Twilight Sparkle: Red Lantern

If Twilight seems OOC let's just say it's the power of the Red Lantern corrupting her!

Twilight being a little hazy decided to take a walk outside. Before leaving she arranged her mane so it would hide the ring since she did not know how to take it off as magic didn't work.

She decided to go to Fluttershy's cottage and saw Fluttershy outside her garden looking like she was crying.

"What's wrong Fluttershy?" asked Twilight concerned.

"Oh Twilight it was dreadful" Fluttershy said trying to hold back her tears "last night I hard sounds in the Everfree Forest, so early this morning I decided to take a look to make sure no animal was hurt and...and...and...SOME POOR CREATURES WERE LYING THERE DEAD! THEY WERE BLEEDING! SOME SORT OF MONSTER KILLED THEM!"

Twilight looked worried and hugged Fluttershy saying "there, there Fluttershy I am sure this monster will not get away with this!"

"He won't!" Fluttershy said drying her tears "if I find the animal responsible I will give it a stern talking to!"

After comforting Fluttershy Twilight decided to head home. She then took out the Power Battery again and used her magic to put it on the table again.

After looking at it the ring on her horn and the Battery began glowing and Twilight then had flashes of last night:

Twilight had just transformed into the Red Lantern uniform and feeling the energy off her she said "I feel incredible!"

She looked at the dangerous wild animals around the forest and grinned wildly.

Using the power of the ring on her horn she created a giant red construct of a Hydra (a mythical dragon with 3 heads) and had it began attacking some of the animals.

Dismissing it she also constructed a red boar which also attacked some of the animals as well.

Finally she constructed 2 giant blades coming out of her arms or top legs and began slicing a few animals as well.

When she was done she was covered in the blood of the animals she killed which was absorbed by her uniform.

"The power...It feels good!" Twilight said and then constructing 2 Pegasus wings she flew up into the sky using a red bubble to carry the Power Battery. She then flew back to the library and went inside and placed the battery on the table.

She then quietly went to the bed and fell down asleep as her uniform disappeared and it would be a few hours before morning.

After the flashes of memory were over she gasped out loud. "I-I-I killed those poor creatures" said Twilight feeling ashamed "what kind of monster am I?"

"It felt good didn't it" said a dark deep voice coming from the battery.

"Are-are you talking to me?" asked Twilight facing the Battery.

"Affirmative" said the voice.

"What are you?" asked Twilight.

"I am a Red Lantern Power Battery sent to find a recruit for the Red Lantern Corp" said the Battery.

"Red Lantern Corp?" asked Twilight confused.

"A force of ring bearers like you who harness the power of rage" said the voice.

"I-I want no part of this!" screamed Twilight.

"You have great rage in your heart Twilight Sparkle" said the voice "its hidden deep within you isn't it?"

The ring on Twilight's horn then glowed and she began to think.

After dealing with Discord she still had stress due to the events what happened with her friends being brainwashed and her almost losing all hope.

She was also had some leftover stress from worrying about missing a week without a friendship report and how her friends had laughed off her concerns.

"There are great rage within you Twilight Sparkle" said the voice "it doesn't to be hidden, it needs to be embraced!"

Twilight looked nervous and put the battery back under her bed. She then went outside and saw Fluttershy walking around with tears in her eyes as she was being comforted by Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Spike, Applejack and Pinkie Pie.

"Don't worry Fluttershy" said Applejack "if we ever see that monster of a critter we will make him pay for hurting those animals!"

"Embrace the Rage" kept echoing in Twilight's head. She then trotted over there and thought "Here goes nothing..."

"WILL YOU STOP CRYING!" shouted Twilight in a tone which surprised even herself. Her friends then gasped.

"Twi you know better than that" scolded Applejack looking angry "Fluttershy is just having a hard time coping with what happened?"

"Well maybe this so called monster didn't know what it was doing" said Twilight getting agitated "maybe it was confused!"

"But the poor animals..." Fluttershy started.

