He looked me in the eyes, his own filled with fury and sadness, and told me the name of the bastard.

"Silver Shot."

My eyes widened and I thought back to when we first met. He didn't seem like the type for this, and he was really reluctant about getting into any form of fighting. I didn't want to believe him, but I if it's true then something needs to be done.

"Are you sure it was him?" I asked. This didn't seem like the guy I knew. And I didn't see him at all at the duel. Pen looked at me like I called him fat.

"I'm very certain it was him. You can even look it up on the rosters posted on the matches." He said. I wasn't expecting this. Silver Shot? Really? Of all ponies?

I was beginning to question my encounter about him. Maybe he wasn't as innocent after all. I should start following him for a few days. Just to see what he does with Pen's mare.

"I'll see what I can do about this." I said. He gave me a look of hope. I wasn't too fond of making promises, but maybe I can do something about it this time.

"Please, I don't want to lose her." He whimpered, tears beginning to form around his eyes. I nodded towards the guards, and they let him go. He began slowly, and sadly, walked away. Everyone watched him leave and I felt horrible. Or was it a sense of pity?

"Dear Franz, what ails you?" Asked Luna, getting close to me. I looked over to her and saw one of the women I mercilessly killed at the base. I turned away and frowned. I guess that 50\50 wasn't in my favor.

"Nothing. I'm just tired." I said, almost impulsively. She must've noticed my lie, and so did Celestia.

I was then grabbed and turned to face Luna, and much to my surprise, she had a angry scowl.

"NO! I will not have you fall back to the pony that didn't care!" She began shaking me, much to my discomfort.

"I won't have this anymore! I love you too much to let you turn you back against everypony again! I won't let you go down that path again! I won't have it!" She shouted furiously. Wait, what did she say?

"Y-you... love me?" I asked quietly, not sure I was hearing her right.

She looked a bit embarrassed, but held firm.

"I have always loved you. It just took me a while to realize that when we first met." She said, staring into my eyes. I felt like I wasn't worth it, since there was so much blood on my hooves, hands, whatever.

"I'm not sure I would be the best choice." I said. I noticed that it was empty of servants and guards, save for Celestia, who was watching me with a sad look. She then made her way over to us, the frown on her muzzle not going away.

"Franz, I've never seen a more honorable stallion in my time. You have saved countless lives and saved Equestria from more than just threats to the country. I have seen you face against unknown gods, and come out on top. I have seen your inner essence and found nothing but a honest soul who was misguided, and abused from his world. You are more than worthy to be with my sister." She said. I was taken back from her words. I saved this world before? I think it was from Discord, but she said 'Gods', so what else did I fend off?

"I remembered some of those memories. They weren't very good ones." I said, feeling Luna let me go.

"Like?" Asked Luna, looking at me with a small smile.

"Like me slaughtering an entire base full of soldiers in a fit of blind rage." I said, lowering my head out of shame. I didn't want to remember it, but I should know what I did wrong to atone for it.

"You did what?" Asked Celestia. I flinched at her tone, her going from a gently tone to serious in an instant catching me off guard.

"I-I ki-" I was cut off by Celestia as she flared her wings outwards, causing me to cower from their sheer size.

"Sister, surely all of his good deeds can atone for his sins. Can it not?" Asked Luna, getting between me and her sister.

(For more effect, play this all the way!)

"I wish to speak to him." She said, not wavering in the slightest. I took a gamble and looked up to see her glare. I didn't think she was capable of getting angry.

"But Tia, surely he can-"

"Alone, please sister." She said, looking over to her with a frown. I saw Luna frown and watched her reluctantly walk out the throne door, leaving me with Celestia.

I turned back to her, not sure what was going through her head as she stared down at me. I could probably take her on, but I wasn't sure I should.

"Franz, I wish to ask you something." She said, her tone doing some sort of alluring sensation. It didn't make much sense to me, but I just nodded.

"Do you have any intention of hurting any of my subjects? My ponies, or even those in The Royal Guard?" She asked. I looked at her for a second, and shook my head no.

"Did you plan on hurting any of my subjects while staying in Equestria?"

