A Box and A Ball
Chapter 7: Alone again
Previous Chapter Next ChapterCalenders exist now... And so do clocks. Its been some years... um... Tia holds a grudge. I forgot how to control my powers so instead of instantly eating a slice of cake I ate a fourth of a regular sized cake translating to all of Celestia's cake rations being a small cake.
I got a letter today that I might get drafted for a war, but if I leave then who will feed the civilians? Food is scarce and everypony is trying to look for Jake's iron ax. Little do they know where the bread comes from. I must protect his- my ax from anyone who wants to abuse it.
I guess I can call this February 10, 0008 A.B. (After Banishment). We are a week into the "Tri-War" and its been getting bad. My form is always earth pony so that I can live with the farmers. Pegasi stopped giving the ground rain and unicorns are attacking the sky, while we are in the cross-hairs. They starved until I got out the axe and started eliminating county hunger with a food drive of bread, carrots, and apples. My nickname in town, Sunny Plains, is 'the Giving One' or 'Mr. All Miracle'.
Since then I've started calling my iron ax "The All Giver". March 3, 0008 A.B. I discovered that I can use the All Giver's power inside my inventory, ponies tried to make me their king and I refused. There was a rumor of Celestia making cake in her castle for herself and said "Let them eat cake!" In reality it was a plot to overthrow Celestia and put me in charge.
"Ya know? I'm just going to give up." I said on a wooden chair / "my throne" with a metal ring on my head. Fun fact: These ponies around me never listened to me until now.
"What was that, sire?" a purple mare asked from nearby. They paraded me all over while I dropped food for the masses with a wave of my hoof.
"Wait. Did you just respond to me?" I said as I sat up while tossing a carrot behind me.
"..."
"No! No! Please respond!"
"Yes my lord. Why are you giving up? I mean, what are we doing wrong?" she asked turning from eye contact.
"THAT! I never asked to be royalty! Last I checked I was being told not to transform into nothing, but an earth pony." I untucked my hind legs and lied on my belly, kicking apples behind me as the conversation starts.
"Transform?" she regained eye contact with me. To show proof I became a flying unicorn, not to be confused with an alicorn which is three races instead of a race with a second race mutation. It made matters worse for me because now everyone is shouting, "ALICORN ALICORN!"
Of Lords and Ladies... and Mew Two, OMG!!!
Author's Notes:
I decided to finish this before it was 100% canceled. Oh and pokemon is cannon so why not add 'em?
I spent a few years preventing the execution of our favorite solar monarch inside the Castle of the Pony Sisters. Waves upon waves of ponies came through the doors: assassins, a brave civilian, a foolish civilian, griffons- you name it. They never came through.
I had superior tactics. Stab, run, stab and slash, run, hide, cry, use magic, fly away, and so on. That was until Clover the Cleaver's little son came in with a friggin' Mew Two! Mew Two held Celestia as I faced off with him in my Pegasus form.
"Damn it, Gary, what're you doing?!" I questioned.
He laughed his young butt off before responding, "Isn't it obvious? The nation is hungry and she is doing nothing about it!"
"That's because she is too busy and my food can not be given out fast and far enough!"
"You have food? Where?"
I shook my hoof, a potato materialized and I tossed it to him. Bad idea.
"My Rattat dies of malnutrition and you of all ponies could've saved him!" His horned glowed blue, which then grew surrounding him in his magic-aura.
"Don't do this! The war is driving everyone apart and everyone claims that I could replace Celestia! I'm not a god!"
"You're right... Because, I should rule Equestria!"
I shifted into my Pegacorn form, throwing him off guard. I let out a breath, "Not an alicorn. No earth pony in me, just unicorn and the obvious."
<Fools! You are not gods! Ponies are not meant to rule!!!> Mew Two 'said'. His pokeball shattered from next to Gary as purple aura surrounded him and Celestia's neck, choking her.
<This magic... it allows me access to my full POWER!!!>
"Go, Blastoise! Hydropump!" Gary summoned a huge tortoise with two tank cannons protruding from his shell, firing a stream of pressurized water at the psychic.
I galloped right next to him, "Yeah, give the ultimate magic user water- wait! The well dried up and yet you have water!"
"Sh- shut up!"
"At least I tried to give food!"
I flew head first into Mew Two, who countered with a wall of ice. Thanks Gary! Oh, and it looks like Gary is partially frozen. Using my own pokemob, Ditto, I copied myself as a Rapidash.
"Oh, hello, Gary! Do you think I look... hot? hehe" my Ditto "Boo" said, nudging Gary. I've made a terrible mistake. Boo is an amazing magic user and "copy cat" that is never serious... even when Nightmare Moon was banished. It just hopped around Celestia as Nightmare Moon, causing her to cry nonstop every time it entered the room. That is until I caught him.
Boo burned us out of our ice prison before being hit by a chunk of ice. For the first time in my life... Boo looked mad.
"Oh, its you. The perfect sample! Boo will watch you burn in tartarus!!!" the words filled with venom as Boo unleashed Starswirl's own "star blaze" attack. Millions of mini meteors were shot at MT, who dropped Celestia in order to block the sudden attack.
The three of us were forced to run as the castle became more unsafe...
Years later, a memorial for Boo was made in his service for saving the princess and her adopted brother Box as well as an unnamed pony with a turtle.
Gary was now a teen about my height asked, "Are you sure, you're not a god?"
"No. I'm just an odd immortal pony with odd magic... and a royal big sister watching my back."
