A Winter's Rose

Chapter 58: Chapter 58. Just an average December.

Previous Chapter Next Chapter

The snow was cold against my bare hooves as I walked around the castle grounds with the moon to my back. The only thing keeping me warm from the fridge mountain air was a beautiful jacket that was lined with black, wolf fur. My hood was down and flowing whimsically to the cold breeze, making the fuzzy rim of the hood tickled my neck slightly whenever the wind picked up. The gothic castle looked like it was made out of; silver stars that shined in the pale moonlight. Whenever I looked back to the mountainside castle, I could see the odd silhouette from within a glowing window of the castle.

As I walked around the barren garden that only had two colors present (white and brown), instead of the thousands from a few months prior, I had to wonder if my choices leading up to the conference were the right ones.

With Twilight Sparkle and her friends living in Arcadia now, I knew that Celestia would go absolutely insane once she learns that the Elements of Harmony chose my side over hers. Sure Twilight was a bitch to convince to move with her friends after she walked out of the hospital with her head slumped in defeat, but with the help of Spike—Who grew to a staggering six-foot-eight when I last saw him—Made her see the light and moved with his friends to Fairytale.

It was quite impressive to see the baby drake who was no taller than me a few months ago grow so fast, then again, he should have been that tall to begin with since he hatched thirteen years ago. One would think that he hasn't been eating meat like he should have, but I bet Celestia told him that dragons don't eat meat in the first place. Which was another lie, as dragons eat as much meat as they do gems. If that was the case, then Celestia is an asshole to dragons. Though, he was as sexy as Razor if the hundreds of dragonesses fainting were any indication just at the sight of him.

It was also good to know that he was joining the Dragon Guard. He was going to be well received in the Dragon Guard once he finishes his training. Twilight should be proud of her little brother finally growing up. Alas, with the Elements of Harmony and their families settling in their new home, I still had to deal with the Nobility that Luna created.

‘Man, they were pissed when I had them arrested and thrown in jail for not paying their taxes. That problem was so easy to fix, I don't think that Luna realizes how easy it was to get rid of them,’ I thought with a smile as I stopped in front of a statue of me.

Of course, Luna did take notice that I no longer had a Nobility cabinet and questioned me about it. At first, she was quite mad at me for undoing her work, but when I told her that a Nobility status would cause more problems in the long term with family lines and entitlement, she shut up and hung her head in shame for her failure. I sent her to her room for being a bad girl and she did so without question.

I shivered in place as the wind picked up again, telling me that it was time to go back inside for the night, but I didn't want to. After I told the entire world of the truth of everything starting from the “Teresa Incident,” to the “Dragon Upheaval,” the world went mad with rage towards Celestia and Queen Cadence. Never have I seen every country in the world point their guns at one individual so fast, it was almost like Hitler himself jumped out of his grave for WWIII!

I didn't think that every country that was struggling to keep their economies in check from the sudden population drop would do such a thing. Then again, if they were on my side, they wouldn't be hit as hard if war were to break out. In the long run, joining up with me would probably stabilize their wealth, and help out with their industry, even though they all are trying to get a foothold in my economy.

Even though I planned the entire event with nothing but the facts, no one gave me shit. Instead, I was seen as a paragon of light in this dark world. My zealots made sure that I was still their Goddess, which was good. They all kissed my hooves while I sat on my throne, and I got a free show of a dragon and a Khajiit going at it in front of me, which was way sexier than my porn collection on my computer that I got from Japanpony.

'Inventing the internet was my greatest achievement so far. Thank you Japapony for making the computer!'

My civilians gave me more praise than normal. The streets were bathed in confetti as I drove in my royal carriage down the main street back to the castle. Mare's cried, Stallions cheered, foals danced, and Dragons bowed. I even saw my friends looking at me with awe in their eyes as I drove past the Academy, making the day even sweeter.

The next day, I met with Queen Ember of the dragons. When I saw her walk up to my as I sat on my throne with her honor guard, my first thought was an attempt on my life, but, thankfully it was far worse. She bowed down to me and offered her red scepter that King Sauron would use. This gesture confused me at first, but with all the gasps from every dragon in the room. It told me that it was important.

