Author's Notes:

Okay so I just got done with thinking of how I'll end the griffin arc, and all I can tell you guys is that something will happen to Ethan that has never happened to any other displaced character ever.

Now some of you probably won't like it, and all I can say is that you are SOL. This is the way I want my story to go, and I also want it to be somewhat action-packed! Please write down in the comments what you think of the story so far, if I need to improve or lay back a little. If so I'll listen intently to your suggestion. So anyways, hope you enjoy this chapter and as always I'll see you in the next chapter! PEACE!

I woke with a start and a splitting headache. 'Damn what the hell did I do last night?' I thought as I rubbed my head. I sat there thinking for a second before just shrugging and looking to where I was at. I was on the floor, and as I looked around the room I noticed it to be a mess. I was thinking of what Luna and I must have done to cause this, that is until I noticed a splotch of blood on the floor. My head erupted in pain as memories flooded back to me. I saw Luna getting dragged away and bound, and then me getting hit in the back of my head by a griffin I didn't noticed due to my haste. After the pain in my head subsided, I felt so much rage towards the Griffin king. I calmed myself down knowing that it is important for a god to keep their emotions in check. I got up and went for my token chest in the dresser and unlocked it. Over the years I have collected a fair amount of tokens from other displaced people. I looked over all twenty of my tokens and found one that would suite this situation. The token was a pair of silver wings, and it was for the gunvolt. I looked at the token for a little while before pocketing it for later. I went over to my wardrobe and put on a pair of tactical pants on, as well as military steel-toe boots. After that I put on a white shirt and then my warn duster. With that done I picked up my stetson and walked over to the mirror and looked at myself. I put the stetson on and pulled it down a little. I then saw a note on my night stand, so I walked over and read it.

To the monster,

If you don't give yourself up by the time of two days have past well kill your precious princess in the town square of the capital of Gryfonia. If you take your time, like now for instance, we will torture her or worse. I, Steelclaw, will wait for you to give yourselves up to the Griffin Empire .

I looked at the note for a few seconds before stashing it in my pocket. I walked back over to the mirror for one last look. I looked into my eyes and could see something I haven't seen in them in a long time. 'Bloodlust' I thought with a dark chuckle. After that I blinked into the garage and headed to the weapons part that was under the garage. I felt Evo blink behind me and rush to my side. He put a hand on my shoulder and spun me around.

"Dude whats the matter?" he asked in concern. I just grabbed the note and threw it in his face, I was just too pissed to care. I turned back around and headed to the weapons room. After my fifth step I could tell he blinked away to show Celestia. I unpacked my hammer space of everything besides my Marksman carbine and the YCS/186. I also grabbed Evo's All-American, both of his sleppytimes, the riot shotgun, and Christine's CoS silencer rifle. I also put in a set of SPARTAN-IV armor, a few explosive charges and a few grenades. The reason why I have a set of halo armor is because I may be able to fix broken bones and organs in a few seconds, but that doesn't mean i'm impervious to fire. After packing I walked back up into the garage to see Evo, Celestia and the main six.

"What?" I said devoid of emotion causing the six girls to shiver.

"What do you think your doing?" Celestia asked while trying to hold back her anger and tears.

"I'm going to go get my wife back, what does it look like." I said. I looked at everyone and noticed that almost all the main six where eyeing mine and Evo's car collection, and the only one out of them paying attention was Twilight.

"Well I don't think you should do that."

My rage spiked and I'm sure they could tell. "And why is that?" I shouted, getting everyone's attention.

"Because Ethan, the letter said that they would torture her." That was the last straw as she fell to her knees and sobbed.

"Celestia," I started, also getting her looking at me, "Haven't I ever told you is the number one thing you never do to me or Evo? Its that you never mess with us. Anyone who has will feel the wrath of a god come upon them. And look what happened to the last Griffin king how crossed me." I watched as she stood back on her hooves, still sobbing a little.

"I guess your right."

"Wait, what happened to the last Griffin king?" Twilight asked, getting nods from her friends.

I turned away, "The last King that came across my wraith had his head put on a spike in the middle of the Griffin capital." I said. I looked back at the girls to see their faces turn a little green.

"Ethan you can't go alone." Evo said.

"Who ever said I was going alone? I was going to ask you if you wanted to come." I said. "And before any of you girls ask to come, the answer will be no." I said in a stern tone.

"And why can't we huh?" Rainbow dash yelled as she zoomed in front of my face. All I did was draw Shi out , causing her to back away, and look at it.

