Chapter 1 of 3.
Silver Heart tossed a pony out the window as he yelled "HOW DID YOU LET THEM GET PAST THE BORDER!? Now Celestia is in control of a new army!" Silver Heart yelled at his generals "I have you all one task, keep our borders safe and keep anyone from leaving and you let her and her hope out of our country!"
"Sir, our military are thinned out try to keep the humans from turning on us and with the crystal empire on the move, they have taken Vanhoover and are moving to Cloudsdale, maybe if we recruit the hu-" The stallion's voice was cut off as his head snapped around.
"Humans will never join our ranks!" Silver Heart glared at the now dead pony "Do your jobs or else. Now leave my sights."
The generals left the room "You should listen to your generals." Silver looked at the figure poking the dead body.
"Who are you?"
The figure chuckled "You don't remember my smooth voice? I'm the one that awoken that magic within in you." The figure stepped into the light. Silver Heart's eyes widen, the figure was a human yet his eyes were blood red and his hair was flowing with blackness, it looked like a black hole.
"W-What are you?" Silver Heart could feel darkness flowing through the room and the coldness of his eyes froze him in place.
"I'm am Ruby, I'm the God of you ponies and the God of underworld."
"I thought Hades was the God of the underworld?" Silver Heart asked.
"Over the centuries my cousin had pissed off some of the other God's forcing him to give up his throne to me." Ruby walked towards the stallion "Your chances of this war working out in your favor is now slim with the magic stolen from your kind."
"What are you talking about? I'm more powerful than anypony!" Silver Heart yelled.
"King Matthew is more powerful then you are, with the bloodline of the king of Avalon and the bloodline of Celestia his magic is more powerful then you are." He took a seat and ate an apple "However, his magic is unlimited, his magic will be his downfall."
"And how do you drain him of his magic?" Silver Heart asked.
"You have one of the keys, the heart of stone, with that sending waves and waves at him will break him, however that won't be enough as he would wipe them out and drain you of your magic." Ruby said looking out the window "However the dead can't be stopped, I can open the doors to Hades and you'll have the army that can finally put an end to this."
"What will it cost me?"
"Just your loyalty, a day will come where I'll need your army, your magic and your soul to fight for me for the kingdom of all life itself." Ruby said placing a amulet down "This amulet will allow you to call upon the dead and bring that human to his knees once and for!" Ruby looked at Silver Heart with a smile on his face "What do you say King Silver Heart? Join me and you can rule this world."
"I can summon this army whenever then?" Silver Heart asked.
"Yes, however only when I allow it." Ruby said standing up "King Matthew isn't even leading this army as of yet." Ruby walked towards Silver Heart "You must challenge him to battle in the open fields in Cloudsdale, you must use your magic to bring out his magic and force him to use his magic then dead shall help you."
"Why must I face him? Why not just send the army to him?"
"His powers need to be awaken in order for us to drain his magic and kill him." Ruby placed his half eaten apple down "You have three days to gather your forces and move to Cloudsdale and take challenge him." Ruby faded leaving Silver Heart with his thoughts.
"Flash! Gather the armies! We move out at dawn!" Silver Heart called out.
Applejack watched as Matthew was being measured to have armor made for him.
"For a king he'll need golden armor with a red cape." Celestia said.
"W-With all do respect C-Celestia, the armor should just be made out of iron." Matthew said looking at the princess.
"With crystal and iron we can make an armor for you King Matthew." The mare said bowing.
"Y-You don't need to bow, a-and thank you."
The mare left Applejack and Celestia alone with Matthew "A-Are you sure I need armor?" Matthew asked.
"Yes, you'll need armor in order to keep yourself safe in battle." Celestia said "Why don't we get some food."
"Applejack why don't you go with the princess, I'll meet you two there in a moment." Matthew said looking at Applejack.
"Alright, don't take too long." Applejack kissed his cheek as she walked away with Celestia leaving Matthew alone.
Matthew walked over towards the table and lifted up the sword from Avalon "With Princess Cadance and Prince Shining Armor here with their army, will it be enough to break through to canterlot or will we be forced to pull back." Matthew pulled the sword out of the holster and looked at the steel "Do I really have the power to stop Silver Heart?"
"You shouldn't doubt yourself young King." Matthew turned to see a man standing within the room, his hair was that of blue flames and his eyes were a bright yellow, his hands and up his arms were covered in blue scales and his teeth were shaped like a dragons. Matthew could feel a strange power coming from him.
"W-Who are you?" Matthew asked.
