The entire group were suddenly swallowed up by water when their trip through the black hole reached its' end. Not given much time to react, most of the group held their breath as they collided with the aquatic substance.

Adagio, Aria, Sonata and Starswirl were the only ones capable of breathing underwater, due to the large quantity of magic they possessed. However, they saw that the ponies they had been travelling with were holding their breaths tightly, about to drown unless they did something fast.

When the black hole vanished, Adagio, Aria, Sonata and Starswirl cast a powerful spell that ringed around each of the ponies and cast a sort of slender membrane that perfectly shrouded them. When the membrane vanished, each of the ponies was able to breathe water, and took a gasp as they did so.

"Alright, everyone. I've got good news and bad news..." Adagio said as she finally saw the ponies getting back their initial air with the help of that magical membrane. "The good news is, we're finally able to take our tests. The bad news is, we've wound up in The Divide..."

"The Divide?" Fluttershy looked around the empty world of water that surrounded them all. She could see no sign of underwater landmass, nor could she see any aquatic animals nearby. It was just an empty region of lifeless water.

"The Divide is the joint between Euphoria and Dystopia. You just need to look up and down to see why..." Adagio pointed above and below her position. "Above us, is the heavenly landscape of Euphoria," she pointed towards what looked like light pouring into the higher region of the sea. "and below us, the depths of Dystopia..." she then pointed downwards to where the water became blood-red.

"It's also one of the most suppressive enviroments in history. We won't be able to use our singing to get you all out of here..." Aria said, using her hand to manipulate the water around her, leaving a trail of bubbles in her wake. "The only way we're getting out of here is if we end up in Euphoria, since that place has tons of portals to the three worlds..."

Suddenly, a distant roar could be heard in the distance, echoing on the water so that it sounded more menacing. It seemed to be the sound of a kraken's roar, which got all of The Rainbooms to huddle up in fear.

"We're not alone, are we?" Adagio's fears were confirmed when the roar finally stopped. She then raised her sword, ready for a fight with whatever made that roar. "Something doesn't feel right. Stay on your guard, everypony..."

The group were suddenly assaulted by an enormous tentacle with black suction cups and blood-red skin. When they all jumped in surprise, they saw the source of the tentacle...

A massive humanoid squid was glaring at them, with tentacles similar to the first one erupting from his body at will. He was carrying a rather bizarre staff made out of the giant, slimy tentacles, which also had red Furen crystals poking out of certain areas. The monster himself was a monster of a monster in size, with seething red eyes peering down on the group of thirteen. The last detail that was visible was a massive red Furen crystal draped around its' neck.

Devourer of Hatred

CTHULHU

The beast roared once more, its' tentacles violently stretching out and casting an array of Furen-based spells on the ocean around it, turning it red as blood. With the new change in the environment, the beast's ferocious glare intensified, so that its' rage was visible for all to see.

"Hello, Cthulhu..." Adagio grew a rather unearthly smirk as she brought her blade up to her chest, ready for conflict...

The battle began with The Dazzlings swimming at a rather rapid pace towards the giant beast, completely unfazed by its' colossal structure and menacing body. It didn't take long for them to notice that he was attacking them with its' massive tentacles, each one firing out sharp tendrils as they were swung at The Dazzlings. The added tendrils then began attacking in very violent attack patterns, with some acting as minefields and the others acting as homing torpedoes.

All the chaos made it hard for The Dazzlings to evade all those tendrils, and they eventually found themselves feeling the full brunt of the beast's assault, with at least half of all the tendrils hitting their mark after a while. When they recovered from the chain of impacts, they saw the beast's mouth open wide, revealing rings of teeth in the midst of another forest of tentacles.

The Rainbooms suddenly got a crazy idea, and swam towards Cthulhu whilst it attacked with its' ferocious chain of attacks. As the beast was about to consume Adagio, Aria and Sonata, Sunset Shimmer fired a concussive blast at the beast, hitting it square on the cheek and making it flinch in pain, getting it to stop trying to eat The Dazzlings.

"Hope you want octopus for dinner, girls!" Sunset said, ready to aid The Dazzlings in their fight with the colossal beast.

"Rainbooms?! What are you doing?! This thing's much more violent then what we've fought!" Adagio tried warning them without even realizing that Cthulhu had already turned its' rage on The Rainbooms, and was now deluging them with tentacle tendrils. "If you end up fighting it, you'll be taken down in an instant!"

"Then that's just a risk we'll have to take!" Rainbow Dash said, using her wings to propel herself through the water fast enough to avoid the storm of tendrils.

Rarity, on the other hand, was using her newfound horn to fire small waves of energy at each of the tendrils, making them explode seconds before they hit their mark. "Well, I guess that's one advantage to being a Unicorn..." she said after she finished up a wave of the tendril attacks.

