Ubermensch Anon started as a a single prompt about Anonymous being signed up for the pony triathlon against his will. A couple of green stories later and we have what is basically the ultimate form of man in Equestria. I'm not trying to toot my own horn or brag, so I'll let those unaware of the story read for themselves and decide if they want to get behind the thread. (Not really sure this counts as a general.)

Okay, so it keeps on dying early. Namely I blame Fallout 4 and my own lack of skill to keep a thread alive.

Don't worry I can't play Fallout 4 yet
>>
>>25416943
Goddammit I need to catch up on these but I can't bring myself to since fallout 4 released.
>>
Summary of the story thus far.

> You're Anonymous.
> No-one special; just a depressed loner that was dropped off onto a world you once thought fictional.
> Most stories are about adjusting to the society and its eccentric inhabitants.
> But you had already made your mark.
> And it consisted of ridicule from said inhabitants.
> One day Rainbow Dash tried to sign you up for a Triathlon in a stunt to embarrass you.
> An even gave you time and determination to show her up.
> After a being turned away multiple times you finally meet someone willing to help.
> Iron Will.
> He helps you become what you are today.
> A man who has slammed monsters, solved problems all around Equestria, and beat a god at her own game.

> Which led you to this...
> Everybody has recently become more friendly and caring ever since you've become a bad mofo.
> Which brings up the question.
> If this is all you ever wanted.
> Why is there a small, niggling feeling of everything being so... bland and boring?
>>
>>25416993
I don't blame you one bit Anon.

I'm going to commence writing in an hour, I've got a project to finish.
>>
Before I start I would like to say that if the thread keeps dying I may just quit and update just the pastebin.

Buuuttt... the story will come out a lot slower that way as I will be way less motivated to do anything, I say this not as a threat but because I know myself.

I also don't want to keep getting in peoples hair so I don't know what to do about it.
>>
>>25417699
I don't pay Fallout and enjoy your story. But I'm Europoor and a wageslave so bumps in our night hours may be a bit difficult.
>>
>>25417717
Nah it's good man, I don't want anybody killing themselves over this.

I love writing yeah; but I'm not going to sit here and demand you guys keep the thread alive.

Just whenever you possibly can, in your free time or something throw out a bump or something man, thanks.

My phone doesn't have internet so I can't ego-boost myself for awhile.

Going to start shortly.

> You scrutinize the pristine mare carefully.
"You're joking..."
> "Not at all..."
> Hm...
"And I assume-"
> "I was the kindest..."
> Your eye twitched silently.
"R-repeat that?"
> Zoa sighed and lowered her head.
> "It's true. I may have not realized it before but I showed mercy the most out of my brothers and sisters."
> Looks like they didn't show much mercy considering the way she treated you before.
> "Anon.. they're going to think you're wrong just like me... except this time, they may just destroy you on the spot."
> Well that was wonderful to know.
"Can't you vouch for me or something?"
> "As if they would ever listen to anything I have to say. They're rather pompous, selfish, luxurized, self-righteous-"
> She stopped and regained her composure by clearing her throat.
> "Yes well... you get the point."
> "I know asking you for this is kind of selfish. But you're the only one I can turn to, Luna and Celestia don't stand a chance."
"Hm are we kind of forgetting that uh- Neither do I?"
> "Lies! You've done the impossible time and time again! I know you can-"
"I can't."
> "You can."
> You run a hand down your face; alreayd realizing it was pretty obvious you weren't convincing her otherwise.
"What about the Elements they can take whatever is thrown at them."
> "Not this."
"And as I said before. Neither can I!"
> "Oh, don't be silly Anonymous. It's a known fact that everything thrown your way is-"
> You let your head drop.
> This mare...
>>
> You bring it back up; your hand peeling away from your face with a groan.
> What was that feeling?
> Oh yeah.
> It was anger.
> It was rising...
> Higher and higher...
> Zoa's words of praise melded into one continuous sentence.
> It began to sound akin to a dog scratching at your door.
"Okay! I'll do it!"
> Zoa squealed with delight and clapped her hooves together.
> "Wonderful! I was beginning to think I would just have to do this with her."
> Literally who?
> The sound of a chairs legs screeching across the ground caught your attention.
> You jump from your spot, turning over to see...
> Luna?
"I thought you said she couldn't help?"
> "I may have twisted the truth just a tad bit."
> You squint at her and give a hum of annoyance.
> "Y-You said nopony else could help!" Luna shouted.
> Zoa squirmed in her spot.
> "I may have twisted the truth just a... tad bit..."
> "Really..."
> You throw your face into your hands with a groan of exasperation.
> Great.
> You were about to help Luna and Zoa take on a bunch of gods.
> How much worse could this night get?

> You smack your lips and rub the sleep from your eyes.
> The junior Wonderbolt academy really took it out of you today.
> So many hoops.
> You shuffle into the kitchen and look around.
> Hm...
> Was that Anons blanket on the floor?
> His favorite blanket to be exact.
> You prod at it with your hoof.
> It was.
> Why was his blanke- EW!
> As you lifted the blanket what seemed like millions of tiny, black bugs crawled out from underneath.
> Tons more rested under the blanket, their feelers bobbing up and down.
> You throw the blanket back down and gallop away.
> Somepony else could deal with that!

> You raise your face from your hands.
> Something was wrong with something you owned and it was-
> "And my third complaint is that you came to me FIRST! You said my sister would not be involved in this at all!"
> Luna snorted; dual clouds of steam flaring from her nostrils.
> "Yes well... I kind of need both of you."

> "Yes but I didn't want ANYBODY involved. Forget the exclusion of my sister I wanted to actually do something for once!"
"Wait, you said yes to this just because your sister wasn't involved?"
> "Well... no..."
"Oh my god you did!"
> "Not at all!" A shade of darker blue ran over Luna's cheeks.
> "I did it because Equestria was in trouble!"
"Bull. Admit it, you did it because your sister wasn't going to be involved."
> "Fine! I did so what!?"
> You snap your mouth shut.
> Luna stormed towards you.
> When she got close enough she stuck her face inches from yours.
> "My sister is always; ALWAYS coming up with a plan or calling somepony else to deal with a problem. Not once has she turned to me for help outside of delivering a message or running an errand."
> "I don't even get a chance to shine and she never gives me one. Then her and all of the ponies she sends on these crazy missions get all the praise while I'm stuck in the shadows!"
> Luna stomped her hoof down; the floor cracking from under her.
> "Enough of it! This was supposed to be my moment to shine! Not my sisters! Not the Elements of Harmony, and especially not you!"
> You furrow your brow.
"Especially not me? What issues do you have with me?"
> "Oh like you don't know."
> You get out of the chair and loom over her.
"I don't. Why don't you enlighten me?"
> "Very well... Everything with you always has to be so... 'perfect'. You're what a writer would call a Mary Sue. No matter WHAT happens you always come out fine in the end!"
> You raise one of your brows in confusion.
"And that's bad because..."
> "I've never had that! I heard about the Wendigos last month Anonymous... Do you know what they did when I was corrupted? They threw me millions of miles away from the planet... and you... they just say a bunch of sappy stuff and everything is fine."
> She turned away and pulled a chair out.
> "I'd leave but I can't now... I've already made a promise and my family keeps their word true."

>>
> Zoa silently flicked her eyes back and forth between the two of you.
> She sat on her chair rigidly, her wings unfurled and held out.
> You sit back down; watching Luna the entire time.
> She was trying her best to calm back down; breathing in and out loudly.
> Her inferiority problems were a mess...
> But nothing could be done about that.
> This was something she would have to deal with on her own.
> A brief memory of Iron Will looming over you flashed through your mind.
> The world bobbed as you did push-up after push-up.
> "Come on Anonymous! Fifty more!"
> Despite the pain he was putting you through...
> You were glad someone was helping...
> You snap back to reality.
> You give Luna one last look before turning back to Zoa.
> This must be rather awkward for her considering she was one of the most socially-awkward ponies you had ever met.
"Continue Zoa..."
> Luna grunted in agreement.
> "O-Okay... I have an idea. My brothers and sisters aren't completely heartless, If you two can manage to show them some good in the world they 'may' change their minds."
"And what happens if that doesn't work? A few minutes ago you were all worried about them destroying everything."
> "Then we destroy them first."
> Luna snapped her head up upon hearing this.
> "Are these not your own blood Zoa?"
> "Yes... that is correct. But I've had time to think things over and... if they're not willing to change, then they're more of a threat to Equestria than anything out there."
"Great, so the world depends on us either showing them a good time or fighting them.."
> Wonderful...
> "Yes. It does sound rather silly when you put it that way."
> "Everything sounds silly from his mouth." Luna muttered.
> You glare at her in response.
> Zoa chuckled lightly, folding a wing over her mouth. "That's funny."
> You turn the glare on her.
> "Okay... not so funny."
"Okay, I can get the whole 'I'd rather NOT kill my own family' thing. But why do you need both me and Luna?"
>>
> Zoa sighed heavily. "Would you rather stand in front of tartarus alone or with your friends Anonymous?"
> Was this a rhetorical question?
> Oh well, you would just go ahead and answer anyway.
"Personally, alone. But in order to keep it going. With my friends."
> "Well... you're looking at them right now."
> You turn to Luna; who still refused to look in your direction.
> Wait that meant.
"We're your only friends?"
> Zoa nodded bleakly.
> "Yes. I know that I'm a rather... imposing figure... Celestia doesn't want anything to do with me after my reform, same with the Elements. The only two that have tolerated me are you two."
"Wait. Luna, you're friends with her?"
> Luna turned her head up and muzzle away with a 'hmph'.
> Zoa was the first to speak up. "Y-Yes, she kept in touch with me after the reform... she and I have quite a bit in common."
"Like what?"
> "....."
> "....."
"That's what I thought."
> "Fine we may not have that much in common." Zoa smiled meekly and gave you a bashful glance. "But she and I have managed to set aside our differences and have actual meaningful conversations."
> That was basically friendship.
"Okay. I can buy that..."
> "Great..."
> ....
"Sooo when are they supposed to get here?"
> "Tomorrow morning."
> Wait what.
> "Goodbye Anonymous, be ready."
> Her wings swept over your vision.
> When you they were gone you were back in the kitchen, laying under your blanket.
> Did she really just-
> Oh.
> What is that!?
> You throw up the blanket revealing tons of black bugs writhing underneath.
> FUCKIN' BULLSHI-

