Scales of Harmony
Chapter 27: Chapter 21- Bearing ends, The sinister six, Resurrected evil (version 1)
Previous Chapter(Back to the Doctor and the others)
They had arrived to the south hall to support Emerl towards his battle with the Ursa Major as everyone was gearing up for battle. Celestia and Luna were discussing with the Doctor about the journal. They examine any particular information about the threat they are facing. The colts were forming battle plans of a sneak attack/support against the Ursa Majors until their Master bashed them on the heads and stated. “You three were lucky against that demon. I expect you colts to stay here with Simba, Diablo, and Mushu, while we handle the Ursas.” The three groan until she pointed towards the battle. The mark musketeers saw four enormous figures which were bigger than several villages combine fighting with intense combat. They were amazed by the lightning speed and sheer power until they noticed a phoenix ursa unleashed a giant inferno which made a crater larger than their last opponent. The massive damage frighten Apple Crusher and Onyx Gem as they thought they could last for seconds, yet Silent Dash was still determined to fight.
“Wow this is awesome, but I think we could handle it.” Silent Dash boasted with excitement while his teammates gave him ‘crazy looks’.
“Silent we barely beat the demon and he’s like a tiny fraction compared to this.” Onyx Gem tried to reason as the pegasus only scoff.
“Oh come on! We have the princesses, a powerful metal golem, and a master who got trained by an ancient earth dragon; don’t you think we can beat them faster if we join.” Silent suggested before Apple smack some sense into the pegasus. By that, he literally smacked the overconfident pony by the backside of his head.
“We will actually be in the way if we join. Especially being inexperience to fighting giant monsters the size of a Mountain.” Apple pointed out the flaw in their plan, while Silent rubbed his head. The pegasus was about to object before being asked. “Do you like beginners getting in the way?” The azure pegasus shook his head. “Then let the pros handle this.” The pegasus colt hated sitting by the sides, but he knew when he was outvoted. He felt a hoof ruffle his mane as he saw the Doctor was nearby him while the princesses and their sensei went ahead in the battlefield.
“Silent, here is an advice I told someone once, ‘there’s a considerate difference between courage and reckless stupidity.’ “ The Doctor quoted himself as Ditzy looked at him puzzled.
“Don’t you usually head straight to danger, though?” The timelord coughed at the question
“Ditzy, I don’t seek danger. It just comes to me for my amusement.” He said it with pride.
“So how long are you two staying?” Simba asked with a deadpan expression.
“Depends if your owner is sane enough to control himself.” The time time lord stated with a grim expression.
“I’m sure he is sane enough to handle any situation in a calm and quick manner.” Simba tried to reason until they heard a shout.
“WHY IN DEAR LORD ARE YOU BEARS TELLING ME ABOUT YOUR SEX LIVES??!!” They heard one of the Ursas roared as Emerl responds. “NO ONE NEEDS TO KNOW HOW BIG THE DAMN THING IS DURING BATTLE!!” The Doctor gave a skeptical look to the cub who facepawed.
“Damn you and the Ursas.” Simba flatly mutters.
The giant mech had dodged an incoming magic blast from the centaur ursa as he charges towards her. Emerl performed three quick punch followed by a drill punch which pushes the beast back. The other two Ursa released a snowstorm and inferno blaze towards the gunmen in hopes of inflicting heavy damage. Emerl thinking quickly surround himself in a green drill barrier to repel the attacks back to their opposing owners. The direct hit caused the duo to be knock out for the moment.
Emerl focused on the centaur ursa charging towards him. When she was close for a strike, the beast disappeared and reappeared behind the giant mech in the last second. Before Emerl can react she constrict him by wrapping her arms around his body, while beginning to absorb his energy. However, what concerns him is the Ursa’s method of absorption.
“Are you bear hugging, while getting a feeling out of me?” Emerl asked with concern.
[MMMM. That energy taste so magnificent!] The Centaur Ursa oohed by the chaos energy she was recieving. The robot eye widen as he tried to struggle to free himself from this beast's grip. [I was made to handle powerful beings such as Discord, while being immune by the after effects of absorption! So please my little toy, don’t hold anything back!]
