Chapter 3: Chapter 3: First Contact
Previous Chapter Next ChapterLast Time…
She started crying and wanted to yell but no one would even response and even if she did she couldn’t because the fear that the creature in front of her will do something to her was too big to brake it.When the creature was in front of her it said more words in some unknown to her language…
---------NOW--------
Sauron was approaching the little alicorn and he was trying not scare her, he made her cry it was enough close to make her go unconscious and if it will happen he won’t get any answers or to know where the nearest city or village to go to. The image of a crying child was… sad for him for some reason and it shouldn’t, he destroyed lived of many children by killing their perents.But for some reason seeing this one crying was a torture for his eyes, he never was like this… he didn’t know what to do it was very strange feeling and if Morgoth was not in the void then he would get the worst punishment for showing emotions to this creature.
The alicorn had nice curly mane and it looked like cotton candy, her eyes ware nice and pretty and for some reason they seemed to be too big for a creature like her. She had white-pink fur and from the look of it she was fluffy, she had a good grown horn and her wings were the same color as her body and one of her wings was broken probably because of the battle.
He then looked at her legs and her hooves ware protected by nice and fancy looking boots. She was lying on the ground and waiting for him to come close enough, with every step he saw how she tried to close her eyes but she couldn’t for some reason as if something was… restraining her from doing it.
But something caught his attention…one of her front legs was broken he could see the purple bruise, so that also explains why she didn’t even bother to run or move…
‘She just couldn’t’ Sauron thought and something was telling him to try and heal her but he wasn’t good in healing spells, he could heal some cuts and other lesser injuries but healing a broken leg or wing was beyond his skills. But on the other hand he was way more powerful than in Middle-Earth he could be and with this one wing maybe he could try to heal her.
He kneeled down before her and examined her once more to look for any injuries but he didn’t see any, he didn’t notice but the Alicorn did flinch when he kneeled down and a shiver did go through her when he examined her once more.
‘I still have my armor under this robes… I need to unsummon them’
Smoke like cloud mixed with sparks and half burning ash was coming out of him, the alicorn finally closed her eyes even if she wanted to see what will and was happening .She awaited her death or some other kind of horrifying torture from the bipedal creature kneeling in front of her. But all she got was a whole lot of nothing.
She opened her eyes again and saw the same creature in its robes without a face and was kneeling before her, she didn’t know what happened. You say the creature just like exploded inside and the smoke or something did come out, if this was a dream then Princess Luna would save her from this monster.
When Sauron completed to unsummon his armor he had a debate if he should reveal his face or not, he didn’t know if he did change to…before joining Morgoth he was considered beautiful but after joining him he started to look more sinister and ugly. After all she would be calmer if she would see his face and who knows maybe his charming face did return.
He slowly hang his head down and it looked like if he was bowing in front of the alicorn but in reality he just did that to make a surprise for the alicorn when he will take his hood down but before he has to delete the illusion spell that covered his face with a shadow making him look like the Grim Reaper.
The alicorn looked at him with interest and she also stopped sobbing, she saw as the creature did a little gesture with his finger and a shadow like fog was released the area where he technically had a face. She gulped hard and with tired and scared like eyes she looked what the creature would do.
And the young mare didn’t expect that the creature in front of her would make her most wanted dreams come true…
Sauron took his hood of and looked down at the mare in front of her, if he was insane he could say that she was blushing and and she tried to hide it somehow. But in all of his dreams he didn’t think he will make a Morgoth damn horse blush because of his handsomeness. He would gladly make a mirror or something with his magic but for now he had to know where he is.
So he begins talking…
“Izg liwo nar nûl-latu”…(I will not hurt you) Sauron said not knowing that he was speaking in his language, with a smile that could conquer all hearts… but not this time
The alicorns blush quickly faded and she looked at him with again scary eyes and he could swear that she was just too about piss herself from the fear that was in her. She looked like a fluffy ball that was so adorable looking, for some reason he wanted to pet her. But before he could do this the alicorn answered looking at him with puppy eyes that could melt all the evil in the world.
“I-I do not und-underst-aa-and y-you.” she said with a shaky voice. The voice was soft and calm but he could hear the fear in it.
Sauron looked at her with a blank face and at the right timing like if it was a book or story a light wind touching the leafs was his reaction. But then he noticed his smile was gone and smiled again to make this alicorn comfortable and it seemed like she did buy it as a friendly gest.
‘This is strange I do understand her but she doesn’t me… I need to ask her stuff using gestures and hands’ Thought Sauron in his mind as he opened his mouth and put his hand on the ground
The alicorn looked at him and didn’t know how to react but soon she got her answer as the creature in front of her drew a question mark and after it he said.
