After several hours in the fight
The battle grew more intense as the two dragons traded blows against one another as the citizens of the two sisters’ castle were panicking by the tremors made by them. The ponies in the castle staring at the battle could only stare at the clouds as flashes of energy were changing between a bluish color and a dark purple. They were wondering on the event they were unaware of as the princesses especially the night princess is nowhere to be found. The citizens of cloudsdale were not faring well as their homes were being unable to stabilize by intense power coming from the dragons. The dark dragon stare at city as it release a dark dragon flare onto the city. The pegasi were holding in fear as the inferno flame of death was heading towards their home until the blue dragon took the blast as he fell. The dragon followed the descended dragon with a faster pace.
20 minutes earlier
Chaos and Mephiles were blast each other with pure energy as neither side had lost an advantage over the other. Chaos clash fist first to the dark dragon’s face as he retaliated with a slash on Chao’s stomach. It went on a struggle of dragon slashes and punches as each received scarring damages, yet Mephiles’s powers have prevented lasting damage as he release a blazing flaming toward Chaos.
“Give up Chaos, you have no chance of beating me then as you do now.” Chaos was stubborn as he fired a chaos cannon only to go through a dark cloud. Chaos suddenly found himself grabbed on the neck as Mephiles prepared to finish him off.
“Like hell, I’m letting you get a easy win!” Chaos quickly closed his eyes as his body liquefied and avoid the damage by slipping from his grip. Chaos began focusing the water around the area as they turned into aqua spears surrounding Mephiles. “Now die and leave my family alone!” The spears strike the dark dragon as it seemed like he was done until a second dragon appeared out of nowhere and blasted Chaos from behind. Mephiles appeared beside it as he gave victory roaring.
“It seems my guest has arrived.” Mephiles commented on the situation as Chaos growled
“What are you talking about?” Mephiles laugh at Chaos confusion as he explains.
“Have you ever heard of the numbers in a card game called yugioh?”
“I have no time for your bullshit!”
“Fine, this is a dragon formed from the game it came from another universe, so I wonder if you have enough strength to handle two powerful dragons?” Chaos only snarled at the situation as Mephiles stares at cloudsdale and fired a inferno blast at it. Chaos was lost by the sudden fire until he notice the direction as he chaos controlled to take hit. It damaged him tremendously as he flew helplessly to the ground. He noticed the other dragon coming at him as it grabbed Chaos necked and further the speed to his crash. Chaos blasted the dragon off, yet he was unable to fly before reaching the ground. When he was about to crash to the ground an unforeseeable force arrived and help the guardian.
“Got you water boy!” Said a man in a purple magician robe while holding a green staff.
“Ohmpp, who are you?” Chaos declared as he stare at the magician with caution.
“I am the Dark Magician. The ace to the king of games, co-protector of all elements and cmc, the watcher of all Displace and co-founder of Neo Domino Town. I was summoned by that red head witch girl.” He said with a small smile.
“Well that is a good thing because we are facing an evil half of a time god monster and some dark pet he brought.” Chaos said with gratitude as Mephiles came to greet.
“Well, I thought Zorc killed your kind.” The dragon beside him growled with anticipation.
Dark Magician’s smile become a glare as look at what on the dragon’s chest. “A number.”
“Ah yes Number 95: Galaxy-Eyes Dark Matter Dragon found him in the void. It was easy to aligning savage creatures of darkness into my control. Mortal, how does it feel being a mask?” Chaos raised an eyebrow to the question as he focus on the matter at hand.
“So what does the dragon do, my displace magician friend?”
“In the card game Number 95’s attack points are 4000 while his defense points are 0. It can send up to three dragons to the graveyard. However in this case I can only he can control three dragons at a time. Also since he is a only number he can only be defeat by another number.” He said still glaring at Number 95. “Also Mephile you’re shorter than I remember you in the game.” He added.
“Oh yes surviving complete oblivion from time’s attempt to erase my existence didn’t stop me. Now any last words before we begin?” Mephiles asked as he seeks to destroy a worthy foe.
“One moment.” Dark Magician said as he open a portal and shout out. “YO DASHIE! GET OUT HERE I NEED THE HELP OF YOUR NUMBER!!” He shouted.
“I am coming. I am coming. Jeez.” Said a pegaus mare with a cyan coat with a rainbow mane and tail who wearing a weird looking neckless walk out the portal who like someone just wake up.
“She reminds of Silent Dash.” Chaos grunted as loyalty glowed from his chest.
“Whatever water boy. So Dark Magician. Why do need Number 39 for?” She asked as Dark Magician points at Number 95 which she stare at wide eyed.
“So loyalty, you think we could get some help, while I distract the asshole up there?” Chaos declared as he prepared to launch at Mephiles.
“Well that why I am here for and call me Cupcake Rainbow Dash or Dashie. Loyalty is my element.” She said while closed her eyes and putting her front hooves together as a glowing 39 appeared on top of her cutie mark while a golden aura surrounded her as she create a portal in the ground.
“COME FORTH! NUMBER 39 UTOPIA!!!” She yelled as a giant white and yellow warrior with a 39 on its shoulder appeared from the portal.
Omega and Merlina caught up as they witness the summon. “I am amaze by the power of these displace.” Merlina said with awe as Omega aimed his multiple weapons at number 95. “New enemy targeted: enable shining bullets.”
“So you think a warrior can stop my dragon. Fall as it attacks your creature.” Mephiles declared as the dragon attacked with a dark energy pulse.
“MAGICAL HATS!!” Shouted the Dark Magician as Number 39 is hidden in one of four black hats with a question mark on it which the attack hit an empty hat.
