedding now. "Now, Argonians have to eat fish, berries, fruits and bugs because that is their main food group. They can also eat what ponies eat minus the hay they can't eat it because it will make them sick."

Wow, gotta remember myself never to eat hay. "Is there anything else about my race?"

"Yes, Argonians are very agile and fast aside from their histskin ability. Now I'm gonna give you two new magical powers that will help you on your journey."

Her horn glows into a light blue aura and pointed her horn at me. She blast me with her magic and I can feel a slight pinch in each of my body. When she finish, she started panting. "That...should....do it."

I look at her and then at my body and back at her before I shouted. "WHAT DID YOU DO TO ME!?"

"I have given you a boon."

"A Boon? What the hell for?"

"To help you on your adventure in case you ran into trouble."

"Okay, so what's my boon?"

She only smiled before speaking. "Why you can turn invisible as well as blending into the backgrounds of your surroundings. Try turning invisible."

I did as I was told and tried to think about being invisible. It didn't take too long when I somehow became invisible. I try to look at my hands but I couldn't because they are invisible just like the rest of my body. I don't know if I should be excited or scared, but in the end, I got use to it. "This is awesome," I said, before becoming visible.

"I'm glad you like it. But there's a problem. You can only be invisible for twenty minutes. However, since you were able to be visible for under that, you can do that without any problems," Princess Luna was really nice. I love her now. I heared what she said about being invisible for twenty minutes but I didn't care. What I do care however was getting two powers from the Princess of the Night herself.

"Thank you so much, Princess Luna. I really love these new powers," I said with a smile on my face. I rush up to her and started kissing her on the muzzle. Princess Luna didn't know what happen and neither did I as I let go of her.

We both give each other a wide eyed expressions with red cheeks on our faces. I gave her a nervous chuckle. "So, I guess I should be waking up now, right?"

She nodded. "Yes. I believe it's time to be awaken."

"Good idea," I said, still blushing about what I just did.

Then she flies away and completely vanished. Me on the other hand, I just stand there completely baffled at what I did. The Dream Realm started to fade and I was starting to feel woozy before I collapse on the ground and fell like sleeping again.

-------------------------

I woke up and see that I was an Argonian. I then look at Thorax and Flash Sentry who both had different reactions. Thorax was blushing and Flash look like he wanted to kill me for whatever I did. "Why are you looking at me like that?" I ask them, hoping to get an answer.

"Well...you were...kissing the Princess," Thorax replied while looking left. He must've been feeling awkward about it.

Flash on the other hand was still mad at me for a reason. "I don't know why you did it. But you clearly have the nerve to do that."

I don't really know what happen until I finally understand what I really did. 'Oh my god, I must've kissed her in the Dream Realm and in Real life.' I thought to myself in surprise. I guess it's true what they say on Nightmare on Elm Street, when you die your dreams, you die for real. But in this case it's when you kiss a pony in your dreams, you kiss a pony for real.

I walk up to Flash to give him a reassuring pat on the back. "Look, Flash, I'm sure I didn't really mean to-"

"Don't touch me lizard," Flash warn. I remove my claw away from him with a sheepish smile. Then, Thorax taps on my leg.

"Hey, Razor, what was going on with you and Princess Luna when you were sleeping with her?" Did he say 'SLEEPING WITH HER?' She was sleeping with me?! holy crap, I don't know why, but I'm getting a feeling that I feel like loving her more. Before I can answer, the door opens and Shining Armor appears.

"Razor, Thorax and Flash, can you please come to the throne room now?"
> Chapter 9: The Adventure Begins...With A War Song. ( Edited 11/18/17 )
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Me, Thorax and Flash were in the throne room and we notice that Princess Luna is next to Shining Armor who is next to his wife Princess Cadence who has Flurry Heart on her back. She looks cute when she looks at me like that. 

Princess Luna cleared her throat to get my attention. "Razor. Flash. Thorax. You three are gathered here today to become a team. A team that I know you will survive this dangerous peril. The journey you three will go will be no cake walk. Now, there are some places where you will make new friends and they will join you along the way. Flash Sentry, while you are met to protect the Crystal Empire you are allowed to go anywhere but only with Razor and Thorax."

Even though he didn't like the idea of joining me and Thorax, he sighs in defeat. "Of course, your highness. I will stay with these two."

"Now before you all go, I must give Razor a weapon of his own. Razor. Step forward if you please," I did what I was told and did a bow to her before standing up looking at her in the eyes.

"Razor, while you just came here, you will do great things along with your friends. You will be a hero to see all of Equis. There for I shall bestow upon you a weapon that will help you on your adventure. I give you the ice staff," Princess Luna use hear magic to summon a staff that looks awesome enough to use. I really like how it looks.

I grab on to the staff and examine it by rubbing it with both claws. 'This is the coolest weapon ever,' I thought to myself in amazement. I heard Princess Luna clearing her throat as I look up to hear her say something important.

"The ice staff is known for only using ice based magic. But there is a flaw, it cannot be use in extreme hot places so you may want to use it to hit your enemies with it instead."

"Seriously?!"

"Yes."

"Well, I guess I can use it to beat them with and use ice magic when I'm in warmish places. It's not like it wouldn't work if I can't use it."

I know I'm not much of an ice person but screw it, I'm gonna use it no matter what. Too bad I can't use ice base magic in the desert. Flash step forward as Princess Luna, Shining Armor and Princess Cadence looked at him. Shining was the first to speak. "What is it, solider?"

"Not that I'm worried but this seems like a bad idea," This gave them a confused look.

"How do you mean?" Shining ask, being more curious. 

Flash had his ears down. "Well, what if he uses it to freeze everypony and cause mayhem in all of Equestria? I mean this is really a bad idea if you ask me and I thi-"

I cut him off by putting a claw on his shoulder to calm him down. "I am not gonna do that. I'm just gonna use it for good and that's it. Besides, you need to let loose you're becoming a worried wart."

He was about to say something to retort but stops himself, knowing that he doesn't want to make The Princess' and The Prince mad for complaining about 'what I might do.' Instead he decided to shut up and look at me with a death glare. He spoke through gritted teeth. "Just don't do anything stupid with that staff, got it?"

"You have my word," I said, not really caring if he'll threat me or not. ( Most likely not since Princess Luna is my player. ) 

Princess Luna focus on Thorax and he seems nervous when she looks at him like that. The look she made was eager but serious, how serious? Well, let's just say it was serious enough to make  Discord stop acting like a kid. "Thorax, I understand that you are a Changeling, but you have been banish by Queen Chrysalis correct?"

He nodded in responds. The poor guy must be still sad after his queen kick him out for being too soft.

"Since you are no longer with Queen Chrysalis that makes you a friend of mine as well as all of Equis. Do you like that?" We were surprise to hear her say that even Thorax who look at her with joyful grin. Thorax walks a bit before he speaks.

"Do you really mean that? You wanna be my friend?"

"But of Course, you deserve to have a friend. In fact, you two of them already."

"Thank you, your highness."

"Please, call me Luna."

"Yes. Thank you, Luna."

This was really nice of her. She made a friend out of that wimpy Changeling and he now is considered a friend of Equis. Thorax walks up to me and I bend down to give him a claw/hoof shake. "Thorax, you must be very happy to have princess for a friend."

"Well, she is nice unlike my ex-queen," Thorax said, saying those last words with frown.

"Hey, just forget about her okay. Queen Chrysalis is a bitch and Princess Luna is not. You really have nothing to be nervous about. Don't you remember that song I sang to you?" Thorax knew he remember that song I sang even though it was Aladdin. 

"Yeah and it help me a little to make me forget about being with her and having new friends like you and Flash," Thorax said.

Flash did a double take on what Thorax said. "Friends? Okay, You and that lizard can be friends, but you can't be my friend. I'm suppose to be watching you and Razor so you two don't do anything bad."

I rolled my eyes at him "Are you really that naive?"

"Enough of this. Now you three are gonna go to Yakyakastan at once, when you get their you three will try to warn them about Queen Chrysalis return and tell their prince to set up an army to team up with the ponies," Princess Luna said as she glances down at the three of us.

We stop talking so that way The Princess of the night can speak more. "Razor, Thorax and Flash. You three must go now and warn the Yaks about  Queen Chrysalis."

"Yes, your highness."

"Okay."

"You got it love."

That one got everypony to give me a blank stare. "What did you say, Razor?"

Okay, that was not the right words to say. "I said, we won't let you down," I said, lying with a fake smile. 

Princess Luna was still giving me a blank stare but decides to shrug it off. "Anyways, good luck you three and remember, the fate of Equis is counting on you."

Me, Thorax and Flash left the Crystal Empire and head to Yakyakastain to warn them about Queen Chrysalis return. 

------------------------------

We have only been in the snowy mountains for two hours and this felt like forever. I decided to bug Flash for a bit to keep myself busy.

"Hey, Flash. Hey, Flash. Hey, Flash. Hey, Flash. Hey, Flash. Hey, Flash. Hey, Flash."

"WHAT!?"

"You're funny."

"And you're annoying. I mean I don't know why I have to go with you."

"Because Luna said you have to go with us," Thorax chimes in only for Flash to give him a glare that make him back up a bit. "Well, that's what she said."

Flash stops glaring at Thorax and looks down with a sigh. "I guess you're right. I just wish I wasn't with you guys, but unfortunately I can't leave two alone because I have been order by Princess Luna to stay with you on this journey. I hate being a soldier."

I don't know why, but I felt bad for him. I mean both him and his human counterpart are waifu stealers, but does that make him a villain? No! it doesn't. I mean his human counterpart did clear Twilight's name after she was accused of sabotaging the school gym in the first Equestria Girls Movie. ( and yes, I like all four Equestria Girls Movies so sue me. ) I really hate seeing sad faces on people especially ponies. I need to do one thing that would make him feel better. I know this is gonna sound a bit random, but I'm gonna sing him a song. Songs can make people...or ponies happy which is why I'm gonna sing Flash a song.

"Hey, Flash, can I sing you a song?" I ask.

"No," he answered though gritted teeth.

"Please?" I ask again with a little beg.

"I said no," he answered again this time sounding even more annoyed.

"Come on, Flash. Just one song? It wouldn't hurt," I wanted to sing him a song so badly and I jus can't let Flash be sad about it.

Thorax walks up to him. "Maybe you should let him sing, Flash. He's a good singer and I heard his singing before you came along so maybe you should at least give it a chance."

I put my claws and bend down to my knees together to make a begging pose at him who looks at me with raise eyebrow.

Flash began to sigh "Fine, but one song only," Well I got to sing, but I only have to sing one song and one song only, I began to sing a marching song for our team name.

This was about the soldier who fought in a war and were proud to be heroes for the US. I can tell that Flash may not understand humans and their war, but he can tell that he was happy that the soldiers who were in the war fought bravely and never back down from a fight no matter what.

When I finish singing, I notice that flash had a look of happiness in him, even Thorax was surprise by this. "Hey, Flash, are you crying?" I ask as I can see a teardrop coming down on him.

"No! I wasn't! Something must've been in my eye and it bothers me," He quickly rubs the tear out of his eye and quickly regain his composure. He does a soldier pose in front of us. "Now, then, that was a good song, Razor. I have to admit that you are a good singer. But, that doesn't mean that we are friends. Now, let's move out."

I was hoping he would. Oh well, what are you gonna do? We continued our away to Yakyakastain as I get this weird feeling in my body. I don't know what it was, but I have a feeling that we are not alone.

----------------------------------------

Up on the mountain side were sixteen Diamond Dogs all holding spears. The two of them in the middle were both Shih Tzus and are both brown. Each of them had a scar on their eyes the one on the left had a scar on his left eye and the one on the right had a scar on his right. They both look down and see a Pegasus, a Changeling and an Argonian. They look at each with devious smiles on them.

"Shall we go, brother?" The one on the left ask with hint of interest.

"Yes, let's go," The one on the right replied with an evil grin on his face.

The two Shih Tzus turn their attention to the sixteen Diamond Dogs who looks at them waiting for orders. "Okay, Dogs, GO AFTER THEM!!!!" 

----------------------------------------
> Chapter 10: Ambush ( Pebblestone Part 1 ) (Edited 11/19/17)
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

We kept on walking to the snowy mountains until Flash stops us with his right wing. "What are you doing?" Thorax ask, only to be shush by him.

"Do you hear that?" He ask us, but we shook our heads meaning no. He held up his ears in the air and his eyes were wide as dinner plates when he heard the sound of shouting. He turn to us and shouted. "We have an ambush coming!"

I ready myself with my ice staff while Thorax was doing his boxing stance as he was shaking. The shouting was getting louder and louder and something or some creatures were landing on the snow as they made holes out of them, sixteen to be corrected. Then, there was sixteen figures popping up from their holes and they reveal themselves to be Diamond Dogs. However, these Diamond Dogs were Husky-like Dogs from black and white to gray and white. Each of them pulled out their spears and were pointing them at us when they surround us in a circle. 

"You three. You come. To us. Now," said the one in the middle. He was closely pointing his spear at Flash.

"And what if we refuse?" he ask, fixing him with a glare while the husky Diamond Dog glared back at him.

"You. Will. All. Die," he replied still keeping his spear at him. The rest of the Dogs were getting closer to us with their spears getting closer too.

Thorax looks scared when he was backing away from them. "I'm too young to die," he said, still keeping them away from him.

I didn't want to go with them and neither did they, so I did the most craziest  move ever. I use my ice staff and created a snow storm at them, causing them to cover their eyes. This gave Flash a chance to fight when he punch the Husky Dog with his left hoof. The Husky Dog got up and glared at us when he grabbed his spear. I have a feeling we are gonna be in a fight for our life.

He pointed his spear at us. "Kill them!" He shouted with rage. The Diamond Dogs all howl in anger and picked up their spears to charge at us. 

Knowing that we were gonna be fighting, Me, Flash and Thorax ( who was still shaking ) were in for a fight. 

Flash took to the air and pointed his hoof at them as if he is ready to charge at them.

"Attack!"

"Get them!"

"We're gonna die!"

We charged into battle as Flash swoops right around two Diamond Dogs and boink their heads together. The other one nearly caught him with his spear, but Flash manages to dodges it. He keeps moving left and right making sure not to get stab. Thorax was just standing there looking on at the battle, but then one of those Dogs creep up to him and grabs him from behind. He tried to wiggle his way out, but the grip of this Diamond Dog was strong. Thorax use his transformation to turn into a skunk and blasted him with his stench. 

The Diamond Dog let's him go as he covers his nose from his oder. "Sorry, if I farted," Thorax apologize to him.

I was dealing with at least four of them when they surround me. Of course, those bastards don't know what I can do. I turn myself invisible in front of them, making them speechless. "Hey, where did the Lizard?" ask one of the Diamond Dogs.

"He's gone."

"Find him."

"With scent."

They use their noses to find my scent to look for me. I tried my best not to be found, but unfortunately, one of them picked up my scent and pointed to where I was standing. Before he could call out to his friends to where I am, I use my ice staff to stab this Dog right in the forehead and through the brain, plus killing him. 

The other three looks in horror when his friend collapses dead on the snow. I made myself visible when I pull my ice staff off of him to clean out the blood on my spear tip. The Diamond Dogs looked at me in shock and anger. "Next."

The three Diamond Dogs charged at me, but I was ready for that as I use my ice staff to freeze all three of them in their place. They were all frozen solid and I got to say, they look funny when their frozen like that. I run up to the three frozen Dogs and use my tail to whip those frozen Dogs when my tail hits them, they were shattered into ice, blood and Doggy chucks. 

"Sub-Zero, eat your hurt out," I said, looking proudly at what I did despite how gruesome it was to do that.

Flash meanwhile is still struggling with that Husky Diamond Dog who tries to stab him but to no avail. "Stay. Still!" he barked, still trying to stab him.

"Never!" Flash shouted back at him. He was starting to get tired and it looks like he's about to stop. But that didn't happen when another Diamond Dog punches the Husky Diamond Dog in the face and took his spear away. He stab him in the chest with it and killed him.

Flash stops in shock and confusion as well as panting so hard. "Why...did you...kill him...?" he ask, between pants.

The Diamond Dog looked at him with a smile and transforms to reveal himself to be Thorax. 

Flash looks speechless but he manages to spoke. "Thorax?" 

Thorax blushes a bit about that stunt he pulled. "Yeah, it's me. I don't really like killing but I just don't want you to die."

