> Wrath of the Immortals > by Pitch a Fit > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > The Legend Begins > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- In the beginning, only the Immortals walked and breathed. They ruled small lands the existed below their realm. They called this land Earth. Then one day, The Immortal of Mischief created the mortal races, from the Ponies, to every other creature that lives today. At first the Immortals were overjoyed. They finally they had subjects to rule over and live on their lands. But then they rebelled. Two Ponies, Celestia and Luna, two sisters, encouraged the Mortal races to rebel against their Immortal masters. They said,” Why should we serve these creatures that have never seen? Why should we let the Immortals govern our lives!” The Mortals listened, and they agreed. The shrines of the Immortals were burned, any mentions of their names were destroyed, and the two sisters had brought down the entire empire the Immortals had carved out for themselves. The leader of the Immortals, the Overlord, was enraged, he ordered the armies of the Immortals to drop down from their realm and destroy the Mortals. But the Mortals would not give up. For 200 years the two sisters waged war against the Immortals. The Immortals had not lost a single soldier, while the Mortals lost thousands. It was like this for these two centuries, until that one day. 100,000 years ago, Celestia and Luna led the Mortals into battle and slaughtered 100,000 Immortals. The Immortals realized that they would lose the war now that the Mortals could kill them, so they made a pact. In return for 100,000 years of peace, the Mortals would have to let the Immortals slaughter 100,000 of their own. So for 100,000 years, the Overlord plotted his revenge, he waited for the day the pact would be broken, and little do the Ponies of Equestria know, that day is today. > Giving Orders > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- It was a normal morning for Twilight. She got up, got ready for the day, and then did her morning reading. Spike bothered her, just like normal. Everything seemed normal, except for one thing. She couldn’t put her hoof on it, something didn’t feel right. Just as she was about to go out and see what her friends were up to, Spike came running into the room. “Twilight! Message for you!” he yelled. Twilight ran to Spike and read the letter aloud. “My dearest Twilight Sparkle. I need you to come to Canterlot as fast as you can! Bring all of your friends with you. There is something I need to explain to you. From Princess Celestia.” “I wonder what that could be about?” asked Spike. “Only one way to find out Spike, let’s go!” Twilight said. It only took 10 minutes to gather everyone at the train station. Everyone was confused when they got there. Twilight quickly calmed them and told them about Princess Celestia’s message. “What do y’all reckon this is about?” Applejack asked. “Well, whatever it is, it must be important if the Princess asked for all of us to be at the meeting.” Rainbowdash chimed in. “Well, what are y’all waiting for, let’s go!” The train ride seemed much longer then it was. They all wondered why Princess Celestia would have summoned all of them to an emergency meeting in Canterlot. Then, the train stopped. The group ran through the streets as fast as they could. All the Ponies that saw them were confused. Why were they in a hurry? Finally, they reached the palace, and at the entrance, Princess Celestia and Luna were their waiting for them. “Hurry, we haven’t any time to waste!” Celestia said. “What’s going on?” asked Twilight. “All will be explained Twilight.” Said Luna. “Sister, if you would begin.” “Long ago, we were ruled by a strange race of creatures that came from the skies. We called them the Immortals. One day, Luna and myself led a massive rebellion against the Immortals. We waged war for 200 Years, but then we had peace, for a price. We killed 100,000 of their soldiers, they killed 100,000 of ours, and we had peace.” The six ponies and the baby dragon looked at the two Princesses with shocked and confused faces. But before they could ask any questions, Princess Luna continued the story. “But that peace only lasted for 100,000 years, and now, that time is up. We need your help. The Immortals will arrive soon, we must be prepared.” Princess Celestia then finished the statement. “Twilight, I need your help to train new magic users. Fluttershy, we need you to convince the animals to join us. Rainbowdash, we need you to train new flyers. Rarity, I need you to help create clothes and equipment for the army. Pinkie Pie, we need you to help recruit new soldiers. Finally, Applejack, we need food for the soldiers.” “What about me?!” said Spike? “You can help Twilight.” Said Luna. > Revenge at Last > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 100,000 years. That’s how long he had been waiting. But now, that wait was over. He was the Overlord, and he would have his revenge. He moved quickly out of his room, he wanted to be there when his army ripped apart that infernal planet. The Overlord moved down the path and into the grand hall. From here, one could see everything. “Send the transports down! Tell the soldiers to show no mercy!” he said. His minions complied with his orders, within the minute; the transports were on the move. The Overlord watched as they moved quickly through their realm. He told his minions to magnify the image, and once again, they complied. Soon, the others arrived; they were the Lords of War, Rage, Wisdom, Life, and Death. Their purpose was to make sure the Overlord didn’t gain too much power. The Overlord hated this rule they had put in their government. The Overlord had to resist the urge to kill them many times in the past, but today, he could not care less about their opinions. “You really think we can defeat the Mortals this time? They slaughtered thousands of our men! Revenge shouldn’t be our goal, survival, recovery, reconstruction should be our goals instead!” said the Lord of Life. “Shut up! Don’t you see, only two of those rebels are alive! Now, we can crush them; take back our territory! Soon, all the other races of this realm will fear us! All it takes is this one victory!” said the Lord of War. The other three agreed with him. “It is too late to stop what was written in blood and stone. They agreed to the pact. Don’t you remember? The Mortals challenged us! They warned us that if we returned to Earth, we would be destroyed! Now let’s prove them wrong! Let’s show them that we are the Immortals!” said the Overlord. The Lords cheered in approval! The Overlord simply smiled once he had convinced them. Suddenly, an explosion was heard. They all turned their head at the window through which they viewed the worlds. What they saw shocked some, but pleased many. A giant explosion caused by their army was seen on the planet, they could see the Ponies that lived in the city be consumed by fire. The Overlord smiled, it had begun. His revenge would soon be complete! The world would be his, then soon, every realm in which a creature lived. But down on Earth the Mortals weren’t happy they were suffering. “Mom, Dad! Where are you!” said a Pony as he crawled out from the rubble that was once the apartment he lived. He looked around, it was gone, it was all gone. In the blink of an eye, the entire city of Manehattan was destroyed. He was the only one left. The pony looked up and saw something terrifying. He saw a strange machine like monster standing above all the rubble. It was taller then any skyscraper that stood in the city, maybe ten times as tall then the tallest skyscraper that once stood in the city. It hadn’t noticed him. The pony ran as fast as he could, he wanted to get far away from the city as he could. He ran for his life. Smaller machines were chasing him. The pony had probably run 50 miles by now. He was very, very tired. He looked up and saw something in the distance, the city of Canterlot! At last, after hour and hours of running, he had found refuge. The pony moved forward a little bit and stopped in disappointment. The pony still had a long ways to walk to get where he wanted to go. He looked down and saw a small little village. He needed food and shelter for the night. But as he walked, he heard the sound of wings flapping behind him. He turned around and saw someone he never thought he would meet. “And who might you be young one?” said Princess Celestia. The pony looked up in amazement. If only Mom and Dad were around to see this. But he wondered, why would the princess be this far away from the palace. ‘Well, what is your name?” she said. “Pitch a Fit.” The young pony said. “My name is Pitch a Fit.” “Well, Pitch a Fit, let’s get you cleaned up, and don’t worry about Manehattan, everything will be fine. I know you wondering how I know, but just come with me, I will explain everything.” Pitch a Fit didn’t have any other option, so he decided to go with the Princess. Also, Pitch a Fit really wanted to know what the hay was going on. > Politicians and Rebels > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- “WATCH OUT!” a Pegasus said. Rainbowdash quickly dodged the incoming explosive projectile. She looked back at the Pegasus that warned her and said a quick thank you. There was no time for pleasantries; they had a war to fight. “Derpy! Take your squadron and reinforce Applejack’s troops at the square!” ordered Rainbowdash. Derpy quickly complied because she knew it was best not to get Rainbowdash upset. It was funny how fast things changed. Just one week ago they were issued orders. Now, those