Then, without warning, she began begging me to take the throne of the Dragons, and keep them safe. This motion caused every dragon in the room to roar with approval and bow to me as I flew down from the throne to try to get her to keep her place, but once I saw her pleading eyes as I stood in front of her, I made the ungodly decision to accept her offer.

Once I had the scepter in my hooves, I was wrapped in a red glow for a second. It was strange, and primal, like my old cravings for meat coming back. It was addictive from how much power I held within my hooves. I instantly knew that I could order a dragon to kill himself, and he would do so lovingly to show his loyalty. The amount of power that was passed on to me almost overwhelmed my will, but once I came to my senses, it felt like I was being protected in a suit of armor made out of a million fires. No one complained about the fact that I became the Empress of the Dragons, not even Embers guards. After we had a quick chat about her reasons for her to give up her crown, I understood why she would do it.

If I was the leader of one of the most feared races on the planet and was given a choice to either, run and hide or fight and die. I would also give that responsibility who could save more lives, but I don't like the fact that she threw me under the bus to go flock off with Spike. Then again, I still can't get over the fact that Spike had such a deep and soothing voice. The second after Ember left the castle bridal style in Spikes' arms, King Gwyndolin and Queen Gilda showed up.

The two Griffin leaders of the recently revived Griffin Dominion came as quickly as they left. We had a quick bite and talked about a mutual treaty between our two countries with Princess Luna as the mediator. When we all came to an agreement and signed the treaty. They left to prepare for a war that looms over our heads. And preventing me from getting a read on them and why they would jump on my clit as fast as they did.

A question for another day.

I let out a sigh of annoyance as I walked back into my warm castle and made my way to my room, knowing that I still had to deal with the prisoners and how they should be executed for their treason. Many thoughts of how they should be killed filled my mind as I walked through the ivory halls to my room. Many of them were dark and unseasonably painful. From wanting to stuff them into a bronze bull over a fire to putting them into a Jigsaw puzzle game filled my mind. Both were gruesome and messy, but since it was a public execution, those ideas were out of the question. Then, as I gave a nod to my Angel bodyguard as we walked passed each other in the hall near Spitfires room, a perfect idea crossed my mind.

‘All of them can carry a giant cross to the Equestrian borders and die via Crucifixion as a warning sign to any and all ponies who dare betray Arcadia. And with Celestia freaking out from Luna's suggestion to call Gwynevere, Azrael instead of Zuriel. It will solidify the fact that I had an Angel on my side,’ I thought with a dark smile, causing a nearby maid in a slutty Santa outfit to back away with a nervous smile.

I continued to walk to my room with the thought of watching Green Eco suffer for betraying me in the way that he did with a dark smile of anticipation for tomorrow's events.

"Sup kiddo," Spitfire said as I lazily sat on a chair in my room, strumming away at my guitar as Summer slept on my bed. I looked up to the mare in orange wearing a Playpony bunny outfit with her mane tied in a hot ponytail. I raised a brow at the clothes she was wearing at ten o'clock in the evening before I looked back down and continued to strum away a gentle tune.

"Oh come on, don't be like that. I just had a photo shoot, I swear!" she proclaimed. I just looked up at her again and put my hoof over my mouth then pointed to my bed before I went back to playing my song. "Oh, sorry," Spitfire said sheepishly.

I continued to play my song for a while as Spitfire took off her outfit with a bit of a struggle. I couldn't help but smile as she looked like she was trying to murder her leggings as she couldn't get a good grip with her hooves. When she fell over right beside me, I had to hold back my laughter as I didn't want to wake the sleeping filly in my bed from her peaceful slumber. Summer has been worried sick about me and wouldn't stop freaking out about every little thing regarding my left wing.

It was sweet of her to care about me as much as she did, but at certain times, it got annoying, especially after I had to visit Umbra about tuning my wings so that I could fly without a problem. I didn't blame my chick with a dick for kicking Summer out of the room. She was getting in the way with her constant chirping and touch about how my wing was supposed to act. She even almost fucked everything up when she pulled on one of my primaries the wrong way. It hurt to see her bawling about that afterward. I love her down to the soul, but sometimes I just want to leave her in the middle of a desert and not come back.