"Well, thanks. But, that doesn't mean were friends and never will," Flash said as he regain his strength to fly up a few feet. "Now, come on, I know you don't like killing, but this is our way to survive from those mutts."

Flash took to the air to battle the next pack of Dogs while Thorax just sighs. "I wish I wasn't here right now."

The fight was getting intense here as I use my ice staff to make five icicles and threw them at the Diamond Dog right in the arms, legs and face. He falls down dead in the snow. "Man, don't these guys surrender?" I ask to no one around.

Two more Dogs were getting ready to pounce on me, but I twirl my ice staff and created an icy tornado to not only trap those Dogs but to freeze them in place. I punch both of the frozen Diamond Dogs into pieces as I shook my claw after punching them like that.

Flash and Thorax were still in a tight struggle as it was only them against six Husky Diamond Dogs. Thorax turn into a shield to protect Flash from the spears thrown by them and they only hit him in his shield form. Flash uses this to fly up and swoop down and bash them one by one. He landed on the ground and set Thorax down. Thorax morph back to his normal form and rubs his head with his hoof. 

"Ow, that really hurt," He said, getting a headache after being use to bash the Diamond Dogs' head in the skull.

--------------------------------------------------

Up above them, the Shih Tzu twins were looking down at the fight that was going on here and none of them look happy about it.

"This is insane. We need to end this now," said the one on the left.

"Agreed. You got those poison darts?" ask the one on the right. 

The left Shih Tzu Diamond Dog made in evil smile as he showed his twin brother three poison darts that he took out from his pocket.

The Shih Tzu twins let's out a couple of evil snickers as they got ready to throw them at Flash, Thorax and Razor.

------------------------------------------------

The battle between us and the Diamond Dogs felt like forever, we were really doing great so far, but we were getting tired. We only had to deal with four of them and we should be done. I heard Flash scream in pain. I turn and see that his neck was hit by a little purple dart.

"Flash!" Thorax scream, running up to the pegasus guard. He catches him in his hooves and use his magic to remove the dart before tossing it away. "Flash, what happen to you?"

He responds with a cough, but he manages to speak but in faint words. "Poison....darts...very...lethal...not....feeling...good."

Flash was turning very pale as he passed out. Then, another one land right into Thorax and he too was getting pale. He drops him on the snow and collapses. 

"Flash! Thorax! No!" I shouted at what I seen. Another dart landed right in my neck and I assume that I was gonna get poison. However, it didn't work on me when I remembered that I am immune to being poison. I must be lucky to be an Argonian. 

I turn around and notice that the four remaining Diamond Dogs were getting ready to attack. But before they can, a new voice was heard. "Stop!"

They did as they were told and each two move from side to side. I look down and see two Pony size Diamond Dogs that look like Shih Tzus. Each of them supporting scars on each eye. They both had smirks on their faces when they walk up to me.

"Fascinating," said the one on the right. "You shrug off that poison dart like it was nothing unlike your two friends here.

"Yes, you impressed us. But, that doesn't mean we are gonna let you go and heal your friends....at least not yet," the one on the left said, adding those last four words with an evil smile.

I took out my weapon and pointed at them. "If you don't mind me asking, who are you two?"

They both look at each other and turn to me with their still evil grin. "I'm Fin and this is my twin brother Fan and we are the alphas of Pebblestone."

Pebblestone? That seems a little fruity. "Why did you send you're Dogs to attack us?"

They only laugh at my question but quickly stop to give me an answer. Fan was the first one to speak. "My friend, we did not mean any harm."

This got me and those Diamond Dogs to give them a strange look. Fin and Fan gave the Dogs a terrifying look which make them quickly agree with their leaders. "That's right, we just need your help."

"Help? Help!? How about you help out my friends by curing them," I said, pointing my ice staff at the pale skins of Thorax and Flash.

Fin chuckles. "Oh, we would love to do that. But, you got to help us first and then we can help your friend."

I lowered my weapon and gave them a suspicious look. I don't know what kind of help they need, but I don't like where this is going. Then again, Fin did say he was going to help out my friends after I help them. 

"What do you need help with?" I ask them. Neither of them didn't answer me as the one on the right name Fan motions the Diamond Dog on the right to get closer to me. When that Diamond Dog was about seven inches away from me, he grab me by the shoulders and head butted me. I was starting to get tired after that and I felt my vision go black.

Intro

I woke up and found myself in the dream realm again and I was human again. I am starting to get a feeling that Princess Luna is gonna show up right about....now.

Princess Luna appears in a form of a blue cloud and transform into her Alicorn form. I was amazed by her spell but when I look at her she seems to be a bit curious about something. "Is something wrong Princess Luna?" I ask her.

She shook her head. "No, but I am wondering about how you three lost to the Diamond Dogs?"

"You saw that?"

"Yes."

"Wait, how can you see what where doing?"

"Well, I'm not just a princess of the night but also a goddess as well."

"You're joking right?"

Princess Luna didn't like that as she use her Canterlot voice. "YOU DARE NOT BELIEVE ME!? HOW DARE YOU, FOOL! I AM PRINCESS LUNA AND YOU WILL NOT DENIED ME! IS THAT CLEAR!!!!???"

"Ahh, Yes! Yes! jeez, I hear you," Damn, hear voice is so loud I almost went deaf. 'keyword' deaf.

She cleared her throat to relax her voice. "Good. I'm glad we have an understanding. Now then, you see every god and goddess has to watch their piece do what they do and see what they are up to."

"Is that bad?" I ask while cleaning my ears from her shout.

"It depends on how they do. If a piece decides to quit or wants to be with another god or goddess, they will be aloud, but they need permission from said god or goddess," She stated firmly.

Wow, I never knew that. I know I'm new to this game but I gotta say, I don't think I ever want to leave here or be with someone else.

Princess Luna snaps me out of my train of thought when she started talking. "Razor, I'm not mad at you, but disappointed."

Wait, she's disappointed at me? Why? "What do you mean?"

"What I mean is that you have use the ice staff as a toy and not as a weapon. You could have frozen Flash Sentry or yourself," She must be bluffing....Or is she? Princess Luna gave me a hard look but deeply sighs "Look, Razor, while the ice staff is a weapon, it's very unpredictable it can freeze anyone from the insides as well as freezing any place in the larger area."

I never knew it could do that to your insides. "So, you want me to not kill anypony."

She gave me a glance and spoke. "While I'm not a type of Princess who loves a good slaughter, you must only use it to injured enemies and not kill them. If you kill even a signal pony by freezing his inside, I will not only banned you from using that weapon but also sent you back to your world."

Is she serious? She'll send me back to my world if I kill even a single Pony. I don't know why, but she must be like Batman and I'm the Damien Wayne of this world. I look down at my feet as if I was feeling guilty for what I've done before I look up and gave her a questionable look. 

"Can I kill monsters with my weapon?" I ask her while she looks at me like I was asking the most stupidest question in the world.

"I be lying if I said you can't," That made me feel better a bit. So, don't kill Ponies but kill monsters.

I gave her a hug and a kiss only for me to realize what I was doing. I let go of her and we both stared at each other with our eyes wide. Princess Luna was the first one to break the silence but changed the subject. "It seems that I've over stayed my welcome."

"Yeah I guess so," I said, feeling a bit red in the cheeks. Did I kiss her again? What the hell is wrong with me? I don't wanna think about this, I love her but I'm not in love with her am I?

Princess Luna slowly use magic and points her horn at me. 

"What are you doing?" I ask, raising my arms up in the air in fear.

She didn't look mad but her face must be a bit shy. Her horn glows brighter and I heard her said "It's time to be awake and me to go back to Canterlot. Just remember what I told you.

I didn't get chance to talk to her as her horn blast me awake with a jump.

I woke up and see that I'm an Argonian again as well as seeing myself in a Dungeon.

------------------------

I got up to rub my eyes to make my sights clear. I started walking only to feel something pulling me.

I look at my wrist and ankles and see that I was in chains. The wrost part is that I was attached to the wall where the chains are connected. "What the hell? Why am I in chains and where the hell am I?!" I shouted, hoping for someone to answer and sure enough, someone did answer.

"Your in Pebblestone Dungeon. A place for Ponies and other creatures to become slaves to the Diamond Dogs," said a voice that sounded like a male with a surfer dude voice.

Then another voice chimed in and this one sounded so cheerful. "Yeah, but don't worry, it's not so bad."

"Are you kidding me? We are slaves here and I hated it."

"I'm sure it will be fun if you give it a chance. Besides, work is fun!"

"Not the way we do it."

"Come on, I got my cutie mark."

"That's not a cutie mark,"

"And how would you know?"

"Because, your a Griffin and Griffin's can't get cutie marks!"

"Well, I got mine from three little fillies the other day."

Wait a minute? a Griffin? could it be? I look towards the voices from the wall on the left which is dark and I notice two figures. one was Pony shape while the other was Griffin shape. I know I seen these two before but I can't put my finger on it. "Excuse me?" They both turn to face me with a glance. "Do you mind stepping into the light? I wanna see your faces."

They did as they were told and they both step into the light at the same time. The first one I saw was a white Earth Pony stallion with white mane who's cutie mark was a pair of skies and the other was a grey Griffin who looks like she has a head of Falcon and possibly the legs of domestic house Cat. She looks like she was happy despite being in the cell with me and him.

"Hi, My name is Gabby and I am a Cutie Mark Crusader! See I got my cutie mark," She showed me the round wooden badge that has the same symbol of one of the Crusaders.

The white Earth Pony rolls his eyes before speaking "I'm Double Diamond and I am a ten time Ski Racing Champion! I am great for my awesome stunts like the 'Double Trouble' and the 'Diamond's Edge'. So' what's your name?"

"My name is Razor and I am an Argonian," I said.

Both Gabby and Double Diamond gave me a confused look until Gabby broke the silence. "What's an Argonian? I mean aren't you a Lizard?"

I was stun by that. How can they not see Argonian? I mean for god-sake, it's not like they don't have reptiles in Equestria Pinkie Pie has a pet Alligator name Gummy and he's reptile. Rainbow Dash has a pet Tortoise name Tank and he's a reptile. If this show has actual Argonians here, This wouldn't be problem for them. 

"Argonians are Lizards but like you two, they are sentient. Also, we live in Black Marsh." They both shuddered at what I said.

"You live in Black Marsh? That's where the zombies, skeletons, ghost and vampires live," Gabby said, holding herself in fear.

Double on the other hand looked like he seen a ghost. "Dude, that place is not a good place to live and I am so glad I don't live here."

'Who wouldn't?' I ask myself mentally. I may want to go there when I find away to escape. I bet it would look just like Halloween Town from The Nightmare Before Christmas. I decided to change the subject. "How did you two get caught?"

"They ambush me when I was practicing my new Skiing tricks about yesterday," Double said, looking like he has pouting.

"I got ambush by them when I was trying to take a short cut to get home about two days ago," Gabby chimed in, feeling sad about that answer. "What about you, Razor?"

"I got ambush by them when I was going to Yakyakstain. I tried to fight them off but they were strong as hell," They seem to be shocked about how I fought the Diamond Dogs even though I was defeated by them.

"You battle the Diamond Dogs when they ambush you? Dude, you are so awesome!" Double exclaim with much cheer in his voice.

"You rock! WHOO-HO-ACK!" Gabby flew back down as she remembered that she was chain to the wall like us, but was round her waist. "I forgot about that. I wish I could fly again."

I feel sorry for that Griffin. She must really want freedom as much as we do. I then realize I was forgetten something. "Hey, you guys wouldn't happen to know where Thorax and Flash are would you?"

They both gave me another confused look until Gabby's eyes shot up as if she remembers. "You mean the orange Pegasus and the Changeling? Yeah I know where they are."

I was relieved to hear her say that. "You do? where?" But before she can answer, the cell door opens and the big Diamond Dog steps inside as he looks down at us with a sneer.

This made the three shook in fear due to his scary look on his face. He then looks at Gabby and Double. "You two. Step back," They did as they were told when the big Diamond Dog stomps towards me and unchain me with his key he had in his hand.

"Am I free to go?" I ask him, hoping I would be free to see my friends and leave this place.

The big Diamond Dog looks at me and shook his head. "No. You meet Fin and Fan. Now."

"Why?" I ask with my eyebrow raise. 

"You'll find out. Lizard. Now hold still." He pulled out a rope and tied me up by the arms and waist. I tried to get out of them but they were tight real good.

"Why am I tied up when I was in chains?" I ask, giving the big Diamond Dog a glare.

He smiles at my expression before speaking. "Fin and Fan wants me to make sure you don't run away, little Lizard. Now move."

He motions me to move and I did. I turn my head and took one final look at Double and Gabby who both seem so worried about what they are gonna do to me.

'I hope to god they don't eat reptiles,' I thought to myself not wanting to speak out loud.

Outro
> Chapter 12: The Deal ( Pebblestone Part 3 ) ( Edited 11/22/17 )
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

I was being escorted by the big Diamond Dog while being tied up. And before you ask, no. This is not a fetish thing. I mean I'm being tied up so I don't run off or anything ( not that I was planning on it ).

As we made our way to the throne room, the place was huge. How huge? I mean like Skyrim throne room huge. The place has gems on each side of the wall, the banners had the pictures of paws with the pebbles on above them and there was even two thrones where the two twin alpha Dogs were sitting. 

The Guard Dog stops me before I could get closer to them.

"On knees. Now," The Guard Dog hits me in the head with the back of his spear, making me land on my knees. Fin motions the Guard Dog to untie me and he did. 

I look at my clawed hands and bend them a bit to get some good reflexes. I see Fin and Fan looking down at me with smirks on their faces. 

"Did you enjoy your cell?"

"We hope you made friends with the Pony and Griffin."

They both snickered to themselves about the commits they made. I wanted to get up but that Guard Dog was looking at me with his stone cold stare. I rolled my eyes when they stop snickering. "Where are they?"

"They? They who?" Fan ask, pretending that he doesn't know what l'm saying.

I gritted my teeth. "You know who I'm talking about. Where are Thorax and Flash?"

They both look at each other and then back to me and back to each other and back to me. They gave me a blank stare until Fin had a face of realization when he smiles. 

"Oh yes, your friends," he said.

"They are okay....until twenty four hours," Fan said, adding those four worlds with a smug look on his face.

"I want to see them!" I demand, only for the Guard Dog to hit me with his backside of his spear again.

"You. Don't. Talk. To. Masters. Like. That," he said, growling.

Fin held up his paw, motioning him to stop. "It's alright, Big Paw. If he wants to know where they are, then will show them."

Fan snaps his fingers to get the other two Guard Dogs to go in the red curtains and pulled out a huge cage from it. The cage looks like a giant bird cage with gold on each side. 

"Why don't you take a look," Said Fan.

"Yes, your friends are in there," Fin agrees.

I got up and walk up to the huge cage to have a look inside and to my horror, they didn't look so good.

Both Thorax and Flash were sickly pale green, they have huge lumps all over their legs, Flash's eyes were droopping while Thorax's eyes were delilated. What horrifies me more is that they both have greenish white salva out of their mouths. This could mean one thing: the poison has taken in effects on them. 

I backed away from the cage with a terrified look. I was quite sad and scared. I didn't want them to die, I needed them to live. I turn to Fin and Fan who both had fake frowns on their faces.

"Oh what a sad fate for these two," said Fin with a fake sad voice

"True. So true. But who would do such a thing?" Fin and Fan started to do a fake sob before they started laughing.

They both spoke in unison. "We would!"

They both laugh again while I gritted my teeth in angry. Those two bastards have done it, they are gonna get their asses kick and that's what I'm gonna do.

I charge up to them, but I didn't expect the twin Diamond Dog alphas to pull out their diamond sword from each side of their throne and pointing it at me about three inches from my neck.

The diamond swords were long and it looks like they were heavy for a anyone small but not Fin and Fan. Those two look like they are strong enough to hold them with no problem.

They gave me an evil look. "Trying to attack us without letting us tell you our deal? That's quite uncalled for."

"Low blow, Lizard. Low blow," said Fin, shaking his head in disappointment. I look at them for a few minutes before I back away a bit as they put their diamond swords away.

I gave them a questionable look. "What kind of deal?"

"Why this deal involves the lives of your two friends," said Fin.

"Yes and we got in offer you can't refuse," Fan chimed in. He just quote that line from The Godfather.

"I'm listening," I said with my left eyebrow raise.

Fin clears his throat to speak. "We have a cure for your friends that we'll help them if you agree to compete in a battle to the death."

