Chapter 7
(7 years later)
It has been seven years since the insistent I caused long ago. I have happily been living at the castle for that allotted time. I would wake up early in the morning, take a shower, and then I would head off for my training with the king. We still can't figure out how I turned into whatever it was I turned into seven years ago, but we did find out it was magic. I am now able to use magic, and I am able do more magic than anypony alive. Even the king himself. I couldn't figure out why, but I'm not complaining. After my training, the king and I would go get breakfast. We would sometimes eat with the queen and the princesses as well. They ate earlier than we did. I only saw the princesses, my new best friends because I never really saw Ruff anymore. We did stay in touch, but we did drift apart. I only saw the princesses once a month, if I was lucky. We didn't really spend time together, but when we did, we spent entire days together, sometimes nights as well.
Today however was different. I was on my way to my training that morning, but I could tell something was wrong. I could tell this because I could see pink clouds. I paid no mind to them. I just believed that they made a mistake when making the clouds. However, when they rained chocolate milk, it got my attention. I thought I might be going insane, but no I could see and taste chocolate milk coming out of these clouds. I went to tell the king immediately, but I could not find him anywhere. I also could not find the princesses or the queen. "Now where could they be." literally after saying that there was an explosion somewhere. So I did the logical thing anyone would do in this situation...run towards the explosion, because that is where all of the excitement is.
When I got to where I thought the explosion, exploded I found many things. First I found one of those rain clouds. But, that was not the weirdest thing found. I found a creature I have never seen in my life. He (or I hope it is a he. That is one of the many things in life you don't want to get wrong) was just looking off into the distance. I then inspected his height, guesses what he might weigh, and other things in that field. I then broke down his form, or at least I tried. He had the head of a pony, eagle and lion arm, crocodile and a horse's leg, a set of Mich. Matched wings, and a twisted unicorn's horn. To me, he shouldn't even be alive, but he is and I am not going to judge him for it. I would get very mad if somepony made fun of what I looked like. Ironically I did when I was small. Maybe he knows something about the explosion. I decided I was going to go talk to him.
"excuses me, but did you hear an explosion around here. I'm trying to find where the explosion went off and the pony that did it." "Well yes I did hear an explosion, but you will never find a pony alive that could have caused it", said the creature. "OK, why is that?" I was starting to get suspicious about this creature. "Because I caused it, but I didn't mean to. I just happened and nopony was around to get hurt. I'm sorry." "….that's ok, but where did the explosion go off?"
"It went off in the air nowhere near this building or any of the surrounding buildings…..You aren't scared of me" the creature in a scared, almost pathetic manner. "Why should I be scared of you, if it is about what you look like then you are mistaken. I would be mad if someone came up to me and started to make fun of me just because of what I look like." He was silent for a little bit then he burst into tears. He then embraced me. "Nopony has been as nice as you have to me, ever. I know we just met, but you are the first living thing that I can talk to without scaring off or making them pass out, Thank you."
'I know I need to find the king, queen, and the princesses, but this poor soul needs me.' So I let him run his course, until he was well enough to talk to again. He cried for many minutes after I had thought that. "Thank you, you have no idea how happy I am right now." "Oh I bet I do. Well anyway maybe you can help me now. I am looking for my king, queen, and princesses right now because they just disappeared, and I can't find them anywhere, do you think you can help me find them?" "Wait, do these ponies have a manes that move on their own." "Yes, how'd you know?" "Because I sent them to another dimension. I knew he was up to something, but I couldn't figure out what it was." I was silent for a while.
"Did you just say that you sent the royal family to another dimension?" "Yeah, they attacked me and I just reacted. I don't know how to control my powers very well yet." "How old are you and do you think you could bring them back?" "I am 13 and yes I believe I can bring them back, but will they attack me again?" "No they won't, because I will make sure they won't attack you." So he started to concentrate on how to bring them back. A little while later he said "Found them". The next I knew was that I had a white and dark blue pony on top of me. "Uhh sister where are we." "I think you are both on top of a friend and you can get off of me at any time, but if you are comfortable then you can stay as long as you want." "CONNOR, IS THAT YOU."