“…Oi.”
She thought that it meant 'where' or 'what' maybe 'why' or something like that, but before choosing one of these words for an answer he drew another thing. The next drawing ware some houses and a castle or something similar to it with a wall and river next to it, the creature after the gesture said
“Amal.”
She didn’t know if she should answer or not, she was scared to oblivion and not even Tartarus could make her fear more than the thought that when she will response to this scary and too much powerful creature (that is very handsome for not a pony) and he will go to a nearby village or city or something and do a slaughter party.
But she looked at him and wanted to response and she only saw him smile again at her and it was very nice and it wasn’t a hostile thing to smile and it didn’t mean anything evil too…he did save her from that dragon in a…brutal way but he isn’t a pony, but still he had injured the dragon very much and did make him half blinded.
‘Maybe he can be trusted’ Thought the alicorn and her thought continued after ‘Maybe I can become friends with him…’ She thought as she remembered how aunt twilight teached her about the magic of friendship.
She looked at him one more time and did the same as he and smiled awkwardly and asked him if she did understand what he meant.
“You w-want to know w-where a city is?” she said in a not so much shaky voice, and Sauron nodded to the response.
Sauron then let out a sigh and pointed at her leg and wing, she looked at him with confused eyes but she understood him when he took a nearby by stick and broke it making a little crack sound and when the stick was in half he drew another question mark on the ground making his gestures a question.
She nodded and responded “Yes they’re broken.”
She then tried to move her leg put it only delivered pain, but Sauron placed his hand on her shoulder and the other hand on her hove slowly putting in down again on the ground.
She did flinch when she saw him place his hand on her shoulder and thought he is going to do something bad to her. When she saw him place his other and on her hoof she blushed a little, but thanks to her color it wasn’t really visible.
When Sauron did take care of her little pain problem but just putting her leg on the ground, he again looked at her and did a fake smile that was so realistic it could conquer the hearts of all females. He had to something not to make her be in fear all the time so when he was ready he pointed at himself and said.
“Izg…” and then the alicorn thought it meant ‘I’
He then pointed at the broken leg and wing, she didn’t know what he meant for now but she continued to look at what he will do. From one of his hand he released some pure mana and magic in a little orange fog\flame like state and grabbed the stick and the two pieces of the broken stick got together and they merged making the stick a stick again and not a broken stick.
She looked at him with shocked eyes she didn’t expect him to want to heal her with his magic, she felled embarrassed by the thoughts she got about him that he is an evil being that only does evil. She was about to nod in approval in his offer but then she reminded herself about his other question about asking where is a city, she opened her mouth and answered this question.
“You asked about a city…Far away from here there is the capital of this land where my parents rule…” she answering his previous question.
He looked at her and his smile was gone in an instant, Sauron didn’t expect to save the daughter of the rulers of this land. This also answered why she had armor and a crown on her head, he had experience with royalty and if he wanted to get what he wants he had to play nice for now.
‘Maybe I could control this Country like I once did with the Numenor?’ Thought Sauron and he smiled again to her and bowed his head.
The princess alicorn looked at him with an confused look but after a couple seconds she knew he was bowing.Propably the information that her parents ruled this land made him think she is royalty and he made a simple gesture of showing respect in front her by bowing his head. She placed her not broken hove on his shoulder and said.
“Don’t bow you, saved me… I should be the one to bow.” And with this she did as she said and bowed before him.
For Sauron this was funny, because he was also a ruler but she didn’t know about it and now they just did a greeting to each other without knowing it. But if she only knew what kind of ruler he was then he could be confident about that she would have bowed first and he would not even think in response.
He looked again at her and he looked at the broken wing and then at the leg one more time, the leg was to be healed but the wing was too much for his skill. When she finished bowing she looked at him and Sauron only got closer to the alicorn and took placed his hand on her broken leg and he started healing her wound.
His magic did as he ordered and he focused his attention on the wound and wanted to heal her leg, the magic and energy slowly wrapped around the wound and the wound started to slowly very slowly disappear, the energy then entered her leg and the wound started to disappear a little faster.
He didn’t notice but his ring started glowing and with it his anger and sorrow started to wave at him and distracted him from doing what he is doing. He slowly was getting more and angrier but he had control over his emotions… for now.
When the wound was healed he stopped immediately and looked at her with again the same fake smile that could conquer all the female heart there are and for some reason it also started working on the pony because she blushed at this and he did see how her pink changed to red on her cheeks.