A battle to the death? That's why they kidnap us and poison my friends? What the hell? Normally I would be excited about this and go all Mortal Kombat on any one, but after that stunt they pulled, I'm not sure about this.

"Okay, one: where's the cure and two: a battle to the death? I smell something fishy," I said skeptically.

The Guard Dog raise his paws and lowered his head as if he did something bad. "Sorry. Me farted."

The two alpha twin Dogs both wave their paws by telling him to leave. He leaves the throne with his head down in shame. We then look at each other and then Fan spoke. "The cure is in my pocket but we won't give it to you until you win the battle."

"If you refuse, your friends will die of poisoning while you die of beheading," Fin added those next word.

I knew this was no good. I had two choices to make. Battle to the death or let Thorax and Flash die of poisoning while I get beheaded. I let out a defeated sigh and look up at them who had smirks on each of them.

"Okay. I'll do it. But first I need to know how long do they have to live?" I ask with a serious look on my face.

They both smiled and Fin was the first one to talk. "Excellent! We can't wait to see you in action. Also to answer your question, they got about twenty four hours to live until they die."

"Yes. That poison will kill them in twenty four hours, but we are glad you accept," Fan said, clapping his paws together.

I felt like having a panic attack when I heard Fin say that Thorax and Flash got twenty four hours to live before they both die of poisoning. Knowing that I don't have to debate, I look up at Fin and Fan who they both have smug looks on their faces.

"Now I believe it's time for you to meet your roommate/opponent," This got me a confused look.

'Did he say opponent?' I ask in my mind to myself. 

"My opponent is also my roommate? Who's my opponent?" None of them didn't respond as I felt a big fist pounded on my head and was feeling sleepy.

---------------------------------------

"I really wish you'd wake up so I could have someone to talk to."

I was starting to hear a faint but sadden voice. It sounded male. I felt someone kicking me with a foot, making me cough as I woke up. I hold my gut to were the kick has been. I open my eyes and my vision was blurry for a good nine seconds.

When my vision became clear I was no longer in the Throne room or the Dungeon with Gabby and Double, instead I'm in an Underground Pit as well as being inside a wooden cage.

"How nice of you to join us we was about to be given our in flight meal." I look around wondering who said that. Then, I turn around and I found out who was talking behind me. To my surprise, it was a huge Rat and judging by that look, I say he was pissed at something from down below. I don't know why, but I think I shouldn't ask him that and decided to change the subject.

"Hey, what the hell is this and who the hell are you?" I ask him with a confused look on my face. 

The huge Rat turn around and look at me with a awkward look and replied. "My name is Tailon and I am a Nightstalker. Who are you?"

Now it was my turn to replied. "I'm Razor and I'm an Argonian."

I smirk like I was the cool kid in High School. I then got a good look at the Nightwalker ( which I didn't care why he was called that ). He was dressed in black and dark blue clothes, he has a lot of straps around his body, even under his cloak, they look like they hold a lot of things. 

Tailon slowly looks back from the cage like he wasn't feeling comfortable around me. He then turn back to me with the look of suspicion. "Argonian...Sure."

'What the hell is wrong with him? Is he afraid of Reptiles?' I ask in thought with a confused look.

"What are you in for or should I start calling you Dragonborn? Seeing as you look a little Dragony," Okay, seriously? What the hell? How does he know about Skyrim?

He then wraps his tail around one of the wooden bars and this Rat was now staring at me in a creepy way. This guy is starting to bug me.

I then notice his eyes are glowing yellow. Either he's Discord in disguise or that's how this Rat greet new visitors.

Just then, the wooden cage gets lowered to the ground and we saw Fin and Fan and the Guard Dog who was pulling the rope down which connects to the wooden cage we were in.

I look at them for a moment until I notice that behind them were two cages. One on the left is Thorax and Flash who are still looking ill and on the right is Gabby and Double Diamond who both seem paranoid. 

"Why are they here?" I ask, looking back at them.

"The Changeling and the Pegasus Pony are gonna be with us so that way we won't have any funny business during the battle and the Griffin and the Earth Pony are gonna be with us so they can have front row seats to watch you fight that Nightstalker next to you," Fin replied as he pointed at Tailon who seems annoyed.

Before I can ask them, Fin and Fan headed out and the two Guard Dogs carried two wooden cages with their super strength and started to leave. 

The two alpha Dogs stop and so did the Guard Dogs as Fin turns his head a bit and eyes on me and Tailon. "By the way, you two have twenty minutes to get ready. We’d start heading to the back room if we were you two."

He chuckled along with his twin brother before they continued to leave.

I turn to face Tailon who was glaring at me for some reason as if to say 'I blame you for this.'.

"I am gonna die," I said to myself under my breath.
> Chapter 13: Lizard vs Rat ( Pebblestone Part 4 )
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Me and Tailon were lead out of the cage when it was open and the two of us were sent to another room. We were in the weapons room and we saw a bunch of diamond dog guards, I look around and I see that some of them were watching me like I was gonna do something bad.

I then hear a hiss and turn around to see Tailon make that sound he made. It sounded so horrifying and if I had ears, I would be plugging them. I then, notice that all the guards jump and cover their ears as if they here a Dog whistle. ‘Damn, that must’ve hurt their ears,’ I thought to myself before I turn and these two pointing their weapons at each other. 

“Where’s the rest of my stuff?” Tailon ask the other Dog, with venom in his voice. The other Dog looked at me and Tailon who laying the floor like a scary Cat.

“In the armory.” He replied as Tailon moved around looking at all the other weapons giving his sword a few test swings.

The way he swings his sword was amazing. Although, I do have to fight to the death. I pick up a sword of my own until Tailon started talking to me? 

“Deal still the same? I kill him you let me go?” He said.

I gave him a surprise look. ‘He wants to kill me? Like hell he will!’ He turns around and sees my surprise look I’m giving. 

The Diamond Dog guard growled at the Rat’s demand. “Yeah, yeah! Hurry up.”

I grab a sword before the guard pushed me to move which was rude. I didn’t want to yell at him or I would be screwed big time. I look at Tailon who was smiling at the diamond dog guards. 

Okay, seriously? Why is he smiling? Is like a double agent or something? I have feeling that this fight will be weirdest battle ever.

We went into a large fighting pit and there was a lot of crowd here as we both went into the middle of the area. I wonder if my friends are around? I then heard that rat ask me a random question.

“Who do you think is cooler? Fluttershy or Twilight?” He ask me as I give him a blank stare. Was he asking me that now? What the hell is he a fanboy?

I guess I should play along? “If I had to choose, I say Fluttershy and also this place looks like something out of a Samurai Jack episode,” I replied, only to realize that he must have actual friends. “Hey, wait a minute, how do you know Fluttershy or Twilight? Are you friends with them?” 

He shook his head must mean no. So, I guess they haven’t. If they did, Twilight and Fluttershy would scream in horror when they see a giant talking rat.

I then hear Fin and Fan chuckling, making us turn our attention to them. “Oh, you two. Can you please just fight each other already?” 

“Yes, it will be boring if you two started talking all day and not fight,” Fan said while snickering. “Because remember, you two have to fight each other to death. Two fighters entered, one fighter leaves.”

God I hate them so much.

Fin called out the Diamond Dog Guards to leave us but I ran up to the twin and gave them a glare. “When this is over, I want my friends cured and free and you will do that, won’t you?”

They look at each other and then back at me with in evil smirk on each of them. 

“But of course, Razor. We would never forget about that,” said Fan.

“But if I were you, I’d start thinking about survival here,” Fin chime in as he and his brother laugh evilly.

They both stop laughing and shouted in unison. “Begin!”

I turn around to find my opponent, but I see him backing away from the shadows. I don’t know what he’s up to, but if he thinks that hiding in shadows is gonna help him, then he must be scared to face me.

“Oi, where did the Rat go?” one of the Diamond Dogs called out. His question is as good as mine.

He can’t just vanish. This place was guarded and there is no way in or out unless one of wins. I started looking around for him. The crowd was booing as I try to find Tailon.

‘Does he have invisibility powers?’ I thought to myself while still searching. I then hear his voice somewhere.

“You know, you could have come here as anything you wanted so you pick the one thing that stand out the most like a sore thumb. You should’ve thought about this more carefully,” Why the hell is he telling me this. I started to look around from the crowd faster but I still don’t see him. “Do you even fully understand why we’re here?”

Of course I do? But the question is does HE know why he’s here? This made me clench my fist in annoyance. “Yeah, to win so I can get the cure for my friends.”

“Fool. This isn’t about them, this is about you, me and the others who were sent here. We were sent here to fight for our lives to entertain them! You really don’t understand how this world works do you?” Tailon said. I had enough of this. I use my nose to pick up his sent and sadly, it wasn’t working. 

The Diamond Dogs were yelling impatiently as nether of us aren't making a single blow. I’m getting sick of this! Why won’t he just come out and fight me!?

Then I hear him ask me a question that I didn’t expect from him. “ The only question I want to know is will you help me escape?”

He wants me to help him escape? Will I guess if he wants to go, then I shouldn’t say no to that. I nodded when suddenly, Tailon came out of the shadows to punch me but I block it.

I hope that playing Soul Calibur V will really pay of. He swords swings his sword at me as I jump back away in time from the blade.

“What are you doing!?” I ask him. He didn’t say anything as he ran up to me with his punches and kicks but I manage to keep up with him. However, he cut my arms, legs and even under my eyes. I was lucky to still see after that.

He kick me in the gut so hard that I fell to my knees. At this rate I won’t be able to help my friends get the cure. They’ll be dead if I die too. I manage to get up and I notice he was grinning. “Why are you smiling?”

He only replied as he got ready to fight again. “Oh you want to know why I’m smiling? Let’s just say I know more then you do.”

I’ll show him. I swung my sword at him, everytime I keep swinging he just keeps moving. Why won’t he hold still. Then hear metal boots clinging but I ignore that when this rat stop moving and gives me the opening I need. Kick him in the chest as he is sent flying in the air and landed on his back.

‘I have you now.’ I thought to myself doing my best Darth Vader impression. He got up still smiling like that. 

“They’re coming,” He whisper to me. Who the hell is coming? He got up and this time he shouted loud enough for all of us to here. “They’re here!” 

Without warning, the Diamond Dogs burst into flames and the crowd screams in horror as I hear a musket shot. What the hell is going on here?

I turn around and notice that Tailon was gone and then I look around and found him in the panic of screaming Diamond Dogs talking to other Rats. They must be his friends. Friends? 

My eyes went wide of the realization. “Carp! I gotta save Thorax and Flash Sentry now!” 

I ran to the entrance way and went to the halls, hoping they will lead me to Fin and Fan’s throne room. “Fin! Fan! I’m coming for you!”
> Chapter 14: Double Trouble ( Pebblestone Part 5 )
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

I needed to have a word with those two assholes as I kept running and running. I stop when I see that my ice staff was in the hands of the Diamond Dog Guard in the weapons room. He was using it as back scratcher. 

If he shoves it up his ass, I'm gonna kick it. I turn invisible and tip toe slowly to him without making a sound, but sadly, I end up farting. 'Crap!' I thought loudly in my head. The Diamond Dog Guard sniffs the air and plugs his nose in disgust. 

"Ugh, What smells here?" he ask, with his nose being hold. I see that he drop my ice staff and it was my chance to pick it up and use it.

I made myself visible in front of him. Before, he can alert the guards, I froze him in solid ice and kept him there. "That should cool you down," I said, before I left the weapons room. I continued on down the hall and was stopped when I notice that four more were coming after me. I was in no mood for this.

I use my ice staff and shot out four icicles at each of them as they went into their heads plus killing them. They collapse to floor, giving me a chance to keep moving.

Twenty minutes of running into the hallway and murdering these mutts, I finally found the big door which leads to the throne room of where Fin and Fan are hiding my friends. However, it was guarded by the big Diamond Dog Gaurd who was just sleeping. 

I didn't have time for him to wake up and leave so I call out to him. "Hey, you stupid mutt!" This got him to wake up and looks in front of me. "I bet you can't catch me since I'm faster then you!"

The Diamond Dog Gaurd growl in anger and roars loudly. He then ran on all fours while I use my ice staff again to freeze the overgrown wolf in ice. The now frozen Diamond Dog Guard was slipping into the wall and he slams into wall and shatters to piece. Now that he was dead, I can go inside.

I ran the big door and open it. I step inside and I see them sitting in their throne room giving me their evilest grin ever. They are gonna die! 

I pointed my ice staff at them with threatening  look. "Where are my friends!?" I ask them very angrily.

They only laugh at my question before Fan replies. "Why their here but we have to tell you the truth."

The truth? "What are you talking about? Is there something you aren't telling me?"

"Yes there is. You see, we do have the cure, but we never give it to anypony," Fin said.

"Even though that most of them have succeed in winning, they still don't get the cure for their friends or family," Fan added with a devious look. What the hell? Those two never give the cure for anyone? This is just plain evil. Pure. Simple. Evil! 

"What do you do with the ones that are dying or sick?" I ask, hoping they don't do anything bad.

They kept their evil smirks and Fin replies. "Why we grind them up and make steaks out of them."

They what!?

"We even make steaks out of our own kind if they end up sick and eat them up. Who know that Diamond Dogs would taste good," Fan said, licking his lips delight.

"So you mean to tell me that you both make steaks out of any creature including Diamond Dogs?! That's disgusting! You're eaten your own kind for crying out loud!"

"We don't care."

"Ever hear the phrase, 'You are what you eat?' Well, that's just how it's gonna be."

"Sooner or later those Diamond Dogs are gonna find out about this and turn against you."

They only laugh at that statement I gave them. "Like they'll believe that. We just tell them that we bury them in the deepest parts of Pebblestone."

I gritted my teeth. "That would mean you two are lying."

"A very convincing lie to be correct," said Fan. "And besides, we can't let them know about our secrets."

"The secret about you two being cannibals!? Yeah, you both are psychos," I snarled at them. 

I got a little closer to them, but Fin stops me by helding up his left law. "Don't make another step or your friends and your cell mates ends up as steaks."

Fan snaps his fingers and the curtains pull up to reveal a large grinder on the floor and above it were Thorax, Flash, Gabby and Double all tied up together hanging in the air with their mouths gagged. They were screaming in muffle for help when they saw me.

My eyes went wide with terror before they shift back to angry when I glare at them. 

"Let them go and give me the cure now!" I shouted in anger.

This only made them laugh some more. "Silly Lizard, do you expect us to just let them go? No. We are still gonna make steaks out of them." Fan said.

"Of course we could always add an Argonian to the ingredient," Fin said.

Fan smiled at his brother's idea. "Oh, I like that a lot. Let's grab him and tie him with the others."

Now, they want to make a steak out of me? Not on my watch! I put use my ice staff to blast some ice at them only for these two to take out their diamond swords and block my attack. These two were prepared. I held my ice staff tightly and got into a fighting stance.

Seeing this, the twin Alphas laugh and regain their composures. "It seems that he wants to fight us. Shall we, Fin?"

"I think we shall, Fan. I always love to play with my food."

They both jump in the air and landed down at me. I jump back abit and got kick in the knees by Fin, making me fall on them and get a roundhouse kick by Fan. I was sent flying to the floor and landed on my back. 

I got up and shot them with my ice staff as icicles comes out. Fin and Fan use their diamond sword to deflect them.

I ran and swung my ice staff at them, but they kept on dodging them. Fin jumps up and kicks my head which sends me flying in the air. I use my ice staff to catch myself by creating a blizzard tornado and landed safely to the ground. I turn just in time to see Fin do in air kick but I grab him by the leg and hung him upside down.

I got him right where I want him. Unfortunately, his brother jumps on my back and starts bashing my head. I let go of Fin who retaliated with a leg sweep. I fell down while Fan got off of me. These two are too tough to beat.

I got up and try to use my ice staff but it was slice in half by Fan’s diamond sword. Before I can attack him, Fin did a running punch to my face and I was sent to the ground on my back. I try to get up, but I was pin down by their surprisingly combine strong weights. They pointed their weapons in front of me near my face.

“Well, it’s been fun and all, but it’s time for some steaks with a side of lizard,” Fin said chuckling.

“Indeed. Once were done eating you and your friends, will also be heading to Canterlot and see if Alicorns are as tasty as steaks. Maybe we should start with the one call Princess Luna,” Fan added who was also chuckling.

“Oh I like the way you think, brother,” Fin said chuckling with Fan.

