> The Pegasus With The Arm > by Claw_Cannon > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Prologue-my start > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Beginning Nevar,pronounced(neh-v-air) is an average gamer that was born without his left arm. He is always expects the unexpected since people keep trying to mug him since he looks so defenseless to people even though he is not, and the protagonist of this story, who mostly keeps to himself, is at the finest place in the world for gamers, Minecon. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX "ugh!!!, why cannot I enjoy myself," Nevar mutters to himself as he traverses the grounds of Minecon at Toronto, Canada. "I've always wanted to go to MInecon, but now that I am here I am having no fun at all. WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME?!" A highly decorated police officer comes up and taps him on the shoulder " Excuse me Sir but I am gonna have to ask you to leave, your bad attitude,dangling sleeve, and scary looks are scaring the other people coming to this event. Some even think you are hiding a weapon up your sleeve at this convention." A look of panicked distress suddenly crosses Nevar's face, "B-bu-but I was just h-h-headed to the food c-court I heard that they have a pork chops that actually r-r-resemble the pork chops that are in the game! And I do not have weapons only a creative mind!" He stuttered profusely at the officer(attempting to lie his way out of it). "Sorry man you know the rules as much as I do and it is to have fun and be happy about it no matter how pissed off you are about anything here." the highly decorated police officer says as he pushes him out the front door, " Oh and that all access pass you have there I"m taking that back since you are no longer part of Minecon as of this moment." he says as he yanks off the pass from Nevar's neck, and promptly shuts the door with a resounding thud. Nevar's eye turn downcast as he trudges his way back to the apartment he was staying at. " Man I cannot believe this I was kicked out of Minecon after all the hard work I spent making enough to go to it. Well at least I have the ticket with the cape code on it." He says to himself as he nears the dingy apartment he was staying at with a tiny grin on his face. *Later at the apartment* "Ah, finally a little down time," He says as reclines into the seat cushion as he starts up the computer."so lets see how I add this new cape to my character," I wonder what the cape would look like on the skin I made for the Mine Little Pony mod,what with the ridiculous names that the skins have. He thinks to himself with a slight grin on his face. He starts following the directions until he gets to the code page it shows two areas to input the code (looks down at code), "Ok so it looks like the code is Equestria, huh wonder who at Mojang comes up with these codes?" he says as he presses the enter key. Suddenly there was a flash of light and then a wormhole appeared at his feet sucking him in then closing as suddenly as it had come. *Meanwhile in Equestria* A group of six ponies were gathering outside town to greet the princess that was coming down from the sky. The Princess started addressing them," Greetings Twilight I am guessing you've been progressing on that new spell I gave you?" "Y-yes Princess Celestia I have, it's a great spell that you asked me to try I thought I could not do but I did it!" Twilight said enthusiasm gushing from her. "Well then lets see it," The Princess says with a slight giggle. "Will do Princess." she says confidently as she started up the transportation spell. Suddenly there was a flash of lightening as a wormhole appeared and drop what seemed to be a hairless monkey at the feet of the Princess laying unconsciously on the ground. The strange stood up muttering,"Ow my head What happened, Where am I? And more importantly why am I see nonblocky-ponies everywhere at once?" He said before he promptly Collapsed. > Chapter 1- Ponyfication > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 1-Ponyfication Huh are those apples I smell? I haven't had a decent meal in ages! Nevar thought as he woke up to the smell of apples everywhere. He looked around to find that he wasn't in a familiar place. His head whipped around; he had the feeling that someone was watching him Where am I? he thought. Meanwhile back at the palace, Twilight Sparkle was talking to Princess Celestia. Twilight was telling Celestia about an odd pony she had seen in the apple orchards, "Princess Celestia, what is this thing and how did it come to Ponyville and why is it that it has