“HA! You missed!” Called out Dashie with a smug look on her face.
“You do know shadows is part of my domain. I activate LIGHTNING VORTEX!” Mephiles declared
“DESPELL!” Dark Magician shouted as it stop the spell.
“Impressive I might as well activate ROYAL DECREE as long as the effect stays traps are nulled. Now my dragon detach an xyz and attack again.” Mephiles said as the dragon attack another hat which he thought contained a trap.
“Who said there was only traps in these hats?” Dark Magician said looking very calm at Mephiles.
“mmm what spell do yo-” Mephiles was about to ask until he hit by Chaos's blast as he warped after him. The dragon being by itself went on a rampage as it tried to attack the magician.
“MIRROR FORCE!!” He said shouts as a barrier appeared and reflected the attack.
“You accursed beast.” Mephiles got Chaos off of him as he tried to activate a card, yet he couldn't as Chaos interrupts with Chaos bursts in his face.
“Hahahaha!” Dark Magician laugh at Mephiles.
“You think this is my only monster. I summon Dark Magician.” A red robe magician coming from the original’s shadow appeared to fight. Mephiles gave duel position to the clone as it aura grew with power.
“A moment please.” Dark Magician said as he open another and call out. “Hey Fluttershy could you come and give me hoof for a moment please?” He asked as a timid yellow pegasus with a pink mane and tail walk out of the portal.
“Y-You call?” Fluttershy asked timidly.
“Yes I need the help of your white dragon to beat a faker me.” Dark Magician said with a smile that calm Fluttershy down a bit.
“I activate DARK HOLE.” Mephiles blasted chaos down as a dark sphere was released from his mouth
“DESPELL!” He shouted.
“MAGIC JAMMER!” The second dark magician said as it deactivate the spell. Suddenly, Chaos's chest glowed as it released a blast of harmony negating everything Mephiles will try to do later on.
“HAhahaaha! Joke is on you. Because ponies aren’t effected by spell card that you use Mephiles.” Dark Magician said as Fluttershy’s eyes start to glow blue while having a white aura. The aura shoots upward as a White Dragon with blue eyes appeared.
“Baka, you are in a different universe rules can change!” Mephiles teleported in a shadow smoke as he attempted to destroy the white dragon only for a large purple cannon from Omega to blast him in the face as Merlina invoke a spell to enhance the white dragons strength. Merlina declared “Wrong Mephiles, some rules may change, yet-”
“-it will led you to the same fate” Omega finishes with his gun and rockets shooting at Mephiles keeping him from interfering.
“Now Blue Eyes White Dragon attack the red dark magician with WHITE LIGHTING!!” He shouts as the dragon fires lighting from its mouth and destroys the red dark magician.
“Mephiles, it’s over I will have my revenge!” Chaos declared as he unleashed a unioned Chaos and Harmony Cannon toward the duo dragons which killed Mephiles, yet it weakened number 95 tremendously.
“All yeah now time for that number!” Dashie yelled as Number 39 jumps out of one of hats.
“I will boast Number 39 power with UNTIED WE STAND!” Dark Magician shouts as a aura covers Number 39.
“May I add something as well Dark Magician?” Merlina asked.
“Sure thing Red.” He replied.
“Thanks Indigo.” she said with a smile as she invoke a spell equivalent to mage spell. “This spell has granted the monster extra strength by the surrounding magical properties. ” It gave Number 39 the force to overkill number 95.
“Alright Dashie you have the honors to order the attack.” Dark Magician said to Dashie which she nods at.
“ Thanks Dark Magician. Now Number 39 Utopia attack Number 95 with RISING SUN SLASH!” She shouts as Number 39’s sword glows as bright as the sun and slice Number 95 in half which cause an explosion. Which sent Mephile flying. After that Blue eyes and Number 39 disappear since the battle is over.
“Thanks for helping us. I’m surprise he played by the rules instead of trying to twist your powers.” Chaos said as he question. “So what are you going to do now?”
“Well before I head back to my Equestria, let give you some that will help.” Dark Magician first give Chaos a green glowing orb. This will remove any spells or seals that have place on any of your friends. He with a small smile.
“Well I wish to give you a gift, but the mare who usually does i-” A card appeared with Gagagashield to the magician. “Well I have been proven wrong. Here is your gift apparently.” Chaos was confused as it had ‘from Harmony’ tag on it.
“Thank you. I also have gift for Emerl for you to give this to.” He said as a book appear in his hand that give to Chaos. “This book will tell you all about the other displaces while it update itself when a new displace pops up.” He with calm look to his face.
“mmmm I think Harmony and fake Emerl mention something about internet, but I think this book will help a lot better.” Chaos stated as he took the book into his body.
“THERE YOU TWO ARE!!” Said an angry looking purple anthro cat who just step out of a portal.
“Blaze? What are you doing here?” Dark Magician asked looking confused.
“I’m going to guess another number pop up.” Chaos said as he let the Elements of Harmony out his body reverting back to Chaos Zero.
“No water boy! Dark Magician is needed because the changlings are attacking Canerlot. Blaze said glaring at Chaos and Fluttershy looked shock at what she just hearded.
“Well excuse me princess, I’m over 4000 years old so I can appreciate if you stop calling me boy.” Chaos snarkly remarked.
“Did you just use a old Link joke?’ Blaze asked while her right eye start to twitch.
“I don’t know who this Link is, but if you are as bratty as the reference, then yes.” Chaos snarkly replied not knowing what he just unleash.
“Calm down sis, we need to go deal with those bugs first remember.” Dark Magician said to her which she did so.