My eyes shot open when he said that. Did he say he wants to start with Princess Luna? The Princess Luna! The one who sent me here and turn me into an Argonian?! And they’re gonna go to Canterlot and turn her into steak and EAT HER!? I DON’T THINK SO!

I clench my teeth and ball up my right fist and punch Fin off of me, sending him flying to the ground, face first. I grab Fan’s diamond sword and toss it away before I punch him off of me too. I got up and made an angry glare at them. 

They just made the biggest mistake of their LIFE! "I'M GONNA KILL YOU BOTH!" I shouted with an angry hiss. Fin and Fan were in for it now.

I ran up to the Fan and grab him by the neck and toss him to the wall, knocking him out.

I turn to Fin who grab his diamond sword to swing at me. I avoided his swing before I use my tail to snatch his sword away and crush it with my tail.

Fin look scared before he regain his composure. He went on all four and pounce at me but I kick him in the gut and slash his face. He fell down and rubs his cheeks, but he didn’t see me kicking him in the gut. 

He got up and cough some blood. I grab him and continued to punch him repeatedly until I decided to do something else. I twisted his arms off and pull them as he howls in pain. 

“Hurts doesn’t it?” I said through my snarl.

“You bas-“ I cut him off as I pull off his hind legs. There was blood squirting out of his severed legs and he was screaming in pain.

I started to tear his skin off with my claws and began to pull off his intestines. After that, I got up and look at the bloody corpse of the alpha. He was now dead. Fan got up and look at the bloody mess I made. He turns his attention to me and his dead brother and gasp in horror. 

“No! Brother! Brother!” He ran up to his dead brother and look at him in both disgust and horror. He then turn his attention to me and glares at me. “You...murderer! You killed my brother! I’m gonna make you wish you were never born!”

I let out a loud nasty hiss at him and grab him by the throat. “Shut up! Just Shut up! Now listen, I want you to release my friends and give me the cure now and I might let you live or I’ll kill you the same way I killed your twin brother over there. Do I make myself clear?”

He nodded fearfully. “Now give me the cure and release them.”

He pulled something out of his pocket and took out a red bottle. “This is the cure. It will restore their health once they drink it.”

I took it out of his paw and glared at him more. “Good, now get my friends down.”

He runs to the  lever next to the meat grinder and pulls it. The meat grinder closes and the others were being falling down by Fan who cuts the rope with his diamond sword he took. They landed on their rears with a thud as I ran up to Fan and held out his hand.

He gave me a confused look. “What?”

“Diamond sword. Now!” I demanded. 

“What!? But this is mine!” I growl at him in anger by grabbing him as I show him how serious I am and I will kill him. “Okay, Okay! You can have it just don’t kill me.”

I drop him and he falls on his butt. He got up and pulled out his diamond sword with the holister in it and hands it to me. I put the strap around me and look down at Fan angrily. “Keys too.”

He took something out of his pocket and handed me his keys the cell. I put them in my boot armor

“Now get!” I told him with an angry hiss.

He didn’t need to be told twice as he started running out the throne room like a lunatic. I turn my attention to my friends and my cell mates as I ran up to untie them. I took each of their cloths out of their mouths.

“Here. Gives this to them and let them drink it,” I said, giving the bottle to Gabby.

She opens Flash’s mouth and pours some liquid in it. She tries Thorax and does the samething. They close their mouth and gulps it all down. We waited for something to happen.

‘Come on. Come on.’ I thought in my head a bit impatiently. They both slowly open their eyes and were fully awake.

“Wha-what? What happen?” Flash was the first one to speak while rubbing his head with his right hoof.

Thorax look around at his surroundings. “How did he end up here?” 

They both turn to face me, Gabby and Double Diamond. “Razor? Is that you? And who are they?” Flash ask, still holding his head.

“That’s Gabby and this here is Double Diamond and you two were being poison by the alpha twin Diamond Dogs and they were planning to eat you guys by making steaks out of you all. Also, this place is called pebble stone and it’s a cave where Diamond Dogs capture Ponies and Griffins and force them to work in the mines,” I replied without missing a beat. Well, I left that part out about a rat and his friends ambushing the arena.

They gave me a puzzled look before Flash broke the silence. “Well, I take it that you save us seeing as how you must’ve defeat them.”

“Well, I killed one of them and I let other one go,” I told him sheepishly.

They gasp at what I told them. “You killed one of the alphas?! Why!?” Was Flash’s only question. 

Before I answer, Double interrupted. “I know you guys are busy, but we need to leave and free the slaves.”

Flash let out a sigh. “Alright, Razor. Will talk about this later but right now we should leave and free the slaves.”

I nodded in response. “Right, let’s get outta here. Double Diamond and Gabby, how would you two like to join the three of us?”

They both turn to each then to me and they both said “We’re with you us.”

I smiled at that before the five of us leaves the Throne Room.
> Chapter 15: Escaping Pebblestone ( Final Part )
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

We ran straight to the prison cells where we see the Diamond Dog Guards standing near these cells. Knowing that we don’t have time for this, I spotted an oil lamp and a torch nearby and took them.

“What are doing?” Double ask, raising his eyebrow. 

I turn to him with a slick grin. “You’ll find out,” I turn invisible and quietly tip toed behind them and pour started pour the oil out of the lamp oil on one of them and set the mutt on fire. 

He screams in horror while the others tried to put it out, only for them to get themselves on fire too. There are only three of them so I decided to watch them scream and run around before Flash step up and flaps his wings to blow out the fire.

When the fire was out, the Diamond Dog Guards look like skeletons and they turn to black ash. Flash glares at me. “Do you always kill everypony?”

“Only when they try to hurt me,” I shrug but receive a blank stare from all four of them. I then quickly change the subject when I realize what I said. “I mean I’ll get prisoners out.”

I pull out the cell keys from my armor boot and place the key in the key hole and unlock it. I open the door and see three earth pony stallions looking at me with a perplex expression. 

“Who are you and what are you?” Ask the orange stallion.

“My name is Razor. I’m an Argonian and you are all free.” I said, motioning to the open cell door.

The green stallion got up with a smile along with the other two ponies. “I don’t know what an Argonian is, but thank you. Sweet Celestia we’re free! We’re free!”

The other stallions cheered and they got out of the cell their in. I then turn to the other cells and see Ponies, Griffins and Diamond Dogs who were all poking their heads out of the bars. “Don’t worry, you all will be free when I release you all.”

This made them all cheer for joy when they are gonna be happy to be free at last.

I turn to Gabby, Thorax, Flash and Double. “You guys can help out. I’m gonna need You and Flash took keep on the outside and make sure that if more Diamond Dogs show up,” 

Gabby salute but Flash frowns. “I don’t take orders from you.”

“Would you like to be left behind for those mutts to catch you?” I said, warning him.

Flash knew that despite being a Royal Guard he would be outnumbered. There was at least milllions of them living here and half them were persumely eatan by their own Alphas while the rest are imprison or not. He took a deep sigh. “Fine. I’ll do look out.”

He flies up above a bit with Gabby who was watching as well. I turn to Double Diamond and Thorax. “Thorax turn into a key and Double you help him.”

Thorax was engulf in flames as he was now a key. Double Diamond picks him up with his mouth. They went to unlock the cells on the right while I unlock the ones on the left.

About twenty minutes later, all the Ponies, Griffins and Diamond Dogs  were out as they cheered. I whistle to them to be quiet. “Listen up, I need all to come with me and my friends to escape this hellhole.”

“Do you know away?” ask a red Griffin with a raise eyebrow.

To be honest, I’m not sure but I hope if I ran into Tailon again he might know away. I bet he’s been there before. He knows how to get to hell and back.

“Actually yes I do. I want you all to find away out of this place and whatever you do, do not get caught. You all have to try and avoid being spotted. If anyone knows away out, raise your hoof, paw or claws,” a Unicorn mare with a puffy mane and tail who’s coat was somewhat burnt sienna and was wearing Hindu clothing. I don’t know why but she looks familiar. “You. What’s your name?”

The Unicorn replied with a familiar yet beautiful accent. “My name is Saffron Masala and I know away out of this place.”

“Okay, Saffron, lead these everypony to freedom and whatever you do, don’t let any of them get captured,” she nodded at my instructions and lead the slaves out of Pebblestone and I turn to Thorax, Flash, Gabby and Double. “Come guys, we gotta meet someone.”

“Why?” Double ask.

I turn to him with a smirk. “We are gonna see a Rat and his friends,”

They gave me a confused look but decided not to question it as we all left The the cell. It didn’t take us long to find Tailon and his friends when we bump into each other. I gave him a smirk when I pull out my diamond sword to show him. “I got a diamond sword after I killed one of the alpha twin Dogs. The other one escape and he gave me the cure to heal my friends and gave me the keys to free the slaves including Gabby and Double Diamond. Those two are gonna be joining me now.”

I notice there was smoke comingover our heads. I wanted to ask him what he was doing, but he quickly cut me off. “Oh so your friends are okay now? That’s good and you freed the slaves, we need to go now.”

We started to follow him when he ask us. “Anyone know the way out please tell us now!”

Gabby smiled and spoke. “I know the way.”

We stop and look at her, even I couldn’t believe it. 

“You do? Where?” Thorax ask desperately to Gabby.

“It’s down the hall to the right. Let’s go,” She replied when she lead us the way. This makes me want to D’oh out loud, but I said mentally. 

I whispered to Gabby with shock in my voice. “Why didn’t you tell me there was another way out?”

“You didn’t ask me,” she replied with a small giggle. That really got me. Next time I will ask if we get captured again.

It was a really escape but we somehow found the end of the tunnel. “Freedom!” Tailon called out with joy in his face. He must’ve been in the dark too long I just hope his eyes don’t burn.

We then got out and stop when I notice Saffron and the Slaves were outside on the left. I walk up to her with a look of shock. “Saffron? How did you and the others get out of Pebblestone?”

She looks happy and spoke. “We went to light at the end of the tunnel right there.”

I look where she was pointing at and I see that she must’ve use the same one like we took, only they were the first ones out. I facepalm when I realize that we went to the same direction that she and the other slaves went.

‘I can’t believe that we came up second,’ I grumble mentally.

“Plus, I think that maybe I should go with you.”

“Why?”

“To be honest, I like reptiles and they are native to where I’m from. They are a symbol of goodwill.”

So, she believes that reptiles are goodwill to her homeland eh? Well, guess that makes me the luckiest man I mean Argonian to be here. I held up my claw in front of her to shake.

“Saffron, if you want to stay with me, you’ll get to stay with the four of us,” I said in a friendly manner.

She shook my claw with her hoof and puts it down. “Thank you, so much for letting me stay with you, uh Razor was it?” 

I nodded at her question and motion for her to see my friends ( Flash counts as one now. “Saffron, this is Thorax, Flash Sentry, Double Diamond and Gabby.”

“Uh...hi.”

“Hello, Miss.”

“What’s Up, babe.”

“Hi!”

“Please to me you four.”

I then turn to the slaves who were relaxing for a while when I hear two voices arguing. I look over and saw Tailon and another Nightwalker who Tailon calls him buggy. That’s a creepy name. 

“So the plan still a go yes?” Tailon ask him who was shock for some reason. 

Are you crazy! We spent the last two weeks trying to find you and you want to keep going to Equestria? Tailon, this is madness!”

Uh-oh, time for me to do another reference. I cut off Tailon for whatever he was gonna say and say the most famous lines from 300. “This is Sparta!”

That got everyone to look at me like I was a two headed monster. ‘Wow, this is embarrassing,’ I thought to myself, blushing at what I just did. Even my friends were embarrassed my antics.

‘I really wish I had a paper bag to cover my face now.’
> Chapter 16: Camping Out
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Talion took a deep breath and started to speak to get everyone's attention. "Alright boys and girls here's the plan we're going to Equestria, for that to happen we can't stop or slow down that means we need to start walking now. So we need to go?" Is he serious? We just ran away from Pebblestone and escape with our lives and he doesn't want us to rest? What the hell?! He's like Mento from that Teen Titans episode that I watched.

I then hear another rat talking. I think his name was Buggy? That's an odd name for a tall rat.

"Right then that way, I'd suggest you lot follow too the dogs may follows us out of this tunnel and I don't want to be here when that happens," Wait, there are more of them?

Crap! They must be coming after me after I kill one of their leaders. I really wish I was in my world right now.

I felt a tap on my shoulder and turn to see Double Diamond looking at me confused. "Dude, are you okay? You look like you seen a ghost."

I didn't want him to know that I was scared. because you see I am afraid of people coming after me after I did something that got them arrest. It was biggest fear ever. Well, that and I was scared of ants. 

Before I told Double that I was fine, Tailon came up to me and my friends and was giving us a look like a general would. "Listen, I understand you want to rest but if stay here those diamond dogs will come and kill you all."

Thorax raise a hoof. "How long are we gonna be walking?"

"Will stop walking as soon as nightfall. Once we do we will set up Camp," He replied.

Gabby squal with delight. "Oh my gosh, we should totally do that! We can make s'mores and sing campfire songs and tale ghost stories and-"

Gabby was gonna be like the Pinkie Pie of my group and I don't hate. In fact, I only like her because of her voice. ( It sounded so cute. ) As she talking about stuff to do at camp, I turn to Tailon who gave me a weird look.

"Is she always like this?" He ask me, pointing to the griffoness.

I only shrugged. "Would you believe this is the first time seeing speaking like Pinkie Pie?"

Talion only shook his and started moving. I see that his friends were moving so I turn to Flash, Saffron, Thorax, Double and Gabby and clear my throat to get their attention and to make Gabby stop talking.

I motion for my new friends to follow them by pointing at Talion and his friends with my thumb. 

They nodded and we follow them until nightfalls. 

As we walk for two FREAKING hours, I felt like I wanted to rest my legs for a bit but nope, that is gonna have to wait until nightfall Tailon said. To keep myself from getting bored, I just try singing a song to pass the time even if Talion hears me. 

Ooh

Alla

Darling you got to let me know
Should I stay or should I go?
If you say that you are mine
I'll be there 'till the end of time
So you got to let me know 
Should I stay or should I go?

He looks at me with confusion as I kept on singing. 

It's always tease, tease, tease
You're happy when I'm on my knees
One day it's fine and next it's black
So if you want me off your back
Well come on and let me know
Should I stay or should I go?

The others were looking at me strangely while some where enjoying my singing voice. 

Should I stay or should I go now?
Should I stay or should I go now?
If I go, there will be trouble 
And if I stay it will be double
So come on and let me know

I see that Double Diamond and Thorax joining in as they sing in Spanish in the background. I never knew those two could sing in Spanish. I continued singing while they sing back up.

This indecision's bugging me 

( esta indecision me molesta )

If you don't want me, set me free

( si bi me quieres, librame )

Exactly whom I'm supposed to be 

( digame que tengo ser )

Don't you know which clothes even fit me 

( no Sabres que ropas me queda )

Come on and let me know

( me tienes que decir )

Should I cool it or should I blow?

( me debo ir o quedarme )

Split

I see Talion smile a bit and turns around to just let me sing just one song during our which I was planning to. He must've know where this is from, but I don't think he would tell anyone about it if feels like shouting it.

( Doble! ?Me frio o lo soplo? )

( Esperda, Rrattarrattattaa...)

I really like how they are enjoying my singing voice. After all, I was born with a voice of an angel...if an angel was a six foot tall reptile.

Should I stay or should I go now?

( yo me enfrio o lo soplo )

Should I stay or should I go now? 

( yo me enfrio o lo soplo )

If I go, there will be trouble 

( si me voy va a haber peligro )

And if I stay it will be double

( si me quad sera el doble )

So you got to let me know

( me tienes que decir )

Should I cool it or should I blow? 

( me debo ir o quedarme  )

It was time for me to finish this verse of the song and luckily, I had Double and Thorax to finish it for me ( Even if they sing it in Spanish while being my backup singers? )

Should I stay or should I go now?

( tengo frio por hos ojos )

If I go, there will be trouble

( tengo Frio que los ojos ) 

And if I stay it will be double 

( si me quedo sera el doble )

So you got to let me know

( me tienes que decir )

Should I stay or should I go?

Everyone was cheering except Talion who was enjoying my singing just smiles and gives me a chuckle. 

"That was a song called "Should I stay or should I go" I hope My singing voice wasn't bad."

"Are kidding me? That awesome!" Double exclaim happily.

"I enjoy it," said Thorax, looking like he was shy about it.

