Chapter 195: 194. The day I've dreamed of since I was small (part 5)

Previous Chapter Next Chapter

It had taken almost the entire ten minute window, but Midnight had been healed and given a potion to help regenerate his magic and wounds. Many of the ponies around town who had been hit by the flying Alicorn were being healed by many of the unicorns that knew healing magic, along with the princess' aiding them as well. During the time that Screwball had been gone though, the town was surprised to see Kindle and Ice fighting up above the town. The sky was filled with clouds which began to vanish into thin air as Kindle passed by them, only to reappear as Ice chased her.

"Guys, I know Kindle wants to take care of Ice on her own, but if she looses and that pony gets anywhere near this town. The lose of life could be immense." Midnight stated as he looked around seeing many of their worried faces contort in fear.

"Did you say ice pony?" Vinyl asked as she raised her shades, cocking a brow to the dark Alicorn.

"Yea, why?" He asked.

"Well, If Kindle hasn't taken care of that pony yet, that means she needs help. What better way to shatter some ice then with some sound waves?" She grinned to the Alicorn as his expression turned from slightly confused to realization, a grin plastered across his face.

"You don't get air sick do you?" He asked as his horn lit up.

"No way, why do you ask?" She asked just before Midnight vanished, reappearing as a set of armor onto her. She blinked a couple of times as her vision was filled with unfamiliar images.

"Nice, I guess being a tech geek, and a musical sensation gives you a leg up on technology when it comes to magic huh?" Midnight asked through the glowing stone on her chest plate.

Everypony looked on in awe at Vinyl's new set of armor that she wore that was Midnight Flame. Instead of some light or heavy armor. Vinyl's entire body was now covered in many pieces of armor that seemed to be a part of her instead of just resting onto her body. Each hoof had a solid shoe that had many different lines along it leading to a circular pattern on all sides and the bottom. All of which glowed a bright blue. The shoes continued up her legs to each joint which then had a glowing shield covering them before the armor continued up and onto her body. Her chest piece looked like futuristic earth technology, or rather a Gundam torso that looked sleeker and conformed better to her body. Moving up to her head was a piece of armor that covered her spine and seemed to meld into her flesh before it split off doing a ninety degree turn to move around her head only to stop at the edge of her peripheral vision and turn into a light green set of shades that the continued on to connect in front of her. Targeting and hostile's information being fed into it to show her the location of enemies and friendlies. On her back however was the coup de gras. A set of metal wings that jutted out like knives into the air as she stood up onto her back legs giving a smirk. The wings unfolded into a second set that attached as well. Both having bright blue glowing lines of energy running along them. At the tips of each wing you could see a visible warping of the air around them before it moved along the entire wing itself. Another couple of seconds later she was hovering off of the ground with a gentle hum resonating from her wings.

"Nice, I wonder what kind of weapons I've got." She spoke in a semi-robotic voice.

"No time to find out at the moment doll, Hostile in bound, EVERY PONY SCATTER!" Midnight shouted as the crowd quickly dispersed, heading in every direction just before Kindle and Ice crashed into the ground just a few feet from Vinyl.

"You freaking bitch! Just DIE already!" Kindle shouted as she let loose a plume of fire from her mouth onto the Ice pony. A loud hiss sounding off as much of her began to melt only to reform quicker than Kindle could react to.

"Kindle, need some help?" Midnight shouted through the gemstone on Vinyls chest.

"It you wouldn't mind please. I've had my fun. It's time to end this." She shouted back as she avoided several ice spikes that had been flung at her.

"Vinyl, if you please." Midnight chuckled as she took to the air above the two ponies, her sights locking onto the target. She was startled for a moment as her forelegs pulled themselves up, pointing toward Ice as the targeting icon began to flash.

"Sonic Wave!" She shouted as sound waves erupted from the bottom of her hooves down toward Ice, She only looking up just in time for the waves to hit her and pin her to the ground, completely sprawled out.

"Time to crank the frequency!" She shouted as the pitch of the sonic pulses became higher and higher. Ice's normally blank expression began to falter as the vibrations began to literally crack her body. Her expression becoming that of pain, then agony before she let out a loud scream just before she shattered into a million pieces, all of which were quickly melted away by Kindle as she gave a snort.

"Finally!" Kindle shouted with a sigh of relief.

"Not bad Scratch, I like your style." Midnight chuckled causing her to blush.

"Don't get to cocky!" Shouted Screwball as she plowed into Vinyl, knocking her back several hundred feet.

Vinyl came to a stop in the air as the the area around her rippled from the unheard sonic pulse that were causing her to fly.

"Heh, back for more punk? Well then, I won't disappoint." Vinyl smirked but stopped as Screwball pressed a hoof forward then pulled it back in an expression of 'come get some'. "Big mistake beanie brains." Vinyl chuckled as the air around her rippled as a loud sonic boom was heard before she vanished.