orders had changed. Rainbowdash was now in command of the Ponyville Air Wing, the only others that got commands in the military were Twilight and Applejack. Applejack was put in command of 105th Infantry Company, or Canterlot Company. Twilight was given command of Omega Team in the Unicorn Corps. It was funny, within one week; Princess Celestia and Luna had come up with an entire structure for the military and a new structure for the government. Right now, the Equestrian Military was fighting to take back the Ruins of Manehattan. Apparently, one of Princess Celestia’s cabinet members, the Director of Technology, had said that the only way they could defeat the Immortals was to examine they place were it all began. Of course, there were already problems with the new government. Protests had already started in villages all over Equestria and in Canterlot itself. The protesters started forming and organizing rallies after Princess Celestia and Luna announced that the entire kingdom would be put under martial law and the borders would be sealed. That meant curfews and less trade for the kingdom. The protesters called themselves the Iron Hoof, and they were starting to become a problem. Their main argument was that only a unified world could fend off the Immortals. They constantly awaited a counter-argument from Canterlot, but the two Monarchs could provide no response. While everypony had different opinions about the situation, they all could agree on something; everypony felt like someone was watching them and they felt like that someone was laughing and smiling. But what they didn’t know, was that they were right. High above the skies, above the moon, and above the sun, the Overlord watched, laughed, and smiled at the situation on Earth. He was the happiest he had been in not thousands of years, but millions of years. He would win this time and he would regain his honor. But the Overlord didn’t know that a plot against him was forming. The Lord of War walked down the dark path in the grand transport. He was upset with the Overlord’s newest decision to prevent the Lords from going down Earth. He craved for war; he wanted to fight and conquer! He wanted to destroy and feel the fun of combat again! But the Overlord would not permit it! How it enraged him! As he walked down the path suddenly, he heard a voice. “Hey, War, I hear you are upset with the Overlord?” “Who are you?!” demanded the Lord of War. “Why War, it’s me, Mischief!” said the Immortal of Mischief. “What do you want you evil little imp?” “Well, I have problems with the Overlord, you have problems with the Overlord, let’s work together! “ “What do you mean Mischief?” “I have assembled a army of Immortals to help us fight the Overlord’s troops! And then you can kill him and become the new Overlord! Then you can make the rules the way you want them!” “What’s the catch Mischief? There’s always a catch with your deals!” “Of course, how could I forget? I will help you if you name me the new Lord of War after you become the new Overlord!” It was tempting. He could stay loyal to the Overlord that had lead them for millions of years, or he could ascend to the throne and take command of their race himself. “All right, Mischief, I want in.” > Secret Alliances > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- He stood at the watchtower. For the past fifteen days, the Ponies had camped outside their mine. He had wanted to attack them all this time, but they had been ordered to observe them and wait for them to make the first move. He continued observing the camp, but then something happened. A small group of Ponies, at least five, were approaching the watchtower. “Arm yourselves men! The Mules are approaching!” he said. He ran down the stairs with a war hammer in his paw. Just as he ran down, a knocking sound came from the doorway. “Who is it?!” he asked. “This is Mystic Mane, Chief Diplomatic Officer of the Iron Hoof Movement. We are in need of the Diamond Dog’s services.” Said a voice. “Mystic Mane? Mystic Mane! Come on in old friend!” the Diamond Dog said. “Hello Rubytooth, long time no see.” Mystic Mane said. The Diamond Dog ushered the Ponies to follow him inside the tower. Rubytooth quickly ordered all of his men to stand down. He told the Ponies to follow him into the conference room. “It’s been years, Mystic. What brings you back to these parts, and what is this Iron Hoof thing? What happened to being a Royal Advisor?” asked Rubytooth as they entered the room. “You know, the war. Once it started, I saw the true political ambitions of the Kingdom of Equestria. The monarchy has turned into a dictatorship. Rubytooth, that’s why the Iron Hoof was founded. The Iron Hoof has realized that the only way to defeat the Immortals is to unite all of the Mortal races. The Equestrian Monarchy has failed to