"Do you know how many lives I have taken with this blade?" I asked and they all shook their heads. "Thousands. I have the blood of thousands on this blade, and their ain't no tellin how many are on my sisters blade here." I said as I patted senbonzakura. That caused her to back down from in front of me. 'She really needs to stop doing that.' I mentally groaned.

"So what are you going to do?" Evo asked trying to change the subject.

"I'm going to see if I can politely ask for Luna back, If not he will face my wraith. And judging on what he has done to her will determine his punishment." I walked past them all and looked at my collection of cars. My jester was sitting in the back, after that is my silver Venom GT F5; next is my fully customized Dodge Challenger SRT; then there is the Conquest Knight XV, I have blown through a ton of walls with that thing and she is a beauty.

"Okay Evo you take the Dodge Challenger, and I'll take the Knight XV. And for you guys," I said gesturing to the girls in the room, "you may want to get ready for anything that may come. This may very well be a trick to get Evo and I away from the capital, so they can attack and at least have a chance to win. So be on your guard." I said as frantic beating could be heard on the garage door. I snapped my hand to open the door. A pegasus guard came in and started talking to Celestia, and as the conversation went on her expression changed to one of shock. After he delivered the news he left, and I shut the door behind him seeing how he just raced of the god knows where. "Celestia whats the matter?" I asked with caution.

"Chrysalis has escaped her confinements in the infirmary and there where they found a squad of dead guards." she said. I could tell she was hiding her anger from everyone. It would have worked if I couldn't feel emotions. And before you ask, I not a changeling. I just had a bad run in with Chrysalis' hive before Nightmare Moon came along.

"Thats strange. Why would the Griffins need the Changeling Queen..." I thought aloud as I stroked my chin. It could have something to do with her other hives, because I know for a fact that she had more than one hive. But then why did she only use one hive during the invasion? I questioned, and a thousand more thoughts were streaming through my head until I heard a cough coming from my right. I turned to see Evo standing there with a agitated expression adoring his face.

"What?" I asked. I looked around and saw that Twilight and her friends had left, so the only ones in the room were Celestia, Evo and myself.

"Are you going to stand there all day or are we going to stage a rescue?" he asked.

"Well first I have to change your car," I said as I snapped my hands, encasing the challenger in a bright flash. When the flash subsided the car looked exactly like Letty's from F&F 7. Now the car has everything that the original had in it, only a few modifications. Evo wasted no time as he rushed to his car and shut the door. 'Oh thank you Ethan for making my car better...' I thought with as grumble. I got into my F5 as he shot past me, and I turned the engine on. I popped my head out the window and looked at Celestia. "You better get ready, and don't worry we'll get her back." I said, then I put my head back inside the car and drove off.

"Evo you read me?" I asked over our com. as we speed down the dirt road through the castle gardens towards Canterlot Cliffs.

"Yea I do, but quick question. Where are we headed?" he asked.

"We're headed for the cliffs, I added a modification to our cars that lets us drive on air."

"How the hell did you do that?"

"I was just messing around with something but it messed up causing the carbon and oxygen in the air to condense together and form a strong bond.Its like driving on the ground but not being on it."

"Well have you tested it?" he asked to which I didn't answer. "You have got to be fucking kidding me!! You haven't tested it!?" he shouted over the com.

"Well we're about to test it out!" I yelled as we jumped into the air and started falling. I heard Evo screaming curses to me as I activate the condenser. It didn't take more than a few seconds before I jerked forward as if we hit the ground. I looked out the window to see that we were suspended in midair. I then looked at Evo and saw him giving me the bird causing me to chuckle.

"I am going to kill you one of these days."

"Sure you will, sure you will" I said. I sat there in silence for a little bit until a plan came to me. "Hey Evo?" I asked

"Yea?"

"I just came up with a plan for a distraction so we can get into the castle."

"So what is it?" he asked. I started to tell him all about my plan and how it will work. After explaining it he nodded and continued driving. We drove in relative quiet for the rest of the trip as we headed to our destination. The Griffin capital. The more I thought about that pig taking my wife the more it made me just want to gut him where he stood. I didnt realize it, but I was driving way faster than Evo and he was yelling at me to slow down. I complied and brought my car next to his. He chewed me out that I shouldn't be thinking that way, and that I should keep my emotions in check. Unless I wanted to lose control over my magic causing me to release it unintentionally. We were driving for about the next few hours, and by now we had made it a long ways away from Equestria. I started to think about how I would bring Luna home, save and sound, but something kept nagging at the back at my head telling me something way bigger was going on.

Evo and I were close enough that we could see the Gryfonian coast from where we were, and it was only getting closer. I radioed over to Evo and told him we were going to go and drive straight towards the capital. Passing over the countryside I could see several griffins looking at our cars as we drove past them in the air. Not an hour later did we reach the capital where my query was at, waiting to be killed.

