I hear that the surgery on Silver's face is going well. Our unicorn doctors are the best in the world. I had also aided in his recovery too. I watched as his face began to look less shredded and broken. I had to step away and let the professionals work more. It was apparent that his vocal cords are so weak, they were afraid that he was going to be mute the rest of his life. Another strange thing we found, we scanned his biological clock and found that he was over two hundred years old, but he didn't look a day over twenty.

What kind of war puts their stallions this young to fight. Ordis had explained to me that Silver had spent years trying to focus his energy. This must mean he must have been only about ten when he began his training or even younger... I shed a few tears. In all his life, Silver was born to fight. I had punished him, and he was only doing what he knew... He had protected that mare's goods. He had only done what he thought it was right...and I punished him.

"Oh Aunty...." I sobbed. I cannot believe I had just punished a child. "I'm so horrible...."

"Why do you say that?" I heard Celestia's voice behind me.

I jumped around and saw my aunts and Twilight with her friends. Next to them was Shining Armor. "I'd explained to them what was going on." Shining said, walking up to me, he nuzzled me gently, and kissed Skylar. "Now why are you crying."

"I punished a child..." I said, wiping away a few of my tears from my eyes and face.

"What doth thou mean young Cadence?" Luna asked. "Do you speak about the creature you house?"

I nodded. "I had punished him for doing the only thing he knew... He was born during a time called the Great War, the first decades of it. His mother left him at a military base as soon as he was old enough to eat solid food. After that..." My ears sprayed back. "He was trained to fight. His carriage named Ordis told me everything."

"Truly you jest?!" Luna laughed. "Carriages do not speak."

"Actually, it does, and it knows puns and knows how to sing." Shining added his two bits.

"How is he doing by the way Cady?"

"He's still sleeping. Doctors said that he hadn't slept in years out side of some frozen stasis."

"Cryostasis?" Twilight's ears perked up. "I need  to know how his kind had found the solution to ice crystals forming in the cells! Such a feat would catapault Equestria to a new age!!! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!"

I giggled. "Perhaps you haven't changed at all Twilight...." She blushed and looked away.

"May we see him?" Celestia asked me softly.

"He's on the other side of this door." I replied. "Go ahead, but I don't think he-" The door opened wide and I saw Silver stretch his arms out and yawned. "The medication shouldn't have worn off by now! What are you doing up?" I saw him shrug and looked over to the others.

I saw him drop faster than a fat fly on Taco Tuesday onto his knee. He rested his right arm on his knee while his left fist touched the floor. There was a strange black thing on his back that we weren't able to remove without killing him, it only seemed to bend along with his back. He kept his head down as Celestia, Luna, and Twilight walked up to him.

"What is your name?" Silver remained quiet, his vocal cords are still too weak, but with constant upkeep on him with regenerative spells, he should be fine within two months.

"He can't speak your highness." Shining said. "At first it was a vow that he would not speak until he was no longer able to uphold the oath his kind's warriors made, but now it seems that since he hasn't spoken for so long, his vocal cords are too weak to make sounds beyond laughs or grunts." Silver nodded. "And his name is Silver, his kind are called Humans, and his title is shared with other Human warriors called Tenno."

Celestia rubbed her chin slowly. "That's most interesting. Silver? You may stand." And so he did. It had even seemed that he was taller than Celestia. Her eyes widened as she found herself a foot shorter than he was. "My you are tall..."

Luna walked around him, examining the strange black think on his back. "The metal on his back seems to be partially organic by nature, yet also metallic. It is fused with his body." Silver nodded, confirming her judgments. "How advanced is your kind?" Silver only remained still as he looked down at Celestia.

Their eyes seemed to be locked together. As princess of not only love by emotions, I felt a rainbow of emotions. Rage and hate mixed with hope and comfort. It was so strange to see her locked in a battle so quiet. I swear even now that it looked like they could cut open the earth with their gazes. His amber eyes met her magenta eyes in a heated battle.