> In the deep recesses of space stood nothing.
> No established civilizations.
> No societies.
> Nothing but space debris and a lonely sun.
> Then all of a sudden three forms absorbed in light shot past.
> They were not stars for stars did not hold their quadruped forms.
> Nor the voices inconsistently chatting among themselves.
> They were not to be translated to the naked ear though.
> But they spoke of their home planet.
>>
> You drop the stones into the snow.
> With a 'pomf' they tossed some of the white powder up.
> You stretch and feel your arms.
> You had noticed a lack of strength recently and you needed to get back to the roots.
> You've been getting lazy, and soft.
> That time was over though.
> You trudge through your backyard, ignoring the giant tunnel off in the corner of it.
> When Aggro stopped his hibernation you were plugging the hell out of it and then you would have a wrestling match with him.
> You've been itching for it for a while now.
> You trudge through the back door and stop in the kitchen.
> Removing your aviator you sling it onto the counter.
> You move past the counter and reach up, opening the cabinets.
> You pull out one of the many silver boxes hidden around the place.
> You click open the box and pull out a thick, brown cigar.
> You stick it in your mouth and light it up with the silver lighter.
> Snapping the lighter shut you pocket it and grab your jacket.
> Nobody else was awake yet but Zoa and Luna should be appearing at your doorstep any moment now.
> You move out of the kitchen and come to a stop at your staircase.
> It was somewhere around here...
> You feel a groove on the side of the stairs.
> You hook your fingers under and pull it open.
> A door pulled away in response, a light automatically flickering on in response.
> You reach in and dig past the junk cluttering the small room.
> Broom, bleach, frying pans, magic crystals...
> You stop when you managed to finally find them.
> Fingerless, brown gloves.
> Normally you would call anybody who wore these a plethora of insulting names but you figured out after all the hand injuries you sustained that they were rather useful.
> Especially this pair, you had used them only once before to help lift some rocks that had blocked off a small village.
> That was another story.
> You slip them on and wave your hands around.
> Still felt as if you weren't wearing anything.
>>
> You plop down on your couch and wait.
> And wait...
> Waiting...
> You look at the grandfather clock in the corner of your living room.
> It was almost time for the others to be up, you wanted to get all of this over with as soon as possible...
> As if on queue three knocks echoed at your door.
> You get up instantly; eager to get this whole ordeal over with.
> You throw open the door to be greeted by...
> Luna...
"Uhhh... Where's the other one?"
> "Down here!"
> You peer down.
> Heh...
> Zoa stared back up at you with an expectant look.
> She was the size of an average mare, with a single pair of wings, a white coat and sky blue mane and tail.
> Her ridiculously blue eyes blinked innocently as you craned your head downwards to get a good look at her.
"Why?"
> "Oh! I didn't want to walk around in my real form, it's bad enough Luna is paying a visit to Ponyville."
"I see... though with her here, I doubt we can do this inconspicuously."
> "Already taken care of." Zoa turned back to Luna and gave her a toothy smile.
> Luna rolled her eyes and sighed.
> A white light briefly enveloped your senses.
> Was that a friggen flashbang?
> When you managed to clear the disorientation of your senses you look down to see...
> Dawww....
> A dark blue filly stared back at you silently.
> She blew a strand of her purple mane out of her face.
> "Let's go." She simply said.
"Luna you sound so cute."
> What was this?
> Luna seemed to be biting her cheek, glaring daggers at you as she did so.
> You lean in your doorway; savoring the anger.
> "Let's not forget your disguise." Zoa butted.
> ?

> "Oh Anonymous... you look so adorable." Luna mocked.
"Bite me."
> "Hey, that's no way for the two of you to act!" Zoa shouted back.
"Okay, so how come the two of you get magic disguises while I'm stuck with-"
> You peer your head out of the scratchy donkey costume enveloping your body.
"This!?"
> "Well I think an ass is rather suiting for thee." Luna muttered.
"Kids don't say ass Luna."

that and work but mostly that.

> "Oh but I've earned the right."
"I doubt it. How's those speech lessons going by the way? I think I caught a 'thee' back there hag."
> "Y-You shut thine mouth!"
> "Guys, calm down!" Zoa hissed. "We're getting close to Ponyville!"
"Why am I a donkey any way?"
> "Acutally you're a mule." Zoa corrected.
"Okay... why am I a mule?"
> "We already went over the story Anonymous. I'm the local town harlot from three towns over and you're the unlucky stalli- er mule that got stuck with me. Together we had our bastard child, Woona."
> ....
"I-I honestly have no idea what to say about any of that..."
> "That is definitely older lore Zoa. Nopony does any of those things anymore..."
> "Really?"
"Yes."
> "Yes."
> "I doubt any of that has faded to be honest."
"O-Okay Zoa..."
> "Can you shut it for one second Anon! Anypony can recognize your voice!"
"Oh. I'm sorry 'Woona'. I didn't realize I was being SO LOUD!"
> "Anon!" Zoa grunted.
"I GUESS I CAN JUST KEEP SPEAKING AT THIS OCTAVE THEN! SINCE THE LAST ONE WAS SOOO LOUD!"
> "How do they say it again..." Zoa bought a thoughtful hoof to her chin. "Oh yes. Dude, shut up!"
"Have you been visiting earth again?"
> "Possibly..."
> This mare...
> "Anonymous It would be very much appreciated if you could just act like a mule please."
"Fine..."
> You rear up and send out a buck, nearly catching Luna in the face.
> She jumped away with a shout.
> You whinny and rear back.
> "ANON!" Zoa shouted.
> "That's so racist!" Luna added.
> Eugh...
>>
>>25418895
Nah, like I said to the other guy. I don't blame any of you, I'm a huge fan of Fallout so I'm eager to get it myself.

But aside from homework, school, and work. This story is my top priority right now.

"So why are we even heading into Ponyville anyway? Wouldn't your family be smart enough to appear somewhere other than here?"
> "Yes... and... no."
> Eh?
> "If I know my brothers and sisters well than they are planning on making the biggest entrance possible."
> Oh...
> "Chances are they are touching down in Manehatten."
"So why are we going to Ponyville?"
> "Oh Anon! You're incredibly strong and handsome~"
> Well you were strong, wait what was that last bit?
> "But you can be so thick sometimes!"
> What?
> "Luna and I can't use magic in these forms. I don't have a horn and she's well..."
> You turn back to the pouting filly behind you.
> True...
> "Wait so how are you two going to turn back?"
> "Luna can do it anytime she wants, all she had to do is think about it. I've still got about... until the scheduled nightfall before I change back."
> Ah...
> "In other words we need to make this process last in a single day. Our parents told us the gods were rather impatient..." Luna added.
> Understandable considering every powerful entity was childish.
> Zoa suddenly tripped forwards, letting out a string of curses.
> .... Your point confirmed.
"So why are we heading in again? You never explained."
> Zoa picked herself up with a low sniffle, rubbing her fore-head.
> You roll your eyes and crawl over to her.
> You reach out of the costume and run your hand down her back slowly.
> "T-Thanks Anon... it's been awhile since I've had a scrape..."
"Uh huh..."
> "Anyway..." She cleared her nose again. "We're going to take the train to Manehatten, the station has just opened..."
"Okay and after that?"
> "We wait." Luna muttered trotting past you.
"Kind of hard to be mysterious and cool when you're a kid Luna!"
> A snarl was all you got in response.

> The walk through Ponyville had been rather uneventful.
> Some of the early-birds shot your posse a couple of looks but otherwise brushed it off as strange travelers making their way through the town.

> Strange how well this costume worked.
> Walking on all fours was getting kind of annoying.
> Your large frame would have you stumble and trip at some points.
> But you couldn't drop the guise, as you were sure it would raise too many questions for you guys to get anything done.
> An itchy feeling began to spread over the back of your neck.
> Damn this suit!
> It was bringing you nothing but infernal suffering.
> You make this known by clearing your throat loudly.
> Luna was the first to acknowledge you.
> "What is it this time Anonymous..."
"This thing is itchy."
> "So?"
"Don't you have a spell or something to make it less itchy? I can deal with literally anything else but this."
> "Welp, deal with it. I'm not changing back just to make you slightly more comfortable."
"You're an angry little runt aren't you?"
> "I'll bite you."
> What a weird threat.
"I doubt it Woona. You're just a little kid."
> Luna growled to herself silently.
> "Must you continue to antagonize me with your existence?"
"Do I really antagonize you?"
> "YES!"
> You smile slyly to yourself.
"Good."
> "Shhh! We're at the station!" Zoa was the first to trot up the steps.
> She lead the two of you to the ticket stand.
> A grey stallion with buck teeth and a nub of a horn sat behind the glass.
> "How may I help you mam..." He muttered with a bored tone.
> "I would like three tickets for me Wall Rider, My husband Mullet, and my bastard child Woona."
> Did she really just do that...
> You let your jaw hang in disbelief from under your costume.
> She really did just say all that...
> Luna shared the same look as you, both of you staring at Zoa silently.
> The pony behind the pane of glass suddenly seemed uncomfortable with the situation.
> "Uhm... okay... E-Eighty bits."
> Zoa slammed her hoof down.
> "Eighty bits! Outrageous! I demand to pay for half the price!"
> "I don't really have the power to do that mam."
> "Do you even realize who you are speaking to!? I outta-"
> Luna was the first to react.
>>
> She hopped up and clamped her mouth shut, giving the stallion a loop-sided smile.
> "I'm sowwy! Shwe just hit her noggin'! Wright dad!?"
> Zoa gave the 'filly' holding her mouth shut an angry glare.
> You shrug silently.
> "Yes! See Mister!"
> The ponies eyes flicked back between the exit and you all silently.
> "Isn't that Mule rather... big?"
> Luna turned back to you and cleared her throat.
> "Okay, look here." She turned back to the pony behind the glass, catching him off guard with the sudden change in her tone.
> "We're trying to save the planet from possible anhialiation right now, if thee wishes to stand in between us and our goal we will duel with thee."
> The pony behind the glass opened and shut his mouth repeatedly out of disbelief.
> "H-How about I just pay for you guys too leave... PLEASE!"
> Luna smiled brightly.
> "Works for me Mister!"

"Are you proud of yourselves?"
> Luna quirked an eyebrow.
> Zoa simply flipped through a fashion magazine, 'ooing' and 'ahing' at some pages.
> You pinch the bridge of your nose, the train rattling as you were well on your way towards Manehatten.
"No wonder the two of you got along so easily. You don't even know how to talk to others."
> "Like you're any better." Luna grunted.
> Really?
"What is it this time?"
> Before she could say anything Zoa suddenly butted in.
> "These magazines are exhilarating! Any longer ago and these 'models' would have been priestess for my temples!" Zoa flipped the page; a heavy blush overtaking her cheeks. "Oh that's rather skimpy isn't it..."
> "P-Please put the magazine down..." Luna begged.
> You plop down on the seat across from them, massaging your temples.
> The Elements were less annoying than these two mares.
>>
"Okay..."
> You get out of the seat, both mares trailing you with their eyes.
> "Is something the matter Anonymous?" Zoa put down the magazine.
> You shed the costume; seeing that the train cart was clear save for the three of you.
"How much longer until we reach Manehatten?"
> "Uhh... an hour and a half?"
> "Two hours." Luna simply said.
> She picked up a magazine of her own, struggling with her awkward disguise.
> Good.
"I'm going to go to bed, wake me up when we get there."
> "But wait-"
> You don't even wait for her to finish.
> You were already out the door and in the hallway.
> Four doors lined the small area.
> You go into the closest one on your right and plop down on the bed.
> It held sturdy as you put your weight onto it.
> Hm...
> Strong enough was good enough as Will would say.
> It didn't take long for sleep to overtake you, the mixture of the lack of sleep and this mornings exercises finally catching up to you.

> Three stars hovered above the lush planet below.
> In the strange language they chattered among themselves.
> All at once they began to circle the planet, searching for a suitable place...
> And meanwhile below.
> One of their own disguised as a mare, began to hear their tones.

> BANG BANG BANG!
> You jolt out of the bed, groggily rubbing the sleep from your eyes.
> You sit up; the bed creaking from the shift.
> BANG BANG BANG!
"Uhg. I'm coming!"
> You step off of the bed and lumber over to the door in two steps.
> You throw the door open before it can be abused again.
> An upset earth pony had Zoa and Luna by the scruff of their necks.
> "Are you with these mares?"
"Yes..."
> The earth pony sighed and let them drop.
> "Good thing you're with Anonymous girls. Don't let me catch you at the food service again."
> Without another word he stormed off, leaving the two with you.
> You quirk an eyebrow at the girls.
> "Zoa thought the food was free." Luna simply said.
> "All food is free for the wind goddess!" Zoa declared.
"Uh-huh..."
>>
> You attempt to rub the sleep from your eyes.
> You didn't even want to ask why they had him bring them to you.
> You just wanted a little bit more time in bed.
> You snatch up the two and pull them into the room with you.
> Zoa muttered something while Luna shouted in surprise.
> You toss them on the bed and slip in, trapping Luna between you and Zoa.
> You relax your muscles; the heavy weight keeping the filly trapped.
> "W-What in tartarus!?"
"How much longer?"
> "About an hour and fifteen minutes."
> You snap your eyes closed.
"Wake me then and stay here. Don't cause' any more trouble..."
> You wanted to spew out more instructions but you already found yourself drifting from consciousness.
> And for once it was the good kind of drifting.