Emerl could feel his body going sluggish as he felt 25% of his energy being drained in less than 10 seconds. In one quick move, he focus his back into a drill which penetrated the draining Ursa Major’s stomach. She groaned as she tried to drain his power quickly, while trying to destroy the drill inside her.
[Give up, toy! Your body can’t last for 15 seconds! If you do, I may upgrade you to be my slave instead!] She growled with arrogance as she felt the drill crumpling by her insides. However, a sudden rush of power burst through Emerl as she felt a bit of her own being drained. She was puzzled by the sudden turn of event. [You should be on your knees, toy! How are you doing this? ] The giant mech aura grew tremendous as the drill began to enlarge through her intestines.
“Who the hell do you think I am!?” Emerl shouted as his body began to break free from the bearhug. “You believe my power is just Chaos, but you don’t understand the spirit of a man can prevail through all!” The aura spread across the battlefield as the princesses and audience were awed by intense blessed spirit. The aura shined to the beckon of the dome as the audience felt a warm feeling towards their hearts. “Now take this! My love, my anger, and all of my sorrow!” He initiated the drill as the Ursa Major felt her body spiral out of control rapidly while blood and organs were spewed out of her. The giant mech unleashed a blast through the drill as it pushed the Ursa off, then created an explosion as it overcame her and the remains of her mate.
The two remaining Ursa Major woke up just in time to see their aunt murdered as they roared in fury and charged at the giant mech. When suddenly a large fire ball hit the wendigo Ursa in the face as the Phoenix Ursa felt drowsy, which made them miss their target. Emerl noticed the princesses along with Buttershe had appeared by his shoulders.
“Any reason why you guys are still here?” Emerl asked with an annoyed tone only to receive a hoof smack from the yellow mare.
“Simple idiot, we want to be.” Buttershe stated while removing her blade from her sleath and released a strong natural aura. “Besides, you’re taking far too long on ending this battle.” The princesses only eye rolled by the hidden reason. The yellow mare rode on top of the blue alicorn who set her eyes on the phoenix ursa.
“Sir Emerl, go handle the dwellers in the cave, while we handle these pests.” Luna demanded.
“Are you sure?” Emerl question their decision before he warned them. “These are mutated giant bears capable of killing you.” Both sisters snorted by the statement.
“If it was before Discord these two would have require the Elements of Harmony.” Celestia said before leaving out a confident grin. “Now I think it’s time to cut loose.” Her horn glowed as she removed her royal clothes and seals. It landed on the floor creating a large crater. Her magic aura began to flare off tremendously as it covered the room with heated power. The Gizoid had to admit they each could probably take him down if planned well enough.
“Okay that clears my worry.” Emerl stated covering his eyes. Luna repeated her sister’s action as she was careful to contain her strength with her passenger on board.
“I’m surprise you’re bodies were able to handle that amount of power.” Buttershe commented with slight amazement, before her face turned into a scowl. “You two didn’t release it earlier why?”
“Well we wanted the other warriors to try. Besides it would have been a good surprise to keep the best for last.” Luna tried reasoning only to be whacked by her earthly companion.
“I swear to Faust you two are picking up his habit.” Buttershe mutters as she release her restricts as well. Though it is definitely less than the sisters, yet it can be extremely difficult for earth ponies to move or survive for long. She stared at her opponents before calling out their objectives. “ We’ll take the roasted Chicken, while Celestia kills the potential wraith!”
“Wait that things a wraith!” Emerl exclaimed with surprise. Especially when he realized the ghost Ursa seemed to be growing stronger by the exerted hatred from the room. “Well I wish you luck, Sunbutt.”
“You know we are going to discuss about your outlets after this.” Celestia sternly demands with a frown. She was worried with the excessive violence and gore method he had shown recently.
“Well excuse me princess, I forgot to take my meds today.” Emerl retorted with sarcasm, while he turned to the west hallway. “Anyway, I hope you can handle a giant frosty yandere.” He ran towards his destination. Celestia felt an insult has been given by the princess comment before disregarding it and focus towards the battle.
“He really needs to talk about his anger problems.” Celestia worried of her friends behavior while teleporting away from the giant ursa’s swipe. She returned the favor by unleashing a subatomic sun blast to the ursa’s side which launch the beast to a wall. She created two large astral blade and charge towards the mutant ursa with intent of vanquishing her foe.