"For once, I agree with you, Thorax," Flash said with stratified look. "You have voice only a mother could love.

"Thanks....I think?" I said, not sure if that was a compliment or an insult. 

"I hope you're not planning to sing another tune because that was the worst song ever! You young ones really need to work on your vocal cords," said the other rat who I assume must be Buggy that Talion told about during our walk.


------------------------------------


At night we started a campfire to rest. I notice that Thorax was having a nice talk with Gabby who are starting to become friends. It didn't take long for that to happen. I look around the area and I only saw Talion's company and mine who were having a chat with one another pursumely wanted to know each other more. I see Flash have a talk with a Minotaur over to the right. They seem to be getting along.

I look over and it looks like Saffron Malasalsa had the food finish ( Manley food from her home land ). I look over and see that the rats had made food too. "Wow, it smells so good. I can't wait to try the meat," Thorax said, licking his lips with a smile.

"I know! The meat smells so good I can almost taste it," Gabby said with a sequel.

Well, I guess they do have meat. Of course, ponies can't eat it since they are plant eaters, although they did eat eggs so I guess that's technically meat. I on the other hand cannot wait to try it. I haven't had meat in a long time. 

And thankfully, I didn't have to wait long when a night guard shouted "Grubs ready!" My and friends got up to get our food, only to have stern looks on the rats' faces. 

We look a little nervous about it. Do they hate us or were they just too greedy to share the food? I look at my stomach and I shit you not it was growling.

Talion groans and gets the bigger rat's attention. "Go on and let them have some we can always find more food out here somewhere."

I don't believe it. That rat was being nice and here I thought he was greedy. Me and friends well me, Thorax and Gabby went to get the food from large rat. He didn't look happy to meet us, but his expression change when Gabby made those cute puppy eyes at him. He finds it cute and gives the three of us meat.

Flash and Double and the other ponies were getting food from Saffron that was made for ponies. 

"Please, enjoy the meal I made it is my families favorite dish," Saffron said, giving the food to Flash Sentry. He only salute which means thank you in his opinion while Double just smiles at her.

Double and Flash went the large rat who just gave them meat before telling them to sit and eat over there.

We sat back down and when I pick up my spoon to take my frist bite of the meat, I felt like I was in heaven. This meat was so yummy. I look and see the Thorax was just sipping his meal while Flash was stuffing his face like a pig. If Twilight was here she would be gross out by how he eats. I heard Double Diamond asking the rat a question.

"Wow, this is really good what's in it?" I decided to just continue stuffing my face while listening to what he was gonna say.

"Oh you know vegetables, some salt, water, pork, some of the leaks we've found around here," I may not have ears but I can still hear. How you ask, I have know idea but I just do. I then hear three of my friends heading to the bush to puke I think while me and Gabby just kept eating. 

'I guess more for me' I thought while still eating.

After our meals we let our bellies rest up as Thorax and I walk up to Talion to have chat with him. I just hope he's not a angry person. "So, tell me Talion, you seem like the kind of guy who was having a bad day."

He looks at me with scoff before speaking. "Bad day doesn't even begin when you became Thor's Chesspiece through trickery."

Wait a minute, did he say Thor? As in the God of thunder? Son of Odin and Marvel super hero? That Thor!? That lucky bastard.

"You got sent here by Marvel's Avengers' Thor?" He let out a small chuckle.

"Yes and no. He had Discord's help too. Can you believe it?" Discord and Thor? Well I can't say he's crazy. Wait, why would Thor and Discord choose him? I thought only one God can choose a human to enter in the Chess Game.

I answer his question with a slight concern on my face. "I can believe it but you wanna know who sent me here?"

Talion turns to me with a curious look. "Who?"

"Princess Luna," Suddenly, Thorax and I notice that the helmet he was holding was starting to shake and what surprise him and me was a filly version of Nightmare Moon jumping out of the helmet and attacking me.

"How dare you say that name in presents you lizard scum! Princess Luna is dead to me and so are you! I shall eat you and kill your friends too!" She said while straggling me with her tiny hooves. I don't know why, but I find cute and funny.

"What is your problem!?" I ask, still being choke by her. She had a strong grip for a filly. 

Thorax grabs Nightmare Moon with with telekinesis and hissed at her. "Don't you dare hurt my friend!"

I got up to breath and I heard Flash, Double, Saffron and Gabby running up to me while Talion's friends came with angry looks while doing fighting stances. I nodded at my friends before I quickly got up and pull out my diamond sword for battle. My friends did the their own fighting stance and it looks like we are ready to battle.

That his until Talion stops us from doing anything. "Everyone, no fighting! And you, changeling let go of her now!"

That made Thorax drop her while we look a shame. "Now, I know she may look evil but she is my friend," Talion said in a scolding tone.

"Dude, that's Nightmare Moon! My mom read stories about her and how she wants the night to last forever," Double said looking horrified.

Flash steps in. "How can you allow this thing to be with you, Talion?! I want answers rat!"

Talion didn't seem to like that at all. He gave him a angry hiss. "That is none your business."

"Yes it is." 

"No it's not."

"Yes it is."

"No it's not."

"Yes it is."

This looks like it was gonna take forever but luckily Gabby. breaks it up. "Please stop this now! We not here to fight, we are here to rest and enjoy ourselves until morning."

"She’s is right. You two are acting like children," said Buggy who was with Talion on his side. 

They both sigh and look at each with glares in their eyes. "Now I want you two to shake and say sorry."

They both shake hoof and claw before muttering "Sorry."

"Nightmare Moon, why don't you go back to your helmet," Talion instructed her.

She only scoffs but did what she was told. She jump back to his helmet possibly to fall asleep in their.

I walk up to change the subject before things could get worse here then it already did. "So, who wants to sing campfire songs before we go to sleep?"

Saffron raise a hoof. "I will sing. I'm a good singer."

Saffron wanted to sing? I gotta hear this.

"That would be lovely," Thorax said, wanting to hear her sing.

I turn to Talion. "You mind letting her sing a song?" 

He shrug. "It's not like I have a problem. Let's just sit back down and hear her song."

We headed to our usual spot and sat down. "What are you gonna sing?" Gabby ask trying to contain herself.

"It's something my mother sings to me when I was a little filly. It goes something like this," Saffron clears her throat and she use her magic to make a nice soothing music and started to sing.

Dancing to the feel of the drum
Leave this world behind
We'll have a drink and toast to ourselves
Under a violet moon

Tudor rose with her hair in curls
Will make you turn and stare
Try to steal a kiss at the bridge
Under a violet moon

Her singing voice sounds beautiful in person and I just can't denied it. Everypony joined in as they clap to the beat. It was amazing how the song sounded so familiar to me and you know what, it does. But I'm not gonna spoil it.

Raise your hats and your glasses too
We will dance the whole night through
We're going back to a time we knew
Under a violet moon

Saffron really is good. I wonder if they have an American Idol in Equestria? 

Cheers to the knights and days of old
The beggars and the thieves
Living in am enchanted wood
Under a violet moon

Fortuneteller what do you see
Future in a card?
Share your secrets, tell them to me
Under a violet moon

Everypony joins in to clap again to the song and so did I.

Raise your hats and your glasses too
We will dance the whole night through
We're going back to a time we knew
Under a violet moon

Raise your hats and your glasses too
We will dance the whole night through
We're going back to a time we knew
Under a violet moon

The music was really getting to me as smile while tapping to the beat. I stop when my friends gave me a smirk and that made me blush.

Close your eyes and lose yourself
In a medieval wood
Taste the treasures and sing the tunes
Under a violet moon

'Tis my delight on a shiny night
The season of a year
To keep the lanterns burning bright
Under a violet moon


We started clapping to the beat.

Raise your hats and your glasses too
We will dance the whole night through
We're going back to a time we knew
Under a violet moon

Raise your hats and your glasses too
We will dance the whole night through
We're going back to a time knew
Under a violet moon

We then join in once again by being backup singers.

Raise your hats and your glasses too
We will dance the whole night through
We're going back to a time we knew
Under a violet moon

Hey

Raise your hats and your glasses too
We will dance the whole night through
We're going back to a time we knew
Under a violet moon

Hey

Raise your hats and your glasses too
We will dance the whole night through
We're going back to a time we knew
Under a violet moon

Hey

Raise your hats and your glasses too
We will dance the whole night through
We're going back to a time we knew
Under a violet
Under a violet
Under a violet moon

Hey

We gave her around of applause for her best singing voice.

"Wow, that was amazing!" Shouted Gabby, clapping her claws.

Saffron blush a bit. "Thank you. But, it was something I do when I feel lonely."

"Hey, you aren't lonely, you got us. Me, Flash, Thorax, Gabby and Double," I said, motioning to my four friends over here. 

While Saffron was talking to them about how she learn to sing like that, I went up to Tailon to speak to him. "Listen I want to say I'm sorry that Thorax tries to attack the filly version of Nightmare Moon."

He only waved it off. "It's fine, I should be the one to say I'm sorry for letting that happen. I didn't know she was gonna do that."

"I'm guessing she hates people," I said, with a guessing look.

"Nah, she was just...emotional," Emotional? I find that hard to believe.

Talion may have a Nightmare Moon in helmet, but that doesn't mean he's gonna be the new Nightmare Moon right? Can you imagine what he would look like if he was a Nightmare Rat? That will keep me awake. "Talion, do you hate me?"

That got him to raise his head. "What?" He ask me, a bit confused.

"I said, do you hate me?" I repeated a little louder.

"Not really, but you are a bit weird," He replied with a sly smile.

"What's wrong with being weird?"

"Nothing! it's just I'm not use to it that's all. Okay, maybe sometimes but you are a good guy and that's cool. You saved your friends and you killed one of the diamond dog alpha twins."

That is true. I did do that even if I killed one of them. I don't think Talion would be happy if I went all psycho on anyone. It looks like Talion doesn't hate but he finds me weird probably in a good way. 

"Well, it's been nice talking to you but I think I need to go to sleep.We can't leave with bags in our eyes," I told him with a yawn.

Talion nodded in agreement. "Good idea," He got up whistle to every ponies attention. "LEt's get some sleep, folks. We gotta start leaving tomorrow morning if we want to move on."

Gabby raise a claw. "What about breakfast?"

"Well, get some tomorrow before we leave. Now get some shut eye," He said, as he and his friends were laying down on ground to sleep on the left side. The other ponies, and other creatures did the  same thing. 

I turn to my Double, Flash, Thorax, Saffron and Gabby and tell them. "Goodnight guys."

"Goodnight."

"Nightie Night."

"Night, Dude."

"You sleep well lizard."

"And a goodnight to you too, Razor."

I smiled at their responds of how they say goodnight to me. the six of us lay down and sleep I was the last one to close my eyes deeply and was gonna to dream.

When I dream I knew what was gonna happen next.
> Chapter 17: The Team Up
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Fan and half of the diamond dogs were out of Pebblestone that have been destroyed by Razor and his friends.

Fan was standing there with blood filled rage in his mind. He was so furious that his home was gone and more furious that all of the ponies, griffins and even his own diamond dogs have escape. The other dogs looked at their master with fright before he lets out a roar so loud it scares the birds.

"I HATE THAT LIZARD! I HATE HIM AND HIS FRIENDS!" Fan shouted at the top of his lungs. 

The diamond dogs were very scared of him when he's in a bad mood and when he's in a bad mood, he'll become super angry. One of the diamond dogs that was a medium size white one raise his paw in the air. "M-Mr. F-F-Fan!?"

"WHAT!?" Fan ask, turning his attention to his scared white diamond dog.

"A-A-At least Y-Y-You have u-u-us! That m-m-makes you h-h-h-happy, right!?" Fan turn his full body around and walks over to him to bite him in the legs. The white diamond dog howls in pain and bends to his knees. Fan grabs his head and pulls him closer to see eye to eye.

His face was even more redder then ever. "The only thing that would make me happy...IS FOR THAT DAMN LIZARD TO DIE ALONG WITH HIS FRIENDS YOU FOOL!" He shouted, right into his face.

He lets the white diamond dog go as he scurried to the other whimpering diamond dogs. Fan maybe small, but he is the toughest diamond dog alpha in Pebblestone along with his late twin brother.

The other diamond dog raise his paw to say something. "Master!?"

"What do you want!" Fan ask through gritted teeth.

"What about that rat and his friends? We can kill them too," he said, still shaking.

He only scoffs at this. "Let him live. He's not my concern. It's Razor I want!" 

He began stomping around trying to think of a plan to find and get rid of Razor and the others for good. While the diamond dogs were scared of Fan, they do respected him even when he's this mad. 

"I need to get my revenge on that lizard once and for all. When I get done with him, I'll kill that pegasus, that changeling, that earth pony and even that griffon. Then, I shall build a new Pebblestone and I will get new slaves and all of Equestria shall fear me!" His angry voice only made the new voice laugh.

"You think you can do all that even if you only have half in army? How pathetic."

Fan turns to face his scared diamond dogs. "Which one of you cowards spoke to me like that?" 

"Not us," they all said in unison. There was an evil female laugh somewhere in the forest. 

They look around still shaking in fear. 

"What was that, sir?" ask one of the scared diamond dogs.

He didn't answer as he started sniffing in the air because he was the only one that was not scared of the voice.

"Who are you? Show yourself now!" Fan said with a demanding voice. 

The voice laughs again and spoke. "Look up."

He did and so did the other diamond dogs. When they look up they see a toucan looking down at them with a smirk on it's face. It flew down right near Fan and landed on the floor. The green flames swirl around the toucan and the flames vanish, revealing itself to be none other Queen Crysalis.

"Hello, boys," she said with cackle.

Fan and his diamond dogs all gasp at the sight of the changeling Queen. She was standing right in front on them and if that wasn't enough, she wasn't alone. The changelings were all appearing out of nowhere from the sky to the forms of bushes they were turn into. Fan and his diamond dogs were surrounded and they got ready for a fight.

"If you and your kind are here to feed off of the love here, then you should know that I am not feeling any love here. Especially when I'm not in the mood," Fan said growling.

The changelings were about to attack but she wave them off to tell them to step down. They did as they were told and half them flew down to land. Queen Chrysalis looks at Fan with a reassuring grin. "I can assure you that we are not here to feed off of your love or those mutts. What I am here for is to help you."

Fan and the diamond dogs looks confused by this before Fan regain his composure with a glare. "If your here to help, then what makes you think we can trust you?"

She was still smiling before she spoke. "Well, I saw the whole thing. You could say that I was a 'fly on your wall.'" 

She let out a little snicker at her own bad joke while Fan just stood there confused like he never saw that coming. "You were spying on us? Why?"

"You see, I was just minding my own business as a fly to spend some time alone for a while when I notice that you and your twin brother were taking an argonian, a pony and that traitor of mine to your place called Pebblestone and put them in your cell. You and your brother force that lizard to fight to the death with a rat but things hadn't been going so well for you since the rat's friends were ruining your fun. Then, I flew to your throne room where you two fought that same argonian for the fight for his friends freedom but you lost because he killed your brother after he went on a rampage and let me tell you, I know his kind longer then you all."

Fan raised in eyebrow and speaks. "Keep talking, changeling."

She does. "After that I flew away without being spotted and notice that the argonian, the rat and the rest of his friends have escape and I assume that they have cause your home to be destroyed. Such a pity. So when I escape from the explosion without being noticed, I turn to see that you all have escape as well and I thought 'Maybe I should help them. After all they needed a friend to help or in this case a lotta friends.' And that is why I was spying on you."

Her story about how why she spy on them and wanting to help them after their home was starting to get to them. While they find that hard to believe that a changeling would help them kill Razor and his team, they were completely homeless and they have no other options. Fan then started to think about what she knows about the argonians and how she knows them.

"You said you know them right? Then you must have dealt with them before," Queen Chrysails felt like she was glad to hear those words. She and her changelings were enemies to the argonians and their King and they have defeated them. Even killing the argonian King long ago. The thought about her victory over them made her smile and chuckles.

"Of course, I have. Like I said I know his kind longer before you. This Razor you speak of won't be able to stop the might of the changelings and the diamond dogs. I will not only help you, but I will make you king of the diamonds dogs and the changelings and all of Equestria. Think about it, you and me the King and Queen of both species. What do you say? Do you want my help to kill Razor and his friends so you can have a kingdom with me?" 

Normally, diamond dogs don't rule the world with anyone, but Fan always wanted to be King of Equestria for along time and he would rule it with Queen Chrysails and his twin bother if Fin was alive. ( That would make him happy. ) He was tired of being called alpha dog and so did his late brother. To them, alphas were lesser known reconazible but being a King will make you more popular which is what Fan wanted.

