Chapter 12: Emerge, The Black Devil!

At the hole that the CMC came out with their robot the Garoozis, two dragon guards are there investigating, they are suspicious as the two spoke the hole with their weapons.

Suddenly some powder got onto the two, the dragons looks confused; Suddenly, one of them gasps as he jumps around, screaming, "No, no, NOT SPIDERS; GET THEM OFF, GET THEM OFF!"

"No, Lorcan, please! Don't kill me! I will never fail again!" The second dragon screams frantically as he fell to the floor whimpering. And yet, nothing appears that are scaring the two dragons at all!

The Resistance shows up, looking amazed as the two dragons are paralyzed with fear by something in their imaginations. Cheerilee ask Zecora, "Zecora, what did you do to them?" The zebra was the one who threw the powder right on them.

"It's my fear powder which will give the target hallucinations of his or her darkest fear that he must confront to be cured of." Zecora explains to Cheeriee making her worried, "Oh, but no worries. I only use the powder on my enemies."

"Weird, for some reason, you did something like that in another lifetime but as a villain, not the nice zebra you really are."

The gang quickly head into the role, the Garoozis led the way. The Resistance looks amazed by the machines that the Flim-Flam brothers have left behind.

"Incredible, these are the Flim-Flam brothers' weapons?" Soarin' ask the Garoozis group eagerly. "Awesome!"

"Yeah," Flitterheart said as she yelps, being freaked out by the face description of the Naga Troopers. "The snake ones look like they need work though."

"But the machines look perfect!" Bon-Bon exclaims as she nods to her roommate Lyra.

"Yeah, we can swipe them and use them for our own!" Pipsqueak explains from inside the machine.

"Quickly, let's do so." Golden Heart insists as the Resistance grabs the machines and try some of them out. It looks like there's no problem too big that they can't handle. "Perfect, we may..."

Suddenly, outside the doors near a window, they see a large shadow (to which it's a ore-beginning of what's happening) just outside Nightmare Moon's castle. Cherry Pie yelps as she asks, "What is that?"

--------------------------------

The scene is showing us the back side of Nightmare Canyon, at this time of the night with a full moon tonight, where all appears to be fine, except for one event.

"Waauugh-aaaaaaaahhh," Yep, the descending screaming ponies falling like a star as they soon land from their out of control blast projectile position onto some snow. Once they themselves landed in the snow, many of the ponies were popping their heads out to gasp for some air while recovering from that surprise event that happened to them.

"Ugh, is everypony alright?" Twilight Sparkle spoke out from looking around to see if her friends were injured or worst.

"Ugh, if by fine, yew mean crashed landed in snow 'dat saved our hides fro' a serious impact, then yeah, sure!" Applejack rubbed her noggin while remarking the fact that the others are all fine and dandy as can be.

"Well, at least this snow's wet vapors can provide the proper cleaning from that filth we've gain from that fight." Rarity spoke from removing some snow off her by sweeping it off and across her fur.

"That was a surprise; I didn't think Pinkie Pie's cannon could blast us all the way here from where we were." Fluttershy spoke in surprise to realize just what had taken place with the group from their pink pony friend's cannon having such unexpected surprises.

"Um, sorry guys, kinda my bad for forgetting that," Pinkie Pie sheepishly exclaimed from seeing that it was kinda her fault that the ponies got shot up to this place without much warning.

"Yeah, that blast was too powerful, that even Pegasus ponies couldn't regain their balance to fly straight." Rainbow Dash spoke off from taking to the air in seeing all around the gang's spot that from where they were going from that shot made it hard for anyone to get out of.

"Wait, where's Ben Mare?" Twilight Sparkle asked from worrying over the fact that Ben Mare, her love, was not with the group upon crash landing.

"Ah reckon he must be further along 'de mountain." Apple Bloom suggested to Twilight in what must have happened that sounded right.

"Then I say we go find him!" Scootaloo declared out with a determined expression that they go out and find Ben Mare.

"But what about what Twilight wanted to do with Boris?" Sweetie Belle reminded the others with worry about Boris who they forgot about.

"Mommy or Miss Sparkle, they're right. What should we do?" The Nyx clone asked a bit confused to Twilight in what can be done. "Go look for the real Nyx's daddy or go back to capture Boris?" The little black filly clone was unsure which choice they would have to go with.

"Sweety, I'm sure we can look for your daddy, even if you are Nyx's clone, and besides, Boris is in no shape to go anywhere." Twilight Sparkle spoke from a gentle tone to the clone of her daughter that they can be sure to look for Ben Mare as they themselves know for a fact that while Boris is down still with no help, they can find their missing friend. Even if the clone is that of her daughter, Twilight cares for her nevertheless. "Although, what Boxco and Dum Dum poured on Boris still has my concerns on alert?" The smart pony stated from thinking over for a second thought in being curious to what happened earlier.

"Please, we got him before, what can that so called…'Red-Devil' pony do next?" Phobos remarked off with a wave off, as in thinking there was nothing to worry about with Boris taken down, right?

"Crumvhmm…" Suddenly, the entire mountain felt a large tremor that shook the entire structure, including those in the castle of Nightmare Moon itself.

"EARTH-QUAAAAKE," Pinkie Pie screamed out in shock while the others were trying to keep their balance to what's going on now.

"How can there be an Earthquake on a mountain?" Rainbow Dash asked from flying up to see that this strange action to happen now was too bizarre.

"Woooh, what's happening Applejack?" Apple Bloom asked her big sister if something serious was going down.

"Ah don't know, but yew fillies stay close to us!" Applejack exclaimed while addressing to Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, Scootaloo and the Nyx clone to stick close to the big ponies.

"How's this happening?" Sweetie Belle asked in not being sure how this was happening to where the ponies are of this sudden Earth shaking feeling.

---------------

Suddenly the fight with Lorcan stops from all of the shaking, they see something truly shocking. Shining exclaims in shock, "Steel Hooves! Are you seeing that?!"

"Eeyup, and I wish I haven't!" Big Macintosh exclaims in alarm and worry.

"Looks like he has done it after all," Lorcan laughs madly, much to the two heroes' concern.

"What? Who did?" Shining demands to Lorcan angrily. This only made the villain smile devilishly.

"Wouldn't you like to know?"

-----------------

During that time someone in the shadows a figure sees what is happening. (She is the one that thrown the dagger at Boris and was the one that send that note to the ponies and that threatening note at Lorcan). Then she says, "It seems this may not be good. I hope the ponies can win. I better get moving."

With that she goes deeper into the shadows until she could no longer be seen.

-------------------

"Ahhh," Rarity screamed out as she and the others watched out for falling boulders made of snow. "Could somepony tell me why a mountain is trying to drop frozen boulders on us?" Rarity asked in a dry remarking tone in not finding what happens to be anything pleasant to experience again.

"How's this happening?" Scootaloo asked in why this had to be happening now, especially since they've never dealt with Earthquakes before.

Then Fluttershy saw lots of crows flying away from the forest and by the sounds of their calls were all frighten.

"Something of this unnatural feeling is scaring the animals away. I can feel it from hearing their cries, something isn't right." Fluttershy spoke out with much concern and worry from sensing something was wrong, the animals are running from…something that's coming.

"Well of course anything would be scared, but this shaking couldn't do all that! Right," Twilight Sparkle noted that while the Earthquake could scare some animals out of their homes to avoid danger, but feeling danger approaching from something else couldn't be right or could it?

"Eeeep; Woohh-Oooh; HIiiiyh," Suddenly, Pinkie Pie was acting out strangely from some unknown movements and sounds, all of which caught some attention. This got everyone to worry in knowing this was the infamous 'Pinkie Sense' that never steered them wrong of what unexpected thing may show up.

"Oh great, Pinkie's senses are going up!" Applejack slapped her forehead in seeing what the pink pony was doing, with this shaking Earth, it could only be more bad news.

"But that usually means something is going to happen, doesn't it?" The Nyx clone asked off in recalling what Pinkie Pie's Pinkie Sense is supposed to do.

Suddenly as the pink pony stopped, she felt her surroundings and heard something off in the distance…and it was a low tune…rumble.