The Griffin capital was booming this time of year with merchandise coming in from other countries and from the crops coming from the countryside. Everything was peaceful and all the griffins were going around doing there own business such as setting up shops, running errands, playing around, and going about their everyday lives. The main street heading straight to the castle was the busiest due to all the market stands surrounding the street. The peace was interrupted as a a low rumble was heard. As the sound got closer the griffins could see two horseless carriages, one light green and the other a glossy silver, coming down the road at speeds that shouldn't be possible. As the carriages got closer the citizens started to part ways or take flight to get out of the way of the speeding cars. They watched as the carriages zoomed past, going all the way to the entrance of the Castle where there was a ornate fountain there. The two cars circled around, the green one going left and the silver one going right, and stopped as they faced each other. Two platoons of guards surrounded the carriages.

"In the name of the Griffin Empire, you will exit your carriage and submit to the Griffins!!" a well armored griffin yelled. Nothing happened after the griffins outburst. Then the door on the silver carriages left side opened all the way."I want you all to stand here and be on guard of the enemy." he ordered, getting a unison of 'yes sir' in return. As he walked closer, everygriffin in the area was watching him. As soon as the commanding griffin laid a claw on the car, nothing was heard except for a deafening boom. Everyone had to shield their eyes from the bright light as the commander was engulfed in the flames of the explosion.

Else where

"Ha I knew they would fall for it!" Ethan said as he watched the the destruction below. They were on top the tallest castle tower viewing the carnage below them in the town square.

"Yea but did you really have to blow the car up?" Evo asked.

""Well yea, how else were we supposed to make a distraction?"

"Well we could have just killed someone instead of destroying a 1.2 million dollar car to get that done." Evo said with a huff. Ethan turned away from the edge and looked towards the sunset. He stared at it for a few seconds until Evo walked over next to him. "You ready?" he asked.

"Oh I'm ready. I already wanted to kill that asshole as soon as he stepped into the conference room the other day. But with what he as done" Ethan said as his facial expression changed to a more sadistic one, "he'll be wishing that I would have killed him."

"Just promise me you'll keep your emotions in check when we get in there, okay?" Evo said.

"I can't make any promises." Ethan said with a smile before it changed to a serious one. "Now come on we have ass kicking to do."

I watched as Ethan jumped off the tower and try to make a over-the-top entrance as always. 'Sometimes I worry about you Ethan, you were always the one to go on adventures and missions when we were younger. What evils plague you behind those white walls you call eyes?' I thought, truly worried for my brother. I then brought my sword out from my hammer space and attached it to my belt. So with that done I blinked next to Ethan, annnnnd right into a horde of griffins.

"Ffffffuuuuuuck" Ethan said as he slumped over.

"Ya know we could have just snuck in there, and not be seen." I said. Ethan just looked up at me.

"Yea, but where's the fun in that?" he asked rhetorically.

"ALRIGHT YOU GRIFFS, HALF OF YOU TAKE HIM," a very muscular griffin yelled as he pointed to me. "AND THE REST OF YOU GET HIM!" he finished by pointing towards Ethan. All I did was unsheathe my blade a little and then sheathed it again. After a few seconds half of the griffins in the room started to spew blood everywhere and just fell to the floor in pieces of meat. I only smirked. I then looked at the griffin that was in charge and saw that he was shaking in fear. 'That's right mortal, shake beneath my might!!' I then paused. 'Wait, what the hell?! I haven't talked like that in centuries. Oh well.' I thought.

"Hey Ethan," I said, he turned and looked at me, "knock'em dead."

He cracked his knuckles, "With pleasure." he said as he pulled out both of my sleepytimes. I watched him walk forward into the other group of griffins, who just parted away from Ethan as he walked by them. As he was walking, Ethan asked them something,

"Hey guys how's your health plan?" he asked only for the griffins to charge him. "APPARENTLY IT'S GREAT!!" Ethan yelled as he twisted around obliterating the griffins near him. After several more spins almost a fifth of them were dead. Ethan stood there hunched over panting while still pulling the trigger, electing several clicks. 'he needs to hold back.' I thought. Ethan suddenly arched his back while laughing like a madman. I could see all of his teeth had become shark-like in shape, which set me on edge, because the only creature I know or seen, had been vampires from Hellsing. I saw a lone griffin start to charge Ethan as he stopped laughing. When said griffin was a few feet away, Ethan spun around with his jaw wide open, and chomped down on the poor griffins neck causing blood to splatter all on the ground. All the griffins in the hall looked at Ethan in shock and horror, and I rested my hand on the hilt of my blade. I saw him pull back, ripping the flesh that was in his teeth off the griffin. I watched as he swallowed what was in his mouth, nearly making me vomit. After that he threw the griffin corpse towards the wall. I watched it as it slowly slid to the floor.