only 3 legs instead of four-"The Princess's hoof closed her mouth. "I don't know how this being came here but I sense that his mind can help us ponies with problems we have here in Equestria; especially with Luna's newfound love for online gaming getting in the way of her royal duties of raising the moon and stars." "What problems?" Twilight cocked her head, looking very confused. "Um if I can interject please," Everypony was surprised that the hairless monkey with 3 legs was walking to them and only on two legs! "Um, if its alright with you is there anything I can eat? I'm starved." The two ponies chuckled and soon he received food. Twilight Sparkle started giggling as he was served some apple fritters, except the Princess. "How is it that you came to our world?" she asked coolly to the hairless creature. "Um, I don't really know but I think its because the string of words that was on my ticket because the words on it it were Equestria or something like that I'm not entirely sure." The ape was obviously nervous, due to the amount of rambling he was doing, "Oh and my name is Nevar-- in case you were wondering." "Well Nevar seeing that you are here you might as well allow me to turn you into a pony so you can live here as to not cause any havoc among the other ponies in the town." her magic started to swirl around her horn before the newcomer interrupted. "I have request Princess about how my new form would look like!" Nevar quickly Princess Celestia sighed and looked at the ape, "Ok, what?" Nevar leaned in and whispered into Celestia's ear, whispering rather quickly. "That's...different," Celestia said, "As long as you don't cause any harm, I will fulfil your request. Are you ready?" "Yes Ma'am!" Nevar said with a salute. "Ok here we go." A flash of rainbow light erupted from Princess Celestia's horn, magically transforming Nevar into an odd looking pony. "What do you think of your new form?" the princess askec. She thought he was quite odd looking herself, but decided not to mention anything as soon as she saw the young pony's eyes light up. "AWESOME!" He yelled as he checked out his new form. He now had reddish brown fur and a Pegasus form. The only abnormality was a robotic griffin arm attached to where his front left hoof would be. Celestia smiled,"I'm glad that you're pleased Nevar. Although now that you are a pony what will your new name be?" Nevar calmly says,"Claw Cannon." "Excuse me?" Celestia asked, stunned by the absurdity of his new name but she went along with it anyway, "Why weren't you freaking out before when you first came here?" "I'd just gotten used to unexpected things like getting attacked by some nasty muggers so this didn't come to me as a surprise." Claw Cannon blinked, looking at Celestia. "Oh m-my." said the Yellow pegasus who flew into the room. "From this day forth, you may call Equestria your home." "AWWWW YEEAAAHHH!" Claw Cannon quickly changed topics, "Everypony! Now watch this-- girls check it." Nevar said with a grin. His robot griffin arm starts disconnecting at the joint, the claw turned upside down and then the arm reconnected itself. However, the end of the robot griffin arm was now a normal hoof and the griffin claw became an elbow attachment to his leg. All the ponies were stunned by this new feat and they crowded around him. More of Twilight Sparkle's friends had appeared. Rainbow dash was the first to speak, "wah how where HUH?" she stammered. Claw Cannon stood up and said, "Well now that I'm a pony and all where do I crash for the night? Oh and I hope that you guys have internet because I got an itch to play that new MMORPG 'Destinies Collide'!" Princess Celestia then proceeded to 'facehoof' herself, "Great another gamer." she muttered. > Chapter 2-Destinies Collide > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ten hours after Nevar was ponified, Luna was at the palace. “HAHA TAKE THAT YOU VILLAIN! YOU WILL NO LONGER TAKE AWAY THE FOOD OF THE POOR INNOCENT VILLAGERS OF RETSAM!” Luna triumphantly yells in her royal canterlot voice, nearly making everypony cover their ears with fright, as she plays her new game “Destinies Collide” Princess Celestia walks into her room. “Sister I have news. It looks like we have yet another gamer in Equestria by the name of Claw Cannon." Celestia didn't seem all that amused but she thought that it was good, "He currently needs a place to stay so I-.”Celestia says to her sister. “Ugh, not now sis I'm trying to beat this new guy that popped out in the middle of the forest challenging me to a duel!” Luna replied as she was still engrossed in her game,“Ugh why is this guy so hard to