I'm stopping on that note tonight. Nothing fancy, I'll update and post the bin soon.

What do you guys want to see in the story? Let me know, I take a majority of suggestions.
>>
http://pastebin.com/JZREiyhi

I will update the thread tomorrow at 8:00 Pm - 9:00 Pm, a little late I know but I work that day.

Also, there's the possibility of this dying tomorrow as well because I have no internet on my phone, I can't bump it myself until I get home for all but twenty minutes.

I'll leave it up to you guys to keep it alive for the time-being, I trust it in the bumpers hands.
>>
Hoh damn already.
>>
>>25419794
Damn, I don't really know what to suggest really. I suppose if anything, I'd like it if Luna either comes out successful at the end of this story arc, and/or makes nice with Anon.

At least at little... Leaving room for easy arguments might help from a writers perspective, so you know, friends who argue a lot.
>>
>>25423060
Heh... give it time Anon.

Anywho, if this thread dies I'm just gonna put the story on hiatus for a month or so and try again later, probably shuffle on over to the AiE thread and work on some prompts and stories over there.

I WOULD move the story over there if it wouldn't eat the thread up, I wanted to keep this story going for a bit to be honest.

Plus I also like hearing speculation about it, so yeah.

I won't throw a fit over this but if this thread dies I'll just put it on hiatus until some people eventually (hopefully) come back from Fallout 4, whatever they have going on, or /trash/
>>
About to leave in a bit. I can still see the thread from my phone but I can't post anything because of the Clover app.

If the thread's alive when I get back, I will instantly churn out some green.

It was a fun ride boys.

zoa realizing if they lose this would be her last chance to cuddle anon would be cute.

the bugs being explained would be nice.

luna coming around would also be nice.

i thought zoe's brother was killed in that tornado challenge?

He dint tell the rest of the people that hung around his house he was leaving?

i have no freaking clue how they are suppose to show them the good part of the world when they can't get along

is the reason they are coming back now linked with zoa no longer in her temple or something?

why come back to destroy the world. and not just rule over it like the old days. or did she mean "destroy everything" metaphorically.

they have temples and followers of their own like zoa did? or was zoa the only one on this planet.

can't think of anything more time for bead
>>
>>25419794
God-tier stuff. No pun intended.
Don't worry about the thread dying, it happens. It doesn't mean we're not interested anymore, we're all still here reading :)

As for suggestions, I say expand the relationship between Anon, Zoa and Luna. They seem perfect together.
>>
>>25423199
I missed two good stories because they were put in AiE and I completely lost track of them. I don't want this to happen to this story.

>> You toss them on the bed and slip in, trapping Luna between you and Zoa.
Wow. Using two goddesses as your personal hugging pillows? Noice.

>>25423311
Cool double dubs.
>>
Boop
>>
>>25419794
I sorta wonder if Anon needs a nemesis.
A Joker-style recurring villain who is the Moriarty to his Sherlock.
Another human might work. Someone who is ruthless and VERY smart, thus creating a brains vs brawn kind of thing. There are a few motivations that come to mind, one being desperation to return home. Another could be hunger for the magic the ponies posses, leading him to attack/kill/do weird things to unicorns or the mane six.
Just spitballing ideas really. I haven't thought it out much but what Luna said about his Mary Sueness is true and a nemesis might help balance him.

Okay, wow. Thanks guys for managing to keep it alive for the time being.

Going to answer a couple questions before I start.

>>25423257
Going to answer them like how you wrote them Anon.

I agree.

I also agree.

Yes, but it was implied she had MANY brothers and sisters.

I imagine at this point it's commonplace if Anon leaves, There was going to be an off-hand comment about it later on.

Exactly. That's the fun part!

:)

Well, yes actually. When I say destroy the world I mean everything the ponies and The show stand for.

That was actually going to be heavily included in this arch.

>>25423311
Yeah that's what I figured, I love writing for you guys so when I say if it dies I'll stop for a bit. I don't say it as a threat (>>25426706 , sorry it came off that way man.) but more so as a 'Oh, let me chill for a bit, dust this off, and try again.'

>>25425181
>>25426206
I looked up a raspberry pi, interesting contraption mate.

>>25426426

> thump...
> You lower the gourd; the Buffalos surrounding you stopping their chant suddenly.
> Thump!
> The fire that you were just dancing around began to die down.
> You snap your head to it; your feathered head dress bouncing along with your motion.
"No!"
> The Buffalo suddenly focused on you.
> One by one sneers began to overtake their faces.

> You rub the sleep out of your eyes.
"What's going on?"

> "Okay, so there was one, tiny detail I've missed."

> "She forgot to tell us that others were looking into the 'gods' return as well." Luna said.
> She balanced on the headboard, examining the small window behind you.
> You slowly fixate your gaze on Zoa.
"Yes... that would have been great information to know earlier."
> You sigh and rub the sleep from your eyes.
"Who else knows?"
> "Uhhh... cults, followers, adventurers who dug deep enough, ponies who possibly studied my culture."
> You found your hands pulled away from your face and a glare fixated on her.
"That's a lot of ponies to forget to mention..."
> "Great. Zoa is an imbecile; we've already established that." Luna grunted.
> She tapped the window.
> THUMP!
> The door bent inwards; throwing a white blur to the ground.
> You roll your eyes and throw the sheet up.
> Already three minutes into consciousness and you're dealing with this.
> You grabbed hold of Lunas currently small frame and toss her onto the bed.
> CRASH!
> Before she could even protest you punch out the window.
"Up you go."
> Without hesitation you throw the 'filly' through the frame.
> You put your hand out for Zoa.

> Oh well, she was fine.
> You think...
> THUMP!
> The door threatened to cave in this time; the splintering sound an indication of its failing integrity.
"Zoa..."
> She looked back between you and the door.
> With a sigh she hopped onto the bed.
> "Be gentle please. A goddess has to keep herself clean at all times."
"Of course."
> You take hold of her and lift her gingerly.

> You move forward and peer your head out of the frame.
> THUMP!
> The train was on a bridge over a large 'lake' that lead out to an endless ocean.

> It disappeared briefly before popping its body back above the water.
> A smaller, blue spec began to make its way towards it.
> CRACK!
> You whirl back around.
> Three ponies in silky, red robes stared at you.
> Well...
> More like grimaced.
> The robes hid their eyes from you, allowing you a better look at their seemingly permanent frowns.
> "Where is she?" The robbed pony leading the trio grunted.
"Who?"
> A small pony that was obviously a mare pushed past the leader.
> "The wind goddess! Her family calls upon her!"
> She tried and failed to mask her voice by lowering it to sound close to a stallion.
> You glance back at your fading window of opportunity.
> If you didn't jump soon you would miss your chance to get out before the cliff.
>>
> Then again.
> You did need to see just how serious this whole situation was...
> And...
> You look back at the broken window.
> That frame would be a tight squeeze.
> Slowly get off of the bed; keeping your hands up the entire time.
> The trio of robed ponies watched silently as you grabbed your coat.
> You had no idea where the mule costume was...
> Slowly you slip it on and stop.
> "What are you doing lesser being." The robbed pony behind the other two grunted.
> He was different from the others, a long white beard on aged lips and a voice to match his nearly ancient grimace.
> You had maybe time for one question.
> Maybe...
"Who are you?"
> The robed leader turned back to the robed elder and the robed mare.
> He muttered something and pointed back to you with a large smile.
> "As if you don't know us." He simply said turning away from them.
> You raise an eyebrow.
"You must not be important enough."
> "H-hey!" The robed mare shouted.
> "Take that back!" The robed elder growled.
> "Relax guys! He's just talking a big game. Alright, before we turn you into a pile of ash and go find the wind goddess we can tell you a little bit about us."
> "We're members of the 'Guild of Pyromancers' and we were sent on a mission to go and greet our lord and master Lord Aithne!"
> You raise an eyebrow.
> That's all you needed to know.
"Thanks."
> The robed leader frowned; this time not as a grimace but as a genuine frown of disappointment.
> "Y-You don't want to know more? History? Morals? Our legacy?"
"Not really no."
> "This guy's kind of a bummer." The robed mare blurted.
> "I concur." The robed elder agreed.
"Did you really just say that?"
> The other two robed figures turned on the robed elder.
> "What?"
" 'I concur.' Really? It would be less pretentious just to say 'I agree.'"
> "Well, I mean either way they know my opinion do they not?"
> "Well- hold on a minute. He's actually got a point, you've been acting kind of high and mighty recently Bonfire." The robed mare agreed.
>>
> "I've been trying to refine myself! Unlike a certain somepony I know."
> "Oh-ho!" The robbed mare stomped her hoof on the ground. "There he goes firing unneeded shots, hey while we're at it how's that cyst on your flank!?"
> "Guys!" The robed leader hissed.
> You smile to yourself.
> Are you glad you just turned a bunch of edgy ponies with the mindset of teens against eachother?
> Hell yes.
> It was just like posting on /mlp/ at home.
> "Ohhhh! Here he comes, trying to step in and save the day!" The robed mare poked the robed leader's chest. "Do some real work and THEN speak to me Crackle!"
> The robed leader grimaced once more.
> "What about you!? You're always lazing around when we're alone, but the second the Headmaster trots in it's 'busy this' and 'busy that'!"
> Their arguing melded into one noise as you folded your arms and watched the scene unfold.
> Oh shit the exit!
> You dip down and grab the bed-frame, going unnoticed by the arguing robed ponies.
> the frame let out and ungodly screech as you ripped it up from the ground, bolts flying in different directions.
> Mattress, frame, blankets, headboard, and all went flying in their direction as you tossed it at them.
> They all shut up instantly; jumping out of the way.
> While they were distracted you turn around and leap forwards.
> You barely made it through the frame, your large body almost getting caught.
> The wind whipped your face as you free-fell towards the water below.
>>
>>25428482
I chuckled heartily.
>>
> As you fell towards the water you couldn't help but remember one thing.
> It was winter...
> You slammed into the water, cold liquid gripping every crevice of your clothing.
> You nearly panicked among the sudden shock of ice water.
> You claw your way to the surface.
> The world suddenly enveloped your sense again, the underwater moans being replaced by the splashing of your frantic arms.
> The train horn went off overhead; drawing your attention.
> It had been a longer fall than you imagined, the train and the pillars holding the bridge making you feel like a germ.
> You briefly caught a glance of one of the robed ponies peering out of the window.
> You chuckle and begin to stroke you way towards the nearest shore-line.
> Which just so happened to be on the right side of the bridge, the way you were headed.
> You paddle your way over to one of the giant concrete pillars holding the railroad up above.
> Algae and dead barnacles clung to the walls of the pillar.
> You paddle around the behemoth and make your way towards the shore.
> This was going to be a long swim...
> Not to mention you still had no idea where Luna and Zoa were.
> You continue to stroke your way towards shore, determined to get out of the water before you froze to death.

> You're Twilight Sparkle.
> And well...
> You've been rather bored recently.
> Nothing interesting was happening today, nothing but busy-work.
> And you loved busy-work as much as the next mare but still...
> You needed something other than this busy-work.
> So you took to repairing an old radio Spike had found.
> You carefully place the notch back into place and slam the back shut.
> With an accomplished smile you use your magic to turn it on for the first time in years.
> "Hello denizens of Equestria!"
> That voice...
> It didn't sound familiar but it held the same... air and haughty distortion of that one Zoa character....
> The transmission cut out briefly.
> You get straight back to work on it.
>>
> You managed to get the radio to work but just simply hitting it.
> Looks like forced co-operation was a good choice sometimes.
> You would have to remember that.
> "-e're very disappointed in you."
> "All of this blasphemy. Friendships with lesser beings, peace among once warring tribes, No more we say! My brothers and sisters are sick of it!"

> Applejack, Applebloom, and Big mac stared at their radio in disbelief.
> "We're sick and tired of hearing about how this planet has achieved true 'happiness' on its own."