"Aww it's been awhile since I was like this." he said as he wiped his mouth, which was dripping blood. "Alright who's next?" he asked with a predatory grin. Everyone in the hall stood stock still, not daring to make a move. "What, none of you gonna do it?" Ethan asked with a raised eyebrow. "Fine you bunch of CHICKENS!!" he said, yelling the last part causing the remaining griffins to became enraged. So with that, I saw them charge him. When they were close enough to Ethan he jumped into the air and flipped upside-down. He stopped mid-air, and do a squat, then fall back down with impressive speed . When he connected back with the ground, he created a shockwave that sent his opponents flying away from him. I looked at where he landed and saw that the stone floor in ruins and that Ethan was cover in blood that was on the floor.

"If you what to live, stay. down." he said in a low and cold tone. I waited a few second s to see if any of them would get up, so when none of them didn't I figured that they were unconscious from the impact. I walked over to Ethan with caution and my hand still on my sword.

"Ethan?" I asked. He turned around to face me and smiled. I could see that his teeth were back to normal.

"Hey dude! Enjoy the show?" he asked with a goofy grin.

"It was interesting, to say the least. Now that they are out of the way, lets get on with the mission."

"Right." he said, changing into a more serious tone.

We walked in relative silence as we ventured down the hall, Ethan kept on sweeping his guns when we passed a junction in the hallways. 'Man this is one long ass hallway...' I thought. I walked behind Ethan scanning the area while covering his back. After a little while we came upon two large wooden doors that were highly decorated. "Ok here we are. You ready?" I asked as I tilted my head to him. His face full of determination and I could see a pit of burning wraith just underneath the shell.

"Let's get this over with." he said.

"Before we go in, do you want to go in silent or loud?" i asked. Now I usually don't do that, but I think Ethan, no Wade, is becoming highly emotionally unstable.

"Just kick that door as hard as you can." he said with agitation while gesturing to the left door. 'He's letting his anger out slowly... that's good' I thought hoping nothing bad would happen. So I walked in front of the left door while Ethan went in front of the right. We nodded before we kicked the doors in. Of course with my strength, kicked the door with a little of my power; while I could feel Ethan use his magic to give him a little edge. When our feet connected with the doors they flew a few feet before falling to the floor with a massive thud. Ethan and I slowly lowered our legs as I took in my surroundings. The room we walked into was quite large, almost as large as Canterlot's throne room. Several pillars aliened the walls, going all the way from the entrance to the throne. As I looked at the throne, I saw Steelclaw shaking hands... err... claws?, whatever, with something that resembled an equine in someway. As they finished shaking they turned and faced us. Steelclaw had a unnerving smile edged on his face. I looked over to Ethan and saw he was trembling and had a look of shock and disbelief adoring his face.

"Otoko wa, nani ga machigatte iru nodesu ka(Dude, what is wrong)?" I asked in Japanese, trying to keep this conversation private.

"Watahitachina equestria no aki ni iru to omoimasu(I think we are in a fall of equestria)." he responded. I looked back at the Griffin King to see he had a confused look on his face.

"Nani (What)?"

"Equestria ga karibū ni teika shi, josei wa seidorei aru bashodesu (It is where equestria falls to the caribou and the females are sex slaves)."

"Mā wareware wa ima sore o suru koto ga dekimasu koto wa dekimasen (Well we can't have that now can we)?" I asked "Soshite, watashi wa kakushin shite jigoku no yō ni, soreha tatakai nashi de okoru yō ni suru tsumori wa arimasen! Anata ga taisetsu ni nani o hogo suru tame ni anata wa junbi ga dekite (And I sure as hell not going to let it happen without a fight! You ready to protect what you hold dear)?"

"lya, anata (Yea, you)?"

"Watashi ga ima made ni narudarou to onaji kurai junbi (As ready as i'll ever be)." I responded.

"Well if you two abominations are done talking gibberish, I would like to introduce you to my new business partner." Steelclaw said as he waved a claw in the equine next to him.

"Greetings creatures," he said with a slight bow. When he looked back up at us with a grimace. "I am King Dainn, king of the Caribou and I hope that you will submit beforehand so you don't have to face the full might of the CARIBOU!!"

'Oh god not one of those guys!!' I thought with an inward groan.