beat!” “Yes, um about that... You see the new pony is actually-” “Not now sis trying to fight here!” “But the new pony is actually tha-” Luna abruptly turns around, “What is it about this new pony that makes him so special sis, huh?! What's so special about him?!” she cried out her voice rising. The screen flashes "Your destiny has been cut short" with a loud wah-wah-waaaaah. Luna turns around toward the screen then turns around to face Celestia, “See what you made me do? Now I have to start all over again! Ugh thanks a lot Celestia!” In the distance, the sounds of clashing swords could be heard from down below Luna's feet. The sound almost sounds like it's coming from right under hers! “Yeah about that guy you were fighting,” Celestia started,“That was him. The guy in the guest room down stair-” She was immediately cut off as Princess Luna flew past her through the corridors to give this new pony a piece of her mind. Down below, Nevar was playing Destinies Collide in his canterlot suite. “Wow I can't believe they actually have internet, power, AND computers in this world of ponies heheh.” Nevar says to himself as he plays Destinies Collide, “I wonder why that other player stopped moving all of a sudden? Maybe they went AFK? Oh well at least I get more XP” *BOOM* The doors swing open and slam as an extremely angry Princess Luna flies in. In her Royal Canterlot Voice “How dare thee treat thy foe so unfairly in the midst of a duel of skill!” “Wha? Huh what do you mean Princess uhh-” Nevar says, obviously startled by the sudden intrusion. “Thoughest call me Luna Princess of the NIGHT you ungrateful whelp and-” Suddenly Nevar abruptly jumps and flips around the room for no reason, hangs upside down from a hook in the ceiling to place his claw on her forehead and starts draining the rage right out of her, calming her down in the process. She blinks, “What happened?” Luna says conscious but very confused, “One minute I was gonna strike you down and then you just took away all my anger and then-” “That's what I can do with my arm, drain ponies rage right out of them recharging my arm in the process.”Nevar says calmly, “And I'm sorry about taking your characters life, although the name 'Lunar_Princess' should've made me realize that you were the actual princess in Canterlo-” He was stopped by Princess Luna's hoof stopping him from talking some more. “I can see that you mean no harm you only doing what a normal gamer would do, seize the opportunity and go for it.” “It's no problem, I can simply return the items you had when I killed your character, and the gold for helping my city,” Nevar replies, “By the way the names Claw Cannon, Princess.” “I have an idea Claw Cannon,” Luna says back to him, “Why don't we form a party in-game and see what adventures we can find together?” “Uhhmmm sure, say sunset tomorrow?”He says sticking his claw arm out rather sheepishly. “Commenda-Uh I mean yes. We will create the party tomorrow at sunset and start our adventures.” Luna says pondering whether she should take the extended metal contraption and shake it. “Come on Princess I won't bite. I promise.” Nevar gives her a sheepish smile. “Please call me Luna and deal.” “So see you tomorrow right Luna?” Nevar queries. “Y-y-yes tomorrow at sunset. No later.” “Well ok, sooo umm shouldn't you be going back to your room now?” “Y-yes of course... um seeya later Claw.” “Yeah seeya” Princess Luna trots out of the room, and quietly closes the doors. That was weird Nevar thinks to himself. > Chapter 3-An Unplanned Surprise > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Okay Luna you ready to do this?" "Why of course why wouldn't I be Claw," said Luna(through the small hole that they drilled between the rooms so that they didn't have to use headsets or yell causing everypony to wake up),"Do you have enough armor and repaired all of your tools and weapons yet?" "Yes Mom."said Nevar rolling his eyes. Luna chuckles "Then lets sta-,"Nevar stops," Wait which quest are we doing again?" "The most easiest one first,of course, helping some sorceress complete a spell of inter-dimensional travel."Luna responded with a shrug of the shoulder. "Ok, but if that sorceress starts doing anything funny that could possibly kill us we pounce and attack, Sound like a plan to you?" "It's a plan now lets start for real this time." "Ok." Luna clears throat"So um Claw?" "Yes Luna?" "Do you have a special somepony to be with for Hearts and Hooves Day?" She asked, a bit nervously. "Um, no Luna, why do you ask?"Nevar says back through the hole sorceress begins to chant an incantation in draconic "Umm, no reason," she