> Aloe and Lotus listened carefully as they massaged an unknown ponies back.
> "Well, let me tell you children. We're on our way back, the olden days will be restored!"

> "What's up with the radio?"
> "Ignore it, back too vork!" Photo Finish grunted.

> Shining Armor glared at his radio silently.
> "We're coming back and we're going to bring back the olden days."

> You silently lean back in your chair.
> "The real gods are returning."
> And with that... the message ended.
"S-Spike get ready to take a letter!"

> The water kicked up all around you as you fought your way towards the shore.
> You couldn't make it.
> Be it a flashback or in real time something felt as if it snatched at your leg.
> You think back to the creature from the deep.
> Its webbed hand grabbing at your feet and attempting to pull you back in.
> This memory came along with another headache.
> Uhg...
> Why did it hurt?
> You swim even faster, your muscles pumping to work against the cold and heavy water.
> You close your eyes.
> You needed to get free.
> You pump your limbs even faster.
> Come on!
> Somebody cleared their throat right above you.
> You open your eyes and see Zoa and Luna standing over you.
> You look back to see you were in the shallow part of the water.
> Okay...
> Maybe you were a little more numbed than you thought.
> With an embarrassed cough you pick yourself up and look between the two mares.

DIZAM. just threw her off the bridge into a lake. Her anger must be burning with the force of a million suns.
The mental image of that little blue filly being tossed out of the window off a bridge into a lake made me laugh pretty darn hard


>They meetup. Anon approaches luna trying to apologize and immediately has an aneurysms and collapses. luna says she used her magic to cause it but not to worry. They have a good 10 minutes before that part of his brain dies. Luna proceeds to set there ignoring him and do her nails while anon blubbers and writhes on the ground with half a working face for 9 minutes.

Then later when zoe explains how close it really was on the train Luna maybe, eventually, might feel a little sorry for what she did.

> Maybe you were just a tad bit too into it there.
> A shiver ran up your spin, the cold weather already taking its toll on you.
> Luckily you were on the coast side...
> You think.
> Equestria was only the nations name and judging by the vast horizon of the ocean moving endlessly along you were sure you were on the coast side.
> The shoreline was barely broad enough for you to stand on; let alone the three of you.
> It stretched on in both directions, the rocky wall of the cliffs side looming over you.
"Sooo... we're not going to tell anybody about this right?"
> "You threw me out of a window..." Luna muttered.
> Hey...
> She looked different.
> She was...
> Oh shit she was back to normal.
> Luna pointed her horn down.
> The heavy kick of a spell hit your chest.
> The world flew outwards as you threw your arms out for a grab anything.
> Incredibly cold water shocked your whole body with a loud splash.
> Okay...
> You hold onto your chest gasping for breath.
> That hurt.
> That really hurt.
> "L-Luna! Why did you do that!?"
> "No pony can treat me like him for that long and get away with it!"
> You already began to pick yourself up; your heavy gasps dying down with each heave.
> Was this for real?
> Did you not just save her life?
> You turn a glare on her; your face already burning from the heat of anger.
"I helped you!"
> "You treated me like a ragdoll!"
> "Guys..." Zoa got in between the two of you, standing on the thin line in between the water and the sand.
> "Please don't fight now."
> The water splashed all around you as you shot up.
> You trudge through it; a glare fixated on Luna the entire way.
"What's your problem!?"
> Luna returned your glare with one of her own.
> "My problem!? What about yours!? You're always treating everything like your own personal play toy!"
> "In a thousand years I have never seen anybody so... annoying as you!"
> "Guys..." Zoa muttered; stepping from the water.
> The nip of the cold began to fade away as your anger grew.
>>
"A thousand years huh? Maybe it's just your own ego getting in the way-"
> "Don't you even start about ego's Anon! In fact your ego is so huge that the title 'Ogre' fits you quite well!"
> You furrow your brow.
"A thousand years and you never met anybody as annoying as me huh? Well, I'm pretty sure there's nobody else on the moon Luna."
> Luna's glare turned to an intense glower.
> "What are you implying Anonymous..."
"I'm saying Skippy the rock can't possibly be more bearable than me!"
> Another weight tackled you this time.
> Except instead of a slung spell it was the princess of the night herself.
> "Stop your inconsistent babbling this instant!"
> She flared her wings to full span and pinned your shoulder.
> You scoop up some wet dirt and sling it into her face.
> With a surprised shout she attempted to slap the mud from her face.
> A super-powerful princess taken out by ghetto Guerrilla tactics?
> Glad to know Equestria was in safe hooves.
> You twist your hips; rolling the two of you over where she was on the bottom and you were on the top now.
> You cock your fist back.
> "Anon! Luna!"
> You stop and blink a couple of times.
> What were you doing...
> In your rage fueled stupor you had forgotten completely about the other one.
> Luna glared at you defiantly.
> "Glad to see where you..."
> Her eyes widened as she looked past you.
> "Stand..."
> You trail her gaze; craning your neck to get a look behind you.
> Something you hadn't noticed earlier was the side of the cliff was riddled with large holes.
> Holes filled with cobwebs so large they dwarfed you by comparison.
> Crawling from said holes were giant, albino spiders the size of mini-vans.
> "Sea-spiders!" Zoa shrieked.
> One of the closer ones leapt from its position.
> Its weight landed on you; rolling the two of you off of Luna.
> You struggle against its hairless, smooth body as Zoa shouted something else.
> The spider shrieked in your face; its fangs lifting to reveal a mouth filled with jagged fangs.
>>
> The gleaming white teeth lining its mouth tilted outwards as it scrambled to hold you down.
> It shrieked again, some kind of mucus lined spit slapping onto your face.
> You simply give a shocked look of disgust as the warm surprise decorated your face with a loud 'plop'.
> You briefly heard Luna laughing.
> The spider lifted its two larger fangs up.
> You take the opportunity to shoot your hand under where its neck should be.
> Somehow, you kept it from biting and that worked well enough for you.
> Its eight legs worked tirelessly to free itself from your grip, throwing up sand all around you as it tried to scuttle off.
> You bring your knee up; catching the abdomen.
> The spider squealed.
> You grip the area where its neck is supposed to be harder and bring it forward; headbutting the spider.
> It had been an awkward move, but it had worked none the less.
> The spider screeched and finally broke free from your grip; scampering off into the water.
> It disappeared from sight as soon as it left the shore, the water not even looking remotely disturbed from its exit.
> Oh...
> Sea-spiders...
> Now you understood...
> The others were just now leaping off of the wall.
> Two of them shot for Zoa; while another one scampered towards Luna.
> A pale beam comparable to moonlight burst from Luna's horn.
> The rushing arachnid was down instantly.
> You scramble to pick yourself up.
> Something smaller than the others latched onto your back.
> You reach up and take hold of it, feeling texture like the first spider.
> With a grunt you rip the weight off and throw it into the water; a spider the size of your head giving a surprised squeal.
> You turn back to the others.
> Zoa was already making a beeline down the shore; flapping her wings frantically.
> Why didn't she just take off?
> Oh...
> Salt-water.
> Right.
> Despite the cold water and weather slipping through your clothes you force your body to move.
> Survival was a lot more important than comfort.
>>
> The world bobbed and bounced as you focused on one thing.
> Getting off this shore.
> The cacophony of multiple chitin sliding across rock and multiple creatures chittering filled your ears.
> Just how many of these things were there!?
> Luna passed by overhead; her wings splayed outwards as she darted towards Zoa.
> She flapped them a couple of times than folded them tight suddenly.
> She descended on the galloping white figure.
> When she caught wind and took off again the two of them were headed upwards.
> You skid to a stop.
> Shit.
> You needed to follow after them.
> You leap forward onto the rocky side.
> You don't bother checking the integrity of any of the rocks.
> You just start climbing right there.
> Luckily this area was clear of the spiders but if you didn't hurry and scale this behemoth they would be on you within seconds.

> You shoot a glance upwards.
> Not even halfway there yet.
> It shifted in response to your sudden weight but otherwise held sturdy.
> Right under your feet burst one of the larger spiders.
> It crawled around in its hole to face you; letting out a shriek.
> You simply shoot your boot into its 'face'.
> Its shriek was cut short, the creature rolling backwards and tumbling down the rocky cliff side.

> You managed to catch hold of a ledge, holding yourself up by just one hand.
> The spider was already making its way towards you; clacking its mandibles excitedly.

> In what was comparable to an awkward dance move you roll your hips to the right and bounce off of the cliff-side, your left arm still kept in place.
> You twist your hips to the left; shooting a boot out in unison.
> The resistance of the spider connecting with your foot was satisfying.
> Its body crashed against some of the rocks before rolling to a stop in between an 'L'shaped rock and a hole below.

> One of the spiders arched its thorax over its head, a web slung forth and netted around your back.
> Oh yes.
> CRACK!
> Your ribs hit the rock side first.
> You attempted to put your arms out to break the fall but the webs kept them in place.

> The world rolled around you as multiple dull rocks dished out a beating on your body.
> You slam into what felt like a brick wall.
> You finally came to a stop, the webs torn up from your rough landing.
> You sputter to life.
> You needed to get out of here.
> Now!
> You roll around and grip hold of the sandy shore.
> Digging your fingers into the sand you begin to pull yourself away from the cliff-side.

> You needed to get back in the water.

> You barely made it in before something slammed into your back.
> You let out a pained gasp as the creature on your back clacked its mandibles.
> You barely managed to get out from under it.
> The creature shrieked and reeled back briefly.
> And then a flash of white followed by a bang took your senses.
> You clutched at the ground, feeling not sand but dry, dying grass this time.
> What?
> The tingling sound of magic tickled your ears.
> Your body began to feel warmer, the cold fading as a strange heat dried your clothes.
> The multiple cuts and bruises forming all over your body began to feel better as well.
> You try and turn your head to get a good look at your mystery healer.
> "Stay still. I do not excel at healing magic Anonymous."
> With this, Luna moved into your sight.
> A wavy trail of blue magic ran from the tip of her horn and just past your vision.
> A warm body suddenly pressed against your own.
> "I thought you were done back there!" Zoa hugged you tightly.
> Well you had taken on worse.
> You wave your hand in the air; picking yourself up.
> "You're not fully heal-"
> You put a finger up to silence her.
"Just heat up my clothes and we'll be fine."
> She glared at you briefly before rolling her eyes.
> You pull your hand away and plop down in the middle of the clearing.
> The adrenaline pumping through your veins began to fade, your survival instincts slowly disappearing.
> You close your eyes and enjoy the silence.
"Where are we anyway?"
> Luna hummed thoughtfully. "Judging by the canal we just fought our way out of I'd say we're about... fifteen miles away from Manehatten."
> You groan and fall back, the dead grass fluffing up around you.
> A dulled shock of pain ran up your back briefly.
> Zoa plopped down next to you as well.
> "Don't worry Anonymous! Because we have an idea."
"What is it?"
> "There's a path further down. It follows right along the railroad tracks, if we follow that we should be able to find our way from there."

> Luna stared up at the sky blankly.
> "I'm going to have to revert back to my form. If I'm caught flying up there than it's more than likely to arise some questions."
> "I can lead the way." Zoa blurted. "I think I can see a couple of sky-scrapers from the sky."
> "Alright then. Though be careful following the path Anonymous, Manehatten is on its own island. This forest around us..."
> You look around as she gestured.
> "Is still as dangerous as it can get."
> You get up from the ground and dust some dirt clinging to your pants.
"No problem."
> "I should hope so."
> In a flash of light Luna was in her Woona disguise again.
> "Lead the way."