"What the," Pinkie Pie responded in feeling something was really off about now but it just got weirder. "Cruvhm-cruvhmm…" As the boulders were falling from above the ponies' heads, the pink pony nearly yelped in hearing…a musical theme of sinister evil, "Oh my goodness! It's the Baby Bowser theme from Yoshi's Island!"

"Ah, come again there Pinkie? Wooh," Rainbow Dash tried to ask with a skeptical face before the pink pony grabbed and shook her like a panicky kid holding a rag doll.

"THAT'S IT! MY PINKIE SENSE IS SAYING BIG TROUBLE OF THE MASSIVELY KIND IS COMING!" Pinkie Pie shouted out from shaking Rainbow Dash enough to have the dare-devil pony's eyes be swirling around from all the shaking.

"Pinkie; what's coming?" Twilight Sparkle asked in a forceful gentle tone in wanting her friend to say what's wrong with a clear statement that they can follow.

Suddenly, the pink pony with wide scared eyes just did the one thing she could. "THAT! HIIIIIM," Pinkie Pie pointed in stating something over the horizon of their spot, closer to where the gang last where at.

Soon the falling boulders from the mountain had ceased just as the ponies looked in front of them to see…something from within the shadows of the ground beginning to…be seen by the eyes. It appeared to be a pony of an alicorn kind from the wings and horn, but with very much pitch, blacken fur coat, spike-mane and long flat tail of a dark silver color, and those clear full blank glowing eyes that glowed in the dark. What was truly freaky was that the body standing on its back legs with clawed toes, arms revealed that the hooves were now neon-yellow claws; even the back looked to have grown out a dark/gray spiky-shell with yellow spikes shown pointing out. The scary still was the pony muzzle looking more dragon's jaw, having two spike horns curved back over behind the head and the entire body layout appeared more humanoid with more muscle mass and scaly like a dragon. But what was the really BIG scary deal was how tall this creature was, he was a 1,000, no 2,000, no wait, 5,000, no….by far rising up to 10,000 FEET! This colossus titan rose up from the shadowy fields, and from his standard appearance…he seemed almost familiar to be…but even that seem impossible? Or could it…?

"Sweet Apple Acres," Applejack let out a gasp of shock in seeing the mere size of this creature was bigger than anything ever saw.

"Is…is that…Boris?" Twilight Sparkle exclaimed in terror, that couldn't be it, Boris was never something like…'that' before.

"Did he…have a growth-spurt?" Fluttershy muttered with much frighten tone in her voice in staring up at what can only be described as…a nightmare comes true.

"I say yeah, from being a Red-Devil to a Black-Devil!" Phobos spoke with such overly shocked expression that even he never expected this outcome.

Suddenly, as Boris, now called as the Black Devil, stood high above from his height from his cease growth; Even though he seem big from a very far view of where the ponies looking at him was, Boris was far bigger when he comes up closer. Practically everyone from nearly all over Equestria can see this colossus titan for miles around even from Ponyville seeing something was in the Nightmare Canyon. And then suddenly, the music started to pick up the beat, and when that usually happens, it means…the troubles are just getting started.

"RUUU-ROOOUURRRAAARRRROOGH," Boris let out a monstrous roar that shook the very ground and from his mightily gust of humongous wings, blown all the large boulders off the ground into the air.

"AAAHHHHHHH……HE'S A BEAST!" Rarity screamed out in terror, this was one side of Boris that no one wished to even see.

"He's HUGE!" Scootaloo screamed out in wide eyes in seeing how tall Boris was, he could looked to have touched the top of the clouds if they weren't so far from seeing a different side.

"He looks real mean!" Sweetie Belle stated out with concerns, with how Boris has become, who's to say he's not going to really be upset for what the gang has done to him?

"He's making everything in Equestria shake! Wohohoho," Apple Bloom exclaimed from the wobbling feeling under her hooves as she and the others tried to get a solid firm on the ground.

Soon Boris cease his roaring as he looked before him was where the back of Nightmare Canyon was and were some heroes were station in seeing this beast's action.

"Wooh; INCOMING!" Rainbow Dash yelped to dash over near the 3 CMC Fillies direction and for good reasons too.

"CRUSH!" Without warning, a boulder crashed down that broke a portion of the mountain's side where those that got out of the way made it out unscratched.

"LOOK OUT!" Fluttershy shouted in shock as she saw another boulder heading towards Phobos & the Nyx clone who looked up in blank expression in not knowing what to do.

"CRUSH!" Then a second boulder fell from the next spot over those in danger but those that got out had just barely got a close shave there.

"He can make it rain boulders from the sky!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed out in shock to believe that some pony can actually do a trick like that. "Even I never picture that happening!" The pink pony stated out that never before, has it ever rained ROCKS, base to her knowledge.

But if that wasn't terrible enough, Boris, as the new Black Devil, was slowly beginning to move his way towards the mountain.

"He's coming this way!" The Nyx clone stated to the group of Boris movement and he's trying to make an approach to their side.

"Twilight;wWhat's gone an' done happen 'ta him?" Applejack looked to her smart friend for possibly having an answer to what has made Boris changed, even more so then before.

"I'm not sure, but whatever that potion he was in contact with turn him into something larger, stronger and almost more…dragon-hybrid." Twilight Sparkle looked to be having some serious major thinking about the situation; this was something truly unexpected in what's happened in Boris's case.

"Eeep; you mean he's become a…Dragon Pony?" Fluttershy yelped in terror in imagining such a thing to come true. She was afraid of big, large, scary adult dragons while Spike & Phobos were the acceptance, but to realize that there can be one that's more related to a pony and is something of a hybrid species, it's too much!

"Ain't nothing! Let's not forget Rainbow's own creation Metal Iron the Invincible!" Rarity points out Rainbow's creation Metal Iron the Invincible.

"Who said I want to even though I have to slay him? Poor dragon," Rainbow said, knowing how she must slay her own creation during the fused incident.

"You let him out, remember?"

"Can't prove anything!"

"More or less, but it seem that whatever spell did this to Boris robbed him of all of his intelligence to become nothing but a rampaging beast without having any second thoughts of its actions." Twilight Sparkle explained to her friends in noticing how much change Boris is behaving. Unlike the last time, when he was the Red Devil, at least then 'some' intelligence was there, but this Black Devil, it's nothing but empty means of destruction.

"Like he wasn't smart or just a rampaging beast before," Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes off in exclaiming the remark about Boris being anything but some of those things.

"Rainbow; now might be a bad time to insult him at…such a tall state." Rarity spoke a bit nervous, seeing that with Boris towering over all, any words heard might trigger the beast to come after them.

Then suddenly, Boris the Black Devil stopped form moving for moment without warning, "RUU-ROOOUURRAAARRROOOGH!" As he opened his mouth to roar, without warning, something of a bright orange color was fired off heading towards the gang.

"WATCH OUT! HE'S ATTACKING!" Applejack warned before she and the other ponies duck away before that fireball passed over their side and luckily missed a portion of the mountain which they were on right now.

"He's shooting fireballs from his mouth?" Rainbow Dash snapped in annoyance, now Boris can do something like that?

"That guy's really an insult to dragons, copying our moves to breath fire!" Phobos complained with a frown in seeing someone was mimicking dragons, of all the nerves.

"RUU-ROOOUURRAAARRROOOGH," Then Boris opened his mouth again and shot another fireball at the gang.

"Here it comes!" Fluttershy shouted before she and the others duck away to the left to just barely escape another shot.

"I think we're agitating him, Phobos!" Sweetie Belle stated with a nervous expression in what Phobos might have done was makes it worst by agitating the large bad guy.

"Then again, heh-heh, what's wrong with wanting to be a dragon anyway?" Phobos sheepishly chuckled in tapping his claws together in seeing, he may have indeed cause Boris the Black Devil to be more agitated by his words.

"RUU-ROOOUURRAAARRROOOGH," Boris repeated the step of opening his mouth to unleash another fireball towards the ponies.

"Duck now!" Pinkie Pie shouted before the group split into two separate sides that just pass off the last shot coming in the middle.

"CLASH!" That shot ended up bashing against the snow and melting it into liquid form which dripped down the mountain.

"Hot…hot…even from the cold snow, that fireball's making the water too hot to touch." Scootaloo yelped from feeling a slight splash of the vapor water passing by her hooves.