Screwball didn't have time to react as a hoof hit her square into the stomach just before a loud Sonic boom was heard, and music began to play all around her. Each beat consisting of a punch or kick. Screwball doing her best to block or avoid the hits at first but kept getting hit. After listening to the music though she began to see the sequence in which Vinyl was throwing hits toward her. But as soon as she memorized them, they would change up once again as a different beat came from the music around her. About a minute into the assault the hits became far more intense as each connecting hit would rattle Screwball.

Vinyl hit her one last time sending her flying into the sky before she took off after her, just as the music kicked back in she began connecting blow after blow along with sonic attacks that caused her very bones to vibrate. A few seconds into it Screwball opened her eyes letting loose a massive light that temporarily blinded Vinyl, giving Screwball just enough time to start wailing on her.

Screwballs assault was short lived as Vinyl Shouted out much like before but with less intensity.

"HEY!" Came from her in a wave of ripples which halted Screwballs assault just long enough for Vinyl to continue her assault. Shouting ever so often to stun the pony before wailing onto her again and again.

After quite the assault Screwball flew backwards away from the pony so that she could gather herself, breathing hard as she assessed the damage to her body.

"Quitting so soon?" Vinyl asked as she floated there for a moment, grinning like a bandit. "Let's kick it up a notched." She grinned as two sections of her wings broke off to combine and glow as they began to transform into something Screwball had never seen before.

"What is that?!" She asked as her eyes went wide as it began to glow brighter and brighter.

"Oh this? It's nothing special, it's just my BASS CANNON!" Vinyl yelled as the glowing shrank quickly to a point before erupting from the center of the large weapon she was holding, hitting Screwball dead center before she could react and sending her hurtling into the ground at the speed of sound.

Screwball crashed into the ground with such force it caused the ground to ripple outward, making a huge crater in the center of town along with the others that had been made already. Vinyl flew down to the groaning chaos pony as Midnight began.

"Screwball, This is your last chance to give up. You aren't going to win this fight, so just admit defeat. We won't allow you to destroy this world, or all of creation. But we will allow you to live if you just give up already." He sighed as they floated just out of her reach.

"I've.......... come this far." She strained to take a breath before glaring at the floating pony in armor. "It's pointless to stop now, IF ALL THAT'S LEFT IS MY DEATH!" She shouted as an invisible force wave pushed back everything, even the ground in a spherical shape around Screwball.

Vinyl pulled up her fore hooves to take the blunt of the hit as she was flung backwards. Before she knew it, the glowing from her armor flickered before it began to fade. An alarm sounded of as her visor showed the word ALERT across it.

"What's going on Night?" She shouted as the continued to skid backwards on the ground. Coming to a stop just short of a crowd of ponies.

"NO! NOT NOW!" Midnight shouted just before the armor glowed, disappearing and reappearing as Charles standing next to Vinyl.

Screwball glanced over to the white unicorn, now without armor, and then to the human standing next to her. Screwball's grin became more and more wicked as she began to slowly trot toward them before galloping and then taking a burst of speed as she flew toward them.

"SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!" Charles yelled out as he pulled up hit arms to in front of him and standing in front of Vinyl as he was hit hard, sending him backwards into Vinyl, knocking her out of the way and then skidding to a stop a hundred foot back.

Charles lay there, stunned badly and bruised all over from the hit. His vision blurring as he looked to the sky above. Hoof steps were heard as time seemed to pass by slowly. Screwball coming into his vision as she glared down to him. He gave a cough as he weakly lifted his hand up, Screwballs eyes going wide for a moment as she looked at the strange appendage before it rested onto her cheek. Her eyes darted from the hand back to Charles' smiling face. He knew it was over, her couldn't move and knew this was his time. The only words that left his mouth before darkness took him were.

"I'm sorry.............. for hurting you.............." Darkness engulfed his vision as his hand fell to the ground, a small cloud of dust stirring up as it made impact.

Before Screwball could say or do anything, there was a loud crack as the sky suddenly split like broken glass. The normal blue hue of the day turning into a dark red and then black as it faded into the horizon.

"No.................." Discord spoke out softly as he looked around before another loud crack erupted from the sky as another visible line shot through it like broken glass. "Everyone, you must destroy Screwball, at any cost. I'm going to the realm of the God's to try and delay what is about to happen. Do everything within your power to destroy her. That is the only option left." Discord shouted as the ground beneath them began to tremble slightly, he vanished in a flash of light.

The elements were to stunned to say or do anything as they looked to the fallen human laying at Screwballs hooves. Celestia, Luna, and the elements making their way over to see Charles laying there, no visible expression of pain or suffering on his face. Just a plain, serene expression, the only one that can come with sleep, or death.

Screwball backed away from the fallen human, a smile spread across her face as she looked to the sadness etched onto all of the ponies before her. It quickly was turned to shock as the entire group turned to glare at her as they began to surround Charles.

After a few more seconds, Screwball became annoyed at the lack of action and spoke up.

"Well? Come on! Meet your end!" She shouted with a mad cackle. It came to a halt though as she watched all of them beginning to glow, gaining in luminosity as the seconds passed by. "I think I fucked up this time." Was the last words to leave Screwballs mouth as she looked at the sight before her.