“Anyway thanks for your help. I wish um Harmony could greet you, but she is still asleep from some curse.” Chaos said as Merlina smile mischievously and responds.
“She needs a prince charming’s kiss to awaken.” Chaos turn red by the suggestion.
“Something tell me that be Emerl that will do the kissing.” Dashie said grinning.
“I knew her way before the faker, Tikal and I have a closer bond than him.” Chaos blurted out only to turn white. When lavender coated rainbow swirled mane mare came out of nowhere in her asleep ready to kick someone’s ass. “Oh shit!” Chaos whispered in fear as he attempted to run from the sleeping lavender mare as everyone stare at the scene.
“Your are in the dog house now bitch!” Blaze shouted out to Chaos as laughs at him.
“Oh my.” Fluttershy said as she watch.
“You can just suck meph-ow!” Chaos shouted he was blasted by his best friends magic as he turned and hope waking her will snap her out of it. When his lips touch hers it opened her green eyes as she still has a glare. “I know you told my secret, jerk!” She kick him in the parts any male held precious as she walked away from the embarrassment. Chaos fell by the pain as he grasps the injury.
Both Dashie and Blaze laughs at Chaos’s pain.
“That’s going to leave a mark.” Dark Magician said putted his hand over his parts.
Harmony walked over to the four as she held a card called ‘EradicatingAerosol’. “I will give you this if you don’t tell anyone my real name.” She was still red from the scene.
“Thank you and don’t worry. I won’t tell anypony about your secret. Also I got a gift for you too.” He said as a brown orb appear in his hand and give it to Harmony. “This has a spell I like to call Shits and Giggles just aim it at someone and it will cause them to fart as loud as the Princess can shout for a week.” He said with a troll smile.
Harmony giggled before she added. “Thanks I’ll see if a robot or ninja brat could be affected by it. By the way, I hope you meant anyone with that promise or you’ll be next on my list.” She gave a sweet smile on the last part as patted the magician on the back.
“Don’t you worry your secret is safe with me.” He replied as he open a portal. “Now I do believe it's time for me and my friends to go stop a bug problem.” Dark Magician as Blaze, Dashie and Fluttershy walk in the portal. “Bye for now and tell Emerl I said hello.” He said as he walk in and the portal closed.
“Well that went-” Harmony’s eyes widen as she realize her mistake. “I forgot to pinkie promise the cat and pega the daredevil. Well I hope they enjoy heavy things from the sky if they say anything.” She gave a maniacal laugh as Chaos who was still groaning on the floor said. “Damn you, fake bastard.”
Emerl vs Gemerl(Sombra)
The place that was used to be the toxin dragon's cave was reduced to rubble as the fight between the robot and essence human grew fast and fierce. The two have countered each of their own strikes creating sparks and destroyed land through battlefield. After another sword clash they separate far from one another as they repeat another in engage battle .
'Damn this guy is persistence in battle.' Emerl dodged a slash which release an energy strike capable of destroying a building as he attempted an explosive counterstrike slash.
{Sir Alan, I am satisfy you are enjoying this fight, yet I forgot to warn you of a time limit and condition in the super form.} The counterstrike failed as Gemerl blocked it with his sword which created an explosion around the area as a village sized crater was formed. Gemerl kicked Emerl off of him as he attempted to darkened the area.
'Wait there is a time limit? Oh yeah leave that out of the warning Sukai. Anyway, what are they?' Emerl manipulated his energy to clear the darkness off as Gemerl was at close range to strike. Thinking quickly, the human grabbed the robot in the face and slam him into the ground as the robot tried to slash on the incoming arm excepted it went faster than expected.
{The time limit was an hour, yet you were busy from enjoying the fight like a knight so we only have 20 minutes until the super boost wears off.} Emerl blasted the robot with a void version of the eclipse cannon. The blast made a deep hole as the robot was at the bottom abyss, yet ready to fight further on. {You should really avoid energy strike since he can recover because of them.} Sukai felt Emerl's irritation as the robot came at the human with a dark sonicboom. Emerl barely blocked the attack as his arm sockets almost crack by the pressure. {Oh yes the conditions, you just recently unlocked the power so you cannot merge the super state with a skill set yet. } Emerl silently cursed as he side-step from the sword clash struggle and used a energy charged side kick to hit the robot deep into the forest.
'You know that's bullshit! Anyway, I have less than 20 mins and I can not use the other skills. So my only hope is to damage the robot for excalibur form to finish him.' Emerl preparing to charge at the robot as he could sense the robot doing something. 'Besides he may absorb my energy, yet I'll be damn if I haven't 'will' my powers to harm his health and lowered his recovery rate. So he won't be getting 100% guarantee if he keeps touching me.'
Emerl notice that Gemerl's magic signature suddenly disappear until he sense something above as he quickly moved away from the spot by releasing the stored energy in his legs. The human ran with his might as he notice Gemerl shot a large amount of energy which forced Emerl to pump more energy through his body as he took a flight dash to escape. In a few seconds, a large mile ring where Emerl's spot used to be was blasted by an intense dark magic cannon which our super formed human barely made it by a few meters. Emerl noticed the hole seems similar to a bottomless abyss which may have damage him tremendously if it hits. Gemerl was slowly walking at the human with his body still fit for battle which made Emerl thought carefully of his next strategy.
{Here's a strategy what about Diversion-} Emerl cut him off as he thought of an idea.
' Then use my sword for the kill. Got it.' Sukai was about to object until his master went with his logic.