"Then we gotta keep away fro' it!" Apple Bloom held her left hoof to keep her friend from going near the hot water.

Then the gang was feeling tremor quakes and noticed Boris's slow moment to come ever closer to where they are. He looked to be almost 25% away from where they are but at the rate he's going, they'll have to stop him before he gets any closer.

"Girls, this is bad." Twilight stated from serious expression seen on her face in seeing what's happening. "At the rate Boris is walking, what took a day or two to travel will take Boris almost 10 minutes before he reaches this spot!" The smart pony exclaimed in theorizing that from the Black Devil's size, one step could easily save Boris a lot of time to approach their place, even at a slow pace.

"But…what will happen if he comes between this mountain," Fluttershy asked in fearing that the results of that answer may not satisfy her one bit.

"At that size and strength, he'll literally just crash through!" Twilight explained that from Boris's size matter, he'll be able to tear down even a mountain.

"But that would bring down all of Nightmare Canyon...even Canterlot once he goes through to the other side and heads over there!" Phobos exclaimed in fearing the thought that if the mountain goes, so does Nightmare Canyon, Canterlot and all Equestrian citizens. "And if he doesn't stop, he'll head for Ponyville and flatten it with ease!" The Moon Dragon stated in realizing more to the horror story, is that after Canterlot would be Ponyville on Boris's path he's going by.

"Which is why we need to stop Boris before he gets too close to this side of the mountain," Twilight Sparkle declared with a determine expression that she and her friends have to stop Boris from getting so much as an inch or foot away from reaching this mountain.

"I got this!" Pinkie Pie declared out as she brought out her Party Cannon once more, getting it to aim.

"Pinkie, Ah doubt 'dat cannon will leave any dent in 'dat colossus jerk's body like 'de last time." Applejack stated to her friend in seeing that while that cannon maybe useful, it can't possibly take done a super size devil pony, can it?

"Nope," Pinkie Pie shook her head with a smile expression before showing a special dial setting on her cannon. "This time, I've set a dial to a special Anti-Magic Mode! It's a little new setting I've just got to help in tough times when dealing with magic enemies lately!" True to those words, Pinkie's cannon had a special 'Anti-Matter Magic Mode' away from the normal party settings.

"Anti-magic," Twilight Sparkle repeated before a smile was coming on her face. "Pinkie Pie, that's it! You're a genius!" The smart pony exclaimed in joy that what Pinkie Pie had brought up was pure genius of an idea.

"She is?" Rarity responded surprised that out of all things, the pink pony had an idea that was declared a good one.

"Boris's new form is a shroud of magic that's giving him all this strength, if we can find the right weak points, that'll shatter his form!" Twilight theorized an idea that if the heroines and Moon Dragon hit the right spots, they'll weaken Boris's new form enough that the titan of terror will fall.

"Now I just hope I can aim! Easy…easy…." Pinkie Pie was stating from trying to aim her cannon from an up, down or middle position to lock onto Boris's form.

"Oh boy, to fire from such a long way is gonna be hard even by Pinkie Pie's standard abilities." Rainbow Dash slapped her left hoof on her head to sigh in seeing this may take a miracle for them to get Boris when he maybe big, but he's very far away.

Then suddenly, Boris the Black Devil stopped from moving for moment which signaled something for the gang, "RUU-ROOOUURRAAARRROOOGH!" Boris opened his mouth to unleash another fireball heading for the gang.

"He's attacking before us!" The Nyx clone shouted from noticing what was heading for the gang now and they weren't ready yet.

"FIRE," Pinkie Pie shouted off before pulling the trigger to her party cannon from getting an aim angle, "BOOM!" The pink pony fired a shot, but the moment it got hit by the fireball was burned to a crisp. "Oops? Guess I shouldn't have aimed at those fireballs." The pink pony sheepishly stated that part of stopping the fireballs seem to have got burned, literally.

"Well hopefully this round will work." Phobos prayed in feeling that if the gang doesn't get a hit soon, they'll be toasted, or even worst crushed.

"Give it some time and help me aim." Pinkie Pie stated to Phobos in helping the pony aim her cannon well enough to get a lock-on.

"RUU-ROOOUURRAAARRROOOGH," Then Boris raised opens his mouth again to fire another fireball towards the gang on the mountain.

"Watch it folks!" Applejack pushed Pinkie Pie, Phobos and the cannon out of the way from the left side of their spot before that fireball missed them.

"Nice save, sis!" Apple Bloom complimented her big sister for the save of their pals.

"Uh-oh; He's preparing another attack!" Fluttershy gasped in worry in seeing Boris still hasn't slow down his pace.

"RUUU-ROOOUURRAAARRROOOGH," Then Boris opened his mouth again and fired another fireball shot, but the pink pony wasn't budging to escape or flee when locking on a target.

"TAKE THIS!" Pinkie Pie shouted out as she locked and loaded her cannon before pulling the trigger, "BOOM!" Pinkie Pie fired another shot from her cannon just before dodging the enemy's shot, which missed the fireball and the impact landed near Boris's left leg by a tiny bright explosive impact.

But even so, Boris was now making his slow tremor making quakes to get close to the gang. From the distance, he looked to be 35% away from where they are, the villain's gotten a good pace but the gang have to keep this Black Devil away from crushing them and their homes.

"That didn't even phase him!" Scotaloo expressed in shock that's the first hit that the gang get on the enemy and he barely felt it.

"Oh my, either that spot was too dense to pierce or that was the wrong weak point!" Rarity gasped in feeling worried about which was which at the state of the situation.

"And he's still coming!" Sweetie Belle warned from seeing how much Boris was looking bigger the more closer that he was getting to their spot.

"Not for long, I got him! FIRING NUMBER TWO," Pinkie Pie snapped with a serious determination as she took a quick loaded cannon, pulled the trigger with all her might, "BOOM!" Pinkie Pie fired another shot from her cannon with a changed angle position of how she aimed her attack a little higher at Boris's closing in space.

Then suddenly, Boris the Black Devil stopped from moving for a moment which signaled a known routine to the gang, "RUU-ROOOUURRAAARRROOOGH!" Boris was opening his mouth, preparing to attack with another fireball except…without knowing it, Pinkie Pie's shot impacted the beast right below the jaw, "Gru-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh!" That caused a surprise to Boris as not only did he glow a bit bright yellow of something magically was seen from that shot injuring him, even shockingly enough, it was knocking him back a few extra paces back, now backed away to about 15% away from reaching the good guys.

"Alright; that knocked Boris back!" Rainbow Dash pumped her two front hooves in to lash out in seeing some results in their favor.

"Wait! Look at the reaction Boris is showing!" Twilight Sparkle spoke with concerns, something was happening with Boris now.

But then Boris cease his movement of trembling backwards from being hurt by pain and looked ticked off. Then what happened was that the Black Devil ended up fastening his pace to slow himself down up to about 30% away from reaching the mountain side.

"Uh-oh; Looks like he double time 'de effort fro' being knocked back," Applejack yelped in noticing how much the Black Devil pony was picking up where it lost track of its pace.

"And he looks really mad!" The Nyx clone state in noticing that from that first injury that the gang gave Boris, he seems to be in a tiny mood.

Then suddenly, Boris the Black Devil stopped from moving for a moment which signaled what's coming next, "RUU-ROOOUURRAAARRROOOGH!" He opened his mouth to once more, fire off another fireball at the gang before him.

"Yeeowch," Unfortunately, Rainbow Dash wasn't fast enough and some bit of the flames got her from above that knock her off balance.

"Rainbow," Fluttershy yelped out to see her friend in danger of falling and raced down to save her.

"Fluttershy; Watch out! He's firing again!" Apple Bloom shouted in seeing Boris acting up another sign of attacking again.

"RUUU-ROOOUURRAAARRROOOGH," Then Boris opened his mouth again and fired another fireball shot directly at the two Pegasus, but luckily, it missed them just barely to scratch off a portion of the mountain.

"Hurry, I can't concentrate while thinking that my friends are in danger!" Pinkie Pie cried out in worry, she can't aim her cannon while her mind is randomly busy and this distraction counts for something, a friend in danger.

"Almost…" Fluttershy was diving as fast as she could; she was nearly at Rainbow Dash.