Ursa Cave
Emerl expected an unbeatable evil ursa created to destroy the fabric of existence itself, yet the being was just lazily on the ground. The giant mech’s reading told him it was stronger than Discord when he went dark primal.
The ursa was a draconequus mutant, yet it had the body parts of a phoenix left wing, green dragon right wing, the center body was a turtle mix with spikes on it’s back, spiral alicorn horn, cerberus tri-heads(demon wolf, basilisk, and thunderbird) a blue bear left back paw, grey lion right back paw, two elemental paws of ice wind and earth. ‘Holy Lord of any mercy, how many mutations did this one suffered?’ The giant robot thought with caution as he slowly sneak up to the creature. When he suddenly heard a young girl’s voice echoing the cave.
“I know you’re there, mister Emerl.” It spook the robot as he prepared for battle. “I don’t want to fight, especially to someone who is close to my friend.” The robot was confused by the ursa’s words.
“It depends on who’s your friend?” Emerl being skeptical until he felt a tap by his side. He turned only to eye widen by the person. He did not expect this person to ever come to his reality on his own. “Sin, how did you get out with a body?” The corrupted version was happily sitting by the giant mech’s shoulder with a mischief smile from the question.
“Let’s just say I received some counselling and decided to use my time wisely.” The teenage silver hair human stated with an amused tone. Emerl only glared at his supposed abomination with hatred and disbelief when he mention time in a obvious tone.
“You time traveled to my present why!” Emerl exclaimed in anger.
“I’m only here on a personal matter, besides this is more of a past to me.” The corrupt copy told the original. Sin went to the draconequus ursa and began to petting on one of her snouts. This made Emerl wonder what happen in the future for this creature to change into a decent being. "By the way, kill all the pest in the cave." That surprise the robot by the corrupt version's hospitality, yet he still was cautious thinking it might be a plot.
“So anything happened in the future?” Emerl reprise his question in a civilized tone.
“Nothing interesting happened except you became evil, but Squirrel Girl came and kicked your ass.” Sin jibbed before the ursa began slobbering him. “ Heel girl! I can handle so much bear saliva before puking." The ursa cub gave an amuse pout before she began licking Sin's sides. It made the corrupt creature laugh in a genuine demeanor while he tried to push her back. The gizoid witness one of the deadly versions of himself being submissive to a large teddy bear as he resist the urge to laugh in sheer madness. After a good minutes, Sin cleaned himself and returned his gaze to the gizoid. "Anyway, I blocked my past self from any recordings concerning me. So ask anything as long it doesn’t bring up my own pasts or screws with my future.” Emerl had doubts on this person being his terrific damnation of hell, but his sensor told him the clone was a match. Besides the fact, this version of Sin is stronger than Harmony at the moment.
“When did you meet this ursa and what's her history in this?” Emerl asked while eyeing the ursa who gave a sad expression. The corrupt double stared at her for a moment before one of her heads nods for a approval of something. "Sorry if this that is asking alot."
“She doesn't mind, since we are technically the same person." Sin began to tell a small summary of what happened. "During my past times, I was bored and decided to explore time, since my hobbies weren't entertaining me for a bit." This spark a curious into the robot until Sin narrowed his eyes knowing what he'll ask. "I'm not telling you what it is. so suck it."
"You know that makes me want to know more." The gizoid pointed out only to receive a bird from Sin.
" Too bad Robo Sparkles." The corrupt double returned back to his train of thought. "Anyway, I found this little cub in a lab being experimented for the project that made her into what she is now. I normally wouldn't care until I saw something in her that interested me.” Sin explained while the ursa’s body trembled by the memory. The gizoid winced from her reaction of the memory as if a pup was abused by his owner for the joy of tormenting. The future corrupt double petted the ursa to calm her down before trying to give a short summary. “Basically they wanted her along with the Yogi family to breed like crazy and created an army. Luckily, you mysteriously stopped them and the army before it could begin.” Emerl nods to his somewhat understanding of the result from that.
"Let me guess you can't recall what happened, while Sukai and I were the only ones." The robot hypothesized, yet a thought still remain on the matter. "What would have happened to the cub, if you didn't came? I mean there had to be a one in order for the remaining step to come in."
