Shit… How can I start? Aha!

Hey! I’m Talon Stryke, but you can call me Fairy. I’m a pony-griffoness hybrid – Yeah, boy name. Why do you think I like my nickname more? –, even if I’m not a hippogriff. And this story is my life after I moved from my home country to Equestria.

Nailed it.

It starts with me and my sister walking through Pyria, a border city on Hybrios, the Hybrid Lands. The country has almost every sentient species living here as well a lot of hybrids, hence the name. We worked for the local guard, and we were going home after a mission that went more or less well.

“Please, tell me again. Why the fuck did you drink that blood?!” I roared. I was covered in blood, my clothes were completely destroyed and I was beyond pissed. It was taking all my self-control not to kill the bitch at my side.

“I said I’m sorry!” Scarlett answered, holding her hands up defensively.

I'm a wingless griffoness with white feathers and pale pink fur, eyes with different colors – left is black, right is glowing pink – and bright pink hair that goes past my shoulder line. I was wearing my normal clothes: a pink shirt – that honestly looks more like a bikini top than a shirt –, grey jeans and a black jacket. A chain was attached to the front of my shirt and goes around me, holding six throwing knives – aka. Kunais, but that makes me sound like I’m an anime character – called Soul Chasers. Yeah, we name our weapons, is kind of a joke that turned tradition or something. My attire was torn and burnt in some places; I didn't know how it hadn’t fallen yet.

Scarlett is basically my twin sister, with blood red fur instead of pink like me, a punk-styled crimson hair, eyes on the same color. Her clothes were a black jeans – jeans are standard on our family, y’know? Almost every one of them uses one –, a small red tank-top under a black short-sleeved jacket, buttoned up on the middle only so it would show the shirt and her belly. She had two daggers attached to her belt that were just a bit longer than my knives, called Vampire Fangs. Guess why. She was on the same state I am, not that the asshole minded it.

“I’ll get your Fangs, shove them up your ass and send the strongest arcane pulse I can manage.” I growled. I’m an Arcane-wielder, meaning I can use Arcane magic.

“I’m a vampire, dammit! I needed to drink that, or I would be hungry until now!” Scarlett grumbled. She’s a Blood-wielder; she can control her own blood and the blood that’s spilled on the battle ground. She always carries some pearls that are made of condensed blood, somehow, and she can liquidify it to use in battle and solidify it again to make thorns, and shit like that.

My left eye started to twitch.

‘Calm yourself, Fairy; you can kill her when we’re at home.’ I thought before I could strangle the red-eyed griffoness. “Then… why the fuck didn’t you drank the blood from one of the monsters we killed, or from your bloodstone pearls?”

She opened her mouth for a moment, and then closed it and facepalmed. “Bloody hell, I’m an idiot…”

“Really now? Didn’t notice.” I growled again.

We stopped at a door and knocked three times. After a while a thestral opened the door; she had a gray coat, midnight blue hair and eyes, and was wearing an indigo long-sleeved shirt and black jeans.

“About ti- Holy shit! What happened?” The thestral asked with worry.

“Calm down, Moonlight, we’re alive. I’ll explain inside. What time is it?” I asked her.

“Half past midnight.” She answered, stepping aside so we could enter.

“Thanks.”

The three of us walked through a corridor and stepped inside the dining room, where the others were waiting for us.

A pegasus saw us and whistled. “Wow, looks like you went through hell and returned.” Aguion said worried, the other twelve noticed us and went wide-eyed. Aguion is my older brother, a golden yellow pegasus with a messy black mane and yellow eyes, wearing a pale yellow sleeveless shirt and black jeans.

“You could say that, brother. The damn target had to be a Necromancer, didn’t he?” I muttered. “The imbecile thought it was a good idea to summon a fucking. Magma. Demon Lord!” I shouted in anger. ”The demon killed the guy right after the summon ritual. It was a bitch to kill, but nothing we couldn’t handle. But, since everything can get worse, this idiot drank blood from one of the grails used on the ritual, and ended up triggering a trap or something.” I said pointing at Scarlett. She gave us a sheepish grin while half of the room facepalmed. “Some Magma Warriors appeared. If it was three or four, it wouldn’t be a problem. But 23?! That’s bullshit!” I yelled. Yup, there’s a reason why my brother calls me Ire sometimes. I was trying very hard not to punch Scarlett until she stopped moving.

“Ouch… Well, at least you two didn’t die. And that’s good, because we have news.” Said Lightning, my older sister and Aguion’s twin. She uses the same kind of clothes as Aguion, but her eyes and shirt are a dark shade of pink.

“Really? What is it?” Scarlett and I asked at the same time.

“We’re moving from Hybrios!” We looked at the blue seapony at the at the back of the room with wide eyes, the seapony matching our expression and covering her mouth with both hands.

Silence. Aguion and Lightning glared at her.

“WHAT?!”

Three days later was the day. I was lying down on my bed, the backpack with my clothes and some personal things – bless the guy who created the space-expansion spell – at my side, thinking on why we were going to Equestria. The country was opening its borders for those who wanted to live there. But with this Everfree Forest going wild and more dangerous than ever, they needed to upgrade the guard on this town called Ponyville. Except that the Royal Guard was more of a “we catch thieves” police, not a “we kill monsters” police, so they would need to put an army on the place; that would be a bit suspicious. To avoid that, they asked for help and Hybrios sent the sixteen of us to live there and protect the place. We’re perfect to for it since we’re trained to deal with this kind of shit, we blend in the crowd well, and we’re fucking badass. Also, this would improve the bond between Equestria and Hybrios, since my country is basically that guy that sits on the back of the class and never talks to anyone, except to say hello.