"Many of my own ponies would not gaze into my eyes Silver." Celestia said with a deep frown, and all Silver seemed to do was have a smile on his face. He held out his hand as he took a step back, his smile still there. Celestia set her hoof on his hand and all of time had seemed to freeze.

State your purpose as to why you made me do this creature.

I mean no harm, only peace.

Say that to the stallion you almost killed.

I could have killed him. Theft is wrong, and he emotionally assaulted a young mare. Do not get me wrong...Celestia...Everfree...

Silver, you should not be in my head.

We are in a plane where our minds mix. Should you feel to see my war torn life, feel free. I am merely trying to collect data on your kind. It seems that I am going to be here for some time while I await the Lotus to find me.

Celestia frowned at the mental image of Silver. -Still...You should not be in-

Why do you hate me? His question seemed to echo in Celestia's mind. I have done nothing wrong, nor have I violated Equestrian law. I made a citizen's arrest after assessing the situation. I have been nothing but respectful to you, and all you give me is hate. Why? For a being as powerful as you, why would you waste your immortal life on hate?

You are dangerous.

I could say the same thing to all of your kind, Celestia Everfree. You can fly, obtainable energy from the environment around you that you can turn into a weapon.

Magic is not used for combat unless a unicorn is trained.

This explain the stallion who tried to hurt me Celestia Everfree! He shouted across the plane, his teeth bared slightly. If you won't accept the fact that I had arrested that stallion, then take it as self defence! AND YOU YOU STILL WON'T TAKE THAT-THEN YOU ARE DUMBER THAN I HAD THOUGHT FOR AN IMMORTAL! His voice tore the plane, weakening the link between them. Consider this, if I were one of my enemies, one attack would all it would take to start a war...I will say this one more time. I come in peace, I will defend your kind and all others should the need arise.

I watched Celestia glare up at me. "This is not over." I nod as she walks away.

"What happened?" Asked the purple alicorn. I think her name is Twilight Sparkle. I read the memories of Celestia. Her friends are Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Apple Jack, Rarity Belle, and Fluttershy. Celestia's thoughts were mostly around Twilight, but I was unable to look into more. She didn't like that I had slipped into her mind like I had.

"I have yet to make a decision." Celestia narrowed her eyes at me. "But it seems that no matter what I can do, it is up to Cadence now." I watched as Celestia trotted off.

Shining whistled. "You made her angry. Not a smart idea, but damn."

Luna smirked over to me. "We are going to keep an eye on you warrior. Perhaps we should spar sometime...For now, I should go speak to our sister." Now Luna had left.

Twilight looked over to me, a small frown on her face. "I don't think she's right for disliking you Silver, I'm sorry she doesn't like you. We should  get to talk sometime without many distractions. I would love to learn what I can, and your kind seems interesting." She bowed to me, making me a little confused. "Welcome to Terra, Silver. I am Princess Twilight Sparkle, but you can just know me as Twilight." She held out a hoof. I had to get on one knee again and I shook her hoof with a gentle smile.

I saw the mare Fluttershy step closer to me while the entire conversation with Twilight. I looked to her and saw her step back. "Do your scars hurt?" She asked quietly. I figured that she was a shy one, which was implied in her name. I shook my head. "Did they hurt?" I reached over and rested my hand on her head. My soft touch seemed to make her nuzzle.

Of course... She hugged me tightly and sniffed. Do not cry for me little one. I am fine now. Once I get in my Warframe again, all will be well. I'm sure that you'll enjoy it.

I looked over to Shining Armor while the other mares seemed to gaze at me with shock written straight across their faces. I motioned to my BioSteel back cover and he nodded. "They're in your room. Ladies, I should take him to get his things."

"Why does he require his armor?" Asked Twilight.

"So he can eat dinner with us. He doesn't have anything else to cover him."

"W-well...h...he doesn't have f-fur...so h-he must have cl-clothes on at all times...Or...he might freeze."

"Sweet Celestia, doesn't that chafe?" Rarity asked, and I shook my head to her. "Then perhaps you should visit Ponyville sometime, I might be able to help you get out of that armor." If she saw me in it, I don't think she'll want me out.