Emerl decided try a different tactic by releasing a barrage of energy beam, then boost his speed at light speed as he charge at Gemerl. The robot countered the energy by absorbing them, yet he didn't react when the essence human made a deep slash at his chest. The chest recovered from the damage as Gemerl released a barrage of chaos bullets at the essence human who quickly reacted by teleporting beside the robot and attempted a sword strike. Gemerl blocked the sneak attack with his sword single handed as he used his free hand to blast Emerl with a dark magic blast. It hit the essence human as he quickly recover before dodging from being skewed by his adversary's blade as Emerl countered by releasing a barrage of 20 slashes before ending it with a heavy slash wave that push Gemerl downward into the ground. The robot stands up and looked at the human with pure interest as Emerl notice something when Gemerl's aura changed from sadness to eagerness.
'I do not like the eager vibe in that aura.' Gemerl's color change as every yellow turned red, his blue eyes turned red and eyeliners turned green, and lines of crystals orbit around him. 'Oh fuck me!' What made the situation worse is that Gemerl's aura changed to a bloody crimson as the robot began talking in a sinister voice. “I've believe our little warm-up is over. Now bring on your true power so we can fight seriously.” Emerl stood as his jaws dropped and thought.
'Fuck me sideways.' Sukai felt like reminding Emerl two things.
{You do remember the art of sealing techniques during the time the demon took over right?} Emerl sweatdropped as Sukai sighed.{I swear Narue does not create me to deal with moronic knaves. You had 50 mins to use any Fūinjutsu to prevent this and you forgot. There are times I believe the demon when he calls you a 'dumbass'.} Emerl eye-twitched angrily at the sword as Sombra came at incredible speed toward the human.
When Emerl attempted to block the fast attack, he was hit by one of the crystals as it exploded upon impact which left him wide open to the sword strike. Sombra started with 3 lightning fast slashes and a rising slash, Emerl's body was hit by several crystal particles. Emerl received several broken bones after the assault as one of the outer rings began forming a sphere around him shooting lasers to contain him while damaging the human. Before Emerl could break out, Sombra unleashed a dark magic beam cannon to engulfed Emerl as the smoke cleared his body fall to the ground. Sombra came up to the human with disappointment as he said. “You're suppose to be a guardian? I was hoping a challenge, yet you have pushed me far so I will grant you a bliss oblivion.” Sombra teleports to the sky as his crystals positioned around Emerl. They morphed into pure dark magic sphere as Sombra focus his hand to form a ball of pure dark magic which Emerl decided to joke about his stituation.
'Well I'm boned. I wonder how being in the void feels like? I bet Death or Harmony will say I had one job.'
He stared at his surroundings knowing, if he can survive against this attack he has to deal with the crazy unicorn. 'Wait, I wonder if I should attempt to use a skill even though I'm not ready. Oh fuck it, what do I have to loss?' Emerl began focusing as he activated the only skill available.
{Wait, Sir Alan! Just use your Fūinjutsu to redirect the blast back to him and use teleport to avoid him and recover.} Emerl chuckled as he gave the sword a goofy grin.
'Sorry Sukai, I owe the guy at least to fight with me in a way. Besides I'm screwed if I run or fight so I rather go down fighting.' Sombra had enough power as he declared. “Alan you have fought with valor, but my darkness is my greatest power and it shall be your end!” He launched the attack as the all the dark spheres aim and hit the human which engulfed him a larger before Sombra release the dark ball which caused an explosion to whip out several mountains as it may have wasted a couple villages nearby. When Sombra inspect the damage he didn't find a speck of the human. 'May you come back stronger from the dead.” He was about to walk away until he notice a sphere of light suddenly appeared as it formed a human with a mysterious black coat as a giant phantom warrior appeared along side him. The human summon two keyblades: one was designed with Excalibur while the other seem like union of chaos and harmony colored in mix of green and red. He dropped his hood to reveal the same human except his hair was different, yet similar to the keyblader James.
“Hey Sombra, you may have your darkness, but my friends are my power!” The human declared as he and Sombra charged at each other with high speeds. When they were close to a sword clash, Emerl suddenly boost much further as the keyblades slash Sombra's body with a x mark. The crystals around him tried to retaliate, yet they were bounce off by the Emerl's aura as it counterstrike with it's two giant blades. Sombra dodge the attack, but he couldn't see the human as Emerl suddenly appeared behind him and unleash a barrage of 5 swift strikes. Sombra attempted to block only for the human to flash in a blinding light and appear behind him again. He repeated the same action before appearing in the bottom as Sombra's crystals fired a beam of dark magic at the human which was countered by several pillars of light striking above each crystals. Sombra was confused by the human's disappearance until he saw the pillars striking above him as he protects himself by creating a barrier from his new crystals. During the confusion, Emerl was behind him when the pillars attempted to strike as he used his blades to bat him off as the giant silhouette warrior began striking Sombra with 5 quick hits.
'How am I losing to this power!' Sombra grunted as he felt his darkness fading per each strike the keyblades were doing. 'I can't lose! I must fight for her!' Emerl sensed Sombra's heart grew more powerful as he blocked the incoming strike from the giant silhouette warrior before he clash his blade with one of the keyblades on one hand. When Emerl was about to strike with his free hand it was intercepted by a crystal blade Sombra formed out of nowhere. Emerl and Sombra battled rigorous with their dual blades when neither side were gaining an advantage over the other.
The fight between the rivals were fast as they clash around the area in light vs dark auras fighting for dominates until Emerl let his blades go and dodged the last strike. This confused Sombra before he notice when he blocked an incoming attack from Emerl a astral blade hit him from behind which let his guard off for his rival's final move.'Sombra I pray this opens your heart to what you've lost.' Emerl's badge suddenly glowed as Emerl was covered in holy light.
