The Coltalition
Chapter 8: Part Eight
Previous Chapter Next ChapterChapter 27
Our colt, Blueblood, has finally met the one known as Twilight Sparkle. Though he does not no that he is the 'chosen one' yet. They appear in the War Room in a flash of a second.
"Fillies and Gentalcolts! I am pleased to announce i have returned with our keystone of ponies. The one that will bring down our evil ruler!" Twilight exclaimed to the other Ops ponies in the room.
"Now, prince, me and Sorin' have some... business to discuss about your adventure. Feel free to talk to any pony while your stay here at Beehive." said Twilight
Our colt then is left in a room with a group of what appeared to be harden criminals. they look at him with discuss because he is the known heir to the crown.
"Excuse me, where may I..." our colt was interrupted.
"OK! Stand attention for your comander!" shouted a small dark figure that just entered the war room.
"I said stand at... wait? Who is this in my War Room?!" the figure walked into the room pissed off. "AND WHO ARE YOU!"
"I... I am... am..." stuttered our colt
"What? You cant speak!" the figure pulled out a hoof gun
"I am Prince Blueblood" shouted our colt "get that away from me!!!"
There was a pause between the two...
"My upmost apologies prince. You see, you caused me and a lot of us here some stress you see. Let me introduce my self. I am the Commander of Operations Spike." explained Spike
"Im sorry, I don't believe I do understand what i have caused." questioned our colt
"Well, you see, you are the VIP that we found. We sent Sorin' and three others to transport you here. Then, they got intercepted. One pegasus died during the altercation. Then a mysterious event happened that crashed landed the crew. Sorin' survived, the others didn't. Thats when you came into the picture. You found Sorin' and we've been tracking him through Twilight. Unfortunately, we were too busy here to recover you two. That should bring you up to speed." explained Spike.
"My, my sincerest apologies." our colt consoled
"Now we have you, and hey were is Sorin'?"
"He's with the Chief, discussing 'business'" a mare shouted from the back
"Well, that isn't surprising. OK, back to the plans...." Spike went on.
Our mare leaves the room. He looks around the hallway. Strange, no other doors in the hall. So, our colt goes down this hallway and a pony is running down it with a few others. Our colt couldn't make the face out. Just that the mare was red and had a few others with him. The colt finds himself next to an elevator. It was only a down button, so he pressed it. The doors flung open. Not a normal way a elevator door should open. He enters and looks at the button panel.
"Quite many floors. See, I guess 'B' for bottom" he presses B and then the elevator starts to shake as it goes down. " A long ride don'tcha think?" he said to him self. The doors oddly slid open this time. Our colt looks around and sees bombs everywhere.
"B for bombs, a little obvious? Ok, try this again" our colt proceeds into the elevator and then pressed 1. The elevator arrives at one and he gets off. It is a massive glass window paned lobby. It had a mosaic of a book with a unicorn on it on the floor. It was quite dusty. You could see out the windows and see fields of Beehive. Our colt walks up to take the view...
"Odd... I am at 1, but i must be at least 15 levels up..." our colt questioned.
He then looked around this lobby. He found a reception desk... There was a computer, a weird logo on it. It was strange how a computer would be running in this abandoned part of the building. He nuzzles the mouse and it loads up.
"WELCOME! TWILIGHT MAGIC INDUSTRIES!" echoed through the halls and lobby from the computer.
"What in the name of...." our colt was interrupted
"excuse me.. um... can I... help you?" a yellow pegasus mumbled
"Why, yes. You see I am lost and trying to go check outside." our colt questioned
"You... um... can't leave..." denied the pony
"Why not?"
"You, don't know whats out there do you?" answered the pony
"No, and who are you by the way?" qestioned our colt
"I am F-SHY. Well thats what Twi calls me. Call me Fluttershy
"Ok, Fluttershy, whats out there."
"Well, its an illusion. The commander uses her magic to hide whats out there. No one knows why or how. I am second in command and she won't tell me... This 'tower' its fake. I live here in the 'lobby'. Its the last memory of the old world before the rebellion. You see, twi kept this whole place to comemerate her success. Every level you see is a event for her. Its like her mind controls the building, but no one inside."
Twenty Eight
"So, this isn't real?" our colt ask
"Well the world isn't, but we are real. We are just in her game. You see that computer. Thats the only way to the outside world because it is from the out side world. Everything here is just a fantasy of hers. You met Spike right?"
"Yea, the dragon."
"Yes, he is incharge of the 'final solution' preparations. Now that we have you, the plan can be executed."
"Wait why am I important? How do you know who I am."