I chuckled as I felt Summers slight irritation at me for thinking about leaving her in the middle of nowhere and put my guitar down for the night. I turned to Spitfire, who was laying down beside me with a smile on her face. I raised a brow again to her, wondering why she was here in the first place.

Ever since I left the hospital, she has been starting to scare me with how much she was guarding me against everything. One of my best guards, Hard Stuff—Who wasn't one of the red shirts of my Black Knights, was sent to the hospital for lifting a hoof to salute me as I walked passed him with Spitfire. The poor stallion was grabbed and thrown through a wall of one-foot concrete. Thankfully, he was going to make a full recovery, but they way that Spitfire was growling like a fox at him, was terrifying.

When I fell asleep that night, I asked Luna as to why she was acting like a territorial wolf around me. What she said was both concerning, and comforting.

I knew that the old Wonderbolts was a section of Celestia's Black Ops, but what I didn't know was what came with that terrible honor. It also explains why I can eat red meat again, why I now have little fangs, and why I can see perfectly in the dark. Spitfire went through an augmentation that gives her; night vision, a better sense of smell, and the ability to eat meat like an omnivore, but the scariest thing about this change was the Blood Rage enhancement.

Spitfire has absolute control of her Blood Rage and can activate it at will. The unique thing about this was that a normal, Blood Rage increased, strength, reaction time, and speed by a factor of three. Her Blood Rage, however, increases those three by a factor of seven. What's worse was that if she drank the blood of her victims, she can lengthen the time the Rage is activated, and she can't die or even be hindered once it does finally end.

The interesting thing about her fangs, though, was what they could do other than tear through, meat. She could inject a paralysis venom that is ten times stronger than Restoril and lasts just as long. The other thing that she could do was inject her emotions into someone, which was mentioned in length in the Thestrous Sutra. She could, in theory, cause anyone to orgasm with a single bite or kill them. If that's not horrifying, I don't know what is, but, at least, I know that I have all of her abilities. I just wished I knew that she was the one that donated her blood to me beforehand. Having, 'new magical powers via blood transfusion,' would have been good to know.

"You need something?" I asked as I put the naughty thoughts of biting Summers' neck aside for later. Spitfires' ears perked up, and she gave me a big smile.

"Yeah, I want to know why you told Rainbow Dash about Firefly?"

'Shit,' I thought as I looked over to the door, calculating how fast I could close the distance between a horse whip and freedom.

"What do you mean?" I replied nervously as I looked around the room and making plans to tie the bastard by the nips' for ratting me out.

"You know what I mean," she said with a frown. "I know that you told Rainbow in the hospital to get her off of your back."

I gulped as I felt Summers nervousness growing in the distance. "Oh, that. Uh...Sorry," I sighed and hung my head in wait for the spanking of a lifetime.

Instead, I heard Spitfire sigh with relief and felt her place a wing over my shoulder. I looked back up to see that she was smiling again just in time to be pulled into a small hug for a quick second before she spoke again in a softer tone.

"It's okay, Pup. I can understand why you did it, but I am still a little mad that you did it. If it wasn't for the fact that both Rainbow and Firefly moved out of Equestria, I would have beaten your ass the second I saw you," she said, causing me to flinch in response. "However, now that they are safe and together again like a family," she paused and left a sweet kiss on my cheek. "Thank you."

My eyes went wide with shock for a moment after I heard those words. She wasn't going to destroy me, disown me or anything. She just said words that I didn't think I would ever hear her say. All I could do was look up at her cheeky smirk and half laden eyes as she pulled me into a hug again before she said goodnight, and left the room leaving me alone with Summer in a confusion that I did the right thing and wasn't going to die for it. I shook my head and put the thought aside and turned off the lights.

With a quick flap of the wings, and with my ever present night vision, I landed on my bed beside the sleeping Summer. With a smile to the sleeping mare, I cuddle up with her underneath the blankets and gently kissed her neck before I let out a soft sigh, and fell asleep.