He gives her a smile of his own and spoke. "Queen Chrysails, consider this a great deal. I'll will let you help me kill Razor and his friends. Plus, I would love to be King instead of being alpha."

This made her laugh evilly as if her offer works. "Excellent and while you're at it, you can even help me with something. Something that involves six ponies, three Princess', a Royal Guard and a baby dragon."

Fan gave her questioning look. "What are their names?"
> Chapter 18: In Your Dreams ( Edited in 30/3/18 )
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

I was sleeping. Sleeping like a baby or in this case, lizard. The Dream Realm can be bizarre but I don't care because I love it and it's all thanks to Princess Luna the one who sends me here in The Chess Games of The Gods.

I was in my human form again since I was in the Dream Realm but of course when I wake up, I'm gonna be an Argonian again. Look I this confusing but that's how it works here. But hey, at least I'm not in Discord's home because his place was crazy.

Anyway, I was looking around in the Dream Realm and I discovered that I can do anything here I want to. For example, I can dream about changing the music in the background to my likings.

You probably want to know what music I'm gonna be playing when I dream about it. Don't I will get to that because Princess Luna arrives. I saw her walking up to me with a face that looks less happy and more unpleasant.

I walk to her and give her my best grin ever. "Princess Luna, yo. How's it going?"

She didn't say anything. "Look, I know I didn't went to Yakastan, but don't worry we wil get there if we had the chance."

"I don't think that will be necessary anymore," she finally said. She didn't happy but she sounds like she didn't give a ratsass. Princess Luna didn't change her expression. 

"What do you mean that won't be necessary?" I ask her, looking confused about why me and the others aren't going to Yakastan. 

She spoke again only this time more annoyed then unpleasant. "If you must know, Prince Rutherford was sick and he won't be leaving his hometown along with the other yaks because They don't want to get anypony sick if they go to war with the changelings."

"Wait a minute, how did he get sick?" I ask with an eyebrow raise.

"You don't want to know," she answers with a shudder. 

Well, I guess going to Yakastan will be of the schedule in my list of places to go to Equis. I didn't want to complain about it since I don't care much about Yakastan. Instead, I decided to change topic. "Princess Luna, can we talk about other topics?" 

She glances at me. "Sure, what do you want to talk about?"

"I wanna talk to you about the Dream Realm. This place amazing. At first, when I frist came here I didn't know what do to until I discovered I make things happen in the dreams. And since I'm still asleep as an Argonian, I do anything I want to here. For example, I can play this."

The music begans to play in a techno like sound and we heard a voice saying something about animatronics coming to life and the song about the purple guy. If you don't know what I was talking about, I was referring to Five Nights at Freddy's. Princess Luna seems uncomfortable by the song so I changed it up again.

"Or this song."

While the music was playing differently, I made a dream Derpy appear out of nowhere as she sings in a man voice and then running with fire coming out of her mouth while the dream Mane Six were singing ( which I dream about them. ) and dream Derpy was done I laugh so hard when she said "Tomorrow in my butt."

I laugh and laugh until I stop to catch my breath. Hey that song was funny alright. I look at Princess Luna who unamused by what I just dream about. I gave her a sheepish smile before doing something else.

"Sorry about that. How about this song?"

An awesome guitar riff was heard as a jam out to this song. I love this song so much and I should consider this as my official theme. I look at princess Luna who finds this quite amusing. I notice that her smile was dropping into a frown when she was smile about ten seconds ago. I stop the music by saying "music pause" and did. I walk up to her to see what was wrong. 

"Princess Luna is something wrong?" I ask her, feeling a bit worried about her.

She looks at me with a sad expression on her face. "Razor, I need to tell you something. But, I'm afraid to admit it," she said, looking back to the floor. 

I don't know why she is upset all of sudden, but this was starting to feel like something was up. She's Princess Luna for god sake. It's not like she's a vampire in disguise. I tried to touch her, but she just kept back away. "You can tell me."

"No, please. Razor, this is not the best time here. I understand you don't like to see me upset, but you must know that I cannot tell you." 

"Not even if you whisper it to me?"

"No."

"I'm not gonna wake up until you tell me."

"And what if I refuse to tell you?"

"Then I'll play this one?"

I started to the next song in the Dream Realm. This song was very loud and it was a song about Partying Hard. It was so loud that Princess Luna was covering her ear with her hooves. She finally shouted "CEASE THIS INFERNILE NOISE AT ONCE!" That was enough to make stop the music by clapping my hands.

"Are you gonna tell me?" I ask her.

She nodded. "Yes, I am. Just don't play that song very loudly."

"Okay, Okay. I won't play any loud music. But I am gonna play this one while you tell me why you look sad."

I play the next song in the Dream Realm and a soothing song plays follow by a piano and a guitar riff playing. While the song was playing, Princess Luna began to speak."

"Razor, do you remember the time you kiss me?"

I nodded. Wait, a kiss? Oh yeah, I remember I kissed her. I wonder if this was she was talking about? I will have find out and see.

"Well, after that I started to have....feelings for you."

"Feelings? Like a happy feeling?"

"You can say that, but it's more like a warm feeling. The kind that would make a stallion and mare feel happy inside."

"I don't know where your going with this?"

"Razor. I believe I have fallen in love with you."

I process on what she was saying for a few minutes until the music stops with a screech when I finally got the hint.

"Are you serious?" I ask both shock and surprise by this.

She nodded to my respond. "Yes. Ever since you unexpectedly kissed me, I felt like Something was very wrong with you. I wanted to ask, but I felt something in my heart. Like it was something I never felt for a really long time and that felt like love. I knew my heart was not gonna stop pounding like that until I tell you."

"Why are you telling me this?" 

"Because I needed to tell you this before it's too late. I didn't think you would be okay with it since you were human from the beginning."

It was true, I was a human before I got turn into Argonian by Princess Luna. I guess that explains why she was feeling down but as it turns out, she was to afraid to admit it. It seems to me that I should tell her that I love her too. But hey, since I'm an Argonian, I guess it's okay to fall in love with another spices even if it is a Alicorn Princess. I look at her who seems like she was gonna be sad if I said something that would hurt her, but I smiled and said something nice to her.

"Princess Luna, I had know idea you felt this way. I can't believe you actually love me. Well, if it makes you feel better, I love you too. You are my favorite Princess," I said, giving her a gentle comforting hug.

She looks really surprise by my reaction and gave me a curious look. "You are?" Princess Luna ask.

"Yeah, I always love you when you frist came to the show in season one. I felt bad for you when you were trying to make ponies show you that you change for good. You got a second chance when you got hit by the elements of harmony after you became Nightmare Moon. You got help from Twilight Sparkle on Nightmare Night. You manage to face your fear when you and the mane six fought Tantabus in the dream version of ponyville. The only reason I don't hate you is because you are the most beautiful pony ever."

She was amazed by how I mention about all those things in the past. It was a good thing I never miss any My Little Pony because I always record it on TiVo. I look at Princess Luna who was starting to tear up. 

"Do you really mean that?" She ask me, while trying not to cry.

I only nodded. She couldn't hold it in as she starts crying on me. I hold on to her and gave her a comforting hug. I began to soothe her. This was the first time I hear and see her cry in person. She was crying with tears of joy. "Don't cry, Princess Luna," I said, still soothing her.

She looks up and gives me a smile. "You can call me Luna from now on."

"Okay, I call you that," I said.

She wipes the tears off of her eyes to stop crying. "That was the most kindness words I ever hear from you. Thank you for showing me that you love me even if you are a human in a new body. I feel so much better now that you told me that we share feelings for each other."

I let her go so she can gather her self and stand up straight. "Thank nothing of it. It's the least I can do after we told each other we love each and me telling you that you are not evil." I said, trying not to be bashful.

Luna took notice of the Dream Realm that I made a few moments ago. It looks like something you would see in a Adventure Time show. She seems to like this place it even has everything from a city of Hyrule in a cleaner way to the Castle of the two sisters that was never been destroyed in the frist place.

"Razor, did you do all this?" She ask, turning to look at me with a impressed look. "I'm really amazed how you made the Dream Realm so...beautiful."

I really like how she commit about my Dream Realm. I was really glad she loves it and while it isn't the best idea Dream Realm, it was a fitting one for the two of us.

"So you love it?" I ask her.

"I would be lying if I said no." She replied with a sly smile.

Oh, Luna. I just knew you would say that.

"Well, maybe it's just my ideas that made me create my own Dream Realm and I think I have a good song about that my Dream Realm I mean OUR Dream Realm. Let me think of a song in my dream...wait...wait...here we go!"

The I choose started off as a guitar plays gently before going to a loud and awesome music from it plays follow by a dream beat. This is where I sing like Scott Stapp.

When dreaming, I'm guided to another
world, time and time again
At sunrise, I fight to stay asleep
'Cause I don't want to leave the comfort of 
this place
'Cause there's a hunger, a longing to 
escape

From the life I live when I'm awake

So let's go there, let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask: Can we stay?

Can you take me higher to a place where
blind men see?
Can you take me higher to a place with 
golden streets?

I started to sprout wings on my back and I started flying to our Dream Realm as Luna flys up and follows me around the city.

Although I would like our world to change
It helps me to appreciate those nights and
Those dreams
But, my friends, I'd sacrifice all those nights

If I could make the Earth and my dreams 
the same
The only difference is, to let love replace all
our hate

So let's go there, let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask: Can we stay?

Can you take me higher to a place where
blind men see?
Can you take me higher to a place with
golden streets?

So let's go there
( Let's go there )
Let's go there 
( Let's go there )
Come on, let's go there
( Come on let's go there )
Let's ask: an we stay?


Me and Luna started flying around the buildings and doing amazing tricks like going through clouds made of cotton to touch the lake that goes from brown to clear blue like the ocean. Me and Luna flew up to the cloud and landed. I may not be a Pegasus, but I sure stand on clouds in the Dream Realm.

Up high, I feel like I'm alive for the very frist 
time
Sail up high, I'm strong enough
To take these dreams, and make them mine


Luna was really liking the song I sang. She had a single tear in her left eye and I was just about to keep singing until the end.

( Oh-oh )

Sail up high, I'm strong enough
To take these dreams, and make them mine

I took a breath a few seconds to prepare for one more verse.

Can you take me higher to a place
blind men see?
Can you take me higher to a place with
golden streets?
Can you take me higher to a place where blind men see? 
Can you take me higher to a place with golden streets?

When I finish my song, I heard Luna clapping with her hooves. "That was a wonderful song, Razor. You sure have a good singing voice."

"Well, thanks, I am a born singer wheb it comes to my talents" I said with a smile.

Luna then notice that the ice staff I had was no longer here. She looks curious at me. “Razor, where is your ice staff?”

“One of the diamond dogs broke it when I got captured,” I replied, looking sad for my lost of my weapon. “But I got a new weapon. It’s called a diamond sword.”

I pull out my diamond sword to show it to Luna with a few swings and slashes before I put it back on my seethe. "See?" I ask, without breaking a sweat.

Luna looks very impressed. "That diamond sword does look suitable. Maybe I should get you two more weapons to go with it," She use her magic to create two energy spheres out of her horn. They took on the shape of a spear and a shield like the one you see in Africa.

I pick them up and examined them. "Luna, this spear looks the same and the shield looks old," I stated, trying not to hurt her feelings about making weapons.

"Razor, The Spear you are holding does look like your spear, but this one is different. It will allow you to create fire, Thunder and Ice whenever you please. If you want fire, say 'Fira', If you choose ice, say 'Blizzara' and If you wish for thunder, say Thundara." What Luna was saying sounds like something from a Final Fantasy game. I cannot wait to give it a try.

"Okay, well I guess I can call it the 'Triple Threat'," I said, looking at the staff in my hand with amazement. I then look at my Shield. "Okay, so what about the shield?"

She only smile with an eye roll. "The shield you are holding is called the Argonain Shield. It will protect you from fire, ice, poison, thunder and black magic."

"Black magic?" I ask with my eyebrow raise.

"It is protected by light base magic and was made by my sister." Luna said, giving me the details.

I gotta say thank you to Princess Celestia when I see her. Before I could say thanks to Luna, I suddenly cut off when I heard Flash's voice from above and his voice sounded booming.

"RAZOR, WAKE UP! RAZOR, WAKE UP NOW!"

"What the hell?" Was all I can say before a bright light shines above and I can feel myself getting ready to wake up. I look and I can see Luna flying backwards presumably to go to the waking world where her physical body was in Canterlot.

"Aw man, this sucks." I said before I began to wake up.
> Chapter 19: Separate ways. ( completed )
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

I felt a jolt of electricity hit me in the chest. "Ow!?  What was that for!?" I yelled as I was twitching to the ground. I got up to look at the rat who was using electrokinese with his left claw. Wait a minute, since when did he have electric powers? Who does he think he is, Pikachu? When he was done shaking the pain out of his hands, he gives me an annoyed look.

"That what you get for standing there like a twat thinking no one is going to hit you, I swear. How has one killed you by now? Talion asked, while my friends went to help him. 

"Hey, chill. I didn't mean to scare you I'm sorry?" I said, trying to calm him down. But he hissed at me. "What the hell?"

"Hey, why  are you being so mean?"

"Yeah, he was just apologizing to you."

"You need to be nicer to him."

"If you weren't one of my soldiers I will put on probation. Even if I don't care about Razor. You know what? I’m leaving and I hope never see you again, lizardboy!”  Talion turns around and walks to the dark part of the forest to be with his other friends. Something tells me I won’t be seeing him ever again.

"Should we go to him?" Saffron ask.

I shook my head. "No. If he wants alone time to calm down, we'll leave him be. Until then, let's just start packing without him. He'll probably kill me if I show my face to him.

"You heard him! Let's start packing," Flash barks in order as we all started packing our stuff.

----------------------------------------

After we finish packing, we all fall asleep but me as I was looking at the blue sky. Until I felt a tap on my knees.

I look down and I found myself looking at the mini version of Nightmare Moon who looks pretty cute when she's looking at me like that. She notice my smile and turns the other way. I don't know what she wants, but I have a feeling that she wants to talk to about something. "Talion wants me to tell you that you and your friends that you should go to Black Marsh. It will be your next destination. Plus, he wants me to say he really hates you."

Is that why she woke me up? just so she can tell and my friends to go to a new place? Well, I did feel like going. I mean I’m not lazy right? Before I said something, Mini Nightmare Moon puts her hooves on my mouth to prevent me from saying anything. "I know what you are gonna say, so no he is not joking about hating you," What hell? Is she a mind reader? Oh god...I hope doesn't find out that I’m human. It's bad enough that several ponies knows about it. "I was only sent here to tell you where you and the rest should go and that’s it. If you’ll excuse me, I must be leaving now. Tailon is waiting for me. So goodbye, Razor.”

Before she leaves, I stop her to ask her one last question. “Wait, where is Black Marsh?”

“It’s on the right side of the forest. You and the other must go now. Goodbye again,” The mini version Nightmare Moon left to go to that rat. 

This left me thinking, ‘If he still hates me, why is he telling me where to go?’

I woke up my friends just by whistling really loud. They look at me with tired glare expressions.

“Hey, why did you wake us up?” Double ask, rubbing his eyes.

“You better have a good reason for this,” Flash said, already feeling annoyed by me waking them up like that.

I chuckled nervously. “Sorry, everyone. but we need to go to Black Marsh now.”

I look at my friends who looks curious about their next location. "Razor, What's Black Marsh?" Thorax ask looking confused about what the place is. 

I only shrug at that question. "I have no clue but I bet it sounds like a swamp village."

I don't know what that place really is but it sounds like something out of Skyrim. "Dude, a swamp village sound pretty far fetched, I bet they have a King here."

"Hold on, we haven't decide on that."

"Maybe we should go anyway. We don't have to decide."

"You're right, Nightmare Moon did say we should go to Black Marsh."

This got everyone off gaurd. “Wait, Nightmare Moon told you we need to go to Black Marsh?” Saffron ask.

I nodded. “Short answer: yes. She was sent here by Tailon to tell me to tell you guys that we need to go now.”

"But what about the rest of the freed prisoners?"

"Don't worry, I think Talion and his friends took them."

Flash gives me a glance. "Are you serious? What if that rat eats them?"

I wave that off. “I don’t think he’s a meat eater. He might be a vegetarian.”