"Alright, well see you all later. Come on Silver, you need to get dressed for dinner." I waved goodbye to the mares with a smile, and Fluttershy was the only mare there other than Cadence to return it.

Twilight scratched her chin slowly. "I don't get it, why would princess Celestia hate him?"

Rainbow Dash shrugged. "Heck if I know. He looked pretty cool with all those scars. AND that thing on his back, that looked cool too!"

"Princess Luna seemed tah like'm." Apple Jack said. "And ah don't feel funny when ah saw him."

"You girls have points, but Celesita never hated a pony before." Twilight looked around. "Then again, he isn't a pony."

"Well, he is different." Fluttershy said once again shocking everypony. "He looks so hurt, I don't think he wants to hurt us."

"Ya been mighty vocal to that hoo-man." Apple Jack noted.

"I must agree with AJ darling. You never act like that to new ponies." Rarity added her two bits.

Fluttershy smiled. "He's like one of my hurt animals." Everypony's eyes widened. "What?"

"We should try to find his carriage. I think I saw it parked flying over by the dining wing. I'll go check out who this Ordis is. Perhaps he can tell us more about Silver." The girls nodded. "The rest of you can either come with me and learn until dinner comes, or do whatever you like."

"I think I shall visit the spa." Rarity said. "It's been quite some time since I've been here."

"Ah wanna see if this place gotta bar yet, what about you Rainbow?"

"Oh I'm in!"

"Please don't get too wasted girls."

"Ain't no harm in a couple'o drinks now Twi. Don't worry. Pinkie Promise that we'll only have two at the most." The athletes went through the motions.

"I think I'm going to make some of these grumpy guards smile." Pinkie said walking over to a guard who looked like he was ready to bolt.

"Fluttershy?"

"I-I'd like to go with you. I wan-want to learn more about h-Silver."

"Alright be back at the castle by four everypony. Dinner will be ready by five." Everypony who wasn't going with Twilight nodded, and AJ and Rainbow dashed out to go find a bar. It was already two, so they had to move quick. "Come on Shy, we got learning to do."

"Sister, we do not understand. Why must you hate him? You do not know what he has been through that made him who he is. And our dear niece has explained he was raised only to know how to fight." Luna said, a hint of sadness deep in her voice.

"He is dangerous to Equestria, and since he's Cadence's issue now, I can't do a thing to stop her. This is her land, and her laws."

"What if he had to be sent to Equestria Tia?"

"Then he'll be put somewhere I can keep an eye on him. He is too dangerous to be around normal ponies."

"We still do not understand. He has done nothing wrong to make note of. He committed no crimes here nor Equestria. What you are doing is raciest and unjust. We are most surprised by your actions."

"But what if Luna!?" Celestia barked. "I saw his mind!"

"Did you really look into him?" Luna asked. She had made herself sound angry, and by all rights she was. She was upset that her sister would just act like this over a new being. His first impression of her sister was not a good one. "Did you really see what he is, what his code of honor is?! You may be a goddess Tia, but should you truly hate a creature of the universe who just happen to do the only thing he knows how to do!?"

"Luna w-"

"NO 'WHAT IF'S' TIA!" Luna shouted. "He has done nothing wrong! He acted with the intent to defend not only the victim, but he was acting in self-defense! Say you where him and he was you! What then!? What if he decided that you were too 'dangerous' to be allowed on his world and wanted to kill you!? What you are doing is unjust and not even remotely right. He isn't like the changelings who have tried to defect into Equestrian life. You gave them a chance, our own enemies a chance! WHAT THE BUCK!?"

Celestia stared at her sister for a few quiet minutes. "Leave me be..."

Luna snorted. "So be it, I shall speak to him myself. I don't think you have the right to decide what happens to him. You aren't even willing to give him a chance...." Luna walked out of the room and before she closed the door she looked once more at her sister. "At least I am willing to give him a chance...Who is the better now? Think about that sister...."

Celestia looked down at her hooves and closed her eyes. She saw flashes of total destruction and planets being wiped from existence. "I have...." Next Chapter: V Estimated time remaining: 21 Minutes