"Well I traveled way before you guys came, so I'm completing a time loop to avoid time rift and Reapers from coming." Sin answered before snapping his fingers for a glass of strawberry smoothie. "Trust me don't question the multiple what ifs, but do know I found a way to live without needing you." He began to sip on the drink before noticing the cub's avian head was starring with thirst. The entity only eye rolled before he used his powers to make a giant tri-flavor cup appeared in front of her with three straws attach. Two of the three heads shook their heads at their body's childish, yet joined for a refreshing cold drink.
"So who did you visit before you became this?" The original was curious about this version of himself being free and peaceful. This made the corrupt future copy laugh at the original being a curious as the cub let out a large bletch that echo through the cave. The giant creature gave an embarrassed look as she whispered 'excuse me' in the softest voice she could muster.
"Sorry spoilers." Sin spoke with a satisfactory grin. The Gizoid was about to persist before feeling a slight poke to the leg from the ursa cub urging him to respect with Sin's decision. The corrupt entity snapped his fingers for several large hands to pet the mutant's head and belly as she purred like a kitten from every touch. It's a rare thing to see a power creature being yield by tummy rubs and petting like a dog to oppose towards what he expected the alternative would have been.
"I don't know if I'm sane or my insanity is just repeating this definition over again," He shook his head the event unfold in front of him. "then again I'm an robot in a world filled with mythological creatures along the multiverse theory being more influence here ." The duo gave a small laugh at the stupid wording. The large ursa gave a puzzled expression at the joke before assuming it was a personal thing or something.
“You know how my past self would react if he saw us like this?” Sin asked with an amuse tone making the original gave a chuckle.
“I bet he would try to stab his eyes own out of disbelief.” Emerl joked around as Sin laughed at the stupidity of it.
“Haha, dumbass. Just know that you still suck compare to me." The original eyerolled at the corrupt double's arrogance before noticing sadness in his eyes. "You know, I’d visit her from time to time to have some fun and preserved her mind from the pain.” He gave a soft kiss to the giant bear's cheek. “I guided her through the powers of chaos, while prevented any horrors those jackass would try to pull. However, history kinda force me to sit back since she needed to toughen up” They both looked at the ursa who stare at Sin with a sadden expression. "You know I don't like seeing you this, besides there were stronger forces holding me back at times."
"I know, but you sometimes do some bad stuff to yourself whenever you feel bad." She pointed out while two of her heads(wolf and bird) affectionately snuggled with Sin. "You did what you can." The original found it adorable when something he assume was evil blush by the gentle race rubs of a giant kid monster bear.
"I'd always thought that being a mix abomination of corrupted souls and power would lead me to eternal hatred for I represent the thing they fear." The gizoid seemed interested in the story as Sin continued. "It's troublesome days of traveling with memories, experience, essence, and many things I rather not have lingering into me and demanding myself to gather more. In addition, my desire to torment you." The gizoid's body grew tense by the declaration before the corrupt double gave a laugh. "Hey, I have more control of my urges than the current me you have or I would had you dismantled before sending you to sonic boom game-verse with amnesia." Emerl paled by the harsh punishment as he rather suicide than go to a nerf sonic verse.
The Ursa cub suddenly began to fade from their eyes. She tried to oppose the change only to feel sleepy as Sin place a hand on her head and rubbed for her to embrace the change. Emerl was greatly concern for the giant bear. “So what’s happening to her now?”
“I’m reincarnating her to a different life.” Sin said with a slight sadness in his tone. The cub gave her friend a disagreed pout before bumping her large claws onto Sin's body. He grabbed it with ease before setting it down with a stern look on his face "Hey don't you object at least you'll come back into something that other species might talk to. Besides you'll have more friends by this." The cub stared at Sin with a deep and serious look as Alan felt that she didn't to disappear yet.
"You know I can just change my form, right? Besides you're the only friend I'll need" She argued with a hint of hope before the corrupt entity shook his head.
"Sorry, but you knew I'd use this method to remove your haunting memories. Besides it somewhat pains me to see you scream at night." Sin replied with a concern tone. She sad sigh knowing how persistence her friend is as she had to know one thing.