"RUUU-ROOOUURRAAARRROOOGH," Then Boris opened his mouth again and fired another fireball shot in aiming to get the two flying targets.

"Gotcha; Woooh," Fluttershy stated from grabbing Rainbow but yelped to duck away before that fireball impacted against one part of the mountain that chipped away some rocks.

"Few…that was close." Phobos sighed in relief to see that Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash made it out without getting hit by those fireballs.

But even so forth the quick effort, Boris was now making his slow tremor making quakes to get close to the gang. From the distance, he was now at a rate of 40% closer to where he was reaching the mountain; the gang are getting near shorter time here.

"Come on, come, gotta get ready again!" Pinkie Pie was fiddling with her cannon to get it ready from using a lot of shots but she has to aim better to get better effect results.

"Ugh, even from hitting Boris with Pinkie's Party Cannon, it's not enough!" Rarity sighed in seeing that the gang need something else to assist them, one weapon strong enough to give damage isn't enough to secure their win here.

"I think I have a move to help!" Twilight Sparkle stated in getting everyone's attention on her with a determined expression in what she may have that can help.

"What is it, Twi?" Applejack asked in wondering what her friend might have that could help them turn this around from getting any uglier.

"The Unicorn Burst," Twilight Sparkle declared out with a serious face as the others gasped in realizing what she said was a surprise to them. They all knew that was a powerful spell that Twilight learned and its piercing power is so strong, it takes a lot of a group of unicorns to perform and it's class of handling has only been done by those of the Royal Pony Sisters.

"Ugh, but the last time you tried it, Boris avoided that attack!" Rainbow Dash reminded that the last time Twilight used that move, it missed Boris's horn and that was when the Devil Pony himself had used stolen speed from her.

"But wasn't he red before changing to black?" Fluttershy spoke puzzled in remembering the time Boris become a Devil Pony was during the Demon Pony event.

"Precisely, Boris at the time had brains to get out of the way, this time however…he's too slow and is more focus on destroying everything in his path." Twilight Sparkle responded in telling her friends the difference now from back then. "With enough time girls, I can create that spell and aim it at a weak spot to hopefully pierce it." The smart pony stated out that with enough time, she hopes to hit a weak spot moment of Boris to finally beat him for good.

"Hopefully; why does that sound more of doubt?" Phobos repeated with a raised eyebrow expression as in not liking the sound of what he heard right.

"Just trust me, it'll work! It has to!" Twilight Sparkle stated off in demand that she has to make the spell in question work, there's no other way. Soon the purple unicorn held her horn out as she was performing the same stance, gathering much magical glow of energy into that one spot on her horn, but all she needs now…is some time to perfect and unleash it.

Then suddenly, Boris the Black Devil stopped from moving for a moment which signaled what's coming next, "RUU-ROOOUURRAAARRROOOGH!" He opened his mouth to fire off another fireball at the gang while they were distracted by their chats of a battle plan.

"Oh, don't think we're caught off guard, mister super-duper-enormous meany-pants! FIRE THREE!" Pinkie Pie snapped off at Boris for thinking that the gang were unprepared, but she responded by aiming and pulling her cannon's trigger, "BOOM!" Pinkie Pie fired another shot, but thanks to that earlier fireball, her aim was off and her shot only made a tiny dent below the enemy's right leg. "Darn! Missed a direct aim," The pink pony cursed in blaming what caused her to fail the shot that looked perfect but was off.

"Nevermind 'dat, Ah'll help ya out!" Applejack remarked off to come over to help her friend get her cannon ready to fire again at Boris.

"RUUU-ROOOUURRAAARRROOOGH," Then Boris opened his mouth again and fired another fireball shot towards the gang once more.

"Watch out!" The CMC shouted, but luckily Applejack's quick moves got her, Pinkie Pie and the cannon out of that fireball's impact against more of the mountain that melted more snow.

"If this keeps up, there won't be any snow left to preserve some for the hot seasons!" Phobos exclaimed form seeing how much damage things are happening from this and it's still not over.

"RUUU-ROOOUURRAAARRROOOGH," Then Boris opened his mouth again and fired another fireball shot just as the pink pony got her cannon loaded.

"Ready, aim..." Pinkie Pie aimed carefully, as the enemy's shot came closer until she and the rest dodged it just in time. "FIRE FOUR!" The pink pony shouted off before quickly pulling the trigger to fire her cannon again after aiming, "BOOM!" The next shot was fired off in hopes of slowing the enemy down, but again, the aim was off that it only grazed his belly. "Awww, give a pony a break here!" Pinkie moaned in seeing that didn't go as planned at all, not one bit.

"We need to get a better aim spot!" Scotaloo stated in thinking that the gang gotta hurry and find a spot where they can aim better.

"Try 'dis side Pinkie Pie!" Apple Bloom pointed to a good middle spot that seemed about right to use.

"Maybe you'll get the target this round!" Sweetie Belle stated with a concerning hope that the CMC's friend can get a shot in this time around.

"Thanks fillies, I'm counting on it!" Pinkie Pie nods with a smile for the thanks before trying to get herself set up to aim at the target.

But as of such a attempt to stop the behemoth, Boris was now making his slow tremor making quakes to get close to the gang. He was now reaching at a rate of 50% at how close he himself was, he's halfway there and just seeing the size of such a beast is not pouting confidence in the others' heads.

"Quick Pinkie, the shot," The Nyx clone shouted but noticed that the pink pony was gazing at the enemy from how much closer Boris got.

"Oh-oh, right; FIRE FIVE!" Pinkie Pie yelped by surprise to pull her act together last second as she then shouted out from pulling another time's a dozen on her trigger rope, "BOOM!" Of course if Pinkie Pie paid attention, she noticed that from being pledged by fear of Boris's size that she herself fired too low that the shot hit the ground, "Oopsie!" The pink pony sheepishly exclaimed in seeing that one missed.

"Pinkie, don't let his size get 'ta ya, aim a little higher!" Applejack snapped her friend out of being scared silly just cause of how huge Boris is now.

Then suddenly, Boris the Black Devil stopped from moving for a moment which signaled what's coming next, "RUU-ROOOUURRAAARRROOOGH!" He opened his mouth to fire off another fireball at the gang distracted by his size.

"Watch out!" Fluttershy shouted as she raced in to get the Earth Ponies and the cannon out of danger from that fireball impacting the mountain's middle part which caused some rocks to break a bit.

"RUUU-ROOOUURRAAARRROOOGH," Then Boris opened his mouth again and fired another fireball shot towards the gang right during the aiming of Pinkie's next shot.

"Settle...settle…HOLD FIRE!" Pinkie Pie was stating from locking but she and the others dodged another fireball that missed them from getting away in time. "Okay! Settle now. Settle…" Pinkie was aiming as best she could; getting the angle just right was the key.

"Hurry Pinkie, here comes another!" Rainbow Dash flew over to her friend to point in seeing that Boris is on his way for another fireball launch attack.

"RUUU-ROOOUURRAAARRROOOGH," Then Boris opened his mouth again this time and fired another fireball shot towards the gang just as the dare-devil pony warned.

"FIRE SIX!" Pinkie Pie shouted out with sheer determination in her eyes before pulling the trigger rope to the cannon hard, "BOOM!" At that moment, her cannon fired the shot at the perfect moment over Boris's attack, just as the gang managed to dodge the fireball impacting their spot in time.

But as for that cannon shot, it made a mark on Boris's snot side of his face. "Gru-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh," That caught him by surprise as not only did he glow a bit bright yellow from the magically shot injuring him, but once again, this caused this giant foe to back away from being knocked more steps backwards to about 30% away from reaching the gang.

"Hooray for Pinkie Pie!!" The CMC cheered for Pinkie Pie managing to give damage to Boris the Black Devil that was backing away from them finally.

"Aw shucks! It was nothing!" Pinkie Pie waved off with a smile in seeing the little cheering that she was getting for her effort.

"Nothing's right on the money, take another look see!" Phobos remarked off to say from pointing out back at Boris for another look see.

But then Boris cease his movement of trembling backwards from being hurt by pain and looked ticked off again as the Black Devil ended up fastening his pace to slow himself down up to about 50% away from reaching the mountain side.