"I hope that’s true,” Says Thorax, looking worried already about hoping that the rat is a vegetarian.

I put my claw around his shoulder to reassure him. "Hey, come on, he can take care of himself. Besides, I'm sure he has to other villains to defeat beside Queen Chrysalis."

"Yeah, that Tailon guy is okay in my book," Gabby chimes in with a giggle. 

Thorax looks a little worried but he smiles a little when I cheer him up. "You're right, we shouldn't be thinking about that. We should be thinking about heading to our next destination: Black Marsh."

I pat him on the back. "That's the spirit. Onward! to Black Marsh!," Just when we were about to go, Flash flies up and turn to face me with his hoof out. 

"Hey, I'm the one who's in charge not you. So, don't expect me to give up my leadership anytime soon."

"Okay, Okay, geez. Somepony woke up on the wrong side of the bed."

Flash rolls his eyes before turning around. "Let's just go," And so we did, we headed right towards Black Marsh to see the King so he can have his army and himself join us in a fight against Queen Chrysails and her changelings. We aren't sure how long it is, so we don't know if will arrive or not.

We were walking for at five minutes when I felt a tap on my shoulders. I turn and see Gabby and Saffron looking at me for some reason. "Can I help you?" I ask raising my brow.

Gabby was the first one to spoke. "Since we will be walking for who knows how long, maybe we should sing a song just to pass time."

Saffron spoke next. "Do you know a song we can sing?"

A song, eh? Sure why not? I was getting bored, maybe singing will kill time. "Yeah. we can sing to pass time. Only if want to join me."

The girls gasp. "You want us to sing?" Gabby ask with a hint of excitement. "Okay. Me and Saffron will sing."

"Yes, sing with others will be in honor." Saffron chimes in.

I turn to Flash. "Hey, Flash, you wanna sing?" 

He glances at me and sighs heavily. "Like I have a choice, but sure." 

I then turn to Thorax and Double Diamond. "How about you two?"

"Uh..I don't mind singing with you."

"Nah, I'm more of a dancer then a singer dude."

"Fair enough, let’s sing a song about going to see the King.”

“Do they even have a king?”

“I hope so. Black Marsh must have a king. Now then, just follow my lead. Because I know a good song I know. Saffron can you start us off?"

Saffron looks stun. "Me? But I don't know where to begin."

I walk to her and whispers something in her and I finish. She smiles and nods at me. "Okay, here goes nothing." She says, feeling like she was confident about this.

We then begin to get ready for Saffron to start singing when the music plays somewhere.

( Note: Each Character is gonna be singing. Black is all or both, Green is Razor, Purple is Thorax, Orange is Saffron, Grey is Gabby and Blue is Flash Sentry )


Life is like a journey
On a road that's within
Head says you should stay
But your heart says to begin
So you go

But you don't want to go

Any life worth living
Isn't life just filled with ease 
You just stay forgiving
Through the forest and the trees


And you'll go
Just where you want to go

Time fly by in the city of light
Time stands still in the country
There's no time for a fuss and a fight
As we travel the land

And I'd be
Satisfied 
Just to be
Not denied

To reside 
with some pride

While I ride 
To the City
The City of Light!

We headed straight to a cave and as we entered, Saffron used her unicorn magic to light this place up. It was a good thing she was unicorn or we'd be in real trouble.

Light shines like a diamond
In the City at night

When that diamond shines
You know that everything's all right

But you know
We got a way to go

We got out of the cave as Saffron turns off her magic. 

Let us meet the King
We don't wanna make him wait

You just keep a-knockin'

He will open up the gate 
To the City of Light


Flash stops us as he tells us that he needs to use the bathroom. We waited when he headed straight behind the tree to go number one. I wanted to see what was going on, but I was yanked away by Gabby who scolded me by wagging her talon at me like a mother scolding a child. When flash was done, we continued our journey and our song.

The King is a pony with a plan I can understand

The king is a pony of great reflection

The King is a pony who lays his head across the land

The King is a pony of our affection

Time side by in the city of light
Time stands still in the country
There's no time for a fuss and a fight
As we travel the land

And I'd be 
Satisfied
Just to be
Not denied

To reside
With some pride
While I ride
To the City
The City of Light

When we finish singing, Saffron and I spotted something. "Look!"

We saw it. The sign says Black Marsh and about three blocks away was the village which I assume is the place we are supposed to go.

I turn to my friends and spoke to them. "This is the place. Let's see what Black Marsh looks like on the inside."

They all said "yeah" before we started headed straight towards the village.
> Chapter 20: Entertaining The King
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

The six of us rushed right straight to the place, only to stop when we notice that there was a sign on it that says "No Changelings Allowed". Wow, they must not take kindly to this. I remember that Princess Luna told me that Argonians resides there, so which means I could probably see them. "It's not fair!" I look over to Thorax who was upset at the sign he's reading. "Changelings are not welcome to Black Marsh? It's just not fair."

"Aww, don't be sad. I'm sure this a fake sign," Gabby said, trying to cheer him.

"Yeah, maybe they forgot about your kind." Double chimes in by patting him on the back.

Thorax only scoffs. "I doubt it. Now I'll never see the inside of this place."

I really felt bad for him. Thorax looks sad when he isn't welcome here. I guess Thorax doesn't get to go....or does he. I made a sly smile. "Thorax, what's wrong?" I ask him, making Thorax turn to face me.

"I can't enter this place," Thorax replied with a sad tune.

This didn't phase me at all. "You know, you could transform into somepony your not. Think about it, when you transform, no one will notice who you really are."

Flash steps up to us. "For once I agree. It maybe a risky shot, but you should transform into somepony else."

"Yeah, that's a good idea," said Saffron.

"You really think it will work?" Thorax ask, feeling less sad and more concern.

Double nod to his answer. "Yeah dude, you should really turn into somepony."

"I always wanted to see a changeling transform. Even though I hardly know one," Gabby pipes up as she flies up to Thorax with excitement in her face.

Thorax thinks about this for a second until he made his choice. "Okay, let's see who I can turn into." With that, green flames circle around him and then vanishes. What we are looking at was Thorax taking the form of a white unicorn stallion with purple mane and tail, orange eyes and a cutie mark that looks like grandfather clock. 

Thorax was now a stallion. He looks over to us and ask. "Will this do?"

We look at each other, then back him to give him a nod.

"So, what should we call you?" I ask him.

Thorax looks at his 'cutie mark' before a smile came into mind. "Call me, Tick-Tock."

Tick-Tock? Not the best name, but will do. Saffron, Double, Flash and Gabby didn't say anything until I spoke. "Okay Thorax, Tick-Tock it is."

The rest of them all agree by muddering in approve. Thorax felt happy about. We then continued our journey to Black Marsh and once we entered, something was really weird and unexpected.

This place is populated with undead ponies, undead griffins, undead diamond dogs, ghost ponies, ghost griffin, ghost diamond dogs, skeleton ponies, skeleton griffins, skeleton diamond dogs, vampire ponies, vampire griffins, vampire diamond dogs and argonains. This place is like the pony version of The Nightmare Before Christmas. What the hell? Princess Luna didn't tell about this (Except the part about argonains living here).

We were speechless from when we saw this. But on the plus side, we could also see that most of them were not as scary as I thought. They seem really happy to us.

"This is really creepy yet unexpected," said Saffron, feeling a little unease.

"You're telling me, Saffron. I did not expected this," I said, agreeing with her.

"We all didn't expected this," Flash said, correcting me. "This place is filled with monsters. Can this get anymore weirder?"

As if on cue, someone was shouting at the top of his lungs. "The King is Coming! The King is Coming!"

Everyone started to stop what they are doing and they all bowed. I don't know what they were bowing for until Thorax said something. "Guys, I think that guy being by a chariot is the king."

We look at were he was pointing at, we saw what was a chariot made out of gold. It was being carried by two skeleton ponies and on each side were two zombie griffins holding spears and have mean looks in their eyes. If I didn't know any better, I say that this king sure knows is protection.

The chariot stops when it went right in front of us, making the two zombie griffins walk forward and pointed their spears at us. 

"Hey, why are you six bowing to the king and in the way?" Ask the one on the left.

"Yeah, don't you know yo-" the other one on the right stops himself and looks at me, Double Diamond, Thorax, Saffron, Gabby and Flash Sentry. He lets out a studdered trying to speak until the zombie griffin on the left looks at funny.

"What's wrong?"

"Look. All six of them."

"What about them?"

"A griffin and four ponies are alive and that argonian is with them."

The left zombie griffin looks at us closely and gasp. "You're right. Those five are alive and that lizard just invited them over."

"What do we do?" Ask the zombie griffin on his right.

We didn't say anything since we had no idea what the hell is going on. The zombie griffin on the left ponders this situation before he turns to his friend. "We must inform the king. Maybe he can deal those living being."

"But what about the argonain?" He ask him a worried question.

"We inform the king about that too." They both nodded in agreement before they turn to face us and giving us a glare.

"You six will stay here and not move a single body or a mouth? If you do those things, you all will die by our king. Got it!?" We only nodded. "Good. Now, stay here and don't do anything, say anything or touch anything."

The two of them walks over to the chariot as the right zombie griffin knocks on the door. We then here a male voice that sounded like it has British accent. "I say, who dares to knock on the door of my chariot while am sleeping?"

"Sorry, to wake you, your majesty. But we got an argonain with four living ponies and a living griffin."

"What?!"

"It's true and you should see it for yourself."

"Ugh, very well."

The chariot door opens and we see nothing come out until we spotted a ghostly out figure floating towards us. The ghostly white figure began to take shape of a earth pony with regal mane and red eyes and was wearing a gold and red regalia as well as a white cape which almost blends in to his backside. This thing was starting to scare us a bit when he looks at us, but Thorax was shaking in fear that it looks like he was about to change back. Double manages to calm him to make sure he doesn't revert back. The King looks at us with a mixture of disgust and interest.

I step up to him to speak. "Hello, your majesty. I'm Razor the argonain."

The King let's out a huff when he speaks. "I am King Fantasma. The King of Black Marsh," He then looks at my friends who were not feeling scared but rather feeling worried with him. "And who are these living things, my dear boy?"

I had a feeling were this was heading so I figure I come up with a team name just so he will know who we are. but first, I have to tell King Fantasma their names. "This is Thorax, Flash Sentry, Gabby, Double Diamond and Saffron. Together we are The Unique Ones!"

This got all of them wide eyed when I tell him the team name. I look at them and just shrug. "What? It's either that or N'sync," I'm so glad I didn't call my team that name.

King Fantasma however, looks pleased with that name. "I see, well it's pleasure to meet you all, Unique Ones!."

"He-He-Hello, Ki-King Fantasma."

"It is an honor to meet you, your grace."

"Hi, King. I mean, greetings, King Fantasma."

"We come in piece."

"We didn't mean to enter your village without permission."

"Then prey tell, why are you six here in my village then? Don't you know that this place is only for undeads only?" He stated while folding his arms with stern look.

I guess it makes sense since the only living being here besides argonains are my friends. I don't see a living soul here. The zombie griffins pointed their spears at us with threats look. "The King ask you a question. If you don't answer now, you six will die."

"If by die you mean come back to life as in either a skeleton, ghost, zombie or a vampire right?" I ask, trying to be calm and collected.

The zombie griffin on the left shook his head. "No, we mean like dead-dead. You have to be born as any of those guys."

I drop my calmness from that. 'You have got to be kidding?'

"Please answer my question at once," He may not sound impatient but judging by that tone, King Fantasma was on the edge of it.

I clear my throat to answer. "The reason why we are here is because we need your help."

King Fantasma raised a eye brow. "And why do you need my help?"

Flash steps forward to speak for me. "Because Queen Chrysalis starting an invasion and we need you and your soldiers to join the fight, King Fantasma."

The ghost earth pony King stayed silent for a moment then, he burst out laughing. "Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha! Oh that's rich. I say, what makes you all think I'd be helping you out?"

We didn't expected this from him. He was laughing at the answer Flash gave. "We really need you to bring your men to fight the changelings. We can't fight her and her army by ourselves," Thorax said.

King Fantasma laugh even harder. "Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha! You all really think that I would join you and have my army fight Queen Chrysails and her changelings, right? Well, I'm not."

Was he serious?  "Why not?"

"In case you didn't know, I will not join your fight and neither will my army. We are meant to live a peaceful life here in Black Marsh," King Fantasma replied with a scoff.

"Then why do you have your two zombie griffins with you?" I ask, pointing to the two of them behind him.

King Fantasma looks at them and then back to me with a replied. "Those two are my body guards. I need them for protection."

"What about your soldiers?" Double ask.

"They are known to protect not fight, but they are known to up hold the law," King Fantasma replied with his arms folded.

So even though they are soldiers, they have to follow the laws of Black Marsh and must protect this village. I look at King Fatasma with a pleading look by getting on knees and beg. "Please, please. Join us. If you don't Queen Chrysails will destroy everything, including you."

"Sorry, but the answer is still no. Now, would you all be so kind as to leave this place before I have my guards do it for you. I must continue my chariot ride through my village," Just as he was about to leave, Gabby flies over him and lands between him and his chariot. The zombie griffin on the right pointing his spear at her, believing that she's gonna hurt him ( even though he's a ghost ).

We were about to stop this, but the zombie griffin on the left turn and pointed his spear at us. "Don't even think about it," he said nearly jabbing it to my neck.

King Fantasma glares at her. "Move away, griffin, I don't have time for this nonsense."

She held her talon to stop him and then spoke. "What if we do something to change your mind?"

King Fantasma looks at her curiously. "Come again?"

Even we were giving her that same look. "Gabby, where are you going with this?" I ask her, but she didn't hear me.

She continues to speak. "If we do something to make you change your mind, will you and your soldiers join us to fight Queen Chrysails and her changelings?"

King Fantasma rubs his chin to ponder this kind of deal she was making. He gives her a smirk on the face. "Can you and any of your friends sing?" 

That was unexpected. He's asking that question? 

She nodded. "Yeah, even Razor can sing. Why?"

"Well, I just so happen to be a fan of singing and I love it when my subjects sings randomly from time to time. If you and The Unique Ones can impress me with your singing voices, I might have my army join you as well as me." King Fantasma was being generous for this. He's really giving us an offer to sing for him and might give us a chance to have him and his army to join us.

"I think that's a great idea," I chimed in. "So when do want us to sing?"

"Right now," he replied.

Wait, wait,wait? Now? "Did you say now?" I ask him, making sure I was hearing it right.

He nods "Yes, now. Do you have a problem with that?"

I shook my head. "No. But what happens if our singing isn't good enough?"

"Then, I will decline your help and must ask you six to leave and never ever return," King Fantasma was giving me a cold hard look when he answer that. "So, will you sing for me? The Unique Ones?"

Well, I guess we had no choice but to impress the King with our singing. I just hope that the others are good singers. I turn to my friends. "So, what do say guys?"

"I be lying if I say, I hate singing."

"I can't let royalty down, no matter if they are alive or dead."

"I don't mind singing."

"Dude, I'll sing just for the fun of it."

"I love cooking but I also love to give it a try."

Well, I guess they wanted to sing, which means we will sing for him. I turn around to face King Fantasma with a determine expression. "Your majesty, me and The Unique Ones will sing for you."

He smiles at my replied. "Wonderful. You two, watch my chariot. We are going to the Kareoke Bar."

The two zombie griffins saluted to him as they both stayed between the chariot. King Fantasma then motions us to follow him when he floated over to the right and we were heading straight to the tavern.

If this place has a Kareoke here, this should be no problem. I just hope he will accepts our singing. Or better yet, I just hope half us are good singers. I really need his and his soldiers help on this.

-----------------------------------------------------

We arrive at a kareoke Bar called "Hoof and Mouth Deceased." Kinda weird name for a bar if you ask me. "Here we are. The Hoof and Mouth Deceased," Said King Fantasma, showing us the building we are heading to.

"So, this is the place we get to sing for you?" Saffron ask.

"Most definitely. Now, come along, I want your voices to be heard." King Fantasma heads to the entrance of the bar and so did we. When we entered Hoof and Mouth Deceased, all the bar patrons and the barkeep stop what they were doing as they turn to face us. They then look at King Fantasma and bowed to him, much to his satisfaction. 

"Dude, I think they're looking at us funny," Double whispers to me in a uncomfortable way.

"You think, Double?" I whisper back at him, trying not to yell.

we heard King Fantasma calling us by our team name and showed us around seat that has seven chairs. I motions us to come over here and we did. However, as we walk, Me and my friends can hear them talking about us from their backs in a low whisper.

