The Witcher 3 -DLC: The Witcher of Equestria
Chapter 10: Show proof
Previous Chapter Next ChapterThe sound of everyone arguing over who slayed the dragon annoyed Geralt greatly. His left eye began to twitch again, and he knew what he had to do.
"SHUT UP!!!" he yelled. Everyone stopped arguing and turned to Geralt. The Witcher's face was red in anger as he breathed hard through his nostrils, calming himself down. "Okay... this has gone far enough. Show me proof."
"...Proof?" the earth pony asked.
"Did I stutter?" The three ponies that said they slayed the dragon looked at each other in fear, but they pulled out their weapons. Geralt inspected the Pegasus', unicorn's, and Earth Pony's weapons. "This sword was recently bought; I see a tag on it. Your axe is filthy & unclean; if you were to use this in a fight, then it'd break upon impact, especially on dragon scales. And you... this is made out of wood. This is not going to work at all."
"Oh yeah!" The pegasus spoke "Show us your proof!"
"Gladly." Geralt pulled out his silver sword. Though he was one to make sure his weapons were fixed and clean for the next battle, the sword was undoubtedly covered in the dragon's blood. Something else on his sword, that he didn't notice, but was glad is on, was a single scale from the dragon. The crowd gasped at the sight and murmured to each other. "That's right; I fought the dragon and survived. You all talked about slaying it, but none of you have the looks to do such a thing."
"...How... how did you slay it?" The unicorn asked.
"I didn't." Another gasp from the crowd. "It was under control by something. I had all the rights to slay it, perhaps parade it's heart like a trophy, but I didn't. I allowed it to live another day."
"But... why!?"
"Why? I use my swords to only slay monsters, both feral and among you, for I am Geralt of Rivia, the Witcher." The crowd stared silently.
"...HEY! I HAVE A PROBLEM!!!" A stallion yelled in the crowd.
"Me too!" A mare added "I'll pay you for it!" The crowd busted into a large argument over who wants Geralt. Though Geralt was willing to take money, this... this was something else. He took a few steps back, actually feeling nervous, despite not showing it. A lone mare turned to him.
"Hey! Get back here!"
"Shit!" Geralt yelled. He turned and ran; the crowd followed.
Geralt ran from the crowd, all yelling for his service! Roach stood next to Big Mac, but gave him the seductive eyes.
"So," she spoke "Wanna make some foals?"
"...NOPE!!!" Big Mac yelled, running despite being injured. Roach ran after him.
"Come on! Show me why you're called 'Big Mac'!"
Geralt ran from the crowd as fast as his hooves could carry him. The crowd, however, was much faster, especially the pegasus that flew to him. Geralt had no choice but to run through the houses; breaking through a window or through the front door to the backdoor helped the crowd stopped & ran around, but some guards saw Geralt performed these actions.
"STOP RIGHT THERE!!!" The guards shouted.
"MY HOUSE!!!" The owners yelled.
"SHIT!!!" Geralt yelled to himself, chased by the added guards and homeowners. As he ran, however, he passed by the six mares from the Ponyville, along with Applebloom and a white unicorn with a poofy, pink & purple mane and an orange pegasus with a purple mane.
"...Was that Geralt?" Twilight asked. The crowd ran past her.
"What did he do to get such attention?" Rarity asked "That's what I want!"
"I don't think it ain't that, Rarity." Applejack commented.
"Ooh! Wait for me, Geralt!" Pinkie yelled, running after the crowd and to the Witcher.
"Here we go again." Rainbow Dash commented. "Let's make sure nothing goes wrong up ahead, Fluttershy."
"Oh, okay," the shy pegasus replied "I just hope nothing bad happens to him." The two pegasi flapped their wings and went ahead.
"Hey! Wait for me!" Twilight added, flapping her wings and following the two.
"And you three," Applejack spoke affirmatively "ya'll stay with us and-"
"CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS MONSTER HUNTER TRAINEES!!!" The three fillies yelled, quickly running into a sprint into the large crowd.
"Sweetie Belle! Get over here!!!" Rarity growled
"Goshdarnit, Applebloom!" Applejack added "Ya'll are in mighty big trouble!" The two jumped into the crowd, chasing after their sisters and one friend.