"THEY WERE JUST ANIMALS!" Twilight shouted.

"TWIILIGHT what was gotten into you" Princess Celestia gasped when she floated down from behind them.

"Princess Celestia what are you doing here?" asked Fluttershy.

"I got notice of some evil energy that came here in Ponyville last night" said Princess Celestia "Twilight, what has possessed you to behave like this?"

"Nothing Princess" Twilight responded with a sarcastic tone on the last word "I just had some rage to take care off!"

"Twilight if we can sit and talk I am sure we can focus this rage into something more constructive" said Princess Celestia.

Twilight laughed and said "my raged doesn't need to be focused...IT NEEDS TO BE EMBRACED!"

Twilight then arranged her mane to reveal the Red Power Ring which started glowing along with Twilight's horn and she started floating up in the air.

The other Mane 5, the Princess and Spike gasped.

"How is Twilight doing that?" gasped Rainbow Dash "she's a unicorn, not a Pegasus!"

Twilight then transformed into the uniform she was transformed into the Everfree Forest the previous night.

"One more thing" laughed Twilight "I was that monster that killed those animals!"

Princess Celestia was shocked by this but managed to shake it off just in time to dodge a red blast from Twilight's horn.

"This is gonna be fun" smirked Twilight.

Twilight managed to use a construct lasso and wrapped it around Princess Celestia's neck and started throwing her around like a rag doll before she was able to go free.

Princess Celestia then began dodging the blasts that were coming from Twilight's horn.

Princess Celestia seeing no other often flown up and charged at Twilight and their horn connected into a power struggle.

Thanks to her Red Power Ring strengthening Twilight's magic with red Rage Twilight was able to put up a strong battle against Princess Celestia but due to her inexperience with her newfound power Princess Celestia was able to overpower her and send her to the ground.

Princess Celestia then used her magic to put Twilight in ropes with a magical barrier around her.

Despite what had happened Twilight's friends looked worried.

"Whats going to happen to Twilight" asked Fluttershy "are you going to turn her into stone like we did with Discord?"

"No Fluttershy" Princess Celestia said "I am going to take her back to Canterlot and hopefully we can turn her back to normal and she will be just alright!"

Princess Celestia was then hit by giant red construct of an advanced technological train ramming into her sending her crashing into a building causing her magical barrier to disappear.

The other Mane 5, Spike and everypony who was watching this gasped in shock and horror as flown down was a large bulk humanoid creature with no hair, light red skin with a scar on his cheek and wearing the same Red uniform as Twilight.

He then flew down to Twilight as she freed herself from the ropes.

"Impressive" said the creature smirking "with a little training you could be a valued member of my army!"

"Who are you?" asked Twilight looking scared at the creature looking down onto her.

"I am Atrocitus" said the creature "Master of the Red Lantern Corp and your new boss! What is your name?"

"Twilight Sparkle" Twilight said nervously and Atrocitus smirked.

"Well Twilight if you can pack I can take you back to our HQ at Ysmault to begin your training!"

Twilight then went to the Library and in a suitcase packed most of her stuff including her favourite books, the Red Lantern Power Battery and offer stuff. The Suitcase then went to Twilight's back and constructed itself as a backpack. She then flew back up to Atrocitus.

"Shall we leave?" asked Atrocitus and Twilight nodded.

"You are not taking our friend anywhere!" shouted Rainbow Dash flying up to Atrocitus as fast as she could only to get swatted away pretty easily.

Princess Celestia managed to get up and she along with Twilight's friend gasped in horror and were helpless to do anything as Atrocitus then went away to outer space with Twilight.

There is that chapter? Who do you want paired with Twilight? An OC, Soarin, Big Macintosh, a GL Alien or maybe give it a stretch and have it be Pipsqueak wanting to save Twilight and be her hero (kind of like his role in the fic Discordant feelings).

Next Chapter: 3. Ysmault Estimated time remaining: 9 Minutes