"Here he comes again!" Phobos cried out with wide eyes in seeing that this beast was still being stubborn enough to come after them.

"Twilight, tell me that spell is up about now?" Rarity asked in seeing that with things happening around here, that 'Unicorn Burst' spell could sure be handy right about now.

"Nghn…no…need more time." Twilight Sparkle groaned between her words through her teeth. She was concentrating a lot of magical energy into her horn, as this time, she was trying to 'really' strengthen the attack against something of Boris's 'new' caliber.

Just then, Boris froze from where he stands with another movement to go with, "RUUU-ROOOUURRAAARRROOOGH!" Boris opened his mouth to fire another fireball shot right at the gang.

"Oh no you don't; FIRE SEVEN!" Pinkie Pie shouted in snapping at the beast about to attack, but this pony pulled the trigger way sooner, "BOOM!" The next shot was fired directly over Boris's fireball which the gang managed to escape from taking any hits while the attack scorched the left side of the mountain.

"RUUU-ROOOUURRAAARRROOOGH," Boris was preparing for another fireball attack, except for not noticing how well aim that shot by the pink pony impacted his jaw, "Gru-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh!" That caught him by surprise during another siege attack, as not only did he glow a bit bright yellow from the magically shot injuring him but once again caused this behemoth to back away from being knocked more steps backwards to about 20% away from reaching the gang.

"My word, he's gone further back now before he even knew it!" Rarity spoke in surprise to see that shot Pinkie did helped them from more of a close shave.

"Oh, but look what's about to happen!" Fluttershy spoke from noticing something else was starting to happen with Boris.

Just as the movement cease for Boris, the gang was expecting the guy to come charging up to get them like before…but he seem…still.

"Did he just stop?" Rainbow Dash asked with a surprised expression that the monster coming for them cease movement.

"Whah; is it over?" Twilight Sparkle asked from still focusing on her spell but looked up to see something different was happening here.

"I don't think so, Mommy." The Nyx clone stated from having a bad feeling in what's coming next from this act.

"RUUU-ROOOUURRAAARRROOOGH," Boris let out a monstrous roar that shook the very ground and from his mightily gust of humongous wings blown all the large boulders off the ground into the air.

"He's causing another Earth shaking roar like before, everypony get ready!" Applejack held near the CMC in fearing that whatever Boris was planning was the same trick he's done before.

"Then he's right open for an attack! FIRE EIGHT!" Pinkie Pie declared in what she'll do, took aim carefully and then pulled the trigger rope to fire her shot, "BOOM!" But as the pink pony fired that shot, she failed to add in for the range of how far the target was and it hit the bottom ground, "Aw nuts!" The pink pony cursed her luck; the enemy was too far that she forgot to adjust the setting degree.

Soon Boris cease his roaring as he looked before him was where the Canterlot direction was and where some annoying heroes were station in trying to stop him.

"Wooh; INCOMING," Rainbow Dash yelped from pushing the too frozen Twilight out of danger from something falling above.

"CRUSH!" Without warning, a boulder crashed down that broke a portion of the mountain's side where those that got out of the way made it out unscratched.

"LOOK OUT!" Fluttershy shouted from seeing that where Pinkie Pie stood was in danger, so she rushed over quickly.

"CRUSH!" Then a second boulder fell from the next spot over those in danger, but those that got out had just barely got a close shave there.

But if that wasn't terrible enough, Boris, as the new Black Devil, was slowly beginning to move his way towards the mountain.

"He's moving, hugh! Waaaugh," Rarity spoke from noticing the action but yelped from one more boulder before vanishing by teleportation to escape.

"CRUSH!" And the third boulder fell down that broke off another section of the mountain even if the gang managed to avoid it, those that can't fly were running low on ground footing or hoofing for their balance.

Even worst off then before, Boris was moving up even FASTER from the lost pace from being shot back and was reaching up to his 50% rate.

"We're running out of room and Boris is coming up faster then we can count our fingers!" Phobos yelped from where he stood, a lot of ground support on the mountain's flooring was busted up and now much of the gang standing was having a harder time to move around easily.

"Then it's time for another score to settle! FIRE NINE!" Pinkie Pie declared out as she quickly had her cannon aim closely up for the charging Boris before pulling the trigger rope, "BOOM!" The cannon fired another shot while the Black Devil was charging to pick up the lost pace distance without seeing something coming he didn't have time to dodge.

"Gru-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh," That caught Boris by surprise during another siege attack, as not only did he glow a bit bright yellow from the magically shot injuring him but once again caused this behemoth to back away from being knocked more steps backwards to about 20% away from reaching the gang.

"Yes! Nice move Pinkie Pie!" Rainbow Dash pumped out a left hoof in congratulating her friend on a nice aim work.

"But 'dat still hasn't got him yet, looky there!" Applejack warned out her friends in noticing what's happening next.

But then Boris cease his movement of trembling backwards from being hurt by pain and looked ticked off again as the Black Devil ended up fastening his pace in reaching the mountain side up near 50% rate again.

"Not if I have a say about it! FIRE TEN!" Pinkie Pie declared out with a determined expression as she aimed her cannon to pull the trigger rope once more, "BOOM!" The shot fired out and was heading towards Boris except…it went straight over his head and missed even by an inch of his horn, "Oh no! Too high," The pink pony yelped in seeing that she got carried away and didn't aim correctly that time.

Soon Boris was slowing down, but only this time, he was now up to reaching the mountain by 70% rate.

"Look at him!" Sweetie Belle gasped in witnessing how much closer Boris is then from being halfway here.

"He's really looking big now!" Apple Bloom responded in shock, the others are trying so hard, but Boris is very close about now.

"Too big for his own good," Scotaloo remarked off in exclaiming that Boris, being a bad guy, was getting too big and full of himself.

Then suddenly, Boris the Black Devil stopped from moving for a moment which signaled what's coming next, "RUU-ROOOUURRAAARRROOOGH!" He opened his mouth to fire off another fireball at the gang at such closeness.

"FIRE ELEVEN!" Pinkie Pie was in a real hurry and just pulled the trigger to hit the beast, "BOOM!" The shot was fired just as she had to dodge away from that fireball that came to scorching her, but worst yet, her shot went over Boris's head. "Oh come on! Not another misfire!" The pink pony complained in seeing that she missed again and Boris himself is really getting close now.

"Pinkie Pie, aim carefully," Twilight Sparkle shouted to her friend to be careful when aiming, nothing to low or too high or the shots won't help much.

"RUUU-ROOOUURRAAARRROOOGH," Then Boris opened his mouth again and fired another fireball shot towards the gang in the middle.

"Hang on Twilight!" Applejack shouted from where she roped Twilight's body while it was focusing and pulled her away from where the fireball created would head.

"FIRE TWELVE!" Pinkie Pie aimed her cannon and then pulled the trigger rope again to hit the giant beast before them, "BOOM!" After firing, the pink pony got out from that fireball imploding from her spot, but the shot was missed below Boris's right leg side and didn't work on hurting him. "Uh don't be jinxing me! Pretty please," The pink pony complained in seeing that even after dodging the villain's attack, she missed hitting the creep again.

"Easy Pinkie, you still have time, okay!" The Nyx clone tried to calm her friend that she still has more chances to slow and defeat Boris, but not by rushing, but by being patient.

But even so forth the quick effort, Boris was now making his slow tremor making quakes to get close to the gang. From the distance, he was now at a rate of 75 to 80% closer to where he was reaching the mountain, the gang had to pick up the pace now.

"Oh man, if he gets any closer, then…well you know! Any luck, Twilight?" Phobos yelped in seeing that Boris was coming closer, the gang have to stop him; he looks to Twilight if her spell is finally done yet.

"I'm…still working on it." Twilight Sparkle spoke from her struggles, but from the sharp glowing effect of her horn, she seemed almost ready now but still needed more time.

"FIRE THIRTEEN!" Pinkie Pie shouted from aiming her cannon and took aim before pulling the trigger rope against the colossus beast, "BOOM!" The shot with the cannon was too much pointing up and it went over Boris the Black Devil's head while he stomps ever closer. "Oh, I guess that is an unlucky number!" Pinkie Pie cursed under her breath in getting the unlucky number of all things to mess up that shot.