Cthulhu was now seething with anger, desperately trying to annihilate The Rainbooms by molding its' staff into a rather devastating trident. The prongs of its' new tentacle trident fired lightning-shaped waves of red energy, ready to turn the ponies into well-done horse meat.

Not even sparing any moments for thought, Starswirl fired a wave of energy at Cthulhu's wrist, making it clutch it in pain and make it miss its' mark completely. He then lit up his horn and teleported behind the beast, where he opened fire on its' exposed back with a number of advanced spells.

With the beast unable to fend off that many attackers at once, Rainbow Dash swam towards the beast and used her hooves to kick Cthulhu's face as she bolted past it. She did this multiple times in an attempt to stun the beast, but was then knocked back by its' colossal trident, and blasted by a wave of red energy. However, focused so hard on Rainbow Dash, Cthulhu failed to notice that The Dazzlings had closed the gap on it, and were now frantically wailing away at its' face.

When faced with that many attackers at once, Cthulhu roared once more, and used the tentacles that erupted from its' body to quickly constrict and smash the attackers' heads together violently, in an attempt to break their skulls clean open. However, this bore no fruit as its' face was assaulted by a deluge of combined Alicorn Magic from Celestia, Luna and Cadence.

With everyone attacking him at once, Cthulhu's roar intensified, and all of its' tentacles opened up tears in the fabric of reality. Within seconds, those tentacles used those tears to get right into the faces of their targets, and slam them with loads and loads of power.

The Dazzlings merely swam at light speed to avoid being hit by the tentacles and their tendrils. Then, with such speed and force, The Dazzlings sliced Cthulhu's tentacles clean off, making him holler out in pain once more. With the tentacles reeling, Adagio, Aria and Sonata pulled off strings of sword combos that ultimately ended with them driving the tips of their swords straight into Cthulhu's eyes, making it bleed as it screamed once again.

With the opposition getting the upper hand once again, Cthulhu's Furen crystal shone with such ferocity as it roared and threw its' limbs behind its' back. Then, the entire area was caught in a violent vortex of water, catching all of the attackers and throwing them around violently.

All of the attackers tried to fight back against the water, but were ultimately swept away by the violent torrent. Not even Rainbow Dash was fast enough to fight back against the water, and her wings eventually tired out eventually.

With all of the team swirling around the vortex, Adagio, Aria and Sonata no longer fought the violent stream, and instead rode it. For some reason, they got a sense of euphoria from riding the deadly vortex, a sense of happiness that usually never surfaced within combat. Smiles grew on their faces as they swam forward, speeding themselves up so that they remained out of Cthulhu's line of fire.

Eventually, The Dazzlings saw that Cthulhu destroyed the trident, using the different tentacles that flew off to replace the ones that had been severed. They swam under and over the tentacles, the tendrils no longer becoming a problem with their intense speeds. When they'd played with him long enough, they began inching closer and closer to the beast by shifting their bodies towards the center of the violent vortex.

Starswirl and the other ponies were now feeling a great sense of fun, letting out cheers as they rode the powerful maelstrom and avoided Cthulhu's tentacles. However, they were still fighting, so whilst they were cheering in fun, they began firing spells at Cthulhu, making it shudder even further as each of the blasts struck it head on.

Finally, The Dazzlings and Starswirl had closed in on the giant beast, and were now using its' own vortex to its' advantage. The Dazzlings drove their swords right into Cthulhu's neck, then used the speeds of the vortex to slit its' throat clean open. When they came up to its' arms after that, they somersaulted repeatedly with the sword held high above their heads so that they acted as three giant circular saws as they cut deep into Cthulhu's shoulders.

With the vortex starting to die down the more damage that Cthulhu took, The Dazzlings swam upwards and did a spiral dive straight through Cthulhu's skull, slicing up all of his internal organs and finally emerging from his butthole. Seeing the beast look dead already, The Dazzlings merely flew out of the vortex and called up their next beasts.

"Kumpra!" was the word that enabled The Dazzlings to combine their magical streams together to create a massive torrent of summoning magic.

Within the short span of two seconds, a massive cobra was now towering over the remains of Cthulhu. It hissed, revealing its' fork-like tongue as it did so. Then, seeing its' pray still stationary, the giant cobra lunged towards Cthulhu and devoured it in one bite. The remains travelled down its' neck until they got smaller and smaller, and eventually vanished completely.

However, when the snake vanished, the water beneath the group disappeared, meaning that gravity caught up to them and sent them into a free-fall. Whilst the ones with wings were capable of remaining airborne, the ones without wings merely plummeted into the now visible abyss beneath them.