"No." I said, getting a bit of confidence back.

"Then why did your memories say otherwise?" She said, bringing her face close to mine. She didn't have a glare anymore, but instead a sad look.

I hated that look. I gave in quickly to my bottled up anger, not wanting to get treated like some kid anymore.

"I was betrayed. By the one I had fallen for prior to Luna. She had used my family to try and detain me so my own kind could experiment on me and use my power for themselves. I know how my world works, but do you know, Celestia, how dangerous it is? How hard it was to not go around and break something, or someone that has destroyed you in the worse way possible?" I said, getting more and more frustrated with her line of questioning.

"Do you have any idea how fucked up my world is? How many people are killed everyday and how many will be in the next? How many children are abandoned or killed, just because they weren't wanted? How many problems we faced daily, including our own extinction from ourselves by nuclear annihilation?" I asked. She didn't seem to back down, but I could see the cracks in her persona.

"Or how many children are killed because they were involved in something they had no idea about? How many soldiers that aren't as lucky and have to put down said child because they were simply an 'enemy'?" I continued, getting closer to her in a near-predatory way. She seemed to be cracking, was looking very uncomfortable, almost disturbed by what I had said.

"Or how about the fact that backstabbing bitches kill your own family just because they were a necessary casualty!" I shouted, making her flinch from my voice. I don't think she had ever heard me yell at anyone, especially her or Luna.

"Franz, I know that you are upset, but you cannot yell at a princess. Even if they are being inconsiderate, it sets a bad exa-" She stopped, noticing the paralyzing stare I was giving her. She froze up as I walked up to her, not caring about her feelings anymore. She could handle the truth.

She looked at me with a fearful expression, one that I could easily recognize by now. I got close to her muzzle, and stared into her eyes, making them glow with anger.

"To hell with bad examples, I'm a living embodiment of one. I try to be better than the scum of my old world, I really do. You have no idea how far I'm willing to go to change who I am, to go back to who I was. I strive to be the better person, and I won't let memories of a horrible past judge me." I said, lowering my voice to a hushed whisper.

I closed my eyes and walked away from Celestia, letting her form relax and move around freely.

"If you do that again in front of either Luna or me, I'll take it as a challenge and strike you down in our hypothetical match. I didn't want to warn you, but you pushed me too far asking me those questions." I said, looking back at her sweating form. She had face of guilt, and fear.

"I always knew that you were a kind, misguided soul. But to actually feel your distaste to hurting others, is unnerving, almost terrifying." She said, trying to regain some form of composure.

"I almost don't recognize you anymore. You have gone from a hurt, battered individual, desperate for affection and trust, to a pony that I can... trust entirely with my sister. I see now why she chose you. She needed somepony to help her with her trust issues, and you had been betrayed by your past loved ones. She saw something in you, and I believe it was your drive to help, and to change." She said, half-smiling at the end.

I got a bit of whiplash as she seemed to cheer up so quickly from my verbal tantrum. I then grunted as I was pinned down immediately by her magic, taken completely off guard.

"But if you so much as use another ocular ability on me, or anypony for the matter, you will be punished accordingly. Am, I clear?" She confirmed, adding a bit of weight to my body. I nodded profusely, getting the message from her.

"Got it!" I yelped as I felt my armor cackle from the sheer pressure she was pushing onto me.

I was sitting alone in my room, currently making another set of armor. This one was going to be different than my other two, since it was going to be used for stealth and spying primarily. If I was going to catch Silver Shot taking Pen's mare without regret, I would have to challenge him and "win" her over to me.

As it turns out, you can release your legal hold over objects, land, and yes, even other ponies. Unfortunately, it was common to duel for one stallions mare, and I would have to fix that later down the road. Maybe sooner rather than later.

Normally, what I would do is use a previous set of armor creation, copy it, and strip it of any and all equipment for more space on the body for other equipment. For Twilight's, I had to make that from basically scratch, and it was a task to not just quit on it.

But for my stealth armor, I just made it to have active camouflage and a large energy supply to power the active camo. It looked a very little like the first armor, since it was slim and had less armor for more mobility.