"Will I ever met you again at least?" She asked only to be confirmed when Sin's lips turned upwards with a friendly vibe. "Then thanks for caring for me, Sin." She closed her eyes embracing her soon to be rebirth on the next life. The gizoid could see a pain from his double's eyes as she completely disappeared with a small gust to the wind to remain.
“I’m sorry.” Emerl simply apologizes for his double's mourning.
“Don’t be a dumbass, I’d learned to cherish people from her.” Sin let out a small chuckle until he noticed a tear drop fall on his face. “Anyway, I'm going back to my present before you try to infect me with mental retardis.” The corrupted copy wipe the tear before making a portal back to his time. “Make sure the princesses get their exercise before wasting the trash or they’ll become rusty and fat.” He jumped into the vortex leaving Emerl dazed by what he witness.
“I guess it was good to spare him.” Emerl commented as he heard familiar thoughts in his head.
/Oi dumbass, what happened? I couldn’t sense you or even tap into your memory?/ The present Sin asked confused by the lack of information while Sukai was laughing. /The hell are you laughing at?/
‘Oh nothing, just an inside joke and I went into a tunnel.’ Emerl thought while joining Sukai on the laugh.
/Bullshit!/ Sin muttered with annoyance as he exploded in anger. /Tell me what’s so damn funny, assholes?!’/
‘I’m laughing at the time when Harmony and I first went to Las Vegas.’ Emerl tried to explain while laughing inbetween.
{Oh yess *snicker* it’s just something I remembered from my many wielders when they gamble like fools.} Sukai explains as the corrupted copy stares at the duo in confusion.
/Whatever idiots, I got important shit to do./ The corrupted copy left the mental conversion frustrated.
‘So how much did you hear.’ Emerl asked while Sukai recovered from his laughter.
{I know more than enough, though I did not expect he would care for a mutated teddy bear.} Sukai explained with slight chuckle remaining . {Though be warned, he did made a challenge competition in your inner world.}
‘What kind?’ Emerl question with curiosity, yet caution into his tone.
{He created a portal to an alternate dimension where the tokens you collected will take on the Displaced form it originated from.} Sukai explained making Emerl worried.
‘So Kirby arena except I have to battle abnormal versions of each Displaced token I’ve gained. Great‘ Emerl responds with sarcasm on the last part.
{You should be able to invite someone if they rather face themselves or other displaced you have met.} Sukai suggested as Emerl seemed a bit ill by that.
‘I don’t think it’s good idea. Beside they’ll be busy doing something else’
The Duo began to chat in the empty cave explaining the situations going on inside and out of his body.
Meanwhile with the ponies battle (Luna & Buttershe vs Phoenix Ursa mutant
Luna was dodging rapid fireballs and heat waves from the blazing Ursa Phoenix mutant; while Buttershe covered the azure alicorn’s back by slashing down any incoming attack. The creature was relentless in her assault as she unleashed a giant volcanic laser which Luna was lucky to dodge by a mere second. When the beast reached a resting point the duo quickly direct their plan into action. Luna cast a telepoint spell to appear in front of the phoenix’s face as she blasted the beast with a magic shot. It dazed the mutant as Buttershe jumped off of Luna and unsheathed her blade as she pumps nature energy into her body. The creature only saw a disappearing blur of the mare, before hearing the sound of steel piercing flesh could be echo heard as she reappears towards the ground safely.
In a split second, the beast felt several parts of her body detached including her eye as it popped with gushing blood being flown through similar to a dam overflow. The giant phoenix bear knew her body wouldn’t be able to survive in this state as she focused a tremendous amount of magic towards her being. Luna fearing for her comrade quickly grabbed the Earth Pony and teleport far from the mutant as the phoenix beast exploded. The explosion covered at least half a city which Luna easily condensed it to prevent widespread damage. They landed safely towards the ground as the earth pony got off her back, while the moon princess felt pride in their achievement.
“Huzzah sensei! We’ve defeated the beast without fully exhausting ourselves.” Luna cheered only to be whacked by the Earth pony.
“It’s still alive.” Buttershe scolded the moon princess with narrowed eyes as she saw the heat energy moving unnaturally. “Get ready for another round.”