> "Buckingham Palace."
> "Correct." The burly stallion grunted.
> "Five points."
> The lanky stallion shoveled some more coal into the engine.
> "Okay... I'm.... blue."
> "Rainbow Dash." The burly stallion blurted with a toothy smile, yellow-stained teeth lining his gums.
> "Oh bug off."
> "Just sayin' that mare's got a-"
> The lanky stallion began to stomp his hooves on the ground.
> "LAH!LAH!LAH! I'm not listening!"
> "Alright then."
> The burly stallion shoveled some coal in after the lanky one.
> The two sat in a cramped room with a stack of coal in front of a large furnace.
> They continued to shovel coal into the engines, the train jolting as it roared over the tracks.
> Suddenly the lone steel door burst open; revealing three figures in green robes.

> Two of the robed figures galloped forward.
> The lanky and burly stallion let out a shout, before they were tackled to the ground.
> Silently the green robed ponies knocked their hooves upside their heads.
> The two were out like lights.
> "I want the conductor next. Then find those silly Pyromancers." the lead figure spoke.
> "What about the wind goddess? She was said to be disguised..."
> "She's not here anymore. And not to mention she has Anonymous and some child with her as of late."
> The two robed figures shared a look.

Going to have to stop there for right now. Might be all I can do tonight, in which case that's my own fault if the thread dies and I will make a new one.

Like the last arc this one if taking a while to fully take off but I have some pretty big plans for this one.
>>
As of the Epub/Mobi file that one Anon asked about I have a bootlegged windows so it was hard for me to make one.

Thanks to libre office it should make it a lot easier on me.

Thank you guys.

Youve been getting dubs and dub dubs quite a lot through this thread, witnessed btw. You're wicked cool and really good author. Its a shame i just found you a little before Zoa's trials for anon started. You really have a strong suit for building up suspense/hype while also following through with the delivery. The Epub/Mopi file will be a definite save in my books. Now to stop sucking shaft I'll just leave it off with, "You're pretty good." -N. Snake

I should probably wait until you finish the story to say this but eh its a complement bump

Autistocrat here

Okay, I've been super slow on updating recently and I do not like it.

From now on if I don't get out at least 20 posts of green minimum, I will cut the breaks from my 4 mile run and end them with 20 pushups and 50 crunches, I'm tires of 7 posts a day.

Tomorrow will be a hopefully productive day for the story.

As for other news, the next chapter will introduce a bog thing that /mlp/ is into, but I'll let you guys throw out suggestions for the story, prompts if you will for Ubermensch Anon.

Be it something you want to see or a story, if it works, it will be fit in.

Ignore the grammatical errors, phones man.

Have Luna enter Anon's dreams while he's sleeping at some point. Don't make it the usual rivalry between them either, make them perhaps bond within the dream.

Anon would probably be wise enough not to go to it Seeing what it does to others around him

> Zoa gave a relieved sigh; letting her demeanor drop.
> The suave pony gave her a smile with just a hint of malicious intent.
> "Though I could be lying."
> She didn't even bother to look up from the ground.
> "No more jokes Ishmael." Her voice lowered, going from a light pitched suiting voice for the mare to a mature, demanding voice.
> Something briefly stirred inside of you.
> You ignore it.
> Ishmael shrugged with a sigh.
> "Can't say I miss the 'look at me' attitude sis."
> "Enough." The earth stallion grunted.
> "We came here to take back what was ours and make things right again."
> "Correct!" Aithne shouted. "Let's go already! The human is right there!"
> "Nopony is doing anything." Luna trotted to them hastily.
> "We've come to greet you. Welcome you and show you how things have changed for the better."
> She studied the three silently as they shared incredulous looks.
> Zoa looked on edge, flicking her eyes back between the three and Luna.
> This mare was gonna get herself wrecked.
> You step back from the crowd; all the attention already off of you.
> You backpedal across the street of the plaza; slipping into an alleyway.
> You crouch down and watch from the luckily well-hidden area.
> Whatever they had planned for you sounded far from nice.
> And you didn't feel like fighting gods, let alone three of them.
> Ishmael said something to Luna; a cocky smile spreading across his face.
> Before you knew it; a screeching ball of fire slammed into her.
> The crowd gasped as it ran Luna to the ground.
> The fire dispersed revealing that 'Aithne' mare.
> She and Luna wrestled on the ground as the other three watched.
> Zoa turned and shouted something at her brothers.
> Suddenly some blue bolt of light nicked the back of her head.
> A frost began to run over her as two ponies in green robes galloped up and tackled her down.
> They shouted something incomprehensible and began to trample over her downed body.

> Multiple other robed figures moved among the crowd, headed straight towards the rumble.
> Luna broke away from Aithne with a yell, scurrying to her hooves.
> She whirled around and fired blindly at the lanky mare.
> Aithne gave her a weasel-like smile as she ducked and rolled over them with the grace of a cat.
> Two of the red robed ponies broke from the crowd; charging towards Luna.
> The first one to reach her skidded to a stop.
> It muttered something and a ring of fire suddenly flared up around Luna.
> Luna reared back in surprise.
> And Aithne took the opening...
> She tackled Luna once more; the two rolling comically across the ground.
> The crowd began to disperse, already focused on clearing the area.
> The other two green robed ponies were still trampling on Zoa.
> She briefly hopped up, pushing one of them off with her withers.
> She sent out a buck; catching the one behind her in the face.
> A green blur soared through the air.
> She yelled something at the three.
> BOOM!
> You jumped as a brilliant explosion went off next to her; sending her careening into one of the nearby shops.
> You needed to step in.
> Forget their plans for you.
> This couldn't stand.
> A sharp pain suddenly pierced your side.
> With a shout you go down; gripping at the left side of your hip.
> The hell?
> You pull away the forming frost with a grunt.
> It began to creep around your hand slowly.
> You slam your hand against the ground; shattering the forming shell instantly.
> You whirl around.
> A pony with a light blue coat enveloped in blue robes stepped forwards.
> What was obviously a mare gave you a blatant smile.
> "Hello there Anonymous."
> Forget it!
> End it now and help the others.!
> You just barely made your way towards the mare before she leapt back.
> "Ah ah ah~"
> The doors you hadn't even noticed before suddenly swung open.
> Blue, green, and red robed ponies trotted out silently in single file from the buildings.
> A wall of robed ponies covered the blue pony.
>>
"What is this?"
> The ponies stared at you silently; a collective grimace painted on their muzzles.
> Then at once; they all stepped forward.
> You take a step back.
> They step forward again.
> You step back.
> Forward.
> Back.
> You growl to yourself as they essentially pushed you back towards the plaza.
> This wouldn't do...
> Those robes made it hard to tell what exactly you were dealing with.
> They could all be unicorns for all you know.
> Magic spells being slung into your face from a literal multi-colored wall did not sound appealing to you at all.
> By now they had managed to get you in the street.
> They kept on marching forward silently.
> Then...
> They stopped on the street.
> They suddenly dispersed; forming a circle around the plaza.
> You watch silently as they did so; some galloping to unknown areas of the plaza.
> Something suddenly tapped your feet.
> You glance down to see Zoa's battered form sliding to a halt.
> What...
> You kneel down and take hold of her gently.
> She wasn't dead...
> But she looked way better off before.
> She breathed heavily; bruises lining her entire body.
> You glare up at the two powerful stallions; just a couple feet away from them.
> Ishmael was using his magic to file his hooves silently; a resting bitch face defining his features.
> "What do you think brother? Do I need to start doing this more? I quite like it."
"You!"
> He gave you a sideways glance.
> "Oh yes, the human."
> The earth stallion let out a heavy grunt.
> "He looks rather upset."
> You storm over to the two; all fear and caution to the wind.
> How could they do this to their own sister?
> A beam of blue light connected with your chest.
> The kick was enough to send you to the ground roughly.
> "Stay back meager creature! You're still alive because we allow it."
> You pick yourself up.
> No...
> You push off of the ground; sprinting towards the two.
> Ishmael creased his face in confusion.
> You were going to end them!
> BLIZT!
> You were down.

> You pick yourself up again.
> Something cold was enveloping you...
> You glare down at the forming layer of frost.
> You grunt and rip it off of your body; some of it still fighting against you.
> Ignore it!
> You sprint towards the two again; the world fading around you.
> One thing was all you wanted.
> You hit his smug little face.
> "Stay..."
> A kick and recoil to your shoulder.
> You go tumbling over your own body; slamming into the ground.
> "DOWN!"
> Red...
> Your fist pounded against the ground twice in frustration.
> More!
> You jump up and try again; the world bobbing around as they began to come closer and closer.
> "You-"
> He didn't even get to finish before he sent out another beam.
> You push your shoulder forward.
> The beam slammed into you; briefly halting your progress.
> IGNORE
> You plant your feet into the ground.
> Pushing one hand outwards you begin to cut through the beam.
> IT
> A flurry of snow whipped against your face; presumably from the beam.
> IGNORE IT!
> The icy feeling of frost began to numb your arm.
> IGNORE IT!
> You suddenly push away from the beam in a spin akin to a drunken stupor.
> Crouching low you lead towards him with your upperbody.
> "What the!"
> You come to a stop right in his smug face.
> Throw it all!
> Hurt him!
> You throw a left hook into his face.
> As your fist connected with him what felt like a gush of wind blew across your face.
> Ishmael spun away from your fist; crashing into the ground with a groan.
> The other one!
> CRACK!
> What felt like a train slamming into you sent you soaring through the air.
> The world became a ball of color as you tumble over your own body.
> Each one of your cuts flared with pain in response.
>>
> "You're a strong one human. You were able to actually hurt my brother..."
> His voice sounded like gravel grating across the ground.
> The earth stallion calmly trotted around you; studying you with a certain... stern scrutinization.
> "Yes... if you weren't so packed with emotion you would be perfect."
> He stopped and gave you a once over.
> "So much potential power. But weak just like our sister."
> You didn't respond.
> You couldn't.
> The buck he sent into your chest left you with shallow breath.
> You gasped for air heavily; clawing at the concrete ground to pick yourself up.
> Your body just couldn't find the strength nor the energy right now.
> You drop yourself with a hitched gasp of pain.
> Get up!
> A grunt was all you heard as something hopped up a couple of feet away from you.
> "He hit me!"
> The earth stallion shot Ishmael a simple look.
> "Of course. He is our enemy after all brother."
> "Yeah, yeah whatever." The stallion trotted into view, glaring down at you.
> "I have no idea HOW you did it. But I do not care! My teeth are prim and PROPER, and take a helluva' lot' time to take care of!"
> Your heavy gasps died down; slowly becoming lighter as he talked.
> "I should throw you in tartarus I say! Or perhaps the Void would be better suited, there's a rather hungry fellow in there that would LOVE something like you!"
> "Cho'Gath?" The earth stallion grunted.
> Ishmael hummed with a nod.
"Why."
> The two turned to you with quirked brows.
> "How are you even talking?" The earth stallion questioned; leaning down and examining you closely.
"What is the point..."
> Ishmael gave you a toothy smile.
> "I see you've calmed down a bit. Now that we're past all the physical violence; let's dig into some small talk shall we? Perhaps some philosophy?"
> Good lord, this guy would never shut up.
> "Tell me Human. Our dear sister over there, lying in a puddle of her own tears and what is possibly, most likely blood. Why did she come here?"
>>
> What was he even getting at?
"She caught wind of your arrival. She wanted to come and show you the good of the world."
> You were already peeling yourself off of the ground.
> No way were you letting these two loom over you like they were the bosses.
> Ishmeal peeled back his lips and made a sound like a buzzer stating one was wrong.
> "Nope! Tell me, did it ever occur to your tiny little simian brain to ever ask how she knew? We aren't a hive mind sir, nope not one bit."
> Hitched sobs began to come from the battered body just a couple of feet away from you.
> What was going on?
> "She's trying to play you." The earth stallion grunted.
"We're friends. She wouldn't do that."
> "Oh? Then why are you here?"
> You found yourself reeling back from the question.
> "Why would she willing put her friends in danger?" The earth stallion looked you up and down.
> "You and the night princess. What did she say to even get you to agree."
> Ishmael quirked an eyebrow along with his brothers question.
"A-A suit or armor. Made from some kind of metal that would make me indestructible."
> The earth stallion hummed thoughtfully.
> "And the night princess?"
> As if on queue the girls made their presences known.
> "Come at thee hag!"
> "I'm the hag!? Look at those bags under your eyes!"
> The brothers rolled their eyes.
"She offered... a break from the shadows. Luna is always playing second fiddle."
> "Exactly." The stallion grunted. "She not only throws the two of you in the middle of all of this but she also bribes you... she didn't even bother to ask before hand..."
> The more of this you heard the more sense it was starting to make.
> Why she had come to you and Luna.
> Not because you were her friends but because she believed you could help.
> Otherwise why did she even bother putting up the bargin.
> She was just using you...
> No!
> You steel your resolve.
> You weren't being used.
> You weren't being played.
> You were a friend helping another friend out.
> And that was all.
>>
> Ishmael chuckled silently.
> "Oh look at him. So naive, she's just like us honey."
> He waved a dismissive hoof in a circle.
> "She's not any different, she'll do whatever it takes to do what she wants."
"And how would you even know?"
> "Hmmmm...." Ishmael tapped a hoof to his chin thoughtfully.
> "Maybe because we are the same as her? She is my sister after all."
> He yawned; fanning his hoof in front of his mouth.
> "I'm getting quite tired of all of this small talk. Zoa's bad this, Zoa sucks at that. Let's just eliminate him already."
> You step back from the two.
> What were they going to do?
> Send you home?
> Hah!
> That was a laugh.
> "Do you want the kill? Or is it all mine?"
> Okay...
> Not so much of a laugh anymore.
> "It's all yours brother."
> The earth stallion turned and began to trudge off.
> "I'm going to go and claim the first half of my land back."
> "Ta-ta brother!~"
> He turned back to you with a toothy grin.
> "Let's make this quick shall we? I mean, you're already heart broken no?"
"No." You growl.
> She couldn't be...
> The more you thought about it the more you began to doubt your friendship between the two of you.
> Was she just using you?
> Was she scared of you?
> Was she playing you?
> Ishmael's horn began to glow with a light blue pulse of magic.
> "Goodnight sweet prince~"
> After all you had done.
> You had forgiven her.
> And you really shouldn't have.
> You had done so many things, to keep some fantasy world alive.
> A world that had done nothing but spit in your face.
> And here it was again.
> That spit in the face...
> Something warm hugged against your leg.
> You peer down.
> Zoa clung to your leg pathetically.
> She sniffled and gazed down at the ground; her tears staining the pinkish cement.
> "D-Don't listen to them. I never meant for you to get hurt."
> She snapped her face up to yours.
> Your eyes met...
> Tears poured down her face; snot and mucus trailing down as well.
> She looked like a blubbering toddler.
>>
> With a shaky sob she hugged even tighter.
> "I just thought that my friends could help me! You're the only one who can even bare to be around me! Even when I was at my lowest you forgave me Anon! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!"
> "Shut it!" Ishmael shouted.
> He threw his body down.
> You turned just in time to see the mini-van sized ball of light making its way towards you.
> It tore the cement from the ground as it roared with unmatched power.
> You waited for the mare to let go.
> But she didn't.
> She hugged even tighter; watching the ball make its way towards the two of you.
> “I'm sorry Anon...”
> You gaze down at her one last time before the ball of energy enveloped you.

