Load Full Story Next ChapterEd's POV Canterlot Gardens
My name is Edward Elric, aka the Fullmetal Alchemist, and the idiot who is annoying the crap out of me cause he won't shut up is Discord, the Lord of Chaos. So long story short of why I have spent the last few millennia encased in stone is, cause I'm the idiot that got in over my head. It all started when I bought this awesome Philosopher Stone pendent from this weirdo vendor, who was dressed as Handsome Jack from Borderlands back in my hometown's version of comic con.
Next thing I know is he said, “Enjoy your trip.”
Then everything goes white, and I'm waking up in some god forsaken forest with a migraine, but that's just how I ended up in this version of reality, and not how I was turned into a damn living lawn ornament.
Anyways back to the present, I just saw the latest batch of fillies and foals of the day pass by, must have been on a field trip. Three of them just got into a bit of a fight, funniest thing I've seen in days, but unfortunately, the all powerful God of Disharmony is on the loose because of it. I thought I could now actually have some peace and quiet for a few hours.
...Or at least until I was knock over by something very fast and very multicolored.
“ I swear does anybody have manners anymore!?! Just knock a guy over during a nap, not so much as a sorry or excuse me, sheesh.” Well, let’s check and see what the damage here:“Arms, legs, ten fingers and ten toes. All other parts are present and accounted for. Good thing my clothes didn't petrify either. And now to get the hell out of this garden!” I said aloud.
As I pulled up my hood to make sure my eyes weren't noticeable to any pony that might see me, whilst I looked for a way out of the maze.
I must have walked around that freaking maze for at least an hour, before I finally made it to the main grounds to get in and out of the damn castle.
“Okay, the first thing I need to do is find out where the throne room is.” I thought to myself aloud again, one of the habits I always had trouble breaking. “Then I should probably let Celestia and Luna know I'm free, and the bed they had made for me was broken and that it definitely wasn't my fault.”
I decided to ask one of the guards I saw standing at the main entrance to the castle.
“Hey, sorry to interrupt your patrols or duty, but could you possibly tell me how to get to the throne room?” I said.
Next thing I know, they're all pointing their spears at me like I'm some sort of villain.
Quick side note if you were wondering, in this version of reality the ponies of Equestria are for the most part look exactly like human except for the fact they have tails and their ears are well like, ponies. There are a few extra details as will like when it comes to ponies there are three distinct races each with there own variant of magic and they would be the unicorns, pegasi, and earth ponies as well as three alicorns that have the features of all three. There are other races as well, but that's for a later date. The most distinguishing feature is the horn for unicorns on their foreheads, the wings for a pegasus on their backs, for the earth ponies is simply there ears and tails. Then we have the alicorns and they have all the features listed, but are far more powerful than all the other ponies, and there are currently only three at this time. I’ve known two of them for a very, very, very long time.
“Halt!” Said the guard I had asked for directions.“You a hear by placed under arrest for suspicious activities on the royal grounds of Princesses Celestia and Princess Luna.”
“Look, I just want to go and talk with the Princesses okay?” I replied slightly annoyed with the spears in my face.
The first guard asked, “And why do you need to talk to talk with them?”
“Lets just say it's very personal matter and leave it at that, alright?” I said while letting out a sigh.
“Then, if you're unwilling to share that reason with us, I’m afraid you’ll still be placed under arrest for suspicious activities. As well as withholding information that relates to the before mentioned term.”said the second guard.
“And, if you willing to comply with the right set of protocols, we should be able to get you in to see the Princesses after their last meeting of today.” Said another.
Not wanting to cause any more trouble than necessary, I decided it would probably be in my best interests to go along with the guards.
So I was promptly arrested by the guards, and held at spear point all the way to the barracks, as they began the court process for me, which would inevitably reunite me with my oldest friends in this world. This was thoroughly pissing me off.
“Really, at this point they are probably the only real family I have left. Except for the monsters that were still out there. The monsters I had to find and destroy. That were created because of the stupid mistake I had made 2000 years ago,” I thought this to myself as I lay in my cell.
While waiting I would occasionally yell out, “Take me to your leaders!” in a attempt to sound like a total alien
Just to piss off the guards on duty.