Emerl began a heavy blow to the gut which he chained it with 20 rapid punches as the astral blade followed by each action the master was doing. The light from each blow was overwhelming for the enslaved king as he could not focus his spells when he saw visions of his youth when he met Radiant Hope and the trouble that began his inner hell.
Flashback to Sombra's colthood
Sombra was by himself as bullies have mocked the colt for being different from them. He lacked the education and appearance to compete with the crystal ponies, yet one filly changed his life.
“Don't let them bother you. They said I was weird too.” a purple coated aquamarine mane crystal pony said. “If you want, you can be weird with me and we'll be weird together. Would that be okay?”
“Sombra will like that.”
They spent countless time with one another despite the foals' mockery and teasing. After he met princess Amore, he suffered from a unknown illness from his own magic. During a nightmare, he met a strange being in a dark void who changed his life.
“Hello young one.” a calm voice called as a grey older version of himself appeared out of nowhere. The colt was surprised by the appearance as he stare at the mysterious being.
“Who are you?” Sombra asked in pain from the darkness trying to spread to his body.
“Just a fellow being of darkness who wishes to help one another.” The copy answered as he walked around. “If you want call me Mephiles. I couldn't help, but notice you have a problem with your dark powers?”
“What do you mean dark powers? I'm just a ordinary colt?” Sombra was confused by the statement until Mephiles's horn glowed as Sombra's pain suddenly disappeared.
“ My friend you are more than a regular colt. You have the potential to become a king with your friend Radiant Hope as Queen by your side. If you want I can guide you to become a master of your powers?” Sombra gave a moment to think as he always wanted to be a ruler, yet he wasn't sure if his friend will like this. “Then again, if you want to return to the time pony have mocked you and your queen by calling you two Sombero and Pungent Dope.” That sparked some anger to Sombra as he remembers the other foals being jerks as all the time they ignored and berated them. He gave Mephiles a determine stare as he calmingly said.
“I would appreciate if you can help me, master?” Mephiles placed a hoof on his shoulder as Sombra asked. “I know I've agreed, yet don't you think we need an adult before starting?”
“I am an adult.” Mephiles said as he manipulate Sombra's darkness to cover the colt more quickly. “I will accelerate your growth so you can become the fierce leader you were meant to be, yet be warned it will quick and painful.” Sombra tried to yell only to have his body covered in complete darkness as he felt apart of himself died that moment.
Flashback end:
When the giant warrior outline returned it slammed the blades repetitively at Sombra as the astral blades trapped him in a sphere of light which made Sombra relive moments with his best friend. Emerl let his body float in the air as he direct the keyblades to release a final limit. A large ring of light surrounded Sombra as beams and spheres of light surrounded and began hitting him. Per each hit, Sombra's robot body began to slowly lose it's changed colors as it revert back to normal. “Sombra, you shall be free! Light give me strength!” Sombra felt the light ring around him release a beam as Mephiles's control was evacuated from his body as a lost soul merge with him. When it was over Gemerl released a unicorn with a ruby horn from it's body.
“Why did you save me?” Sombra stare at the human with pure confusion as Emerl transform back to normal.
“Why not, I felt that you were hurting and had to give my best to help?” Emerl gave a confident smile which vexed the red horn unicorn.
“We are enemies you twit!” Sombra growled as he felt Emerl came to him and flick his forehead before giving a serious stare.
“Sombra we are only enemies because Mephiles controlled you. Besides even if you would have been evil on your own I could have convince you to turn good.” Sombra scoffed at the human's naivety as he continued with a dark tone. “I mean the most evil you would have done is enslavement, yet you still have a friend who loves you regardless of your deeds.”
“Like who Amore, Radiant, or my teacher? I gave up that bullshit when I learned my origin and my willing decision, I would have been betrayed by them. You are wasting my time!” Sombra screamed as he tried to control the crystals to impale the human until Emerl grabbed his horn and slammed his face to the ground. “ Let me out so I can kill you!” Sombra trashed around only to found the human has an iron grip to keep him down.
“Yeah, that's a fine way to motivate your captors to free you.” Emerl stated sarcastically. “Now listen I've already gave a kingdom hearts moment, yet that didn't help so I will give you a brutal truth. Yes I would have killed you if I didn't know your past.” Sombra paused as he stop thrashing and listened. “I know you were bullied in life, some shadow pony by blood to destroy the Crystal Heart, and had some feelings for Radiant Hope. I will say this please don't ruin the moment by being a full time villain and not get the puss.” Sombra was confused by the statement as Emerl thought. 'Shit, I am definitely not cut out for a peacemaker.' He felt Sombra's body shake as he noticed anger in his tone.
“You freed me because of romance fantasy and pity? You mongrel! I don't need your bloody pity, especially to entertain your sick fantasies of being a horrid cupid!” Emerl was having difficult holding onto Sombra's horn. “I am the Sombra, King of the Umbrum! I bow down to no one! Not the princesses, not Mephiles, and definitely not to weak creatures like you!” Sombra unleashed a blast as it sent Emerl off him at the cost of using magic for a while as he held the human with his hooves. “Now any last words before I finish you?” Sombra positioned his horn to the Emerl's neck.
Emerl gave a smile and said. “Well I see you bow down to destiny, but you should know something Sombra. You shouldn't be what others or a stupid prophecy depict you, since only you know what you truly are and what actions to take. I only freed you from any influence by the corrupted effects you gained, yet you should be able to do any earlier abilities especially use Gemerl. So what would you do once you 'killed' me?” Sombra gave a moment to digest those words as he took the horn off the human.
