- >Equestria day 53
- >Thus we begin
- ---------------------
- >>You stand before Canterlot castle now
- >>Inside is where your answers will stem from
- >>What also awaits for you in there is the one that began this
- >>The god of Equestria awaits your return
- >>And you were going to go through the front door to her
- >>"Your really going through like that Anon?"
- >>Push Discord from your mind
- >>His chaos magic wouldn't be the most helpful here
- >>That power would destroy everything in sight
- >>And your body would be lost to him again
- >>That would never happen again, so long as you drew breath
- >>Discord was physically trapped in stone, so he could not harm anyone
- >>Your not sure how he got into your mind though
- >>It could have been the last moment before he was sealed in stone
- >>But that would mean his body was empty
- >>You shake the distraction from your mind
- >>The steps you take seem to echo in your ears
- >>This one god held your life in her hands
- >>And you were going to retch it from her
- >>Come hell or high water
- >>Till death will you quit
- >>Only you will command your life, and nobody else will stop you
- >>Not even the gods themselves
- >>The castle looks over you
- >>Its a beacon to your fate
- >>Two of Celestia's guard ponies block your path
- >>"Sorry pal, castle is closed to the publi-"
- >>He doesn't even finish the sentence before you kicked him in the face
- >>The first one you hit crumpled to the ground
- >>Next one, he turns to you in shock
- >>You pivot on your left and throw a low uppercut into his jaw
- >>He falls on his back, out like a light
- >>Keep moving forward
- >>Events have already been leading you to this, ever since Celestia made you her human
- >>And she was going to regret every moment of it
- >>The grass beneath your feet crumbles
- >>Fire burns in your eyes
- >>You could burn this whole castle with a stare
- >>The doors loom over you, not like the doors back at p0nyville
- >>These ones could fit a giant from YOUR world through with ease
- >>Why would she ever need these that big, the idea escaped you
- >>You plant your hands on both sides of the door and shove
- >>They creak open slowly
- >>Big slow opening doors never did sound good
- >>That was always the first sign
- >>Shit was going down
- >>Luna is standing between you and the door to Celestia
- "Luna?"
- >>"Anon, I know what thou art going to do."
- >>She doesn't look like the fighter type of alicorn
- "Your going to stop me then?"
- >>She smiles at you
- >>"No, thy journey awaits. But do not forget thyself in there. I bid thee farewell, Anon."
- >>She gives a humble bow and walks off
- >>Your left bewildered and confused at her action
- >>She was there, she could have stopped you
- >>But she told you to not forget yourself
- >>Could she see what you couldn't?
- >>Behind you, the sun was setting
- >>Luna was going to begin her magic soon
- >>So she came to see you and warn you of yourself
- >>Truly, she was the better of the two sisters
- >>"Now Anon, once you step through there, I cant help you."
- >>Discord again
- "And why would that be?"
- >>"Why not? Look, do you want some power to help or not?"
- "I dont know, your getting something from it."
- >>"Quick to the chase. Yeah, you get some wonderful chaos magic and I get a little control of your body. Fair deal right."
- >>Maybe if you were drunk and dying in an ally
- "Im going on my own Discord."
- >>His mental presence seemed to fade
- >>You let out a sigh and put your hands on the door once again
- >>With a shove they swing open and you step through
- >>The chance to turn back vanished the moment you stepped through
- >>Celestia has her back to you
- >>Her horn is glowing, she must be lowering the sun
- >>How nice of her to finish her job before you two got down to business
- >>You cross your arms and wait for her
- >>The sunlight vanished under the horizon line
- >>It was soon replaced by Luna's beautiful moon
- >>When she turned around and saw you she about jumped
- >>"Anon?! Wha-how..."
- "Surprised Celestia? Never wanted to see my face again?"
- >>She was in no mood for your talk though
- >>"ANSWER ME, HOW ARE YOU HERE?!"
- >>Her voice was ear-splitting, but you endured it
- >>She was not going to win this time around
- "You cant banish me into a hole. I will crawl out and find my way back."
- >>She smirks at you
- >>"We shall see then, human."