'Honestly, I don’t have any problems with living there, since everything I like that’s here can be transported or replaced easily. And if some job appears here, we will be notified by phone and can get here via Teleport Rune. The only thing I regret is…' I let my thoughts trail off, frowning.

“Hey.” A voice snapped me back to reality. I sat on the bed and looked at the door, where a griffoness was leaning on the doorframe. I noticed she was holding something on her hand, put I couldn't see what was it.

“Hey, Amber.” I said with a small smile. Amber is my middle sister, three years younger than Aguion and Lightning. She has orange eyes and a beige hair; her clothes were a simple beige short-sleeved shirt, blue jeans, and a tear-shaped amber pendant.

“You’re gonna miss them, right?” She asked while she walked closer to the bed.

I rolled my eyes. “Duh. The only thing I can’t bring with me... Bah, I can visit them when I get some job here, but I wanted to at least say goodbye…” I said sorrowfully.

“Yeah…" She trailed off, letting silence take over for a moment before looking back at me with a smile. "Hey, Lupine dropped this here this morning before she went on her mission.” She handed me what she was holding, a letter and two small black boxes.

I inspected the letter for a moment. “Sis, can you call Scar for me?” I asked, looking back up at my sister.

She smiled and nodded. “Sure.” She exited the room and went on a search for Scarlett, which took only five minutes.

“Called?” Scarlett said, sitting by my side.

“Mhm. The others sent us those; the letter says it for both of us.” I showed her the letter and boxes.

“Heh, it looks like those engagement ring boxes. Are you dating one of the boys and didn’t tell me?” She asked with a smirk and a raised eyebrow.

“Funny.” I said with a bemused stare.

We opened the boxes and saw two spheres inside them, one red and the other pink. We immediately recognized what they are.

“Is this...?” Scarlett said with wide eyes and a smile forming on her face.

"I think so... Let's not jump to conclusions, the letter should explain what these are." I answered before start reading the letter.

Dear psycho sisters,

Hey, we’re sorry we couldn’t be there to say goodbye, but this misson is too important. Again, we’re really sorry. We're waiting for you to visit us when you have the time.

Look, we were going to give those to you two on your birthday, but I think it would be better if give to you already, as a “goodbye”. Those are Soulbound Weapons, the sphere it’s just a compact version when they´re not bounded to anyone yet. Pink for Fairy and red for Scarlett, if you didn’t figured it out already.

Fairy, your weapons are two kusarigamas, a mix between a Kama and a chain. I saw you training with one once and you looked pretty good at it. Their names are Soul Rippers.

Scarlett, your weapon is a bloodstone scythe, like your Vampire Fangs. It’s pretty badass, a weapon every vampire should have. Its name is pretty much your style: Bloodlust. What can I say? You’re the most fucked-up-in-the-head person I've ever met.

We’ll try to visit you together in three months, on your double birthday party. See ya there.

Signed, Lupine, the Sand Dancer

Mist, the Illusionist Marksman

Boulder Breaker, the Bull of Vengeance

Shadow Talon, the Death’s Shadow

Sarah, the Thunder Spear

Icicle Star, the Winter’s Diamond

We smiled at the letter, I felt a tear trail down my wiped ti off, noticing that Scar wasn't much better. After we calmed ourselves we took the spheres from the boxes and went to different sides of the room; me next to the door and Scarlett by the window.

“Ready?” Scarlett asked.

“Always.” I answered.

We closed our eyes and put our magic on the spheres. My sphere started glowing pink and expanded, taking the form of a regular kama before splitting in two. I looked to Scar and saw that her weapon still wasn't finished changing, seeing as it was bigger than mine. The weapons' glow disappeared and revealed the weapons, making our eyes widen.

On my hands were two kamas with black handles and pink blades, decorated with petals on the blades and on the end of the handle were a rose-like decoration. Scarlett’s scythe was very big, painted black with a blade that resembled a demon's wing. But there were another detail on the base of the blades.

Our Signature Marks, known world-wide as Cutie Marks.

Remember when I said that I was half-pony? Yeah, she's too.

My Cutie Mark is a heart with a chain around it and Scarlett's Cutie Mark is a vampiric heart.

After we inspected our weapons and decided they’re awesome as hell, we put our backpacks on our backs and joined the others who were ready to leave the house. When we were outside, we stared at the house for a moment before turning and starting our walk to the airport.

“Guys, are you ready for Equestria?” Aguion asked with a broad grin. We all shouted yes.

“But honestly, I don’t think Equestria is ready for us.” I said, making everyone chuckle.

Author's Notes:

Third's the charm? Apparently not, because I had to edit this again. I read this thing again, looking for typos, and cringed at some moments that I could improve what happened, and some verbs on present tense that I missed.

It gets better, I assure you.

This fic is on Fairy's POV, like she's remembering what happened. The jokes I could do with this...

Everytime she isn't in the room the fic will act as a third person fic to prevent confusion.

Ah! I noticed my description of Fairy's shirt was the worst possible, so here's what it looks like:

The chain connects on the middle and goes around her lower back.

Also, Sarah is BarkTree's OC, you'll see her later.