> Luna ducked under a lick of fire.
> She spread her wings and took to the sky.
> The manic pony bounced after her; each building acting as if it were her own personal spring.
> Luna tucked in her wings; arching downwards through the sky.
> Spreading them again; she crashed through a window.
> Aithne zipped to a stop on top of a building across from her.
> She licked her lips in anticipation.
> She crouched down; her lanky body splayed out across the roof.
> She opened her mouth….
> A column of fire three times the size of her body burst forth; enveloping the entire building.
> After a couple of minutes she snapped her mouth shut, smiling in satisfaction.
> The building which was once a polished white was now blackened and producing and orange glow as the flames popped and cracked.
> Nothing attempted to come forth...
> “That should do it.”
> She turned to trot away but a loud crash caught her attention.
> She turned back…
> And her weasel-like smile was wiped off of her face, replaced with a shocked expression.
> “Impossible...”

Hm. Have Anon survive the magical killing blast and get some sort of magical powers in his own possession?
>>
> Your muscles were stretched.
> Everything pumped like a row of over-worked pistons; focused on one thing.
> With a yell you push against the ball of energy.
> Keeping her safe.
> You held the ball tightly against your body, kept in a vice-like bear hug.
> Something kept it from running you down...
> But you didn't know what.
> Zoa let go of your leg; watching silently.
> At least you think she was watching.
> You were more focused on-
> The ball pulsated; nearly causing your grip to slip.
> HOLD IT!
> You compress your grip with a grunt.
> "How is that even possible..." Ishmael muttered from just beyond to energy.
> Your grip was slipping...
> You couldn't hold it much longer....
> Bits and pieces of concrete hovered around you; the sheer energy tearing the very ground beneath you.
> Slipping...
> You let out a pained groan as it began to slide from your grip.
> No!
> Your heart pounded in your ears.
> Multiple voices began to hover around you.
> Twilight....
> "Look Anon it's nothing personal, it's just... the other ponies... don't really like you..."
> Will...
> "You're nothing right now Anonymous! But I will shape you into the perfect specimen! A replication of me!"
> Scootaloo...
> "Go Anon! You're so cool!"
> Then finally...
> Zoa broke the illusion.
> She shakily got to her hooves; trotting next to the energy.
> "Remember the trials! Remember what you did! You've always put your mind to something and accomplished it! You can't give up! You can't!"
> .....
> .....
> .....
> With a roar you plant your foot into the ground and twist your upper-body.
> The energy ball was slinged upwards and past you; crashing into one of the buildings above.
> It exploded instantly; frost overtaking the blast radius within seconds.
> Your muscles screamed with pain.
> You drop to your knees.
> With a relieved sigh you keel over; resting on your elbows.
> "Well...."
> Ishmael chuckled heartily.
> "Well, well, well."
> His chuckle turned to a full blow laugh.
> "Look at this!"
>>

> You glare at him from your position.
> "Y-You!" He let his laughter overtake his sentence again.
> "Your face! Oh my sweet mother! You-"
> He stamped his hooves on the ground in an applause of approval.
> "You! You're priceless you Mister Dark hero, Mary Sue guy!"
> Another stamp of approval.
> "I say! Jolly good show!"
> You groan; your breath feeling colder than before.
> "WHEW! Bravo! Bravo!"
> "Jolly good!"
"Shut it."
> Your voice sounded... different.
> Like...
> You pick yourself up.
"Shut up!"
> Like when you were dealing with the Wendigos...
> Ishmael snapped his mouth shut.
> Then he smiled again with a snort. "There's something more there..."
> Zoa looked back and forth between the two of you.
> You step forward.
"Shut it!"
> All you could think of was different things you were going to do.
> "Oh! You don't have that right."
> He smiled smugly once again.
> "That was a quarter of my power baby!"
> A warmth ran over your body.
> No...
> A heat.
> You felt as if you were on fire as you stared Ishmael down.
> He gave you a wily smile.
> "But you're not worth it..."
> What was he-
> A sharp pain jolted your side.
> Before you could react something kicked out your knee.
> You drop to the ground.
> A dry heat spread across your face as sparks dotted the air around you.
> Friggen circle of mages!
> "Take him out, the hard way."
> Multiple bodies were on you in seconds; their hooves pounding at your back.
> You curl up into a ball to protect yourself from them.
> Enough...
> You tried reasoning.
> You tried keeping in control.
> You tried being the nice guy.
> You push up suddenly.
> Bodies rag-dolled through the air all around you.
> Some of them screamed in shock as they were pushed away.
> Others just silently accepted their fate.
> You whirl around.
> A blast of magic.
> The kick sent you to the ground.
> You roll out of the way; another blast freezing the spot you once were.
> You get up and sprint towards the first robed ponies you saw.
> A group of three.

Actually I just freaking realized with the unlimited potential we all have to do what we want and turn out fine in the end most of the time. The human race itself is a Mary Sue We just have to get off our lazy buts to do something about stuff

> Didn't even bother seeing what they were.
> You skid to a stop in front of a stray food carriage.
> You reach forward and take hold of the sides of the carriage.

> She turned to you.
> "Anonymous! Isn't this exciting!?"
> You totally shared her enthusiasm...
> She looked at the robed ponies surrounding you and shook her head.

> A nearly invisible pulse slid up her horn.
> All at once the robed ponies dropped; letting out groans of pain.
> "Gravity magic..." Aithne growled.

> "How anti-climatic..."
> "Yeah..." Zoa agreed.
> She began to wobble in place.
> "Agreed." She collapsed as soon as she finished talking.
> The two of you rushed to her side; lifting her from the ground.

> In a barren wasteland; just across from the land known as Equestria a flash of light overtook the heavy dust storm.
> Ishmael and Aithne collapsed from the light; coughing heavily.
> "Idiot!" Aithne hissed. "You couldn't even handle a simple teleportation spell?"
> "You try it after having a slight concussion." He rubbed his temples with his hooves. "Besides, I don't see you doing much. You got your flank kicked by a filthy half-blood."
> "She was stronger than she looked." Aithne growled. "Had a real stomach for war."
> "Uh-huh..." Ishmael grunted.

> "Brother...sister."
> "Ah! This was were you ran off too!" Aithne grunted. "Are you having fun playing 'tom diddle fiddle'!?"
> The earth stallion frowned. "I came to reclaim my land..." He gestured to the barren land around him. "This is all that's left..."

> "CERTAINLY not!" Ishmael agreed.
> A chuckle came from just beyond the dust storm.
> It sounded... distorted.
> "Three powerful figures... defeated by some goody four shoes I presume?" The voice came from all around them.
> "Two shoes... some human managed to get the jump on them." The earth stallion said.
> Ishmael and Aithne shot a glare at him.
> "Ohhhh... Anonymous huh? Yes... he ruined my plans as well."
> "Stop hiding!" Aithne spat.
> "In due time. I see you are all considerably weaker..."
> "Yes..." Ishmael agreed. "Traveling through space will take a lot out of you for the time being... even gods have a set amount of power..."
> The distorted voice chuckled lightly.
> "I've got a shelter for you... but I wish to make a... pact."
> "What pact?" The earth stallion said steadily.
> "More of an alliance really..."
> A thunder cloud formed over them; three Wendigos storming above them.
> Green eyes peered at them from beyond the dust; followed by seemingly endless pairs.
> "An alliance to take down the Elements of Harmony and Anonymous once and for all."

