why did i land here?
Chapter 23: another day, another battle
Previous Chapter Next ChapterWith the pop I had gotten used to we arrived at a little beach, the all to familiar massive ships that adorned the sea out ahead of us ready to launch smaller ships, this time without delay we put on the elements of harmony, glowing as we changed to our elemental forms, as we stood there, lined up and ready for a fight, it dawned upon me that it would probably be smart to attack the big ships before they launched the smaller boats, and without a second opinion about it I took off.
In all honesty it probably would have been a good idea to atleast let the others know what I was doing, but it hadn't dawned on me at the time to do so.
As I flew closer to the massive ships I realized that this wasn't going to be easy, but I went against good judgement and started firing hundreds of lightning bolts at the ship, melting its outer metal frame and exposing its interior to attack, but before I could make a decisive blow I was pelted by rocks and boulders by the now vulnerable ships passengers, soon the barrage slowed and I made a large plasma ball, throwing it directly at the exposed part of the ships insides, and was rewarded with seeing water rush in, the ship already leaning to one side, and I headed back.
As I approached the land I could see the other elements looking wide eyed at me, but what I instantly saw was celestia was steaming mad, anger in her eyes, as I approached closer I felt her magic wrap around me, sneezing me tighter and tighter as I plummeted towards the ground, and I must admit I was scared to death of her for a while, but before I hit the ground she slingshoted me into a nearby forest, as I tumbled and smashed everything I encountered only two things were on my mind, 1: what the fuck, 2:,seriously?.
I was finally stopped by a absolutely gigantic tree, but soon found out my horn had lodged deep inside of it and I was hanging by my neck, unable to move. When celestia approached me every step she took caused a burnt mark to form where she stepped, her eyes shining with anger, but for all I wanted to get away I was still stuck in the tree by my horn, when she came even closer to me I fought my woody prison with all I had, but all I did was futile. "I told you the next time you did something stupid was going to be your death, did you not beleive me?" Said celestia, causing me to fight even more when I felt her magic wrap around mexonce again, pulling me towards the ground, but my horn was still stuck and as she pulled it just stretched my neck, until I heard a crack and the world went dark.
I had a dream, Luna once again came to me and said that although I may be a element she would one day kill me, and once again she would rise to power, " wait, this means I'm not dead, didn't celestia break my neck?" I ask Luna, who had looked at me funny when I asked this, Luna pulls a little ball made of diamond from nowhere and tells me to look inside, I do as told, and I could see myself.
I was laying in my bed at the elemental castle, dashie was next to my twisted body crying, which brought tears to my dream eyes, but the picture soon changed, showing celestia in a place I didn't recognize, crying over me asking herself why she had lost it, why had she killed me.
I look away from the scene, brought to tears by Celestias pitying herself for killing me, and with this Luna vanished into dream air, and I was once again alone.
It seems like I had been walking in the dreamland for quite sometime, just pondering what I had seen, sometimes just reliving the good parts of my stay in equestria, but one time as I was just walking along I felt a pull, like a magnet was pulling me, and I feel into a darkness that led me to the real world.
I felt a good solid thunk as I slipped back to consciousness, feeling my bruised and battered body once again, and without thinking about it I instantly sat up, heard a scream, then passed out from the pain.
The second time I slipped into consciousness I felt myself being poked, making me relive waking up in equestria the first time, but about half way through the memory I heard voices, " what do you mean he started up?" " he did, I swear that he sat up and fell back " "probably just rigamortis, he's not alive after all he has no vital signs of any kind, even his reactor is shut down."
I think about it for a minute and decide to open my eyes, and I was greeted by several screams as twilight and rainbow dash see me.
I slowly start to move, trying not to make myself pass out again now that I was awake, " that's not possible..." Said twilight, who was huddled in a corner as far away from me as she could be, and as I sat up slowly I got a different reaction out of dashie, "Tesla!" Yells dashie as she comes and hugs me, " I thought you were dead, oh you scared us bad, don't ever do that again or else!" Says dashie into my ear, " wow, not even awake a minute and already getting threats," I say, although I was happy to be awake.
I soon found out that I had a broken wing, a fractured hip and a shattered bone that was equivalent to a c7 vertabra in a human neck, although mine was much larger.
Within a couple hours of waking up I was up and walking, against twilights will, as she said that even a small jolt at this point could leave me in a coma for several days at best, weeks at the worst, but there was no way in hell I was going to stay in that bed any longer, and besides I really had to use the bathroom.
Twilight had gone to retrieve celestia and I was in the main room of the castle with rainbow dash when I remembered something, " uh dashie, how did the battle go?"I ask, rainbow looks over at me and says "well, after celestia snapped your neck your reactor turned on, and well, there's a gigantic gaping crater there right now." This puzzles me because in all honesty I didn't really even know how they got me back to the castle, but I suppressed these questions and went back to examining my leg where it was fractured and looking over all my bruises I got while tumbling through the forest.
I was somewhat scared when celestia walked in, not quite sure if she was still mad at me or not,
But it seemed as if she didn't really beleive I was there, like she thought I couldn't be even alive after having my body flung through forest and my neck snapped, and trust me it was awkward to be there with someone who had almost killed me, even if it was in a fit of rage, but I started talking first, " I really have told you what I was going to do, I'm sorry about all of this.", " no, it was my fault, after all it did help us quite a bit with future battles, I shouldn't have gotten mad, all you did was try to help." With this we both kinda left the room and went our own ways, I was headed back to my room because I had just remembered to check my mini computer and see if it had gotten a reading yet, but it still had no idea where I was so I laid down and fell asleep.
