Author's Notes:

Let the hell puns begin! :yay:

I woke up once more and stood up again. Everyone was still where they were before I collapsed except for Luna, who was in the middle of standing up as well.

"Do you have to lie down while doing dream stuff?" I asked. "Or can you do it standing?"

"I can do it standing," she replied, "but I did not know how long you would be and I did not want to wake to leg cramp."

"Fair enough." Suddenly Twilight collapsed before screaming at the top of her lungs.

"WHERE AM I?!" She screamed. "WHAT'S GOING ON?!"

"We're at the castle of the Two Sisters and you're being stupid."

"Yeah, Twilight," agreed Pinkie, "stop being stupid!"

"Oh, screw you, Cloud!" Twilight exclaimed.

"Yeah, Cloud, stop being mean!"

"Who's side are you on?!"

"Your left and Cloud's right!" Twilight facehoofed and groaned.

"Anyway," I said, turning to Luna, "what's the plan? Is there someone who rules Tartarus I can talk to or do I have to storm the place?"

"It's... Rather complicated," she replied. "My sister and I used to use it as a prison for enemies we did not deem dangerous enough to use the Elements of Harmony on. Many, many dangerous enemies reside there, and I don't doubt that my sister continued to use it while I was... Um..."

"Sent to your room for being a bitch." She used her magic to tear some of my tail hairs out. "Ow."

"The point is, while there are many things keeping them inside Tartarus, most of them have free reign. Or at least they did a thousand years ago, things may be different now."

"Storm the place it is. It'll be too much for me to do on my own, so I'm gonna need to get some armour, probably from the royal armoury or something. I don't know if that's a thing, or-"

"Yes, we have an armoury."

"Good. I'm also gonna need a bunch of potions, I can get them from Zecora, Pinkie Simulators would be good, a have a few left, and I need that special team thing you put together, the one with the stupid name." Luna sighed angrily.

"The Night's Knights?"

"Yeah, them. But tell the Changelings to stick to non-insectoid forms, you know about my phobia. Some regular guards would be good too, it's a big place and having a lot of people at my disposal would be prehensile."

"That would be what?" Asked Rainbow, sounding confused.

"I'm using Eaglish-Eaglish because it's diverse, I'm sick of having to change my speech pattern to fit different cultures."

"But what does it replace?"

"Hoofy and handy."

"'Hoofy'? I've only ever heard 'handy'."

"The word 'handy' was invented by people from Minotaur culture, the Equestrian-Eaglish version of the word didn't really catch on. Why are you asking me about trivia? I'm trying to plan an assault on Hell here."

"'Hell'?"

"What did I just say?"

"Sorry..."

"Alright, so-"

"But I still don't know what 'prehensile' means."

"Oh for-! Just ask Twilight! I'm busy!"

"Srhugruierbuiers ;oiusrgh;ouabouer," added Applejack.

"Good point, I'll need food. Alright, the N's Ks have Griffons, a Threstral and a Diamond Dog, so I'm gonna need to get meat as well. Uh... Oh! You farm for meat as a side thing, right?"

"HREIUFEBRIUGAEBIURAIB."

"Can I buy a large amount from you?"

"Arhfubewi9rfbw rgeoiubes oahgfoueagb."

"A discount? Really?"

"Sgsgtgsdf, rfaeoifrf auigfrariufari uibdfiupbaer?" I smiled.

"Thanks, Applejack, I'll come by the farm when I know the numbers. I don't know what to do for armour though, there's no way I could wear leather, plus it wouldn't do shit anyway, gold and platinum would just slow me down, iron plate is too bulky, and iron mail will be too weak for demons..."

"I know of something experimental I may be able to get for you," said Luna. "It is... Odd. But it may be exactly what you need."

"Alright, that's good, I'll keep that in mind."

"Cloud!" Cried a voice form above. I looked up to see Watcher flying down to us.

"What?" He landed.

"I have something I need to warn you about!"


I woke up to a buck load of aches and pains. Gah... Buck... What... What happened...? Where am I...? I craned my neck to look around me to see I was in a cell of some kind. The area was dimly lit, but, from the little I could see, it seemed like the bars were made of bones. Oh good... That's always a good sign...

I tried to move. Keyword being 'tried'. Oh great... A wave of exhaustion washed over me. Well... Nothing else... I can... Do anyway... I went to sleep.