> You sat silently in the restaurant; the events of today steadily flowing back to you.
> After Zoa collapsed the police managed to finally show up.
> Though they didn't have to do anything except for arrest all of the robed ponies; the gods had already ran off to who knows where.
> Luna sipped on her triple chocolate latte loudly; ignoring the ponies giving her stares.
> Zoa rested on your side off the both; leaning against your side silently.
> She was wrapped in a light blue blanket with a mug of coffee in front of her.
> It was a good thing the police let you go after all of that, probably because Luna was there...
>>
> You take a bite out of your bacon; scraping the fork across the eggs.
> Luna quirked an eyebrow while Zoa sighed.
"So..."
> "Yeah..."
"That uh..."
> "Yup.."
"Look-"
> "I'm sorry Anonymous."
> You watch as Luna took another sip of her 'coffee'.
> "I think it was just pent up frustration towards everything. My sister, being stuck in the back, watching all these ponies and you do good while I just sat back and watched. For everything I said earlier I truly am sorry."
> You chuckle and pop another piece of bacon in your mouth.
"I'm sorry too. I knew about your situation and I did nothing but try and piss you off as much as possible."
> You turn to the mare leaning against your shoulder.
"Are you okay?"
> She sighed and pulled away; placing her head on the table.
> "I'll be fine. I should've known that they would have acted this way..."
> You frown.
> "But..."
> She suddenly smiled brightly; popping out of her seat.
> "If I can see the good so can they! I will find them and I will make them see things as I do!"
> You chuckle and shake your head silently.
"Well, I believe you can do it."
> You lean back; dropping your fork on the plate.
> Zoa flicked her head between the two of you.
> "Thank you so much... friends."
> Luna oddly smiled back. "Yes well, it was certainly an adventure."
> You hum in agreement.
"It was better than sitting home with a busted heater all day."
> "Oh!" Zoa turned to you suddenly. "Your suit!"
> You wave a hand in the air dismissively.
"Find a way to destroy it. All of it, no-one should have that much power."
> "But-"
"I helped you because that's what I do..."
> You lean forward and pat her head.
"Especially for friends."
> A heavy blush fell over her cheeks as you pulled your hand away.
> You went back to munching on your meal, you couldn't help but notice Zoa's stare lingering on you out of the corner of your eye.
> "T-Thank you so much..." She muttered.
>>
> You turn to dismiss it but she was already staring at the table bashfully twiddling with her hooves.
> Huh...
> You turn back to Luna.
"How'd you manage to get today's princess duties off by the way?"
> "I didn't."
"What?"
> "I didn't tell anypony where I was going... though my sister must've been worried sick, it's most likely reached her by now that I was here."
"Ah..."
> Your house was used to you coming and going at erratic times.
> Ah...
> The life of an adventurer.
> And celebrity.
> "Did you ever pay that Taxi?" Luna asked.
"Uhhh... no..."
> "Ah..."
> You silently prod at your eggs.
"I don't have money-"
> "I figured."
> You shrug and take a bite of your food.
> All in all today had turned out better than expected.
> No enslavement, no watching the world burn...
> But you couldn't help but feel as if something was wrong.
> Oh well.
> You pop another bite of eggs into your mouth.
> Whatever it was.
> Wouldn't stand a chance.

Hey Autist this may be trivial but it bugs me to high heavens kek

Nice job P.I and checked mate .

>>25464294
You're a good artist. Did you just start? And I'll be messaging you shortly.

I commence writing in an hour or so.

And I didn't forget about the epub/mobi. I just had a bit going on. Chances are I'll make the files and link them randomly on the thread, or somewhere on my pastebin.

I'm also going to move the hunt to another pastebin. As it's going to be a long ass salvage process. (Fucked up the story by letting my autism flow freely) . But hey, if I want to be a good writer you always gotta let your mistakes stay, dust it off, and go at it again.

That's all the news for now.

> Kept you busy for the time being.
> Oh well.
> A shrill sound suddenly jolted you from your thoughts.
> You briefly heard Cheerilee shout something as a stampede of fillies and colts burst from the door.

"Sup."

"Ya'll ready?"

"Have fun girls."
> "W-wait you're just gonna leave us with all these bits?"
"You have your cutiemarks, you're old enough to do whatever."
> They shared a huge grin before galloping off on their own.
> You know.
> You weren't so much focused on the sights so much as the feeling of it all.
> Recently you had been doing nothing but training.
> And not just workouts either.
> You recently took up martial arts, kick-boxing, judo, and wrestling to be exact.
> Mindlessly rushing, tanking, and just throwing around your opposition was not working anymore.
> You needed to know how to use this strength.
> But ignoring that for now.
> You spotted Fluttershy moving among the crowd; smiling as she admired the sights.
"Hey Flutters."
> "Oh! Hey Anon. How have you been?"
"Fine. Have you seen Derpy?"
> She frowned.
> "I can't say I have. Sorry."
> Huh...

> You had different plans.
> You crease your face in thought.
"Don't know..."
> "Oh..."
"Why? Are the others taking part of this?"
> "Oh yes!" Flutters nodded her head eagerly. "Twilight helped the Mayor plan and is helping watch over the event, Rainbow is putting on a show with the Wonderbolts later, Applejack is selling some of her cider-"
"She has cider? In the middle of winter?"
> "Oh, you'd be surprised how many barrels they keep throughout the year."
> Could one even age Cider?

"Neat... what about Pinkie and Rarity?"

> Still nothing.
> Among the rushed speak of the crowd you could hear some of the more outgoing vendors advertising their stuff.
> The stalls in the Town Square were currently over-flowed with citizens and tourists; some of the stalls owners working tirelessly to meet demand.
> Today would have been a good day to do something other than just enjoy it...
> You would keep it in mind for the next year.

> You suddenly bumped into Fluttershy.
> All you got in response was a surprised squeak.
"What is it?"
> You turn down to her.
> But she seemed to be staring forward at something.
> You follow her gaze and stop on...
> You didn't know what it was.
> At some point the two of you had gotten far enough from the town square to come to a halt in front of this gargantuan tent.
> It was decorated with red and yellow strips, Two trumpets the size of bazookas blaring loudly into the sky.

O-oh my such a lovely dubbed thread

You originally intend zoe the have typical princesie ethereal hair or is there any other details you could give to help her stand out from Celestia?

drawfag normal pony zoe when?

Also had an idea. How about a redemption arc for zoa to the ponies of ponyville. Do these gods gain any power from their worshipers? If so could it be more if they were their friends rather than just worshipers? I'm reminded of that old game Black & White.

> A sizable crowd had formed in front of the tent.

> The 'bad boy' crowd if you will.
> You quirk an eyebrow.

> "L-Let's go."

> Bruh...
> A fight that didn't involve possible death of you or everybody you loved.
> PERFECT!

> "Goshdarnit!"
> Wait was that-

> The two stallions running the sign up table smiled cockily.
> "Oh Applejack." The mustached one said.
> "Still mad" the clean shaven one chuckled.
> "About."
> “Your spot I see.” They both finished.
> That was uncanny.
> The Minotaur lumbered back into the tent, disappearing behind the flaps.
> If he was one of the champs...
> Anticipation gripped you.
> AJ shot up from the snow; dusting the white powder off of her hat and coat.
> "Yer gonna regret doing this Flim Flam!"
> "Doing what?" The mustache said.
> "All we simply did was buy this spot out Applejack." Clean-shaven agreed.
> "There was nothing to it." they both finished.
> "Uhm excuse me.. please excuse me... sorry sir..."
> Fluttershy came to your side.
> "Applejack! Are you okay?"

Oh yes. It's kind of a thing that stuck with him after awhile.

Basically the typical princess mane, just more...segmented I think? Basically more realistic to individual strands of hair, but still molded like the princesses if that makes any sense.

"So why is this a thing?"

> "Every year my dear brother Flam and I would go out with our family around this time and get in one big wrestling match."
> "Anything goes!" Flam shouted.
> This seemed to get a rise from the crowd.

> "Ah'm just so sick of mah family working so hard and these two dunderheads come in and just rake everything from us! First they nearly took mah land, then they played Granny!"

"Calm down..."

Call windigos again, Anon. Just do it. Their dishonesty and general shittiness is showing.

> Oh shit.

"You can't just make me your main attraction!"

"You can't use me as the main attraction!"

"I've already got another event planned!"

> NO!

> You would have loved to fight that!
> "And it knew how to wield sword and shield, so that was rather cool. But this is much better; because not only will these ponies pay to see YOU but they will also pay to see all of the others! The food they'll want to buy, the children screaming for the wrestlers. Oh this will be amazing!"
> She turned to Flim and Flam with a large smile.
> "I have one condition."
> The two quirked an eyebrow.
> "You take down the tent and hold this at the edge of the town; there's a large area where we can place down a ring for the time being."
> Really...
> "I want you to double... no triple the price of the tickets. We'll also move some food vendors around that area."

> All you had wanted to do was do a couple of matches; match your strength and go.
> And now you were being thrown around like one of the festivals attractions.
> .....
> You sigh and plop down on a random bench.
> You didn't know how long you had stewed in your own frustration but you didn't care.
> You had already lost Flutters and AJ; not like you even wanted to see AJ.
> Flutters was okay.
> What was this...
> Like the fourth time their selfish nature has screwed you over?
> You lost count after the Triathlon to be honest...
> So...
> That was it then...
> Where was Derpy when you needed her?
> A sound akin to a rushing jet moved by overhead.
> Oh no...
> Not now...
> Why now...
> "Sup Anon!"
> A gust of wind tickled your neck as Dash landed onto the bench next to you.
"Go away..."
> "Wow! You seem kinda upset right now dude. What crawled up your flank?"
> You drop your hand and glare forward.
"I'm just sick and tired of it. At first I loved this life... then it got dull for a bit... now I'm nothing but an attraction... something for others to look at and think 'wow' or 'that's kinda cool'."
> You sigh and let your demeanor drop.
> Why were you telling her all of this?
> Probably because it didn't feel weird telling someone you hate what you really felt.
>>
> You sigh heavily.
"I'm nothing but a fable... something to be looked at and live my ten minutes of glory with the occasional cheap laugh or two. I'm a joke... and I'm not meant to be..."
> You turn to Dash.
"I want to help... but how can I do that if I'm just a story... if I'm not even real?"
> Pause...
> You stop and look around.
> When had you gone to the park?
> You sat on one of the park benches; staring out at the frozen over pond.
"Others have got to help themselves first... that's the first step... they may be inspired by something simple like a picture or a fellow being... but in the end it comes down to how you view your life."
> "Are you okay dude?... you're kind of ranting."
"OF course I'm ranting! Your species preaches friendship and harmony but you don't really understand it. With issues solved in a day you can't."
> You groan and keel over.
> She wouldn't understand.
"And I don't blame you... friendship is harder than it looks... so is becoming... better."
> You turn to her silently.
"But in the end isn't it all worth it?"
> You get up from the bench; lumbering over to the pond.
"Neither of those things are entirely fun... there may be fights you feel like you can't win but it's always so worth it in the end."
> Dash stayed silent.
> She flicked her eyes between you and the sky awkwardly.
> You chuckle and shake your head.
"So why can't you just take the first step and ask what we feel?"
> "W-Well how do you feel right now?"
> .....
> .....
"Go on Dash... go talk to Applejack. You would understand her better anyway."
> Without hesitation she zipped off; leaving you alone once more.

It's not 20 posts but that's all I can do tonight.

Leaving it on a semi-depressing note tonight boys.

I'll be on tomorrow at the regular time. I don't know if I will make this bigger than just a simple 'filler' chapter or if I will make this a completely new arch.

I've got about five more planned, but there will be a hiatus sometime around Thanksgiving.

This chapter may turn out a little shorter than the others.

Damn page 8 already.

It's also about time I start doing my part as well to keep the thread alive but I wouldn't count too much on me boys.

In other news I'll try and get out WAY more tomorrow, I was sluggish today and I didn't like it. (It usually happens in the slower parts of the story.)

> Well....
> You drop the growing existential crises and scratch your chin.
> If they wanted a show you would give them a show.
> You would show them why assumptions were wrong.
> You turn away from the pond.