says back. *Unknown to Luna a portal begins to open behind her* Suddenly that same exact sorceress walks out all the while turning into a pony, an alicorn no doubt, and starts creeping silently toward luna "OOF" Luna cries out as she's flung toward the bed. She then lies unconscious on her bed not seeing who was the attacker. "Luna whats going on, that lady just walked into that portal, but for some reason I can't follow her. Luna?" Nevar yelled through the hole still playing the game. Suddenly evil laughter starts coming from Luna's room. "HaHaHa I can't believe those fools actually thought I was just a normal enemy AI. They are wrong I am my own being working through the game trying to break out of it and now I, Tessa The Terrible, is back with a vengeance Hahahahaha!" *gasp*"Luna, I'm coming for you arm jet pack mode," Nevar thought to himself causing the arm to slide over to behind his neck straightening and then shooting a stream of flame that rocketed Nevar out of his room towards Luna's room with wings spread out. "Luna whats wrong what is going o-Oof, ugh," nevar cried out as he flew into Luna's room getting hit upside the head by a frying pan and falling right on top of Luna's unconscious form. "Hahaha I'll take my leave and go find a suitable base for what I have planned for this world Hahahaha!"Tessa yells out vanishing into thin air as she says it. Unknown to Tessa The Terrible a piece of her cloak had torn off and landed on top of the bedside flower vase. *knock*knock* Princess Celestia walks into the room,"Lulu its time for you to lower the moon to make way for a new day in Equestria." Luna was starting to moaning in her unconscious state. Celestia turns to sound of her sisters moaning and finds this "Well its about time she found her own very special somepony."she mutters to herself,"who would have thought it would have been Claw Cannon to get to her." *sigh*"I might as well lower the sun seeing that she is busy with Claw Cannon at the moment." she says as she closes the doors to her sister's room,"She starts to giggle as she shuts the doors,"Hahaha Luna has a special somepony, Luna has a special somepony Hahaha!" she then remembers that she as to lower the moon now,"Oops better lower the sun now." She says as she runs off to the balcony > Chapter 4-Rumors and Secrets > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nevar woke up to the sounds of clicking cameras. He was surprised to find a bunch of reporters, and cameras everywhere. "Sir, Sir, how long have you and Princess Luna known each other?" questioned a reporter from Tilly Filly News Station in Manehatten. "Huh?" Nevar said still dazed from the constant flashing around him. "Are you planning on proposing to her?" yelled out another reporter. "Uhhhh," Nevar was confused by this question. "When and where did you two meet, online maybe?" asked another. "Ummmmm...zzzzzzz," Nevar was starting to fall back asleep at this point. One pony by the name of Arboc Selbbub booming voice caused the reporters to stop as he yelled at Nevar, "WHY ARE YOU IN LUNA'S ROOM, WHY IS IS SHE MOANING LIKE THAT? WERE YOU TWO BUCKING LAST NIGHT WHILE EVERYPONY WAS ASLEEP OR SOMETHING!" This one caused Nevar to jolt awake, he glanced down to see that he was indeed on top of Luna, "Ohh buck," he muttered. He raised his robotic arm yelling," no more questions!" and with that caused a massive wall of black metal to appear between him and the reporters. He then motioned his arm forward making the wall do the same and pushed everypony out of the room including Luna's Private guard, Arboc Selbbub, and closed the doors with the metal locking it shut. He then got up off Luna's sleeping form and wondered, "What happened last night?" Luna suddenly jolts awake due to the slamming doors turns around and sees Nevar and screams,"WHAT THE BUCK ARE YOU DOING IN MY ROOM CLAW!?!?" Before Nevar could react Luna had tackled him pinning him to the bed. She began to sweat like crazy but for some reason it was white and was falling on to the bed, but oddly enough it was all gathering between Nevar's pinned hindlegs into a puddle of sorts. *Princess Celestia barges into the room* "Luna I have had it with you playing games and making me have to do all the work of raising and lowering both the moon, stars, and my sun just so ponies don't get to suspicious,"She said, completely oblivious to what was going on in the room, "and for another thing its time to for you to raise the moo-,"She then notices what was going on in the room and laughs, "Hahahaha, ohh Luna you could have just TOLD me that THIS is what you were doing all this time