Just then, Boris froze from where he stands with another movement to go with after reaching 85% rate of his destination, "RUUU-ROOOUURRAAARRROOOGH!" He opened his mouth to fire another fireball shot right at the gang that was over near the right side of the mountain.

"Dodge everypony!" Applejack shouted as she and the others carried a few fillies on their backs along with Phobos out of the way with Rainbow Dash carrying Twilight before that fireball impacted their spot.

"FIRING FOURTEEN," Pinkie Pie shouted off from when Rarity used her magic on her cannon, the pink pony jumped around to aim, pull the trigger rope and… "BOOM" Fire a perfectly aimed shot directly towards Boris's face, she smiled in what will happen next here.

"RUUU-ROOOUURRAAARRROOOGH," Then Boris opened his mouth again and prepared to fire another fireball shot towards the gang if not for the close angle that Pinkie's shot impacted against his left cheek side, "Gru-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh." That caught Boris by surprise during another siege attack, as not only did he glow a bit bright yellow from the magically shot injuring him, but once again this caused this behemoth to back away from being knocked more steps backwards to about 60 to 50% away from reaching the gang.

"That's the way to send Boris packing!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed with a smirk in seeing they managed to knock Boris farther back now even when the devil was almost upon them.

"Though Pinkie darling, you should have asked to try that stunt," Rarity stated to her friend in that risky move she tried to pull was kinda dangerous,

"Sorry, but I…Oh boy!" Pinkie Pie was about to say to Rarity but yelped in noticing something happening before them.

But then Boris cease his movement of trembling backwards from being hurt by pain and looked ticked off again as the Black Devil ended up fastening his pace in reaching the mountain side up near 70 to 75% rate again.

"Ohhhh NO YOU DON'T! FIRE FIFTEEN!" Pinkie Pie snapped off with an annoyed tone in seeing Boris try to catch up, this pink pony won't have it so she prep her cannon again to fire another shot, "BOOM!" Pinkie pulled the trigger rope which fired another shot heading straight at Boris's forehead without the blind raging devil noticing it until…the attack made its impact mark.

"Gru-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh," That caught Boris by surprise during another siege attack, as not only did he glow a bit bright yellow from the magically shot injuring him but once again this caused this behemoth to back away from being knocked more steps backwards to about 60% away from reaching the gang.

"Hey, I don't think Boris expected that. It looks like he's slowing him down further." Fluttershy stated with a hope expression coming out at last, Boris looks almost ready to fall; they can win this with just a little more push.

But then Boris cease his movement of trembling backwards from being hurt by pain and looked ticked off again as the Black Devil ended up fastening his pace in reaching the mountain side up near 80 to 85% rate again.

"HERE'S SWEETNESS FOR YOU! FIRE SIXTEEN!" Pinkie Pie snapped off in preparing her party cannon to aim and pulled the trigger rope for the next load to fire, "BOOM!" That next shot was fired off that landed right on Boris's noggin spot.

"Gru-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh," That caught Boris by surprise during another siege attack, as not only did he glow a bit bright yellow from the magically shot injuring him but once again this caused this behemoth to back away from being knocked more steps backwards to about 70% away from reaching the gang.

"Hey, it looks like one more attack might end it." The Nyx clone smiled in seeing that maybe with just one more perfectly aimed weak spot, Boris the Black Devil will finally go down and they'll save Equestria.

But then Boris cease his movement of trembling backwards from being hurt by pain and looked ticked off again as the Black Devil ended up fastening his pace in reaching the mountain side up near 85 to 95% rate again.

"Wooh; Too Close; Too Close," Phobos yelped out in seeing that Boris was a little TOO close as in over the personal space closeness!

"Um, guys? I…can't get a good aim from here to his mouth or head!" Pinkie Pie spoke with a sweat drop in seeing from Boris's gut in the way; she can't get a clear shot at the weaker points of the enemy's body.

"Hold…Hold on…and…THERE!" Twilight was issuing from concentrating before…she shot open her eyes in feeling…ready now, "Here goes! Unicorn Burst," Twilight Sparkle announced in feeling the spell was complete, to a while, but now's the time to unleash it all in one attack…at Boris!

No sooner did Twilight fire the Unicorn Burst as the drilling beam was shot out directly for the gut of the beast. "Claspmmm…" The attack hit Boris right in the gut but it seems to just hold him at a steady spot.

"Nrruaaagh…" Twilight shut her eyes to grit her teeth as if forcing herself with the spell to pierce her opponent.

But despite Twilight's attack, Boris was moving slowly from his tremor making stomps to reach 96% rate of reaching the mountain.

"He's still coming!" Apple Bloom stated to her friend in seeing that the enemy wasn't stopping yet, it's just barely doing the work of stalling.

"And he's reaching the mountain!" Scootaloo stated to the group in seeing that Boris is about to reach the mountain soon.

"We're running out of room," Sweetie Belle cautiously stated in seeing that if Boris comes to their spot, they won't be able to run around freely no more, where can they go anyhow in this state?

Boris had reached up to 97% rate of reaching the mountain even by a more slow stalling tactic as he was pressing against some rocks.

"Fluttershy, help me lift Pinkie Pie and her cannon to get this jerk in the face!" Rainbow Dash issued to the yellow Pegasus in stating a plan to give it to Boris right in the face.

"But…can we make it in time?" Fluttershy asked nervously in seeing that in the state they are in, the gang should think about getting away before getting crushed,

"Only one way to find out, hurry now!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed in feeling that they won't know until they themselves try, so without warning, the Pegasus helped to fly the pink pony & her cannon up to the sky. If the gang don't hurry up and do this right, then they can say goodbye to their homes.

Then Boris had made a mark of reaching 98% rate and closing in to crush the structure with his body and the gang still on the thing with zero movement of escaping.

"Nrrugh…I'm…having…hard…time…pushing him!" Twilight struggled with her words, she's trying her best, but the spell is just not pushing or giving enough to Boris, she really thought she herself had it all figured out, but now...

"I'll help mama!" Nyx's clone shouted from racing up to Twilight and jumped up on her back suddenly.

"Nyx, you can't! You have to…" Twilight Sparkle yelped in shock and surprise, but still continued the spell despite the surprise that her adoptive daughter's clone wanted to aid her in this dangerous situation. "If you die, your original will be down a strength!

"I know but my original fired that spell too, so let me help!" The Nyx clone insisted with a determine expression that Twilight noticed. It's true, the real filly used the same spell that defeated Boris while his guard was down and the clone remembers her doing it, even if that was when Nux was, in an unexplainable moment, changed into the form of Nightmare Moon that time before being changed back the next.

"Oh, alright," Twilight sighed to give in; her daughter, even a clone of Nyx, can be as stubborn as she is, guess that proves how close the two really are.

Soon the Nyx clone's horn glowed before adding its magic to Twilight's spell which increased the attack of the piercing spell more.

"Twilight, keep it up! You and Nyx have to hold him until the others blast him a couple feet back!" Applejack shouted from where she, Rarity and the CMC & Phobos are at in trying to shelter from the collapsing mountain structure.

"Let's hope they can reach Boris's head to serve the final hit!" Rarity spoke with concerns to look up in hoping their other friends can aid Twilight & Nyx before it's too late.

"Or else we are going to know the meaning of a 'crushing defeat' here!" Phobos yelped up in feeling if nothing is done, then what he said may come true.

However, Boris the Black Devil was making one step more that finally pushed more of the rocky structure of the mountain and those still on the back side. The colossus beast of a devil pony reached a mark of 99% of completely coming into contact with the mountain.

"Mommy, he's…" The Nyx clone struggled from her aid, Boris's large Devil form was pushing her spell aided with Twilight's back without showing signs of being stopped.

"No….it can't end…like this!" Twilight Sparkle tried to struggle her hold, but the more she tried, the more Boris pushed even with the strongest perching spell that hasn't broken through his dark form, it looks like it's all…

"Twilight; Nyx; Hang on!" A voice shouted off that made both mentioned unicorns have frozen expressions…it sounded like...

Then who should appear by magic or magical teleportation to be standing beside Twilight and Nyx then…a smiling Ben Mare.