“I will...” Sombra paused as he though about taking the crystal empire, yet he couldn't as Mephiles will stop him. Besides he lost the ambition to conquer the empire when it held too much burden memories than glory. Sombra wanted to go back to the simple times of life when he enjoyed life. He looked at the human who place a hand on his head. “I don't know? I was destined to destroy the Crystal Heart the moment my mother told me, yet I just want others to accept me.”
“Well I've acknowledge that you are a tough opponent and that we could be friends in another life.” Sombra felt a mix of sadness and joy for the compliment. “Besides you are more of a friendly rival right now, so I suggest finding a way to free your best friend before making any rash decisions.” Sombra gave a questionable leer as Emerl raised his arms. “Oi! I'm not being perverted and you know Radiant is the only mare who understood you well.” Sombra gave a growl as Emerl laid on the ground . “Sombra we can't help being born to what we are, as you're a shadow pony and I'm a essence of a bipedal ape who blow up his planet.” Emerl heard a laughter as he heard a /stupid monkey/, yet he continued. “I've already repeat my advice, so I will ask you this: do you like being alone?”
“No.” Sombra look done as he whispered. “I don't want to be alone.”
“I can't hear you, maybe I was talking to another umbrum?” Emerl asked pretending to be deaf.
“No.” Sombra began to raise his voice. “I don't want to be alone.”
“Well either I have hearing problems or you voice sucks.” Emerl taunted as Sombra gave a louder yell.
“No, I don't want to be alone.”
“Oh! I can hear you so I ask another one: do you miss your best friend?” Emerl asked
“Yes!” Sombra respond excitedly.
“Are you going to let a force tell you who you should be?”
“No, I am who I am and that's all that should matter.”
“Are you going to get stronger?”
“Yes!”
“ Will you marry Radiant after you rescue her?”
“Yes!” Sombra yelled until he realized what he said before giving the human a snarl as he chased the running Emerl. “I'll kill you! If you tell any being I will fry you out of existence.”
After a few moments of attempting kills, Emerl decided to ask Sombra a serious question as the umbrum gain back his magic.
“So do you know what future plans the creepy shade is planning?” Sombra sigh as he answered.
“Sorry Alan, he only gave me instructions while I've tried to search for the Crystal Heart.” Sombra prepared to ride the Gemerl as he added something . “By the way, you have my gratitude for releasing me from my enslavement, yet don't think I'm joining your alignment with the princesses.”
“Damn, I thought you would be my minion for saving you're ass or flank.” Emerl joked as Sombra controlled the Gemerl to create a dark portal. “Anyway, good luck on your new life.”
“Thanks and good luck finding Mephiles's bomb marks that he set around the whole planet.” Sombra smirk as he entered the portal before Emerl could question him.
'That bastard lied, he did know what the shady sonuvabitch was planning.' He heard a maniacal laughter as Sin commented. /Wow, you believe the asshole will be good knowing his nature. I will believe that he will rescue his whorse, but you know he will still portray himself as a villain. / Emerl ignored Sin as he focus on the task in hand. 'Now, I need to find the soul which...I forgot to get the sword containing the soul I needed.' Sukai decided to add a insult to his injury by reminding him. {Don't forget you also wasted your badge on Sombra so you can't cleanse the dragon soul. By the way, the stunt you pull to beat Sombra wasted most of your strength, so you're unable to do anything outside any normal human capabilities for a week. Luckily, it would be too long for any wild life sentients to come until a week.} Emerl bleached knowing he has to walk in human speed over 25 mi and he prayed the battle didn't buried the suit or that he could recover his strength. He just notice the sun was in the same position since he saw the mares as Emerl asked Sukai. 'Did you guys notice the sun? There is no way Celestia would leave it like that unless... activate sonic skill quickly.'
{Are you mad? Your body is barely living if you use a skill you can inflict permanent mental damage or die.} Emerl ignored Sukai as he activated a skill only to feel his body received tremendous pain as he felt his body wanting to explode. Emerl's clothes attempted to change colors, yet it glowed as Emerl's body exploded by the overload of power. Emerl landed to the ground heavily damaged as his injuries had overloaded his mind and fell to unconscious as his body disappeared from the empty wasteland.
Meanwhile back to Emerl's body
Emerl's essence returned to the body as it awaken, yet it acted different as he began to say something. “Wow the dumbass blew himself up.” Sin stare at his surrounding when he found himself trapped in a dungeon on a magic draining chair filled with many races(unicorns, centaurs, minotaurs, and griffins) with 'All Hail Tirek' insignia ready to dissect him. Sin would smile if he had lips. /Okay, these guys aren't his loved ones and they do not like the princesses. When did it became my Happy Birthday. I wonder if I should honor the slut's wish?/ Sin quickly changed his energy frequency to break out as he grabbed the first centaur scientist and snapped his neck. In less than a second, he teleported to the only exit in the room as he commented. “For a room filled with genius, you never thought if the A.I or your case the creature is an insane psychopath. By the way, I hope you like Neurotoxins because that will be your last breathe.” Sin forced a magic lock on the door as he release the gas in the air as many bodies fell to the floor. When five minutes pass, a strong centaur guard knocked on the door asking. “Is everything alright we heard yelling?”
“Oh nothing wrong, we just need more men to join the party.” a voice said as the guard tried to open the door.
“You 'geniuses' are suppose to work on a way to reverse the magic from the creature, so our Lord can harness it's supposed great power against his traitorous brother.” The guard finally got the door opened to see a room decorated in blood and flesh as a metal creature covered in blood rolling a clean skull with his hands. The guard tried to call for reinforcement until he felt a cold arm as the metal being pulled his body inside and strapped him into a chair.