They are always happy to see me, but I can't figure out why. They started to snuggle me, like they normally do whenever we see each other. A few years ago they started to fight over me, because they always enjoy my company, or I think that is why. "He's mine." "No he's our's." I just lay there, letting them fight, because I think it is hilarious when do this. "Wow, you are special", said my new friend in the back round. I then heard the king say, "It's the Draconicus, Connor kill it." "What! Why would I do that?" "Because he is a Draconicus, an abomination to nature. It has to die." I could not believe what the king just said.
"Shame on you your highness. True he looks a little strange, but that is no reason to kill him or do anything to him." "How dare you disobey-""How dare I, you want to kill an innocent live. You're the one that attacked him, if anything what he did on accident to you was a good thing if that is how you treat other species!" The whole time we were yelling at each other, the Draconicus got behind me and tried to hide the best he could from the King. Solance was speechless, no living being has ever back talked him. He looked like he was going to explode. "IF YOU INCOLENT FOOL WON'T KILL THAT CREATURE, I WILL, NOW DIEEEEEEEEEE!" My new friend started to run way from his attacker. The king launched himself at my new friend. My friend didn't get that far before he was thrown to the ground. The king was about to finish off him, but I wasn't going to allow that. I was so mad that this fucking bastard would do something so wrong just because my friend looked different. I felt something familiar inside of myself boiling out of me.
My body was surrounded by a familiar aurora again. My eyes lit up again. I then launched myself at the king with so much force and so much speed he went flying into the air. I would say he went about a quarter of a mile in the air. At first he scrambled to catch himself, but he finally regained himself. "What hit me?" He looked down at me and he looked like he was going to shit himself. "What are you" is what he would have said if I let him finish his sentence. I jumped up at him and hit him directly in the face. I don't know how I was able to get to him in such a short amount of time. Now when I mean short, I mean 30 milliseconds or less.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhh", he screamed in agony. "If you think it is a good idea to kill creatures that aren't normal, then why don't you KILL MEEEEEEEE!" I was somehow flying in the air like the king, but I didn't have wings. I proceeded to beat the shit out of Solance (an example of what happened, but only the from 7 seconds to 17 seconds, everything else is irrelevant). When he hit the ground, there was a crater where he had landed. Within a second I was where he was. He was conscious, but he looked like a jumble pile. He obviously had broken bones and many other health problems.
I picked him up by the throat, "You will kill you if you EVER TRY SOMETHING SO STUPID AGAIN." I threw him back into the ground. He was unconscious. I then proceeded to heal him. I knew how to do this because he had taught me how. When I was done, he was back to perfect health, but he still was unconscious. I knew as soon as he awoke he would throw me in the dungeon or he would have me executed, so I took off again. I flew way, and I would say I was flying close to the speed of light because I was already in the forest by the time I took off.
Still in my super form I thought of what I was going to do next. 'I know I may never return to Equestria, or at least for a while. I bet Celestia and Luna hate me now and probably never want to see me again. I will be executed if I am ever found, so I am going to leave Equestria forever.' "But child, that will not be 'necessary." 'What the, who said that and how did it know what I was thinking?' I turned around. What I found was not what I was expecting. I found a crystal cave and what looked like a crystal pony as well. "I know a way for you to stay in Equestria forever, but you will have to do something incredible to do it", the crystal pony said. 'I don't trust it, whatever it is, but what it speaks of is interesting me.' "And how is that?"
"Well all you all you have to do is freeze yourself in time until you feel it is time to reawaken. I can do this for you. Also if you do choose to do this you will be frozen in time for the next 1700 years, so there will be no record of you ever existing. The chose is yours." So I thought about it.' Well I can't stay here because I would be killed on site where ever I went inside or outside of the country and if you choose to do this it might kill me otherwise, so I will die either way. I might as well give it a shot.' "Fine, I've got nothing to lose. I will take you up on your offer."
He smiled at me. "Then follow me." So I did. We went into the cave. It was magnificent, but there is not time for sightseeing. We eventually got to what I could only describe as a giant clear white crystal somewhere in the cave. "All you have to do is channel some of your energy into it and the rest is done." I walked up to the crystal, I put my hand on it, and I concentrated. I started to pour my energy into the crystal and it lit up. After a few minutes the crystal started to form around me and eventually the crystal was completely around me. "Just a little more and you will be sent on your way."
After a little longer of this I was starting to get tired. This crystal can hold a lot of power. But then a blinding flash of light was set off and I was frozen in the crystal. 'Have a nice rest hero and may you have a safe journey to your new life' was the last thing I heard before everything went dark.