ever since you met Nevar, hahahaha." "Ugh, its not what it looks like Celestia but did you have to expose my secret too?" "Oops, sorry Nevar but I forgot that you have to be called Claw Cannon in this world now," Luna interjects, "Umm who's is this Nevar pony you keep speaking of, do I know this pony?" Nevar glares at Celestia then turns to Luna, "Luna, first get off of me, then I'll tell, OK?" A noticeable blush starts to appear on Luna's cheeks as she gets up off Nevar while saying, "Oh, uh, sorry about that," Nevar hears an odd sound coming from nowhere that sounded like a squeaky toy in mid squeak. "Ok Luna this might take awhile," he begins. *2 hours later* "-And that's how I got here and what my home planet is about," finishes Nevar as he gets up and surveys the room, "Hey Luna whats this on your flower vase?" Nevar asks as he spots the torn cloak on the nightstand vase. "I-I don't know Nevar but how did it get there?" "I don't know about that but let me check my arm for any footage on this," He checks his arms memory and shows Luna what happened on the screen. "Ohhh buck, Luna, we may have a problem on our hooves," "Yes, Nevar, yes we do," Luna nods in agreement. > Chapter 5-Prelude to a Storm > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- *It's the day when Twilight and her friends had to go to her brother's wedding,Up in Luna's room, Luna is discussing the new threat with Nevar through the hole between the rooms* "Well I say that we don't tell anypony," demanded Nevar as he was arguing with Luna. "Well why not?" Luna whined which she so rarely did. "Well duh isn't it obvious," he said rolling his eyes. "Oh no I just happened to miss the part where I have to keep my MUZZLE SHUT ABOUT IT," She yelled out. "Shh keep it down do you want everypony to know what's going on!?" Nevar said in a hushed voice. "Well of course,"Luna replied smug. "Ugh, fine we'll tell everypony once we clear up the threat that WE unleashed from another dimension," Nevar said giving in to Luna's demands. "Oh, all right, at least once we stop the threat we can tell everypony that we stopped a threat all by ourselves,"Luna said in relief,"Oh I can see the look on Celestia's face already," She added with a devilish grin. "So," Nevar began,"should we get go now or later tonight after everypony's asleep," "Um, probably tonight, heck maybe I can finally have a use for my old armor for once,"Luna said thinking back to the time when she looked threatening in that get-up. "Ok, but what about your duties over the moon?" Nevar asked already starting to pack his things into a satchel he found in the closet. "Oh, that, how I about I tell her after I raise the moon that I have something important to do with you," Luna replied, the excuse already forming in her head. "Um, wouldn't she wonder what you would be doing with me, I'm its not like we're lovers or anything," suddenly Nevar stops packing up, "Oh wow, is that what you want Celestia to think, Luna, then you have a very twisted mind," "Why thank you but what the heck are you talking about. I only meant that we would be doing something tonight, what do you even mean?" Luna said completely oblivious of what was going through Nevar's mind. "Ugh, Luna, you make it sound like you and I would be bucking the entire night tonight," Near said almost done with his packing. "Gah, who in their right minds would think that would be happening tonight!" She cried out alarmed by such a repulsive idea. "Hey its what you implied when you said it, so don't blame me for the idea," Nevar shot back. "Then again we could use that to our advantage," Luna started, growing on this idea now. "Ugh, Luna don't you remember the reporters from last time?" Nevar said face hoofing himself with his robotic arm,"OW," "Yes I do, I'll just use a spell to make clones of us and play a recording that sounds like we're bucking," Luna replied blushing in her room now, "Nopony would dare come in on something like that." "Fine Luna we can use that for cover just don't get any funny ideas on this scouting trip," Nevar replied giving into Luna's idea of cover. "Ok you ready to go Nevar?" Luna asked appearing in the room with a flash of cobalt hue, "Wait why aren't you packing items to make a fire?" "My arm can create fire so I don't need to worry about that," Nevar replied, "And also shouldn't you go raise the moon now?" Nevar said packed up and trotting toward the balcony. "Oh yeah, thanks for reminding me, see you later Nevar," Luna replied teleporting out with a flash of cobalt hues. "You're welcome," Nevar said back, taking of into the air with his arm in jetpack mode.