realize this. That is why were here.” “So you want the Diamond Dog’s help?” “That is correct.” “Mystic Mane, I can not get you an audience with the Chieftains. But I can help you in another way. I have been planning a coup for months. The Chieftain is going insane. He has been ordering us to do the strangest things recently, everything from ordering us to mine only one type of gem to kidnapping dogs in the middle of the night. Now I have my chance, thanks to you.” “So it looks like I am going to have to help you into and out of mess again?” said Mystic Mane. The Diamond Dog just simply looked down at the pony and smiled. The alliance had been made. Pitch a Fit did not know what to think. Sure Princess Celestia had rescued him and took him in, but the Iron Hoof had a great point. If we were going to defeat the Immortals, we have to unite to defeat the Immortals. But that was enough thinking for today. Working with Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy to recruit Ponies and Animals to fight the Immortals was very tiring. As he fell asleep, he saw bright light in his room. Suddenly, he was in white room. The floor, walls, and ceiling were shining; it looked like the room went on forever. Then, he heard a voice, “ Mortal” it said. He looked around trying to find the direction the voice was coming from. “Your name is Pitch a Fit, is it not?” the voice said. “Yes” Pitch a Fit said in a scared voice. “That is my name.” “Well Pitch a Fit, I am the Lord of Life, a Immortal.” Said the voice. “An Immortal! Get away from me you monster!” said the young, frightened Pony. “I am not here to hurt you young Mortal, I am here to help you. I know you will not listen to me, so here is what will happen. When you wake up Pitch a Fit, your powers will be activated. All the knowledge you have acquired will have finally paid off. You will be the strongest magic user on Earth.” said Life. “But I’m an Earth Pony.” he said, “How am I going to be a magic user?” “You will see young Mortal, you shall see.” Suddenly, Pitch a Fit was awake. It was morning, the sun was rising over the village of Ponyville, and something didn’t feel right. He looked down and saw a huge stack of spell books in his room. That wasn’t it though; he raised his hoof and looked in awe. It was glowing. The Immortal was right! But what was he going to do now? > Chaos Rising > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- She didn’t want to have to do it, but there was no other choice. She had consulted Luna for days about this act, even she was hesitant, but they had no other choice. Ever since the day he broke free, he has been held in a huge underground vault. Unfortunately, today was the day they set him free. Her royal guards escorted her through the winding halls of the stone vault; there was no telling what would happen once they set him free. They walked through last doorway an entered the holding room. There, in the middle of the dome shaped prison, was Discord’s Stone Prison. “Stand back!” she ordered, she did not want the guards to be injured. Princess Celestia began casting the spell that would free Discord from his stone prison. Her horn began glowing as she continued to cast the magic. Soon, laughing was heard throughout the prison. Suddenly, Discord was free. “Aww, Celestia! You set me free, how nice!” he said. Discord tried to teleport, but something held him in place. “Celestia, you set me free for a reason, what was it?” “Discord, Luna and I need your help. The world needs your help.” She said. “HA! You, need my help! Oh the irony! One day you lock me up then another day you are begging me for help! This just keeps getting better and better!’ “Discord, listen to me!” Celestia said, “The times for games is over!” “Oh, ok. But don’t deny the fact you think this is funny.’ Discord said. “Discord, they have returned. Celestia said. “What…” He was shocked. “WHAT!” Discord yelled. “Celestia, mobilize everything you can. I don’t care if it is a Pony, Buffalo, or even an ant! Recruit anything you can into your army! THIS IS NOT THEIR WORLD ANYMORE!” Everyone was shocked with Discord’s outburst. Everypony fell silent, and then Princess Celestia spoke. “I’m on it” He watched the battle from the transport. There was no way it should take this long to conquer the Mortal’s realm. He wondered if a supernatural force was aiding the pathetic creatures. Couldn’t he just win one battle! Were the forces of the universe working against him? As he sat and thought about this, someone entered his private observatory. “What is it?” the Overlord demanded. “Sir, our agents found something on the Earth.” Said the Lesser Immortal, He had gotten the Overlord’s attention. “What is it young one?” “Discord.” How he loathed that name. His species had defeated the Immortals in thousands of wars. While he