"I know everything about you, Prince. After you defected from the castle, our plans to kill you were abandoned and my work and study of you... became... pointless..." fluttershy stayed quiet.
"Hey, you alright?" our colt asked concerned
A tear started to come down fluttershy's face. She then wiped her tear with her hoof.
"Thats... when I, when Twi stopped paying... attention to me."
She struggled to say that sentance. She stared into the floor. Our colt was confused of the change of events.
"Umm...?" our colt spoke "Did I do this?"
"No, it was my fault. Its always my fault." She started to talk "I took the operation too slow, could've save hundreds, and, (cough) you would be dead."
"Now I am a little scared?" feared our colt
"Well, it was business. Honestly, if I could have stopped you, we wouldn't have lost our friendship. You were the keystone. If you were killed, the pincess would have lost contol of the crown due to a loss in the family of an outside force causing a new change of power. Your mortal, so it would've been easy. But, I took too long, Rainbow Dash and Pinkie would still be with us." Fluttershy explained "I think Ive said to much... I... Uh... Gotta go."
She flew away into a balcony overlooking the lobby. The elevator door opened.
"YOU! Stop!" Shouted a pony with a vest and hat
The pony ran to our colt with quick speed and tackled our colt to the ground.
"Stop... Who.... Were...." he was trying to catch his breath
"GET YOUR HOOVES OFF ME!" shouted our colt
Chapter Twenty Nine
"YEEE HAWW! YOU GOT SOME MIGHTY FIGHT IN YA!" exclaimed the mysterious colt struggling to contain the prince
"GET... OFF... OF..." (POOF) our colt did something amazing! He made the strange pony disappear. Our colt never used his magic before... "WOW! My word i haven't felt that great since..." He was interrupted
*POOF*
"WHAT? How'd you do that pardner?!" demanded the colt as he magically reappeared in the room
"I, I uh guess, my horn?" guessed our colt...
"BRAEBURN!" shouted a mare by the elevator door
It was twilight! But, how did she know where to find us? Did she send that creepy southern pony after me? What game is she playing...
"Now our training can begin." Twilight said
"Pardon me for asking, but what do you mean?" ask our colt
"Your true purpose has come to light, and now we can begin with our true plans to rule Equestria." Twilight replied
So Twilight and the prince go up the elevator. Wait, where is Braeburn?
"HELP, SHE'S..."
Well anyway, back to our colt. We find ourselves in the throne room. Well, twilight called it that. It was more of a smokey library...
"Royalty is descended down by blood. Only one gets to be the ruler. But each blood relative has the power of immortality." Twilight explained "This also gives them the power to over throw other royal members. Do you see where I am going?" Twilight asked
"I am sorry but no..." replied our colt
"Your a unicorn, you have magic. Powerful magic. Stronger then mine. But Celestia has kept it suppressed and never showed you how to do it. Now you can use your powers against her like she did to Luna. You have the power to banish her or kill her once stripping her of royalty. I am going to take you under my wing and show you the way to unlock your potential." Twilight said
"Well, if it can get her out of the throne, then I will do so." our colt obliged
"Spike! Take him to the chambers for testing." shouted twilight
Spike entered the room. He then went over to the prince and grabbed his hoof. Twilight the looked away and continues working with the other ponied in the throne room. They enter the elevator.
"Listen to me you have to get out of here." Whispered Spike
"What?" asked our colt
"You must listen carefully, this 'testing' is insane. Twilight needs subjects to try to complete her 'portal puzzles' what ever that means. Death is sure to occur. Her plans don't make sense. Just, let me escort you to where you can escape." explained spike
"Why should I trust you?" questioned our colt
"Because I have an alternative plan. More realistic, bringing down the whole organization of Celestia. Just leave and there will be a letter waiting for you in the city of Manehattan where you will meet a wealthy colt named Caesar Gekko. He has the rest of the info and the key to get in the castle walls."
*Ding* the doors open
"This is were you leave prince..." spiked asked
"Wait, how do I..." the door closes rapidly "get there?"
Chapter Thirty
Our colt is ushered out as soon as he gets in. He is now alone. No Rarity, no Sorin'. Now he has to get to a city form a place where he dosen't know where he is. Our colt stands there. Questioning the past events. Should he leave or go. Should he help spike or just continue his own plan. He just stood there. There was a door, the only one in the room. And the exit from this tower. Well, no turning back now. He continues on and opens the door. The brightest light blinded him and he walked out. Then, out of disbelief he was out side a door in a subway station. All that was behind him was a bathroom.
"Well, a little teleporter huh." our colt was in the busy crowd waiting for their train
"I was never here before..."
