Holy Protector Chapter 1
It was midnight in a small city in California and one lone figure was walking down
a street. He walked over to a bench and sat down on it, listening to Die With You
by Blutengel. He closed his eyes, head bobbing to the music.
When the song was finished, he picked up his Mp3 Player and switched the song to Threnody by HATE.
He started headbanging when the feeling of being watched made him look up.
Standing in front of him was a tall man. The man had white slicked back hair and a well kept, rounded beard. He had on a robe of the purest white you could ever imagine.
Kris took off his headphones and asked, trying not to be rude, "What are you looking at, and why are you staring at me?" The man looked sad. He asked Kris, "Why do you listen to songs of hatred? Were you not taught to love?"
Kris asked the man, "Why should I love, huh? I have prayed for that very thing, and no woman, except for my mother and big sister, has shown me any. I cannot find love here. And I have NO power at all except for my choice of entertainment."
The man smiled and said, "You have found favor in heavens eyes. And we were curious to know, do you want power beyond your wildest dreams?"
Kris said, "Oh, yeah... By the way, who are you?" The man identified himself as none other than Michael the Archangel. Kris immediately fell to one knee, saying, "Forgive me, my lord. What do I owe the honor of your presence?"
Michael asked, "Why do you kneel, friend? You know we are to bow to God only."
Kris said, "I kneel before my King, I bow to my God. There is a difference, Mi'lord."
Michael chuckled at that and said, "You may arise, my young friend." Michael placed his glowing hand on Kris's head when he stood and said, "Now receive powers beyond your wildest dreams. And you may also have one wish granted. Choose wisely on your wish. Though I think I know what you are going to ask for, already." Kris then made his wish, "I wish to go to a place where I will find love from I dont care how many, just Love."
An unseen force lifted Kris off his feet slowly as Michael said, "Your wish will be granted, my young friend."
And Kris got encased in a glass bubble and rapidly gained altitude. He was going faster and faster and not even feeling the G-forces going by. He was going faster than the speed of light by now and the sights he saw. Oh, how wondrous! Planets, stars, galaxies. He watched in awe as these sights flew by. And noticed that he was approaching a purple galaxy. And as his little spacecraft penetrated it he approached a planet roughly the same size as Earth. As his craft approached the planet, it got slower and slower. His craft went to a halt and landed gently on the planets surface. And then the bubble faded and disappeared.
When Kris looked around and up, he noticed it was night time. He also noticed he was in a town of some sorts and he started walking through the town. He passed by many houses and other buildings and noticed a tree that also looked like a house. He thought, "That's strange." And he approached it and looked in its windows and noticed a bunch of books.
He thought, "This must be the town's library. If the towns inhabitants are friendly, maybe I could read a couple of books." Kris looked in another window and noticed that the shades were closed. Kris thought, "Hmm, this must be someone's home, too."
He noticed he was feeling a bit drowsy, so he sat down at the foot of the treehouse, library-thingy and got comfortable, and fell asleep. He was awoken to the sounds of whispers, kinda loud ones, too.
He opened his eyes and saw a bunch of horse like things standing around him and staring at him. He smiled and said, "Hello little, horse-things, I won't hurt you."
He was about to get up when one Pink horse-thingie popped up out of nowhere and said in a loud, feminine, squeally voice, "HI, HOW YOU DOING, I'M PINKIE PIE." Kris screamed,and slammed himself against the side of the treehouse-library-thingie, and said, "AAAAAAAAAAAAH, DEMON HORSE.DEMON HOOOOOORSE."
The horse-thing, said, rather humorously indignant, "I'm not a horse, I'm a pony, We are all ponies." Kris said, "Uhh, Ok, AAAAHHH, DEMON PONY."
Another Pony, said in a southern belle accented voice said, "No need to shout, Sugarcube. We mean you no harm. We are just curious, what and who are you?"
Kris said, "I'm a human, and my name is Kristopher, But my friends call me Kris. You may call me Kris, pretty one."
Kris could swear that the pony he had called pretty, had just blushed.
He could not believe it... These ponies could blush. Oh my gosh. He then asked her, "And what is your name, pretty one?"
Placing emphasis on 'pretty' to see if his theory was correct, she blushed even more red. She then said, "U-uh. M-mah name's A-Applejack, sugarcube."
Kris smiled and said, "It's a pleasure meeting you, Applejack, now could you tell me where a nice secluded place would be, like say, by a nice babbling brook is, where no-one will bother me is? I would like to see if I can contact the person who sent me here." Applejack pointed to Kris's right and gave him directions to a nice quiet spot. He thanked her and promised that he would meet more ponies later and explained that what he had to do was important. He followed Applejack's directions and came to the spot just as directed.
He sat down by the waters edge for a while before standing up and saying out loud, "Michael, my lord, can you hear me?"
Michael then appeared before him floating above the water. Kris said, "Good, now can you answer me a few... simple... questions?"
Michael smiled and said, "Yes?" Kris then shouted at the top of his lungs, "ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR BLOOMIN' MIND? WHY AM I HERE? IS THIS A JOKE? HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO FIND LOVE IN THIS PLACE?"