- >>Her horn began to glow the same color when she banished you
- >>Light envelops your body, you cant escape it
- >>But the spell soon fizzles away, leaving your body untouched
- >>"What? How is that possible?"
- >>You didn't know why either
- >>But you dont slip up, not now, not here
- >>Your legs move on instinct, and you charge Celestia
- >>She rears on her hind legs which leaves her stomach open
- >>Her horn glows green, but you are fast
- >>Your feet fly up the stairs and before she can cast, you punch
- >>Fist connects with Celestia's exposed stomach
- >>She staggers back but you dont stop moving
- >>You sweep her legs from under her and she falls
- >>With a thud you stand over her
- >>Her spell fires and you hit the opposite wall
- >>As you fall she stands back on all four legs
- >>You land on your feet and crouch low
- >>Fire burns fierce in your eyes, she can see it
- >>She readies another spell
- >>And fires a ball of light at you
- >>Your eyes go wide as you dart to the left for safety
- >>It explodes into the wall and leaves a hole
- >>She was going to destroy the castle to kill you
- >>She meant business
- >>You run with the speed of Dash on legs, Celestia keeps firing balls of energy at you
- >>Each one is able to blow a hole in the wall
- >>Dont want to see what it does to flesh
- >>Really wish you kept that gun right about now
- >>Then they stop
- >>Celestia is gone, and you stand alone in the room
- >>You had a bad twitch about what was next
- >>You didn't even hear it really
- >>When you turned though, Celestia's fore hooves planted into your chest and forced you down
- >>"I should have done this in the first place!"
- >>Her horn glows and she flings you across the room with a flick of her head
- >>You stagger when you land
- >>A ball of energy greets you when you look up
- >>It pushes you into the wall, and through it before exploding
- >>It sends you into the courtyard and on your back
- >>"Damn Anon, your getting your ass kicked."
- "Fuck off Discord."
- >>You spit it out as you stand
- >>Celestia lands a few yards before you
- >>"Discord? That useless piece of trash?"
- >>You swear you heard him break something
- >>"That tears it, Anon give me control!"
- "Fuck no, are you crazy?!"
- >>"Only for a second so I can PERSONALLY pound her into the ground."
- >>Celestia fires another orb of energy
- >>You roll out of the way and face her again
- >>"Seriously human, who are you talking to?"
- >>She cocks her head to the side and squints at you
- >>Then she erupts into laughter
- "What...dare I ask...is so funny?"
- >>She stops long enough to re-compose herself
- >>"Your body is harboring Discords mind! So if I kill you then I also kill Discord with it."
- >>You stare at her dumbfounded
- >>No amount of happy water was going to down this
- >>Celestia stamps her fore hooves into the ground and the earth begins to shake under you
- >>Around her, she pulls large chunks of the ground up
- >>Already you didn't like where this was going
- >>"Now just be a good little human and die this time."
- >>And she begins to hurl them at you
- >>"Good luck with that Anon."
- >>Discord says over your shoulder as you run to avoid death
- >>His life was on the line with yours and he was acting fine
- >>Better than fine really
- "Damn you and your fucking magic!"
- >>You shout over the sounds of crumbling earth
- >>Fucking Celestia and her power
- >>Your smacked in the face with a smaller rock
- >>Stagger a bit, and just barely jump the next one at your feet
- >>She's stopped using large rocks
- >>Now its onto the small fuckers
- >>And they were getting annoying
- >>When you dodge one, another replaces it
- >>When you see that one replace it, one comes from behind and gets you
- >>You were taking a serious beating here
- >>She sends a large one at you, but you were too distracted to see it
- >>It connects to your stomach and pushes you into the wall
- "FUUCK!"
- >>It kept going, the pain was like ripping your stomach in half
- >>"Damn it Anon! Use my power for chaos sake!"
- "I would rather die!"
- >>"Gr, FINE! Consider it a handout then!"
- >>Your about to tell him no, but a surge of power begins to flow through your veins
- >>With a push you send the rock back to Celestia and stand once again
- >>The real fight begins