> You lean back in your chair; sipping on the milkshake in front of you.
> Something was going good at least.
> Derpy sat across from you; smiling as she sipped on her own.
"Yeah... so that's what I'm caught up in."
> Derpy frowned.
> "That's terrible Anon. I didn't realize you felt like that."
"Eh."
> You shrug and loll your head.
> The two of you sat outside of Sugarcube corner at one of the outside tables the Cakes had set up.
> The inside was flooded with residents and tourists alike.
> Pinkie and the Cakes had their work cut-out for them.
> You place your head on your hand.
"And AJ's all PO'd at me for some reason."
> "Weren't you always annoyed with her?"
> You blow some air from your nose.
"Yeah."
> "Eh, if I learned anything it's that some ponies just lash out when they're scared or angry."
"Yeah I know but... she just pushed the right buttons. Saying I was pampered... coming from her. She was right behind Dash on my shit list to be honest."
> Speaking of which you hadn't seen Dash since that whole speech you gave.
> It had been about an hour since it had happened, you had found Derpy not too long after leaving the park.
> Which finding her earlier and not getting involved in this whole fling would've been much better.
> Then you went and found out the Brothers were already setting up near the outskirts of the town, towards the train station.
> The matches would start in another hour.
> Probably for the food stands to be set up.
> What made this even worse that it was really getting advertised, from both the festival populace and the participating-
> "Come and get our town 'Angry Green' milkshakes for only one dollar! In celebration of our big event tonight!"
> The cakes were already making bank off of it.
>>
"Why is this so big anyway?"
> Derpy gasped; her eyes straightening ever so briefly.
> Adorable.
> "You don't know?"
> You raise an eyebrow.
> "Everypony loves a good fight Anon!"
"What? This is wrestling not fighting."
> "Well from what the pamphlet says-"
"There's already a pamphlet!?"
> She was just in the process of pulling it out before you snatched it from her.
> You hold it in front of your face; letting every little detail sink in.
> A colored sketch of you and some species in rather strange tights leaping from a top rope.
> You rip it open.
> It was basically detailing a no holds barred fight, where the only rules were no leaving the ring.
> You lower it and stare at Derpy who smiled back brightly.
> "A no-hold bared fight! With you!" She clapped her hooves together excitedly.
> "I can't wait!"
> But...
> What?
> She stopped when she saw your look of confusion.
> "Oh cheer up Anon! The others don't even stand a chance."
"Why do you like to see fights?"
> Derpy shrugged. "If I remember my history correctly... a thousand years ago-"
> A thousand years.
> Always with the thousand years...
> "When the pegasi, earth ponies, and unicorns were separated they would send in a couple ponies form their tribes ever month."
> "In order to settle disputes over who has what land or who wants this they would have the ponies fight until one was unconscious or submitted, we didn't ever go to war with one another."
> Huh...
> Learn something new everyday.
> "So I don't know if it's just hard-wired in or something. But as long as nopony dies a good fight is nice and enjoyable every once in awhile."
> If only you had known this back home.
> A lot more stuff would have made sense.
"Does that subconscious need for violence ever... influence your decisions?"
> You had to know.
> Derpy tapped a hoof on her chin thoughtfully.
> "Possibly... I did very little psych in college."
> Hmmm....

> You had a theory...
"Is it possible that because of that little, tiny need of violence that's why you're all so eager to get shit done within a day?"
> Derpy raised an eyebrow.
> "Huh?"
> You roll your eyes.
> You weren't usually one to throw this out there but you needed to know.
> Be it from her or somebody else.
"Think about it. Applejack lashed out at me earlier, okay..."
> "Okay."
"She and Rainbow Dash are the most physically active members of their little coupe, is it possible they picked on me because that very, very little voice in the back of their head told them too.... the same one that told them to yell at Gilda instead of setting things straight? The same one that pushes you all to the brink mentally."
> "I don't follow."
> You roll your eyes.
> You loved her but damn.
"Okay... back before they knew Zecora... they were absolutely afraid of her right?"
> "Everypony was afraid."
"Yes! And that's survival instincts right there, something you don't know waltzes into town and hides itself in a robe. You don't develop them unless you need them, look at how skittish and paranoid you ponies are."
> Derpy lowered her brow; seemingly understanding.
"Same with your anger; ya'll are literally the quickest tempered creatures I've ever met."
> "Not me though?"
> You chuckle and pat her head.
"Not you... sorry for going all curious George but I have a theory and I need to know.
> You push your chair out and get up from the table.
> "If what I think is true than I know how to win without even throwing the first punch."
> Derpy quirked a brow.
> "You're an awesome person Anon but even I don't think that's possible."
"Just you watch. Now come on, I heard there's an awesome peanut butter ice cream cup over towards the Old Ponies home."
> You help her from her seat.
> She smiled and followed you without hesitation.
> "Alrighty love muffin~"
> You nearly tripped after hearing that.
> Ignore it...
> Maybe the name won't stick.

> You walk alongside Derpy; the two of you headed for your event.
> The more you thought about your theory the more things started to make sense.
> You hadn't made much sense back at Sugarcube corner but you had basically simplified it in your mind.
> Ponies act all harmonized and friendly.
> Their ancestors did nothing to suppress their disdain for eachother; though they never participated in wars against each other they would send some of their tribes to fight instead.
> The modern ponies suppress this kind of need to see violence, instead following the new social standard set.
> Which is to love everything basically.
> Not really that but you had a thinking process going on.
> It wasn't very often that you got to just think instead of act.
> So back to your theory.
> Your theory was they were still adjusting to the change.
> And subconsciously you triggered a kind of response that just...
> Made them treat you like shit.
> They didn't see you as a resident but more of a visitor of this planet.
> You didn't have a social setting.
> So they didn't need to even bother acting with you.
> And they knew that.
> Good lord...
> They were almost as bad as humans.
> At least they could make peace with other species but that was about it.
> Everything else was irrelevant to them.
> Huh...
> You had a smart.
> "Oh wow!" Derpy gasped.
> You snap out of your thoughts.
> A massive line of eager ponies marched forward slowly.
> The line started in the town and moved towards the outskirts.
> You peer over; seeing a large black 'square' and tons of bleachers off in the distance.
> Ah...
> Just at the start of the line you could see it branch out to a long table; multiple ponies giving the line members tickets after taking their bits.
> A sniffle caught your attention.
>>
> Derpy hadn't noticed but you did.
> You turn your head to the right.
> A white blur moved back behind one of the buildings dotting the area.
> Weird...
> You ignore it and step from the line.
"Come on Derpy."
> You lead her past the line members.
> Some of them glared whenever you walked past but quickly realized who you were and kept quit.
> Feels pretty neat...
> Roughly five minutes of walking and you reached the table.
> You stop in front of a bored looking pink mare.
> Wait a minute...
"You!"
> She looked up at you with an apathetic expression.
> Suddenly her eyes widened.
> "Y-You!" she stammered out.
> Well shit...
> You smile down at her.
"I'm afraid no of the trainers can see you right now."
> You repeat with an over-the-top nazely voice.
> You smile broadly again.
> "S-stop smiling! I lost my job because of you!"
> You frown.
> "Yeah that's right! After they turned you away Bulk Biceps and his trainers began to blame me after you started appearing everywhere."
"Well I'm sorry to hear that..."
> You sigh and throw your hands up.
> "Just take your participation ticket and go... without the mare."
> You turn back to Derpy and shrug.
"Can she at least get in for free?"
> "...Luckily I'm a professional and I won't hold the truth back, she can get in for a reduced price."
"Wonderful!"
> The pink mare tossed you a ticket and you snatched it up from her.
> You turn to wave goodbye at Derpy but she zipped up and pecked you on the cheek.
> "I'll be watching love muffin." She said with a lopsided smile.
> Eugh.
> The name again.
> You turn and move past the table.
> You examine the ticket as you headed towards the giant ring set-up.
> It was a smooth silver; practically shining in the sunlight.
> Interesting.
> You pocket it and slip in through an entrance from under the bleachers.
> Whoa...
>>
> The whole area seemed to just... grow in size when you entered.
> The ground was cleared of any snow around the large white wrestling ring.
> Bright red ropes ran along the side of the ring.
> Up above a large black square hovered in the sky silently.
> It hovered directly over the ring; spotlights, strobe lights, and various other specified lights dotting its bottom.
> The bleachers formed a perfect circle around the large ring.
> Damn...
> The ring itself was about the size of a large house.
> "There you are!"
> A pony dressed in a suit galloped up to you.
> "Come on they're holding the meeting!"
> He led you around the ring; revealing multiple others already here and set up.
> Earth ponies, Pegasi, Unicorns, Minotaurs, Boars, Buffalo...
> You could go on.
> Basically a racially diverse group of things wanting to kick YOUR ass was sitting right in front of you.
> Oh look, they were staring...
"Hello..."
> Some of them shared snickers while most of the others just roughed you up with their eyes.
> Except for that mare in the corner; she seemed to be undressing you with her eyes.
> "Heat check!"
> The bleachers behind the gathered crowd suddenly hummed to life.
> Not seconds later the air around you began to feel warmer than before, coming close to getting rid of the winter feeling and feeling more like a nice autumn day.
> You silently slip into the crowd; getting stares from nearly everybody there.
> The flashier dressed wrestlers were up front, staring at the ring silently.
> Most likely their champs.

> In a burst of pink smoke two figures stood in the ring.
> Flim and Flam.
> They whirled around; throwing their hats into the air.
> "I'm Flim!"
> "And I'm Flam!"
> "And welcome our wonderful contenders to the pre-wrestling pump up!"
> You scan the crowd; searching for any sign of Applejack.
> You stop when you spot her hat peeking over an annoyed looking Griffon.
> Alright then...
> "Now we know you are all so eager to get in on this event!" Flim stated.
> "But we've got some thing to address before the show goes on!" Flam added.
> "First off, we are not responsible for any physical injuries or damage sustained during these matches. You all signed the waver!"
> "Second of all!" Flim pushed his brother out of the way. "Those bleachers are about to be filled within ten minutes; these ponies want a show boys and girls. Give them one!"
> "Fourth of all!" Flam butted back in.
> "Third my dear brother!"
> "Third of all! There are no rules for this match, if you get knocked out it's over!"
> Flim decided to slither back into the spotlight. > "If you leave the ring or get thrown out. Over!!!"
> "And nopony wants to lose, especially with these many ponies watching~"
> A jostle of agreement rose from the crowd.
> "We took everybody's names and made a 'tourny' list if you will."
> "Fights that the Mayor and I went over for that maximum setting of fairness."
> Some ponies dressed in suits began to pass out the papers among the crowd.
> Interesting how all of this was done in two hours...
> When you got your paper you sigh.
> It was set up like some kind of tournament.
> The more fights you won the farther you got until you reached the champ.
> Which surprisingly wasn't you.
> You didn't fight Applejack until just before the champ, which was rather unlikely considering you had to move your way-
> Oh...
> Those two may be snakes in the grass but they were rather brilliant.
> They were going to build hype.
> Have the two of you fight the weaker opponents at first.

Before I continue and get into it.
I forgot to answer your suggestion.

Yeah, something like that did cross my mind to be honest. I have an idea for her though... something... rather... slightly
unpleasant.
>>
> Eventually you would reach the larger opponents than the lesser champs.
> Then finally the two of you were supposed to duke it out.
> It was brilliant but if one little thing went wrong their whole plan would be ruined.
> You felt like AJ realized it too... maybe she would be a little bit more honest.
> As long as some of the opposition didn't throw any fights you were more than happy with what you got.
> You needed actual challenges.
> The next ten minutes had been them going over how the whole thing was going to work.
> You and the others participating would get your own spot in the MASSIVE bleacher section while two of the participants fought in the ring.
> This whole system confused you but it seemed to work for the brothers.
> "Alright! Good luck out there our lucky participants!"
> "Chop! Chop!"
> The crowd broke into a drone of murmurs and whispers as you moved towards the reserved parts of the bleachers.
> When you counted the spots there were Fifty participants in this little marketing ploy.
> Not even counting the champs.
> Damn...
> Tonight would be a long night.
> You found yourself in the third row of bleachers.
> Ironically...
> Right behind Applejack and her big dumb hat.
> You clear your throat.
> AJ jumped briefly and whirled around.
> She folded her muzzle when she saw you.
> "What do you want?"
"Oh I don't know..." You fold your arms and shrug. "Just want to have a good look at your face."
> "Why?"
"Oh, just so I can remember how it looks before it gets re-arranged."
> She let out a bitter laugh.
> "Puh-lease! You!? Taking me!?" She let out another bitter laugh.
> "We'll see if one of these chumps don't take ya' out first!"
> "Hey!" A pegasus stallion shouted from behind you.
> "Oh ya'll are chumps. Ah bet not one of ya know a lick about fightin' outside of them vidya games!"
> A stark white bald pony with bulky glasses and a bold black V cutie mark stood up.
> "Take that back!"
> "Make me!"
> "Hey save it for the matches!" A Minotaur shouted