"Oh great..." Adagio groaned as she watched the wingless ponies fall down into the red depths of Dystopia. "That's just fan-tucking-fastic..."

The winged ponies and Lyricans gave chase to the falling girls, using their wings to desperately try to keep up with them. However, they saw the group fall into the portal to Dystopia, and The Dazzlings cringed at that. However, showing no sign of fear, the group still charged through the portal after the falling ponies.

Once they'd breached the portal to Dystopia, many different hellish corridors of Furen Magic flashed by their eyes. There were also some platforms in between the corridor, which revealed humans and ponies brutally fighting and shooting at each other, all of them shouting obscenities with each hit and shot.

The group's fall continued, with the fighting groups being replaced with war machines from both Equestria and the Human World firing on each other, the explosions barely missing the falling characters as the detonations rung in their ears. Then, the war machines suddenly changed into pictures of different Equestrian and Human World civilizations, ablaze with flames as rioters assaulted innocent bystanders with no remorse.

The group fell through an illusionary flame which looked like actual fires, before seeing the landscape change completely. It was no longer a corridor for them to fall down, but it looked like they were about to crash on the earth of a completely new world, one where the geological landmass was painted blood red, with many different monsters soaring through the sky, and ripping up the ground.

The Dazzlings were about to reach the falling ponies, when they were suddenly ambushed by a series of Hippocampi, each one with black skin and seething red eyes. They repositioned their falling axis and drove their swords straight through the necks of the berserk seahorses, so violently that it beheaded each and every one of them, allowing their bodies to disintegrate at a rapid pace.

Then, they noticed that the ground was beginning to get closer and closer to the wingless ponies at a rather rapid pace, so the team who could fly immediately picked up their speed and caught the falling ponies seconds before they crashed into the ground.

When everyone was safe from falling to their deaths, The Dazzlings, Starswirl, Celestia, Luna, Cadence, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy safely landed themselves, with some of the wingless ponies in their arms. They let all the wingless ponies down so that they could examine their surroundings.

Dystopia was a hellish landscape, filled with horrific monsters with red pendants draped around their necks. The landmass was entirely blood-red, a colour which matched the skies above them, burning red with essences of furious screams of anger wafting on the winds. There were many different cliffs and mountains that could be seen in this hellish landscape, each one with a jagged peak with red Furen crystals poking out of the tops of each. There was almost no trace of civilization in Dystopia, with a number of nearby cities and towns completely ravaged by war, with beasts that had broken shackles patrolling the place for any outsiders.

The Dazzlings looked at the hellish landscape themselves, and got a rather odd sense of nostalgia from seeing all the war-torn chaos around them. They'd even noticed nearby rivers that ran through the towns, but were lit completely on fire, making it impossible for beasts above to see the bizarre aquatic life that lived underneath the burning seas.

"W-Where are we?" Cadence looked horrified as she witnessed all the carnage happening around them. She'd never in her life seen such a nightmarish depiction of a post-apocalyptic world such as this before.

Adagio was about to explain, when a certain voice spoke for her.

"Welcome to hell, everyone. Too late to repent..." the voice said, getting the entire group to turn around and look at three familiar faces staring at them. Looking at each of the girls were scarred and bruised versions of Photo Finish, Pixel Pizzaz and Violet Blurr. "Nice to see you again, Dazzlings..."

Author's Notes:

Let me tell you a rather interesting story. Today I was supposed to see Big Hero 6 in the cinemas, but Sabrina had forgotten to book the tickets in advance, so we found that it had been completely sold out by the time we'd made it. Much to my disappointment.

However, things took a turn for the better as I instead got to witness the brilliance of Kingsmen: The Secret Service. Now then, I'm not sure whether or not you guys can see that film for yourselves, since it does heavily take place in England, but if you can, then you should know that Samuel. L Jackson plays a very large role in the story.

Night Mist: Wat does he do?

Me: Weww, I won't say much, but I'ww twy and give yoo something ta tink about. Envision all de angew at da Battwe of da Bands, but ampwified so much dat de students actuawwy go so far as to attack and attempt ta muwdew evewyone ewse...

Peanut Butter: Sounds howwibwe...

Me: I know, which is why I dun tink Amewica wiww get it any time soon. But it's basicawwy a James Bond knockoff with Cowin Fiwth and Samuew. L Jackson as the big names in de advewts.

Luna: Alright then, that's enough talk of the Human World for now. (Blows stardust in my face) Time for bed, little one.

Me: No, Mama. I dun wanna eat beets anymowe...

Night Mist: Be suwe ta weave some comments behind befowe yoo go, evewyone. It'ww hewp him wite fastew...