When Kris was finished, he started panting. Michael calmly replied answering each question in a soothing, patient voice, "No, I am NOT out of my mind, I know exactly what I am doing. You are here because you wished to find love. No,this is NOT a joke. And you will find love easily here. In multiple ponies."
Kris was aghast, "Wha?"
Michael chuckled and said, "Yes, Kris you will find love in a few ponies here. Now do you want to learn how to use your powers, or not?"
Kris then said, "Yes, Milord."
Michael said, "One: Stop calling me 'Milord' all the time. Michael is just fine. Two: Let us begin."
Kris nodded and said, "I'm ready."
Michael then said," Very well. I will tell you first what some of you powers are. You can transform into a powerful warrior, real or made up, of your choice, and gain his powers."
Kris said,"Wow, You mean I could turn into Sephiroth and get his strength and powers?"
Michael said, simply, "Yes, only you will be good. Now I will tell you how to use this power. Number One: Picture him in your head." Kris did as told.
"Now concentrate on your transformation and imagine yourself as him."
Kris did that and noticed himself getting taller and saw that he had silver hair and a 7-foot katana in his left hand.
He could feel the power coursing through his veins. He hefted the katana, Masamune and swung it. It cleaved through the air easily. He picked up a nice sized rock, tossed it up in the air with his right hand, and cut the rock cleanly in two as if it were thin air.
Kris noticed that the blade of Masamune did not even have the slightest nick in its blade. Kris marveled at that for a moment, before summoning his wings. Noticed that he had two and not one.
He asked Michael about this and received a reply, "You cannot fly with one wing only. You need a stabilizing agent. So you need two wings. Otherwise it is impossible to fly."
Kris nodded before asking how to revert back to his original form.
Michael answered, "Imagine your old self back."
Kris did and he went back to his old self. Michael taught him how to use telepathy and multikinesis. Kris discovered he could control the elements and even time itself.
Michael declared that the training has concluded for now. Kris thanked him and said goodbye to Michael and sat under a tree by the stream for a while. He sat for what seemed an age, then he started getting homesick.
He thought of his mom and siblings. And his brother-in-law and neice, his big sisters daughter.
He then thought back on his abusive dad and realized that even with all these powers he was powerless now in returning home.
He had no way to contact his mother until a thought occurred to him.
He used telepathy to contact his mother and tell her not to worry.
He said through telepathy, "Hi, Mom." His mother gasped and said out loud, "Who's there?"
Kris said, "Don't speak out loud mother, say it in your head, but, it is me, Kristopher."
She responded in her thoughts, this time in her head, "Where are you?"
Kris said, "In a world with talking ponies that have the ability to blush when complemented."
She asked, "How did you get there?"
Kris explained everything that had happened so far and assured her that he was ok.
She said, "So you are going to find love? ...In a pony?" Kris said, matter-of-factly, "Yup, that is what our lord and savior said. And he said I would find it in more than one pony. He said ponies... Plural. So He granted my wish exactly. I said 'I don't care how many.' So I guess I am getting a harem of ponies. Who they are, I don't know yet. I haven't been here that long."
His Mom nodded and said, "Well I just want you to be happy, I'm not all that happy about it though, but can you answer me one question, please?"
Kris said, "Sure mom, anything."
She then asked, "Why did you leave?"
Kris said, "Because, I wanted the love of a woman and none worth falling in love with were available, I HAD to leave. If I hadn't, I would have been doomed to stay alone forever and ever."
Kris's mom said, "Kris, there is plenty of fish in the sea here, You just have to take time to look."
Kris calmly said, "No mother, there was not any for me. So I found a place more peaceful and perfect for a guy like me. The girls here are more exotic and attractive to me, and its nice here. And with my new powers I am going to protect this place with my life."
Kris's mom broke out in tears and said, "What about me? Who is going to protect me and your little brother? Did you think of that?"
Kris said, "You have the protection of Heaven itself. I have requested that Michael and the rest of the Angels protect my family and extended-family. So you have nothing to worry about, in fact you should be getting you bodyguards any second now."
Through his mother’s ears he heard a knock on his mothers apartments front door. And through her eyes he saw her open the door to be greeted by four burly men. They wore white T-shirts and black jeans.
They said, "Your son has found favor in the eyes of heaven, and he has requested that we protect you from any harm, Only you can see us, anyone trying to harm you will only see what is being done to him or her. You will come to no harm with us, no need to fear."
Kris said to his mother, "See, I told ya ,heh."
Kris's mom said, "Yes, but who will protect my middle son, Kristopher?"
One of the burly men, who are in fact, angels, said, "He can protect himself, but if he, however slim a possibility, fails in protecting himself and those he loves, then half the forces from heaven will descend upon his attacker and rescue and come to his aid."
This seemed to satisfy her enough, because she said in her mind, "Well I hope you know what you are doing, Kristopher, and take really good care of yourself, you hear me?"
Kris smiled and said, "I will mom, Thanks."
They said their farewells and Kris cut off contact with her for now.
Kris smiled and walked back toward the town and started talking to some ponies and enjoyed himself.
Well this is my first MLP:FIM Story. Hope you enjoy it. Please R&R. Please no flames. Thanx.