Geralt was beginning to tire from running; though it was true that, as a Witcher, he was better in almost every single way, but he was still human. He felt like passing out, up until the pink demon came back, running backwards without breaking a sweat.
"Hiya, Gary, ol' buddy, ol' pal! Is this a race you're having with Canterlot? Oh! Is this a marathon!? I love marathons! I love 'em because I run, and I love running! Do you love running? It's really great, especially when you're-"
"AHH!!!" Geralt screamed, getting the extra boost he need to run!
"Wait! Look out!!!"
"Never!!!"
"You're gonna crash into-"
"I don't give a-!!!" He crashed into Roach, who was just inches away from poncing and locking onto Big Mac's back. Both Geralt and his steed rolled on the floor and crashed hard against the side of a building. Geralt saw the world was dizzying in his eyes, but he shook it off... and instantly regretted it. With a loud scratch and crash from something that he never heard of, everypony running to him crashed into the Witcher and his steed. Through the pile of ponies over him, Geralt's head popped out of the crowd, but, with so much damage to his head and body, he was hallucinating. The Cutie Mark crusaders, their sisters & their friends, and Big Mac were the only ones to not get into the large pile that may have contained at least a good quarter of Canterlot's population. Applebloom hopped onto the other ponies' heads' and pointed to Geralt.
"This is Gery, the stallion that saved mah life from them Timberwolves!"
"But he ain't gonna save ya'll from yer punishment back home!" Through Geralt's eyes, everything was blurry and out of control, but he saw the sillhouetes of his allies back home, including Ciri.
"Hey~... guys!" He spoke like a drunk. "I just had... the stranges dream... where I landed in a place~... filled with... talking... horses."
"...Is he alright?" Sweetie Belle asked
"Has he been drinking Cider?" Scootaloo added, tilting her head.
"Oh~! Yes, Ciri... I lo~ve you~... as a daughter." Geralt continued to ramble. "Hey! Where's the nearest whorehouse!?" Pinkie's tail twitched. A potted plant fell from the sky and knocked Geralt out. The group looked up to see the local wonky eyed pegasus above.
"Oh, I'm so sorry for that!" she exclaimed "Of all the exciting things that happened, that was the craziest thing around here! None of you are hurt, are you?"
"We're alright," Twilight answered "ad I think we should thank you. Go back to Ponyville, I'll cover that plant you dropped."
"Oh! Thank you, your highness!" She flew away.
"I guess we better get Geralt out before he wakes up."
Geralt found himself in a field, back as his human self.
"Geralt?" he voice of Ciri spoke. Geralt turned around and saw only the back of Ciri.
"Ciri!" Geralt exclaimed happily. He ran to her as cheerful music he never heard of played behind him. The flowers bloomed around him, the sun seemed to have a baby's face on it, and Ciri, though just her back, looked just as beautiful as ever! He approached to her back and turned her around... only to be meet with Roach's face back home.
"Let's have foals!" Roach spoke in Ciri's voice.
"AHH!!!" Geralt screamed again as he woke up. He sweated very hard as he hyperventilated from that nightmare. He looked around, seeing that he was in a more traditional hospital room (at least, to his taste). He was on a soft bed, covered by a blanket, and he was, though loosely, naked. His armor and swords hung to his right, and on his left was a candlelight with a bowl of water & rag. He looked at himself, seeing that he was still a unicorn, and looked around, seeing other ponies were on their bed as well, some with worse injuries than him. A white earth pony mare with a pink-bun mane, and with a mark of a red cross on her flank, came to Geralt's side.
"I heard you scream, Geralt," she spoke "I didn't think you'd be us so quick... and healed as fast as well." Geralt groaned as he felt a migraine.
"Ugh... what happened?"
"You had a terrible accident outside. Oh ponies outside, always chasing something until they hit their heads on something, am I right?"
"How did I get here?"
"Ah! Your friend, Princess Twilight Sparkle and her friends brought you here. They wanted you to be well as soon as possible, though, Princess Celestia would like to see you."
"Princess Celestia? The ruler of this this country?"
"The one and only!"
"... Can I avoid her?"
"Certainly, though I wouldn't recommend it; you're still injured, and I'm certain that your 'fans' are still outside."
Wait until Night.