"Ben/Daddy," Twilight & Nyx exclaimed in union together in seeing the missing stallion that they lost from landing on the mountain had appeared on a close second to save them.

"Hold on, I'll give some of my power with yours!" Ben Mare assured to the two holding Boris back that he help on his side to level the plain-field to their advantage.

Then just like that, Ben Mare's Triforce Mark glowed brightly as the spell Twilight & Nyx were using started to get a bit bigger.

"RUUU-ROOOUURRAAARRROOOGH," Boris let out a roar from looking below him that he's stopped moving and so he himself opens his mouth to fire another fireball, and from such a close range could level the mountain side.

"SURPRISE," Pinkie Pie appeared with her cannon aimed at Boris's face with Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy keeping the thing up before the pink pony pulls the trigger and… "BOOM," Shots her attack at perfectly close aim that can't miss from a distance which made its landing mark of implosion.

"Gru-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh," That caught Boris by surprise in never expecting an attack to his head, as not only did he glow a bit bright yellow from the magically shot injuring him but once again his caused this colossus devil to back away from being knocked more steps backwards to about 95% away from reaching the gang.

"NOW," Ben Mare shouted out to the ones using the Unicorn Burst, this was their open chance with Boris wounded and glowing from Anti-Magic energy, his defense is down.

"Ahhhhhhh/haaaahhh," Twilight & the Nyx clone soon force a lot more of their magical energy into the full force of the spell with all they had together with Ben Mare's power. The Unicorn Burst soon exploded from the increasing force, thanks to his words in encouraging the two unicorns and his own Triforce of Power gave the final boost needed. "CRACK!/BREAK!" Suddenly, the forces from the spell piercer went straight through the hard scale shell of Boris the Black Devil, enough that it left some shadowy hole in its place while the spell faded away.

"Gru-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh-urgh," This finally made Boris screamed out in pain the longest and loudest as the attacks had gave him such damage from his glowing bright yellow effect but strangely from what was seen, he just stood there.

At that moment, Boris the Black Devil just glowed from the pain he was given, none made a move, none even breathed, none could stand the suspense of wanting to know; did the heroes win? That answer came the moment they heard the music that was playing cease being heard. Suddenly without warning, a magical glow of dust imploded off the outer surface of Boris's body of a bright pink color. Then another imploded glow of dust wave came out from the body that was more yellowish in color. Then again from another imploded wave of glowing emerald dust came out of that giant's body, and again was a more light blue glow dust wave imploding from the body. The pony group was confused to what was going on but then the final thing happened. An imploding glow of silver dust wave was shot out from Boris's body that was so bright, it blinded everyone.

"Wooh; Bright lights in 'de face," Apple Bloom yelped from shielding her eyes from the bright light effects that came off from Boris.

"What's happening here?" Sweetie Belle asked from not being able to see what was happening here.

"I can't see, is it over?" Scootaloo questioned the thought if this meant that they've defeated Boris?

"I'm not sure, but I think the light is dying down a bit." The Nyx clone stated out that while the others have no answer, the results may come in once they and the others get a clear view of things.

Just then, there was another music being played that only one pony knew. "Ohhh, this is the Baby Bowser Defeat Theme!" Pinkie Pie spoke off in breaking the Fourth Wall in knowing this melody all too well.

"Is that a good thing we should consider?" Phobos asked clueless to not knowing what the pink pony was doing.

"Oh, it's a good thing Phobos, trust me!" Pinkie Pie smiled to nod in feeling that very sure of something with a smile on her face.

Soon everything was clear and what surprised the gang most was that after the bright light show, Boris the Black Devil was no longer around, the ponies couldn't believe that something THAT BIG could just vanish into thin air like that. Then during the background music's final finale moment, who should the gang fall from the sky spiraling than their defeated foe.

"Gruaarrughvmm…" What landed far from the gang was Boris himself, now reverted into his Red Devil form and lied on the ground a few feet away from the gang, beaten and defeated in an out cold state.

It was also at this moment that the musical theme had ended with only Pinkie Pie smiling at her stump friends for her point being correct.

"See, I told you that was a good sign!" Pinkie Pie pointed to her friends with a smile in seeing that she was right all along.

"Pinkie, you are so random, that I couldn't feel happier in seeing that's the best thing about you!" Rainbow Dash shook her head to smile in exclaiming that while the pink pony was strange, she had some good sides to her.

"I can't believe my own eyes!" Rarity spoke from a bit of gasping at finding this all too hard to believe.

"Believe it Rarity, them eyes o' yers ain't lying what ya seeing here." Applejack elbows her friend that what they see is the real deal alright.

"We did it, we finally beat Boris!" Fluttershy spoke in surprise that the ponies managed to defeat Boris, the well known Red Devil AND Black Devil, it's more than anybody could have guessed the Mane Six to pull it off.

"Yeah, guess it didn't matter if he was a Red Devil or a Black Devil." Ben Mare smiled in seeing that for him, he had faith that they could pull through this. "We stood by ourselves in belief and that's what kept us going." The stallion tapped a hoof on the ground in declaring out what he believed to be a true feeling in his gut.

"You know Ben; that sounds an awful lot like what Princess Celestia would say." Twilight Sparkle stared her eyes at Ben in a sly expression in recognizing something of her teacher.

"Well, being around mom that much has had me pick up a few things she would expect to say in situations like this." Ben Mare sheepishly rubbed the back of his head while expelling that he may have picked up some habits from Celestia.

"Hmm-hmm, I'll bet." Twilight Sparkle held in her chuckles in trying to not sound mean in seeing that her love indeed got something from the princess.

Just then, who would show up again but Boxco and Dum Dum using either magic to fly or their wings while in the air. They have watched and seen with disbelief never leaving their faces, their boss, Boris, had lost to the pony group AGAIN, this one making it a third time in a row, its crazy!

"Hey! How dare you!" Boxco snapped at the group that bested the minion duos boss. "Aww, it's not fair!" He complained in seeing that Boris has lost again and just when it really looked like he would win.

"Yeah, you are such meanies!" Dum Dum complained as well in seeing that the good heroes defeated their boss.

Then both minions of Boris raced around the heroes to make a 'U' turn to grab their defeated boss to go up in the air.

"We will get you for this!" Boxco shouted off to the group that the trio will get back at the goody-two-shoes for what they did.

"Yeah; we'll be back!" Dum Dum shouted off in what they'll do the next time that the villains meet the gang will be to get some payback.

"Just you wait and seeeeee…" Both minions screamed while flying their injured Devil pony of a boss, Boris the Red Devil, out of the area. They flew up high into the air through the night sky and looked to have vanished pass the view of where the full moon layover in the sky.

"Let's chase after those guys before they get too far!" Rainbow Dash stated with a determined face while flying up with Fluttershy beside her. Thinking with luck, the ponies can chase the escapees and catch them before the villains get too far.

"Cruvhmm…" Suddenly during that moment, the entire mountain side that the gang were on started to rumble a bit.

"What's happening here?" Rarity yelped from feeling something was happening now, of all times.

"There shouldn't be any more earthquakes if Boris lost, so what is this?" Fluttershy stated that she was sure, this shaking should have ended from the enemy's defeat, so why?

"This mountain's side is too damaged, it's breaking apart!" Twilight Sparkle issued off in noticing the cracks from below them. Boris really cut it too close when he smacked his body to the mountain, and even from defeat, it was still enough to break portions of the structure to give in.

"And US along with it," Phobos yelped out in seeing that if this side of the mountain, so do they!

"Everypony, we need to get off this side of the mountain, come on!" Ben Mare exclaimed a plan to get everyone out of harm's way before it was too late.

"Cruvhmm…" Soon while those that could fly or use magic to float managed to get those that were unable to do such task away from the mountain side that was breaking apart. "KUR-POWVHMM…" Soon from a far view, the gang managed to see the side they once was on completely wrecked by the fight that they had with Boris the Black Devil. And let's say they were lucky to get out of that spot in the nick of time.

"Man, talk about bringing down a mountain!" Applejack stated in surprise, first time they've ever escaped a mountain coming down on their heads.

"Yeah, if we didn't then, we be flat as pancakes!" Pinkie Pie described what would have happened if the gang didn't get out of the way in time.