“I need to have a word with you before deciding how you will die. Now be honest are you a virgin? Don't bother screaming, the area will filter the scream as a random Joe being tortured which is exactly what you are.” The insane robot snapped his fingers for piercing drills to appear on each of the victim's bone sockets. Any guards outside were worried as they heard a blood curling scream coming from the research room. They thought it was the prisoner being tortured as one of the guards thought while shivering. 'These researchers are being brutal on their experiments.'
Back to Simba
Simba is currently hiding in the deepest part of the woods as his predator wanders around. The creature came out of nowhere as he thought it was another prey, yet the creature somehow evaded everything he through at it. “Oh come here kitty, kitty, Auntie Surprises wants to give you a big hug.” A pegasus mare squeal out laughter as she flew toward the reduced demon, yet try as he might the hug of death had reached it's target. When he attempted to escape by biting it did nothing as the mare tighten the hug while chanting.
“Just what I always wanted. My own little kitty cat. I will name him George, and I will hug him and pet him and squeeze him.”
Simba roared out as he felt two soft, but steeled arms were squeezing his body. He described his situation similar to being a empty trash can in a heavy populated area.
“.....and pat him and pet him and... “
He couldn't breathe as the mares grip were crushing his lungs. He attempted using his powers, yet it didn't do anything as a force was preventing darkness to going near this abomination.
“...and rub him and caress him and... “
The shadow demon ignored the rest of the chant as he drift to unconsciousness. He still remember the event clearly as the creature came and diminish his instinct to that of a scared kitty.
Flashback
Simba had finish destroying the demon griffin and reaping her black soul as he was about transform back to normal. /Why transform back to that weak form?/ He heard the darker voice of his instinct as it tries to convince him. /Shouldn't this form prove to your master that you are powerful./ Simba stare at his tentacles and wings as he commented. 'Yeah I do like the abilities, but won't it scare some of my friends if they see me as a monster.' The shadows around him began taking a copy of his form as it gave a upright proud pose in front of him.
“Doesn't this look badass compare to being pitifully adorable?” The clone asked as the original stare with an awe and slight fear.
“Wow I do look like a predator, but I think being normal should be better.” Simba tried to return, yet he felt nothing change as the clone only chuckle.
“Sorry cub, but you can't go back as your love for the body is greater than your desire for normality.” Simba gave a glare before his new body felt a rush of power. “ You like the power don't you?”
Simba tried to resists, yet the rushing aderdeline, the predator urges, and power lust overcame the teenage cub. He felt his rational mind overtaken by the feral suggestions. /Now that you have accepted your true self, lets rampage Griffinstone./ Before Simba take a step, Surprise came down and shout. “Don't go to the dark side, even if they have cookies you can still get some being a hero.” The shadow demon stare at the mare with interest as his demon instinct was annoyed. /This is a evil being who murdered countless others into sweets./ Surprise made a frown as she pointed her hooves. “Wrong story pal, I'm a pegasus and different from cupcakes I mean. Kitty, you can't listen to the inner meanie he wants you to go evil, so he can eat souls.” The shadow demon was confused by the declaration as his regular lion instinct's scream 'do not fight' the mare, yet the demon urges were stronger. Simba commanded the shadows to cover Surprise in a dark sphere as he roared the sphere to shrink and curved until he heard her body was crush to mush under the pressure.
“Wow she is complete rounded to a ball. I wonder if that makes her a cakeball, no wait Gumball, nono maybe a crushberry swirl cake.” The shadow demon was spooked by the sudden voice of his suppose victim as he check to see a cake rounded into a ball. He was about to question the logic until he notice the mare on a tree branch eating the cake he curved. It baffled the demon further to find the cake missing from his possession after he just opened the sphere. He tried to glare at the mare only to find her in front of his face.
“You know having big teeth and claws isn't always the best to say you're scary.” Simba in his savage mind tried to bite her as she dodged. “I think it makes you look funny and silly like a bad costume in some party. Oh I wonder if we could party after this.” He attempted to grabbed her with his tentacles, yet she slipped through each one which irritated the demon. When he felt one of the tentacles touch the mare, his jaw drop as he was shocked that she was jump-roping with it. “Also, your tentacles are so long and fun. Watch me jump and make a chant.” She began to sing as a song and mysterious chorus began to voice out.
“It might seem crazy what I'm about to say
Sunshine she's here, you can take a break
I'm a hot air balloon that could go to space
With the air, like I don't care baby by the way”
/What the hell type of logic is this crap? Simba destroy this mare before./ The voice was tune out as Simba's body began to return back to normal. Every part of his body retracted as he tried to meow in tune with song. Surprise grabbed the cat as she continued.
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you know what happiness is to you
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like that's what you wanna do
After the song ended, Simba felt in peace as he snuggle onto Surprise as she examine him. “You know I don't think you have a collar? Mmmm Maybe you want to be my pet?” Simba was confused by the declaration as he attempted to escape the mare. His powers weren't working when some force is preventing his escape as he tried to negotiate his way out.
“Um miss I already belong to someone.” Simba announced as the mare stopped hug and held him directly in font of her.