"Why is that argonain with them?"

"Does he even know that the living aren't welcome here?"

"They look gross."

"Why did he bring them here?"

"He's betrayed his own kind here?"

Oh my god, and I thought The X-men were treated poorly.

We sat at the table and a barkeep likely a skeleton diamond dog walks up to us with an anger glare. "Hey, you better get rid of these living things out of my bar or I'll kick you and your ugly friends out."

Flash stands up to say something, but King Fantasma puts his ghostly hoof on his shoulder to set him down before glaring at the barkeep. "Now see here, these living beings are called The Unique Ones and they are here to sing for my amusement."

Everyone stops what they were doing again as all I eyes were towards him now. The barkeep was stunned by this. His jaws literally drops to the floor and then picks it up to fix it. "You want them to sing here? Are you out of your mind, your majesty?"

"Who dare speak to me in such manner?" he ask as his ghostly skin went from white to dark grey. I hate to see what happens if he says something to far.

The barkeep shook his head and stuttered. "N-N-No. I didn't mean it. It's just th-"

King Fantasma cuts him off by putting his ghostly hoof on his boney mouth. "I don't want to hear. Now, is the stage open?" The barkeep nods. "Excellent, then I want you get it started at once."

I gave him a smirk. "You sure know how to control them."

He only scoffs. "Oh please, he should be grateful that I didn't send him to the dungeon."

'Note to self: Never ever get on his bad side' I made a mental note on that. King Fantasma maybe a British accent ghost pony, but he is no pushover.

The barkeep nods and gets on the stage to grab the microphone. He taps it which makes everyone stop and turn to face him. He clears his throat. "Hello, everyone, can you all head to your seats please? Thank you."

They all did well, some of them were already at their seats as they look at the barkeep and waited for him to say something else. "Now, it's time for Karaoke time, but first let me introduce who to the uh..." He looks at me with questionable look. "What are you called?" 

"The Unique Ones." I told him.

He went back to talking to the crowd. "The Unique Ones." No one cheered or applause to use. That gave us a cold hard glare at us like they want to beat us up.

Thorax was shaking. "I'm scared."

"Everything will be okay," Saffron puts her hooves around him to make him feel comfortable.

"The Unique Ones are here to sing by order of King Fantasma," he told them which all of them  moan at that.

"SILIENCE!" He shouted making everyone stop complaining and for King Fantasma to calm down and looks at the barkeep. "Continue."

He did so and cleared his throat. "Yes, well, they will sing a song for the King for his amusement. Remember, our King loves it when we all sing, but this time we should let these living freaks sing for him."

They didn't cheered again only mumbling about us again. presumably how much they hated us. "Now, first up is that grey griffin sitting next to King Fantasma, so come up here and show us what you got."

Gabby gasp at that announcement and flies up to the stage and lands down here. "I am gonna sing a song that always makes me feel happy and never let's me if down in the dumps. I hope you all like it." 

"This should be good," he said, already feeling like he's gonna enjoy this.

Please, please, please, don't make him refuse.

Gabby grabs a microphone. When the music plays she started to sing.

Can't seem to get my mind off of you
Back here at home there's nothin' to do
Now that I'm away 
I wish I'd stayed
Tomorrow's a day of mine
That you won't be in

When you looked at me, I should've run
But I thought it was just for fun
I see I was wrong 
And I'm not so strong
I should've known all along
That time would tell

A week without you 
Thought I'd forget
Two weeks without you and I
Still haven't gotten over you yet

Vacation, all I ever wanted
Vacation, had to get away
Vacation, meant to be spent alone

Vacation, all I ever wanted
Vacation, had to get away
Vacation, meant to be spent alone


My jaws were stunned. I don't know how, but I guess they have this kind of music here in Equestria.

A week without you
Thought I'd forget
Two weeks without you and I
Still haven't gotten over you yet

Vacation, all I ever wanted
Vacation, had to get away
Vacation, meant to be spent alone

Gabby was a good singer I'll give her that. Hell, the barkeep and the costumers seems to be liking it. Maybe she should be a Pop star.

Vacation, all I ever wanted
Vacation, had to get away
Vacation, meant to be spent alone

Vacation, all I ever wanted
Vacation, had to get away
Vacation, meant to be spent alone

When the song ends Gabby left the stage as everypony cheers for her. Gabby herself was excited to be performing on stage for the first time.

"Did you see that? I sang and everypony likes!" She said, all cheery.

"You were great," Saffron said.

"No argument here," I said. I turn to King Fantasma. "So, did you like her song?"

He only nods with smiling. "Not bad, but this is only the beginning." 

The barkeep grabs the mike and spoke into it. "Wasn't she something? Next up, is a pony who goes by the name uh...name?" He ask Thorax who was still in pony form.

Thorax replied. "I'm Tick Tock."

The barkeep nods to that confirmed that name. "Tick Tock, please step to the stage and singing."

He gulped when he was being called. "Well, he-here goes nothing."

I can tell Thorax is too nervous to sing, but he looks like he has to if he want King Fantasma to be impressed.

Thorax nervously walks up the stage and grabs the mike with his magic. He taps it a few times to make sure the feedback was okay. I just really hope he doesn't chicken out when the song started. "Okay, Thorax. You can do this. Just sing and don't be nervous," He said to himself. The next song began to play when a guitar that was played be a zombie griffin begin in a slow yet mellow tune.

Oh life, it's bigger
It's bigger than you
And you are not me
The lengths that I will go to
The distance in your eyes
Oh on, I've said too much
I set it up

That's me in the corner
That's me in the spotlight
Losing my religion 
Trying to keep up with you
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no, I've said too much
I haven't said enough

I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try


Every whisper
Of every waking hour
I'm choosing my confessions
Trying to keep an eye on you
Like a hurt, lost and blinded fool, fool
Oh no, I've said too much
I set it up

Consider this
Consider this, the hint of the century
Consider this, the slip
That brought me to my knees, failed
What if all these fantasies come
Flailing around
Now I've said too much

I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

But that was just a dream
That was just a dream


I can't tell if he's crying or sweating judging by that leak in his eyes. He somehow manage to regain himself before singing.

That's me in the corner
That's me in the spotlight
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no, I've said too much
I haven't said enough

I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

But that was just a dream
Try, cry, why try
That was just a dream
Just a dream, dream


Thorax was done singing and quickly left the stage, no doubt wanted to head back to the table to sit next to me. I guess he couldn't handle it that long despite being cheered by the crowd.

"You were great, Thorax," I told him, reassuring him. 

Thorax smiles weakly at this. "Thank you, Razor. I'm just glad to not sing twice."

"I like it....in a unexpected kind of way," King Fantasma only shrugs as if he doesn't care about it all. But then again, he was enjoying it.

We then hear the Barkeep speak into the microphone. "Folks, Thorax was a good singer, but now it's time for a duet. So the two singers that are gonna sing are Gabby and the orange unicorn pony."

"My name is Saffron," she said annoyed.

The barkeep was blushing for calling her that and try's it again. "Sorry, I mean Saffron."

"Come on, Saffron. Let's sing together," Gabby and Saffron both walk up on stage to grab the microphones and the music has started as if they knew what song they were gonna sing.

( Doki doki we will be, when your heart beats next to me
Underneath the moon, love will set us free )


The music began to get louder as everypony was enjoying this already. 

I can feel your heartbeat, baby, all the time
It echos like a koto playing in my mind
I want you near me each and every day 
With you, I know our love will always find a way


When I see you smiling, baby
You give me butterflies, you can be my samurai
So glad to be your lady
Could it be forever true, all I think about is you

Doki doki, follow me, it's enchanting like a dream
Forever and a night, baby you and me
Doki doki, we will be, when your heart beats next to me
Underneath the moon, love will set us free (whoa-oh-oh-oh)

This song was pretty nice. I actually like it and I'm not the only who loves it, because Thorax, Flash, Double and all the other bar patrons were dancing to this beat. It was then Gabby's turn to sing the next verse.

When we walk together and you're by my side
I know that I am yours and, baby, you are mine
I get so excited 'bout the things you say
Feeling like I am the luckiest girl today


When I see you smiling, baby
You give me butterflies, you can be my samurai 
So glad to be your lady
Could it be forever true, all I think about is you

Doki doki, follow me, it's enchanting like a dream
Forever and a night, baby you and me
Doki doki, we will be, when your heart beats next to me
Underneath the moon, love will set us free (whoa-oh-oh-oh)


These two are great when they sing together and that was no joke. Saffron grabs a glass of water from the barkeep, while Gabby was bopping her head to the beat before the two of them resume singing.

When I see you smiling, baby 
You give me butterflies, you can be my samurai
So glad to be your lady
Could it be forever true, all I think about is you

Doki doki follow me, it's enchanting like a dream
Forever and a night, baby you and me
Doki doki we will be, when your heart beats next to me
Underneath the moon, love will set us free (whoa-oh-oh-oh)

Both Gabby and Saffron gave each a hug before bowing to the crowd that was cheering them for their duet. They both left the stage and sat back down to talk about how amazing each other was. 

"Wow, Saffron you were amazing," Gabby said with that enthusiasm.

Saffron only blush a bit at that. "You are too kind, Gabby."

We all give them a cheer. "That was awesome, girls."

"You were wonderful."

"I guess you two were great when singing together."

"Gabby and Saffron, you both wowed the whole bar."

He then hear King Fantasma clears his throat. "I believe the barkeep is about to introduce another singer."

Indeed he was when he got the mike and spoke into it. "Those girls were fantastic, huh guys? Now, we go back to a single singer and this next one is.....name?"

Flash Sentry knew he was looking at him and stood up to address the Barkeep. "Flash Sentry. Lieutenant of the Crystal Empire."

The Barkeep gives him a blank stare before regaining his composure to say something. "Right, Ladies and Gentlemen, Flash Sentry.

Flash Sentry enters the stage and takes the mike. He didn't say anything until the music began with a guitar riff.

(Author's Note: This song is seven minutes long so I will not put lyrics for Flash Sentry. If you wanna listen to the song, click the link above it. Thank you for your understanding )

When the song was done everypony including myself applause at his amazing song. He saluted without saying a word and headed back to us.

"He seems to have a voice of a warrior," King Fantasma commits on his performance.

"No kidding. I never knew he was a great singer," I said, still confused and amazed by that song he sang.

The Barkeep walks back to the stage and grabs the microphone to say something. "That pony should be a rockstar," That got a few laughs from the crowd, including us. "Next up is a white pony name uh....."

Double rolls his eyes and helps him say his name. "Double Diamond, dude."

"Oh yeah, Double Diamond, folks." The barkeep puts the mike down and leaves the stage so Double can get on it.

It was Double Diamonds turn as he steps up the stage to grab the mike. Once he did that, a song was starting to played by the sound of a drumbeat.

She says she's no good
With words but I'm worse
Barely stuttered out a joke of a romantically stuck to my tongue

Weighed down with words too
Over-dramatic
Tonight it's "it can't get much worse"
Versus "no one should ever feel like"

I'm two quarters and a hear down
And I don't want to forget how your voice sounds
These words are all I have so I'll write them
So you need them just to get by

Dance, dance
We're falling apart to half time
Dance, dance
And these are the lives you'd love to lead
Dance, this is the way they'd love if they knew
How misery love me

I'm guessing that this is Fall Out Boy since I listen them before I came here. But, I wonder why he's singing that song? 

You always fold just
Before you're found out
Drink up, it's last call, last resort
But only the first mistake and

I'm two quarters and a heart down
And I don't want to forget how your voice sounds
These words are all I have so I'll write them
So you need them just to get by

Why don't you show me the little bit of spine
You've been saving for his mattress, love

Dance, dance
We're falling apart to half time
Dance, dance
And these are the lives you'd love to lead
Dance, this is the way they'd love if they knew
How misery loved me

This song must sound like he's just afraid to talk Mares. Maybe I can give him a helping dating tip if he needs it when he's done. But, then again, maybe someone should do it. I just don't thing this is the time or the place.

Why don't you show me the little bit of spine
You've been saving for his mattress (mattress, mattress )
I only want sympathy in the form of you
Crawling into bed with me

Dance, dance
We're falling apart to half time
Dance, dance
And these are the lives you'd love to lead

Dance, this is the way they'd love (way they'd love)
Dance, this is the way they'd love (way they'd love)
Dance, this is the way they'd love if they knew
How misery loved me

I can tell that Double was almost done as he prepares to sing the last verse

Dance, dance
Dance, dance
Dance, dance
Dance, dance

Double did a backflip much to the crowds amazement and left the stage as they cheer for him. 

"Double, what was that all about?" Saffron ask, a little concern about the song he sang.

"It's a song about my life at the dance when I was trying to impress a girl I like," he replied.

So, he was singing a song about he knew from the dance. That's very thoughtful and sweet. I turn to King Fantasma who looks really impressed by this.

"I must say, that song you sang is indeed quite nice but let's see what Razor can do when he enters the stage," he said with smug look he was giving me.

I was about to argue, only to hear the Barkeep say something into the microphone. "It's now time for the last singer. I will not say his name, so maybe he should step up to the stage and say it and tell us what song he will sing."

The Barkeep wants me to go on stage and tell everyone who I am? Well, I'll give it a shot. I got up from the table as my friends cheers me on.

"Go get'em, Razor."

"You got this."

"Make us proud."

"Will root for you."

"Failure is not an option."

when I step up to the stage to grab the microphone to speak. "Hi, My name is Razor and I am gonna sing a song about somepony I really love," This makes the crowd and my friends go 'awww' when I told them that.

 I then started to sing as the music plays in romantic tune. No, doubt this will be the perfect love song for you-know-who.

There used to be a graying tower alone on the sea,
You became the light on the dark side of me
Love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill

But did you know, that when it snows,
My eyes become large, and the light that you shine can't be seen?

Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray,
Ooh, the more I get of you, the stranger it feels, yeah
And now that your rose is in bloom,
A light hits the gloom on the gray


I wish Luna was here to hear me sing. She would be enjoying it. I took a deep breath before I sing again.

There is so much a man can tell you, so much he can say
You remain my power, my pleasure, my pain
Baby, to me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny,
Won't you tell me, is that healthy, baby?

But did you know that when it snows,
My eyes become large, and the light that you shine can't be seen?

Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray,
Ooh, the more I get of you, the stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is in bloom,
A light hits the gloom on the gray

The music was a best choice in my opinion as I can see that half the customers here were trying to not cry, while the other half was crying. I think I hear a diamond dog howling in sorrow. I look at the others and I can see that Gabby, Saffron and Thorax were crying while Flash and Diamond stayed strong and tried not to sob.

I then started singing again.

I've been kissed by a rose on the gray
I'm kissed by a rose on the gray
I've been kissed by a rose on the gray
Baby, the stranger it feels, yeah
I've been kissed by a rose on the gray
And if I should fall, would it all go away?
I've been kissed by a rose on the gray
Baby, I've been kissed by a rose on the gray

There is so much a man can tell you
So much he can say
You remain my power, my pleasure, my pain
To me you're like a grown addiction that I 
Can't deny

Now won't you tell me, is that healthy,
Baby?

But did you know 
That when it snows
My eyes become large 
And the light that you shine can't be seen

Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grave
Ooh, the more I get of you, the stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the grey
Yes, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grave
Ooh, the more I get of you, the stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the grey


I look around and I can see that they are all still crying. It was time to finish this.

Now that your rose is in bloom,
A light hits the gloom on the gray

After my song was done, I can see that they all stop crying to regain their compose quickly and were some stomping from undead and ghosts pony hooves while some ghost and undead griffins and diamond dogs were clapping along with several argonains cheering for me.. It seems the song I sang was the best one there is. I'm also impressed that they all quickly stop crying after that. 

I walk back to the others and I can still see that Gabby and Saffron were trying to stop crying while Thorax was sniffing a bit after that song.

"That was the most beautifuliset song ever!" Gabby said before crying on to Flash's shoulder.

"You were amazing for a lizard," Flash said, giving me a salute.

"That song really blew my mind, Razor," Double said with grin in his face.

"I am a born singer," I said, before turning to King Fantasma. "So, we sang. Does that mean you and your army can join us?"

He only started crying before nodding at me to that answer. The song must've really made him cry. I had no idea ghosts can cry.
But, it was official, King Fantasma and his soldier are joining us to fight Queen Chrysails and her Changelings.