I didn't know about how magic worked here, so I also added a magic dampener just in case, along with 3x energy shields to be able to take massive hits. It looked like it belonged to a stealth specialist, and I liked the way it turned out.

*knock knock*

"It's open!" I called, hiding my laptop under my pillows. I knew that I was a part of royalty since the first few days I awoke, but never did I realize that there was going to be this many pillows in my room!

"Dear Franz?" Asked Luna, popping her head in and spotting me on the bed. She looked like she was somewhat stressed, probably since I didn't find her after Celestia asked me questions.

"Yeah?" I asked, noticing the look of relief after spotting me. She let out a sigh.

"We believed she was going to wish harm upon you." She said, coming closer to the bed. She stopped and looked at me for permission this time, instead of just jumping on like before.

"Come on, sit with me." I said. She smiled and hopped on, giving me a slight nudge as she climbed over to me. This was a really large bed if it could hold me, and her.

"What did she say to you?" She asked, getting close to me.

"She just asked me some questions regarding my past. Nothing too bad honestly." I answered back. It was weird doing that whole speech thing on the spot, almost like I was doing some sort of hero speech. I was going to have to check up on the other sets of storage units as well. To see what they had in store for me. I grimaced internally at what I would see in the 'Happy Times' unit. Would it be just me with that woman, or would it be me with Luna and Celestia? When I checked my folders for saved imaged, it cut off right before July began. Maybe that's when I acquired my power?

"Well, it does seem like thou has quite the abundance of technology. Did she mention anything about that as well?" She inquired.

"Actually, she didn't even mention anything about my tech. A bit weird if I do say so myself." I replied. Wait, how did she know I was thinking that? Was it our link?

We stayed there for a few minutes, before remembering what my friends gave me. I didn't want to think of them as servants, I wanted everyone to be friendly with me. But not too friendly, or I'm gonna have a bad time.

"Luna, I have a gift for you." I said, using a Russian accent. She smiled at my mock-accent.

"And that is?" She asked, giving me a half lidded look. I ignored that particular stare and puled out the necklaces they gave me. Luna looked at them with confusion, then shock.

"Summer Springs and Marble Shine gave me this today. They said it was so that we could trust each other more, but I didn't see much of an improvement in them." I said, dangling them with my magic. doing magic had gotten easier for me, but still didn't know any more spells other than a large magic blast and levitation.

"W-what is the enchantment?" She asked nervously.

"Just a simple tracking thing. They said it can let you feel where they are precisely, but in a field of several meters or yards or something. Pretty nifty I suppose." I said, adding my own bit at the end. Luna stared at it for a second, before putting on the one that had my mark.

"I don't think that's how it's supposed to work." I said. She only smiled and gave me a peck on the cheek, much to my embarrassment.

"Nay, these work by wearing the other pony's Cutie Mark on their body. But since this is a tracking spell, it would be a better idea to wear the other's Cutie Mark. One can wear their own Mark, but it wouldn't have the desired effect." She said, rubbing my side with hers.

"You're pretty touchy, you know that?" I said, looking slightly up at her. Not that I didn't appreciate the affection, it's just that I was awkward. There was also the incident with Ditzy, and I didn't know when to bring that up.

"You were warmer when we first met. Now I have to warm you up before we can let thee go." She said, wrapping me in a hug. I sat there, not moving in case I accidentally do something to warrant an unwanted response from her.

"Why art thee so stiff? Thou should relax more." She added, now nuzzling into my neck. She was nice enough to watch her horn, and not stab me in the face with it.

"Am I still awkward?" I asked.

"Quite." She giggled.

"Though we are quite certain we can make something else stiff as well."

"Please don't." I asked, though I was certain she would get what she wanted when the time came.

This fit the scene for me.)

I snapped another soldiers neck, not caring about how they begged me to let them go. I looked down at the amount of bodies, blood, and gore, and grinned a horrible smile.

I had completed my first part of my revenge. I looked over the site. There wasn't anything here for me to use that I could just make.