"I am the God of Dragons, I came here to kinda get that dragon blood inside you flowing so the dragons within you can awaken for the battle ahead." The man said walking over towards Matthew "Do not worry, it will not hurt." The man placed his hands Matthew's forehead and Matthew felt fire flowing through his veins "I'm also allowing you to access not only the dragon who gave the first king his powers but you'll be able to access all races of dragon's."
Matthew felt a fire in his belly as he felt all the races of dragon's flowing through him "W-Why me?"
"To be honest I'm tired of my cousin causing chaos, that's Discords realms." He said removing his hand from his forehead "My sister and I want this war done with, I've kept out of this war but now with my sisters Griffons being forced as slaves and my dragons fighting for you, I know you'll break the chains of this world that Ruby has forced upon this world."
"S-Sister? R-Ruby? W-Who are they?" Matthew asked.
"There are many God's my young King, when this war is over I shall tell you all you need to know, for now it's best that I leave, if the Elder God finds out I'm helping Lucy I might find myself being locked away like her." The man faded away leaving a confused Matthew.
Matthew placed the sword into the holster and made his way out of the tent. He saw humans and ponies gathering in front of one of the buildings that has a sign hanging up that said Mess Hall.
Matthew made his way towards the Mess Hall for some dinner.
Lucy stood in her sunflower field tending to them when a dark circle destroyed her flowers.
"I can't believe this is where father put you." Lucy saw her brother Ruby standing before her "How many centuries have you been locked away?"
"The day King Drake was born." Lucy said "What are you doing here brother?"
"I've came to tell you King Matthew will be killed and the rest of the bloodline of King Drake." Ruby said chuckling as he sent his darkness flowing through the realm "And you my dear sister will finally lose this chess match."
Lucy placed her hands down to the ground as the light from her hands brought to life the dead flowers "I still have my knight, my king and my queen. You just have a king."
Ruby chuckled "Your knight is dead, your king is about dead and as for the queen, Celestia is powe-" Ruby's words were cut off by Lucy "Celestia isn't my queen, I didn't choose my queen my king has chosen her and because he has chosen one who brings out the true king within him." Vines wrapped around Ruby's arms and legs locking him in place.
"You really think these vines will hold me?" Ruby asked chuckling.
"No." Lucy said "In this realm my power is weaken." She said taking a step forwards "Tho because you have come to my jail without the amulet of the king your powers have become weakened by entering this realm, you think the power of Hades can keep your powers intact? No, only Discord and our fathers amulet can keep powers within this realm strong." Lucy punched Ruby in the face "That's for being an ass." Lucy then let the vines let go of him "You do not have long before you're powerless to leave this realm."
Ruby glared at his sister yet he knew he had to flee before he was trapped in this prison with her "When Matthew is killed I'll make sure his body is brought here for you to see your humans are weak."
Lucy watched as her brother stepped through the rift "You know I can help you escape." Lucy looked to see Discord hovering there.
"If I escape this realm my father will lock me away in chains." Lucy placed her hands down to the ground and brought the life back her brother killed by showing himself in this realm.
"If you escaped you can give Matthew great aid in this war." Discord said.
"I put my faith in Matthew, If I feared this war would end my children then I would have asked you the moment you came here." She said giving Discord a smile "The other God's aren't happy, as we speak Rex is now unlocking the dragon's blood within Matthew's body." Lucy looked back at Discord "I wonder what will awaken the dragon within him when the time comes for him to save her."
Lucy could hear the roar of the dragon king "What was that?" Discord asked trying to find the source.
"That is the sound of the king in battle." Lucy said with a smile as she already knew what is about to unfold "You better return Discord to Matthew's side, he'll need you." Discord snapped his fingers and he was gone "Your powers to see the destiny of all living beings Eliza is amazing." Lucy said looking at Eliza as she appeared behind her. Lucy looked at the feathers that made Eliza hair and her bright blue eyes shining.
"That's my mother's gift." She chuckled "You're lucky our father has an amulet to allow me to stay here to help you watch the battle of your children."
"The ponies are my children as well, my brother may have given them life but he has twisted what they once were." Lucy said placing her hand her Eliza arm "Your children shall be freed, my king will break the darkness that's holding your children."
"I know this cousin." She said with a smile "If anything my children are yours as well, you have watched out for all our children and tried to keep them safe. With Ruby seeking power we had to pick your side, your heart has always been towards the needs of all while your brother has been forcing our children to fight wars, to kill one another and I'm tired of it." Lucy felt Eliza arms wrap around her "You are my Queen to server over all of us."
Lucy felt a tear fall down her cheek as she hugged her back.
