why did i land here?
Chapter 12: my elemental power comes into veiw
Previous Chapter Next ChapterAs we flew as fast as we reasonably could to the palace it hit me what the thing on my chest was, and with a start I realized that it was a nuclear reactor, and was stuck in me. The palace soon came into view and we met no resistance as we ran into the thrown room, asking to see the queen, and after waiting about 3 minutes we was allowed to join the queen in the chamber were I had been made a element, my ring on the ground still glowing, and we saw the queen on the pedastal that I had been stabbed in the neck on, deep in thought, so deep that we scared her when twilight started talking, the queen jumping into the air and apon landing she took a more dignified posture, like a cat after doing a uncat like thing, and said that she knew what we here for, I had received my elemental gift from the last element of destruction, and didn't know what it was, " I know that its a nuclear reactor, but I don't know what in the hell i t was doing on my chest" I said, and the moment I said it I realized that I had just sworn in the queens presence, and slowly sulked to myself, celestia took no notice of my lack of control of my tongue and looked at me, " that is correct, and it is on your chest because it is part of your elemental powers, the other elements don't need one because you have more power, as you have to balance out all of the good energy from the six of them, and that is no easy task" she said, paying no attention to twilight who was examining my ring on the ground, the queen started talking again, " I knew because your elemental stand started glowing a brilliant blue, and we should probably get that activated soon as it took out part of your heart when it went in." " it took part of my heart out?" I ask, but without giving me a answer the queen tells me to stand on my ring, and the moment I do so my symbol appears over me again, glowing brighter than ever before, and Celestias grabbed twilight by the neck with her magic and pulled her away from me before the both started to back up away from me and the circle, when the reactor in my chest began to glow brightly.
There was a sudden rush of pain followed by a feeling of energy in my body, as if I had drunk a whole pot of coffee in one gulp, when the light began to dim.
When the light from the ring that had encircled me had vanished Celestias came up and inspected the device, probably making sure it had activated properly, but I didn't really care as I was in a land of dreams from all the power which was coursing through my veins, but Celestias brought me back to reality with a clap of her hooves, and she took me to another room which led from the throne room, and was sat down and talked.
She told me in detail the history of the elements, from being forged in the fires of hatred up to me and the other elements, and when she got to this part she looked me in the eyes and said, " I know that you weren't born equestrian, but I do know that you have made friends and attachments here, and if you fight to protect it with all your might, we might have a chance to win this war thats about to start, you are the key, the only one who can bear this responsibility, and I know that it will be hard, but I have seen your soul, you have locked yourself from pain and anger, and I know for a fact that you can look danger in the eye and drive it back, twilight sent me a letter about what had happened between you and pinkamena, and I am shocked about how you are still alive, but will you answer this for me, how does it feel to not have any flesh on your bones, to be a walking skeleton?" I tell Celestias that it feels like nothing, a literal nothing as you don't have nerves anymore, and no brain to say what you're feeling, but it at the same time is as if your still in your body, as your bones are still there suspended mid air, but all in all you don't feel it. Celestias tells me that I shouldn't have scared pinkamena like that even if she tried to kill me, as she was probably scarred for life and will always show some fear towards me, and with this she let's us leave.
On the way to ponyville we were completely silent, until we heard the bugle like sound, and we sped even faster to ponyville an I could tell that something was happening at sugarcube corner, by the crowd inside. Next Chapter: prepare for war Estimated time remaining: 5 Hours, 3 Minutes