“Impossible sensei, a phoenix can only rebirth when it’s life is near it’s natural end.” Luna tried to reason as she stared at the mutant’s spot where no physical parts remains. “Besides, we have slain the creature to a point it’s ashes are gone.”
“I sense the bitch is still alive by the heat.” Buttershe commented as the mutant’s body resurrected itself by the energy around it. The body still has some of the implanted damaged by the scarred wings, legs, and a damaged eyeball. “It seems physically killing her does nothing unless we eliminate the ability or mind.” She glanced at Luna with a cold glare which signaled a more harsher motive is needed. The azure princess sigh as she despise using this method.
The beast unleashed an instant fire blast as Luna quickly grabbed Buttershe and teleported behind the mutant. The giant ursa quickly turned and swipe the duo as the azure princess blocked the incoming attack with a barrier. The swipe pushed them nearly into the wall as the yellow mare quickly rode onto the blue alicorn. The night princess suddenly heard a voice in her head.
‘Hello Lulu.’
‘Yue, I’m sorry, but I can’t speak right now.’ The ursa mutant charged at the duo as it released several fireballs. Luna thinking quickly compressed the surrounding landmass to create a scale version of the moon which was twice the size of her opponent. She fired the giant sphere of rock at the beast. The mini-moon countered the fireballs until it was destroyed by the mutant’s fury. The mutant engulfed herself with inferno flames as she prepares to release an explosion.
‘Why not use me or at least the clone for help?’ Yue asked with a hurt tone. Luna quickly teleport away from the blast when her opponent reached critical point. Like several times before the mutant’s attack missed by her opponent’s cursed teleportation spell.
‘I thought I shouldn’t take you for granted; so I was hoping of handling this myself.’ Luna thought while feeling guilty as she blast a beam at the mutant. The phoenix ursa shielded her eyes before finding the alicorn in front of her. Before the mutant could react, the blue alicorn’s horns glowed as the mutant’s senses were rendered completely blind as she wandered out in the battlefield.
Luna arrived to a safe distance towards the ground before she asked her earth pony teacher. “Alright I’ve disabled her senses for a minute, so what’s the plan?”
‘Use me or the clones, you idiot! ’Yue demanded with annoyance.
‘I can’t.’ Luna softly muttered in her mind.
‘WHY NOT?!’ Yue boomed with anger in her tone. Luna held a hoof to her head by her dark half’s volume. Buttershe noticed her student was behaving strangely.
“Luna I hope you aren’t having a mental breakdown, because I would appreciate your assistance against this thing.” The earth pony mare voiced out with slight concern.
‘I don’t want to lose you like the others!’ Luna admits as she only heard silence for a moment. The blue alicorn felt concern when Yue didn’t respond for a while. ‘Yue are yo-.’ She was interrupted by mental smack to the head. She winced a bit before hearing dark half give a sigh.
‘Idiot, just summon me.’ Yue voiced out with a determined tone. ‘I appreciate the concern, but I’m technically you.’ The dark alicorn gave a chuckle before continuing. ‘Tell me, when have you ever like to sit back from being part of the action? Besides, I needed a good workout.’
Luna was about to object until a dark powerful portal appeared beside her. Yue walked out of the portal with glory as Buttershe stared at the dark alicorn copy with confusion.
“Luna what type of clone is this?” Buttershe asked with curiosity. Yue gave a chuckle as she flare her wings in pride. “Did you gave this one extra darkness, because it stinks like a skunk piss of it.” The dark half of the alicorn glared at the yellow mare with irritation.
“Well your power reeks of dung and maggots, yet you don’t see anyone else complaining about that.” Yue replied rudely as the yellow earth pony glared at the clone while twitching her hoof ready to dispose of the clone.
“Can both of you, please don’t provoke each other now. We still have a powerful opponent to deal with.” Luna berated the ponies while Yue snorted at the word ‘powerful’. The mutants senses were slowly returning as she turned towards the earth pony and the alicorn duo.
“Powerful my flank!” Yue declared as she made several clones of herself. “Come on, Luna summon up your army or do I have to do this myself.” The dark half declared as the original gave a sigh and mimic the dark half’s move. “Good, the night shall rain with Phoenix blood.” The clones charged towards the mutant who attempt to swipe at the army; yet it didn’t expect some of the clones to teleport in front of her and explode in her face. The ursa major hybrid felt drowsy as more clones attempted to repeat the same action.