"I rather not think about it!" Scootaloo shook her head off in even imagining such an idea to ever come up in their minds.

"Maybe we should see if Princess Celestia is alright?" Sweetie Belle spoke in concerns from seeing that this whole time Celestia is a no show.

"What could have taken her an' Princess Luna so long 'ta come help us out?" Apple Bloom responded puzzled that as the strongest alicorn ponies, they should have come to stop Boris when they saw a 10,000 feet tall Black Devil marching to flatten Canterlot and Ponyville.

"Maybe they had to help get everypony to safety." The Nyx clone spoke in stating her own opinion of the fact of what's been going on recently. "That's what I do, I think about protecting others before protecting myself by making sure they are safe." She declared out in feeling that in any case, she herself would wanna make sure everyone and anybody were out of the serious harm's way first and most important step when facing grand danger.

"Hugh, Ah remember yew, 'de original 'dat is, doing something like 'dat Nyx, but Ah guess such a feeling never goes away." Applejack spoke from patting Nyx on the back in complimenting the black filly on something which the girl blushed a bit in finding those words comforting from the cow girl pony.

"Well, mom and Aunt Luna are keeping the army busy. We got you and the Elements out. Come on, let's get to Canterlot." Ben Mare suggested to the others in what they best be doing.

With that, the group had to venture away from the mountain side to go directly to the city of Canterlot while getting out of Nightmare Canyon. The incident will most likely be discovered. After all, practically everyone in all of Equestia weren't asleep in missing a 10,000 feet tall pony-hyper dragon beast devil stomping in such Earthquake seismic matter activities to NOT notice what was going on, even in the dark of the night.

Sir Spell Nexus was watching the battle through a telescope through a window. Zecora spoke up, "Sir Spell Nexusl how's the battle?"

"It was Boris all right, he has grown big...but luckily, Twilight, Ben and their friends have defeated him." Nexus explains to the others.

"That means they are now out of the castle!" Caramel exclaims in realization.

"But do they have the Elements?" Twist asks from inside Garzoois.

Golden Heart looks through the telescope, saying, "Twilight is looking through her scrap bag and...yes; I can see them! They got the Elements! Our mission is a success!"

"Awww man and we didn't try the new weapons out yet!" Soarin' pouts a bit, the Wonderbolt wanted so much to kick some butt with the weapons.

"Oh brother," Spitfire said with a chuckle.

"We can still use them, confiscate them and such." Golden Heart insists to the other rescue team members. "Gather everything that you can. I shall send the signal to Nyx herself to get Shining's troops out of there."

-------------

"Why won't you just bucking die!" Lorcan snaps furiously as he slashes at Shining who made some flips to dodge his enemy's attacks.

"I was gonna say the same to you!" Shining remarks to Lorcan right back.

"Are you no better than me? You would become a murderer? If that's the case, what's the difference between the two of us?" Lorcan challengers as he uses his beam sword with Shining's.

"I have the determination and will to win!"

"Oh please!"

As the battle rages on, Lorcan fires more lightning, almost hitting Shining who sang as well. Lorcan scoffs a bit as he made a huge fireball appears, slamming it right onto the heroes. Lorcan clash blades with his enemy as the song continue. Lorcan laughs madly as he flew into the air as if asking 'you're kidding, right?"

Suddenly Lorcan kicks Shining's beam sword right out of his hooves, then grabs it. After turning the weapon off and throwing it to the ground, he activates his own beam sword and offer, "Any last words?"

Nyx, still in hiding, gasps in horror. Not good, she has to do something. Suddenly a familiar voice is heard in her head, "Nyx!"

"Golden Heart," Nyx ask as she looks around in confusion. "Where are you?"

"I am communicating with you telepathically. Listen, your mother and your friends are out of the castle with your father and clone...plus, they got the Elements now! We are now departing. Get Shining and everypony else out of there!"

"R-right!"

Lorcan remarks evilly as he said, "Actually, never mind. I think I will finish you off in my teenage form as well as all of your armies. I will defeat you all in the form that took down the Mane Six!

Shining & Big Mac become worried, they saw Lorcan's other form from the hologram imagine in the sky, and knew that if the enemy does that, they might not stand a chance.

But just before the villain does so, a familiar filly show up, much to Lorcan's shock as he exclaims, "What the...How did you escape?!"

"Surprise," Nyx exclaims as she uses use the Stare on him, the evil dragon freezes in terror.

"Nyx," Shining and Big Mac exclaims in surprise. Is this the real alicorn filly or the clone that was captured?

"I'm the real thing! Listen, mommy and the others are safe with daddy, plus they got the Elements! Golden Heart and his rescue army are leaving so it's time for us to go!"

"Right, troops; move out!" Shining exclaims quickly to his troops. Golden Heart has given the signal, time for the army to make their escape!

The dragons looks shocked as the army make their retreat. What's going on; as most of them and Big Macintosh left, Lorcan recovers and sees this, much to his fury.

"No!" Lorcan exclaims as he kicks Nyx aside. Shining gasps as he saw this, "I don't know how you escape, Nightmare Moon, but you will wish that you haven't spilt from your clone when I'm done with you!"

Nyx yelps, preparing for Lorcan's attack but suddenly Shining fires a blast at the villain, knocking him away from his niece. The unicorn grabs both his weapon and Nyx as he gallops away to the entrance. Shining fires a blast at the said entrance, causing it to collapse.

"That will slow them down." Shining said as he quickly gallops off with Nyx still on his back. Lorcan got back up and saw what happened, much to his further fury.

"Grrr...No! You won't get away from me!" Lorcan exclaims furiously. He points to two dragons as he continues, "you two idiots, with me!"

"What of us, my lord?" One of the dragons not going asks their boss curiously.

"Kill my pawns...they can join their clones."

During this time, the real former members in hiding watch, looking shocked as Trixie exclaims, "He knows!"

"Then let us get the hay out of here." Rover said with a yelp of concern.

"Uh, any idea," Spot ask his former members in concern.

"Luckily, my brother and I took one item from the machine room." Flim said thoughtfully as he motions to his brother, "Flam, the teleportation device."

"Right, let us leave, everyone!" Flam insists as he took out a familiar device, using it to teleport himself, his brother and the rest of the former Brotherhood of Tadaka members out of the area.

Lorcan and his two dragons flew out of the castle to fly, the boss via magic, after the enemies while looking for them, but there is no sign of any of them.

"Keep looking for them! They can't have gone far!" Lorcan snarls as his two dragon allies flew off in search of the escaped troops. "This isn't good...my original self isn't going to like this..."

Yes, turns out that the Lorcan that Shining, Ben and Big Macintosh were facing, and what Nyx was using the Stare on, is a clone that the original send while he's busy elsewhere. The fake Lorcan fades into the darkness to alert the real one as to what has happened...

Author's Notes:

What an epic battle, eh? Boris is defeated again, the heroes have escaped, and Lorcan has made a clone. In the next chapter, the villain is going to resort to drastic measures to help him win. But what is Grimmore? And when Lorcan confronts the Mane Six once more, he attacks Nyx.

Nyx: Eep!

Me: Yep. Also, the second fight of Lorcan vs. Shining and Big Macintosh as a familiar face shows up at the end. Read, review and suggest!

The fear powder used by Zecora is a reference to her role in the Mare Do Well stories (fanmakes of Batman: The Animated Series) which she is in the role of the Scarecrow, one of the Batman villains.

The fight with Boris & music are relating to Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island with the Final Boss Battle with Bowser Jr., from defeat to super size. The combined efforts from Twilight, then aid from Nyx to Ben Mare's sudden appearance is relating to the DBZ Movie 10: Broly's Revenge during the final battle scene. The claims made by the evil minions were lines used by Koopa in Count Koopula when leaving after his defeat along with the crumbling of a structure to a witty remark of how such a place fell apart from what the heroes did.

This chapter also has reference to the Rainbow Dash's E-Mails as well as my fanmake of the fifth episode of the Strong Bad games.

This chapter originally has a song but I removed it out of precaution. You can find it with the chapter at my deviantART page and my page at fanfic-4all.

The chase at the end has references to the Harry Potter films.

Next Chapter: Chapter 13: Dragons vs. Ponies Estimated time remaining: 3 Hours, 59 Minutes