Cutting the main gas line to the base I set it aflame and watched it burn. An entire battalion, consisting of three sets a dozen helicopters and two news choppers started to trickle in. I grinned and raised my energy staff. Forcing my will into it, lightning lashed out and struck the flying mechanisms, shorting out the circuits and forcing it to crash. Those who weren't killed by my attacks were certainly dead from the crash.

I tuned my visor to the news and saw that I had made the breaking news twice in one week

[Another aircraft has been struck down from the entity. The newly declassified Foundation personnel have been authorized to use lethal force in an attempt to kill this being in armor. As stated, the nuclear device that was set off was in fact, a Tsar bomb, which killed in total several thousand civilians and military personnel, and counting.] Said the male reporter that was in the distance.

I created a spear and aimed for their foot railings, since they were civilians. I wanted to scare them, because they were making me to be the bad guy. I wasn't, I was doing this for my family.

[It appears the being is making some sort of weapon, and preparing another attack. Wait, HEY GET US OUT OF HERE!] I grinned sadistically. Oh how wrong they were.

Pulling back, I threw the spear of energy and watched as it grazed them, cutting off their railings and giving them a scare.

[WHOA! We almost got hit! Pilot! Please!] Yelled the reporter. The camera feed was shaking badly and I knew the cameraman was startled.

[What do you mean, we have to stay! We almost got killed!] He yelled, fear evident in his voice. The other helicopters began firing at me. I activated a bubble shield, but watched the feed as the glowing bullets hit my spot, seemingly ending my rampage. They were quiet from my point of view, as the addition of thundering of missiles also began pounding at my shields. I knew that they couldn't hurt me, even with their strongest weapons.

[Can anything even survive that.] I grinned again.

Readying for another attack I launched several EMP disks at the helicopters, short circuiting the power and making them fall to a fiery demise.

[Holy shit! Pilot! What's happening?!]

I'll let them live. They didn't have any part of this.

Yet

I woke up and found that I was alone in my room again. Luna must've left when I fell asleep, since I passed out when we were talking about how stiff I was. Then afterwards she teased me about another thing that can get stiff and I just decided that going to sleep at 7:30 was good enough for me.

The sunlight was barely poking out from the clouds as I woke, shining across the land and beginning another day of the week. Tuesday, I think today was.

Getting out of my restricting blankets, I made my way to the balcony. I hadn't had the chance to use it and I wanted to feel a bit of a breeze before going back in and taking a shower. I opened the glass doors and was met with a cool breeze that made this morning even more pleasant.

The balcony was large, about 10 feet wide and 12 feel long. I wondered what the supports looked like. Probably pillars that came out to support it.

I took in a crisp breath. Last night's dream was somewhat better. At least the past version of myself had some form of restraint. But I still didn't like the way he still attacked the civilian helicopter. It wasn't necessary to scare them. he could have just ran like all the other times.

I looked over the edge and saw some of the ponies starting to go about their daily business. Some opening shops and others going to places to do shopping. I don't think that there is much crime here. Either that or I just wasn't around to know about it.

I went back inside and took a shower, using warm water this time to relax my muscles and provide some form of stress relief. If I was going to shadow Silver Shot at all today, then I would need to get ready and armor up.

'Don't worry, Pen. I'll help you out.' I thought, turning the shower knob off and walking out to grab a towel. Ever since Luna did that spell on me, I wasn't to keen on breaking the bathroom or feeling helpless like that again.

I was on my way to Ponyville with my new suit. It was just some Nano-Armor that would slide over me and my head, giving me the appearance of a ninja. The Data Pad on my wrist showed me how much time I had exactly for Active Camo use. I could use it for about three hours if I didn't have my shields on. And If I did, then it would only last about an hour and a half.

(New suit!)

I also made sure to tell Luna about what I had planned today, so I wouldn't scare her if I had just disappeared. She seemed happy that I was going to help some guy get his marefriend back. Something about honor or pride she was going off about before I left.