“You can talk. Wow it will make things easier to know what you will say? I mean animals aren't suppose to talk, but it's so cool. Wait, do animals like sweets or is that something only talking animals enjoy? Then again I feed some griffins, dragons, and hydras cupcakes to escape and they seemed to like it. Maybe you are one of those black versions of those pasta eating cats? How am I suppose to get Stalian food if it's too far away?” She continued to ramble which freighted the demon cub as he tried to struggle away from the mare. Fortunately, she let him go as she gave went into a thinking position as she rambles. Simba tried to use his powers, yet he felt trapped as if a god wanted to humiliate him by enduring long tortures from the mare. He decided to run as any lion can to escape the chattering pegasus. “.. maybe I can name him Mister Bubbles, Jumba Rumba, or Hooverkins. Hey kitty, where are you going?” Simba was alarmed by the mare's notice he attempted to run further as she flew after him.
Flashback end
Simba prayed that no one he knows see him when he finally wakes up to find himself in a picnic as he notice a large tray of chocolate cookies. His mouth drooled as he smelled the warm chocolaty treats that purified lioness created with love and the holy grail to countless warriors. The shadow demon was about to take a bit of the scrumptious cookie until Surprise tackle him which ruin his moment of sweet abyss. The mare gave Simba a deep hug as the lion cried to tears.
“Oh kitty, I'm sorry for knocking you out. I just wanted to say thanks for rescuing me from meanie Jack and the monster griffin.” Surprise soften her hug to prevent a repeat as she asked a question. “So do you have name or can I call you Salem?” Simba snapped out of his trance as he glare at the mare.
“My name is Simba!” The demon yelled as he was irritated by the whole event. Surprise was a bit sadden by the outburst, yet continued to smile.
“That's a neat name Simmy. Do you know where your parents are at or does somepony takes care of you.” Simba body harden when he heard her ask about his parents. He gave a deep growl which startled the mare.
“If you don't want to get on my bad side, please don't ask any more questions.” Surprise felt her joyful personality slip as he continued. “ I've lost important people in my life and I don't need a stranger being buddy with me.” Simba wanted to be alone so he can focus on getting back to Emerl.
“Well I'd also lost somepony important.” Surprise said as her puffy hair turned straight flat as her body darkened. “They were the best ponies to ever have, I'd lost them to very big meanie ponies who wanted money from us.” Surprise shed a tear as she recalled the memory which Simba grew interested. “We did nothing wrong except being in the wrong place and time as my parents distracted the meanies from getting me. At first, I wanted revenge against those jerks, yet I felt that hatred is the reason I'd lost my best ponies.” Surprise gave a sad chuckle which made Simba worried for the mare as she continued. “I'd always wanted to be my own mare by making ponies laugh, yet my parents wanted me to be the typical solider. I'd told them I wish they would disappear and the next day Faust seems to have heard me.” Simba was a bit speechless as he felt a bit of sympathy for his fellow orphan.
“I'm sorry about the trouble of your grim past. If it helps mines were slaughtered and tortured by a corrupted king. It began when I was a younger cub..” Surprise was silent as she heard his tale about his father being killed and tortured. While his mother being raped then killed by feral members as it caused Surprise to cry about the event. Simba expected the response as he tried to ignore her, yet his gut told him to cheer him up. 'What makes this mare special to make her happy?' He decided to try something he learned from Harmony while on the Internet as he morph the shadows to create and play some instruments as he began singing to a song. He made several silly dances as Surprise was smiling to his attempt to cheer her up as her mane retain it's puff. After he was done she took out a fresh baked chocolate cookies and a large jug of milk from her mane as she giggled with full colors.
“That was so cute Simmy. By the way, my name is Surprise a party extraordinar and baker of goodness.” She gave a upright pose as Simba sweatdropped by the introduction. 'Next time bro ask me to hunt for him, I will say no and hit him with this mare.' The duo continued to eat their milk and cookies as Simba felt something has happened to his big brother as he ran off to home. 'By Leo mane, big bro why do I have this feeling you got yourself killed?' Surprise decided to follow him as she yelled. “Hey where you going? I thought we were bonding well?”
Next Chapter: Tales of Harmony (part 1) Estimated time remaining: 5 Hours, 35 MinutesAuthor's Notes:
Sorry for the long wait since I had to check a bit of grammar. Note if there are any Yugioh professional please do not overkill on the comment. Hey did you know we forgot the royal decree blocks the mirror force and magic jammer. I would call the judge, but he said "It alright nothing in yugioh usually makes no sense.".
Any Displace Authors who reads this: my partner DarkMagicEn-Forcer1 has declared that number monster from the anime Yugioh Zexal is release in the Displace verse. So if you are looking for a crossovers you can ask DarkMagicEn-Forcer1 for a call. The monster's can not be killed unless another xyz monster kills it, despite that there are cards to get around that.
Anyway, Dark Magician, any number monsters, and summons by dark magician is own by the owner DarkMagicEn-Forcer1 who made the story Dark Magic Attack!. Plus, I do not own yugioh or I would have Konami and countless people coming to kill me.
By the way Mephiles is alive, it was a clone the group faced. Now I will like to ask if anything in terms of the ooc Sombra behavior, Surprise fixing the problem in that matter, or Emerl alter ego going to slaughter. By the way, any suggestions of tag since I'm going to insert gore now.
Roxas moves based on these games mix with a little change:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diM9DPid9Qk
If you ask why Emerl didn't use any other spells: I would consider a glitch for using James with void as only light based spells can be used. I like Xion and Roxas in Kingdom Hearts as they make a good sibling or couple pairing.
Surprise I think I did okish, yet I felt there was a way to improve it.
So I hope you enjoy the story and happy reading on your future journey.
By the way the might of the blue eyes yellow dragon aka flutter dragon it has 3000 atk and 2500 def it's effects is gain the extra attack points by the fluttershy fan service. So that dragon is not something to joke. I'm kidding unless you guys want it to be true.