was the lesser form of his species, Discord was still a menace. The Overlord was filled with rage. “What is your name?” “I am Herald, the messenger.” The Lesser Immortal said. “Well Herald, rally every soldier we have. Get every gun and mech ready! Release every monstrous creature we have on that world! Tell the men to only stop once Discord is dead! Say that the Overlord commands it!” “Yes, master!” “You are going to rise quickly, Lesser One.” the Overlord said. “Now go!” “Yes Master!” the Lesser Immortal said. He then ran out of the room to issue the orders. “DISCORD! I KNOW YOU CAN HEAR ME! I CAN HEAR YOU! THIS IS MY WORLD NOW! YOU AND YOUR MORTAL ALLIES WILL NOT STOP ME FROM GETTING MY REVENGE!” The Overlord yelled. He would win this time! Not even Discord, the destroyer of worlds, could stop him! Revenge would be his! > Revolution to Veangence > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- It was a success. Rubytooth had taken control of the Diamond Dog army. Mystic Mane had sent out word to the forces in Baltimare and Fillydelphia. The Royalist Dictatorship would soon fall and the Union would rise in its place. Now, it was time for a speech to Raise morale, and who better to give it then Iron Will? “NOW LISTEN UP EVERYPONY!” boomed Iron Will “WHEN SOMEPONY NEGLECTS, BREAK THEIR NECKS! WE WILL NOT STAND FOR THE RULE OF THE EQUESTRIAN MONARCHY! IF THEY REFUSE TO UNITE, THEN STAND UP AND FIGHT!” the minotaur had finished his speech. The army yelled in approval. It was time. Mystic Mane blew the horn that signaled the attack. The army charged. Everything happened so fast. By the time Mystic Mane had entered the city of Canterlot, he saw buildings on fire and bodies all over the ground. As he stepped over the bodies, Iron Wings, the leader of the movement, flew down to Mystic Mane. “Ah, Mystic Mane, just the pony I was looking for.” The pegasus said as he landed right next to the unicorn. “What is it that you need me to do?” asked Mystic Mane. “I am declaring you the governor of Canterlot. You will rule this area while I help or forces around the land.” “I am honored that you would choose me for this task my master.” “No, Mystic Mane, we are all our own masters’ now.” said Iron Wings. Mystic Mane watched him fly away to aid the other armies in the fight. As Mystic Mane looked up at the sky, he heard something strange come from the valley down below. He ran to the walls of the city. Whatever this was, it was more important than his new duties. “You cannot run from your past Mystic Mane...” he heard as he ran. He looked down and saw something strange in the village in the valley. Suddenly a giant, glowing wolf head flew right towards him. “NO!’ Mystic Mane yelled. “YOU CAN’T BE ALIVE!” Pinkie Pie was in shock, why on earth were ponies fighting ponies? They had just been told by Princess Luna and the Canterlot Guard about the coup. Fluttershy was angry, very angry. “How dare they?” she thought, “How dare they fight other ponies when we need to stand together against the Immortals?” In the middle of the silence, a noise was heard. “AHHHHHHHHHH” Pitch a Fit yelled. Everypony turned to see what was wrong. A bright light shined out of his mouth, eyes, and glasses. “What do we do what do we do?!” yelled Pinkie Pie as she panicked. Fluttershy just backed up in fear hoping that nothing bad would happen. “HE WILL PAY!” said multiple voices that stemmed to all come out of Pitch a Fit’s mouth. Suddenly, a wolf-like creature flew out of his mouth. “Years ago, the pony known as Mystic Mane stole my powers and took my life, today, HE WILL PAY!” said the creature. It flew out the roof of the library and headed directly towards Canterlot. “HELP ME!” said the filly as the lights the came out of him grew brighter and brighter. Princess Luna cast a strange spell that froze Pitch a Fit in place. “Rarity, tie him up with whatever fabric you can find.” ordered Luna. Rarity quickly went to find a fabric. The princess cast another spell. Suddenly, Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, Spike, and Rainbowdash appeared in the room. “Twilight, it has happened.” Everyone looked at the battle-scarred unicorn, she was shocked. Princess Celestia and Luna told her about the day this might happen after Luna had turned back to normal, but she never thought it might happen during the war. “I can explain.” said a mysterious voice. They turned and locked in shock and awe as they saw who stood in the door. > Author's Note: It's Coming Back > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- As the title says, it's coming back. Music, School, and other life stuff have delayed it much longer then it should've been. When the story returns, it will under go a re-write. I might keep the old chapters up for anyone who wants to see them. Sorry for the wait. -Pitch a Fit