Funny thing about Active Camo. You don't need a suit to operate it. You just needed the small device the size of a oddly shaped brick. This time, I made sure to keep it strapped on my chest. The Nano-Armor would hold onto it and keep it secure, I was sure of it. The armor itself looked like a thin sweater, but it could give me quick access to using my wings for fast retreat if need be.

I arrived and hopped off the train, looking over the station I was ignored for the most part. I pulled the hood over my head and made my way to Town Hall. I would to able to see everything more clearly once up on the roof. That and I wanted to see some of the girls again, and maybe Ditzy if I get the chance. I haven't seen her since last week.

I saw that there were still some reporters here in Ponyville and they were looking for a story of some sorts. I brushed by some of them when walking and nearly caught their attention at one point.

I saw Sugarcube Corner and noticed quite a few ponies in there. It looked like there was some sort of sale going on and I wanted to check it out. Maybe grab something and leave.

"Wort Wort Wort." I muttered, making my armor slide over me and activate the Active Camo. A low hum filled my ears and my field of vision was momentarily distorted, but returned to normal once a moment had passed. Not being used to active camouflage, I admired my nothing self before going inside and seeing that all of the items for sale were gone. Darn, and it said free samples too. I saw Applejack and Pinkie. Did she work here? It would make sense. Applejack looked like she was absolutely exhausted, but I ignored it as I had more pressing matters.

Leaving Sugarcube Corner I found a safe spot to deactivate my armor. It receded back into the sweater, and I left my hiding spot with my hood still draped over my head.

Making my way around town, I couldn't find any sign of him. Maybe he was having a chill day? Probably with Nether and Blossom. I haven't seen them since before Luna's corrupted form attack.

I kept looking for another hour, receiving a few looks from the town folk. Maybe Ditzy knows where he might live.

I turned back around and made my way back to Town Hall. I'll ask the mayor where the house could be. And if not, then I'll ask Ditzy. She knew her way around Ponyville, so she'll be my backup plan should the mayor decline it.

I walked right into the main building for Town Hall and saw that there was several ponies with desks doing a variety of paperwork. It wasn't very interesting to me, since I had a main goal, but maybe I can check into it later. Is that legal? Maybe not but I'm a muthafuckin prince, so it should be for me. Okay maybe not but I'm still curious.

"Hello sir. Do you need any help today?" Asked someone to my left. Turning I saw a secretary with a bored look in her eyes. There was a desk with minimal paper and a couple hallways around her.

"Yes, is the major in their office today?" I asked, using Kakashi's voice in case someone recognized my real voice.

"Yeah. Go down the hall on my right and follow it until you get to her office." She said, not sounding very enthusiastic or even alive. Was this job really that boring?

"Thanks." I responded, going to her desk to fill out a paper with my name on it. She looked over it without second thought and apparently didn't recognize my name.

"You can go now. Have a wonderful day." She said monotonously. I nodded and began walking down the right hall. Apparently they let anyone in to see the major, no matter what they might be wearing. I noticed that it was quiet in here and that I would have to keep it that way. Not that it mattered, but I didn't wear this suit for show.

I made it to a door that was open and peered inside. Sitting there was a pale grayish amber Earth pony with a light bluish gray mane and tail. I knocked on the door and she looked up and saw me.

"Oh, hello there. I didn't quite see you there. Come on in." She said, sounding surprised, yet cheery.

"Oh, sorry, I just happened to be near. I had a few questions regarding a certain pony." I said, changing my voice. She looked at my hooded figure and tilted her head slightly.

"If you're another reporter trying to get a scoop, I just so happen to hear about something!" She said, sounding giddy.

"No. I just have some questions. That is all." I corrected, not wanting her to get the wrong idea like what happened with Ditzy.

"Anypony in particular?" She asked, looking at me with a small smile.

"Yes."

"Alright! Now, who did you have in mind?" She asked, leaning over her desk and resting her forelegs on it.

"Do you happen to know where *ahem* Silver Shot lives?" I said, lowering my hood with my magic and changing my voice back to normal. She saw my face and immediately gained a shocked look.

"I need to have a chat with him."

Surprise!

Edit: Some changes for this one, but more corrections and sensible stuff yadda yadda yadda