The mutant growled as she released a blazing barrier to block the incoming clones as she charges towards the trio. Yue eye rolled as her horn glowed while Luna was puzzled on what her dark half is doing. The mutant noticed a sphere of wind surrounding her as the oxygen from her barrier is being removed. She tried to generate a greater flame only to feel intense cold by another source of magic blocking the heat from being generated. After a few minutes, the mutant stood as a frozen statue with a glowing energy mass in the center. Both Luna and Yue focused their horns together as the energy mass tried to concentrate on escaping it’s prison. The mass tried to stretch towards the ice prison wildly for a moment before it suddenly calm down and stayed in a motionless position.
“There sensei we have trapped her into a vegetable state, so perform your seal to prevent a full resurrection.” Luna declared in a frightened tone. She has never thought she would use her dream magic to comatose a living creature. It felt like destroying a fragile glass made of flesh or a foal, which was mortified for this abuse of power. Buttershe nodded as she cut her hoof and planted the blood onto her blade. It glowed with crimson blood as she used her hooves to maneuver the blood to create ‘null-resurrection/healing’ seal.
‘Luna, she was a savage monster who would had slaughter countless beings in her path.” Yue reason as she comfort her good half with a wing.
‘How can I trust either of us not to perform a repeat by accident.’ Luna thought with worry about the consequences. Yue paused until she remembered something.
‘I despised the bastard for hurting you; however I learned from him a powerful promise. It could rival towards the blood oath to powerful deities.’ Luna felt interested especially when she felt her dark half embarrassed about it.
‘Yue what is this promise called?’ Luna asked her dark half with determination.
‘I didn’t care for the name, yet it begins like this: You make your oath, then say” A recording of a particular earth pony echoed in Luna’s mind. “[Cross my heart and hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye! ],” The recording stops as Yue continued. “and finally you make a dance with a filly clone as both of you skipping your hooves, crouch down in your front and place your hooves over your eyes, rise up do 3 clap, and shake you’re flank.’ The dark half explains while trying to hold a chuckle as Luna gave a unamused stare at her.
“You are much more an annoyance now than before the transformation.” Luna muttered as it made her feel slightly better. Buttershe stabbed the mutant’s power source. It faded away indicating the creature has been slain.
“Enough comedy hour, let’s help your sister before the wrath becomes too powerful.” Buttershe said with a serious tone. “A wraith strength can be based on either time of hatred gather or life consumption.” Luna scoffed on her sensei’s words as she felt confident of her sister.
“Please my sister is the alicorn of the sun, I doubt a spirit beast can defeat -.” Luna was cut off when Celestia slammed behind them. It shut the blue mare up as her dark half began to laugh.
“What happened Solarplot beginning to feel old or your figure has caught up to you.” Yue mocked the sun alicorn who glanced at Luna with irritation while the dark half continues. “You should lay off the midnight chocolate cakes, but that would be like telling you not to raise the sun.”
“Luna you seriously created a this type of clone at a time like this.” Celestia raged only to receive a tongue out from said clone. The sun princess glared at Yue before calming herself and focus back to the problem. “Nevermind, this Ursa somehow obtain more power in the mere moment that I was about to finish it off.” Buttershe seemed to noticed the mutant’s aura contained about 3 more Ursa souls.
“It must have devoured the souls of the other Ursa after their deaths.” Buttershe mention with a grim expression.
Yue seemed skeptical about the situation. “Celly could have focus her magic to release a beam to destroy the brain before it could do anything.” Yue pointed out with a disappointed look at sun alicorn. “However, it seems her ego and overconfidence has resulted to our downfall.“ Celestia seemed a bit peeved by the clone’s words.
“Luna can you tell the clone to be quiet? She isn’t helping at the moment.” Celestia angrily demanded her sister who is facehoofing by the immaturity between the two.
Luna was about tell both of them off before she was cut off by the ursa mutant’s roar. They only had seconds to noticed a shadow above as a part of the ursa’s paw suddenly appeared above their heads. Before it could crush the four ponies, a drill beam of rainbow suddenly soared through the battle field and destroyed the limb at lightning speed. The mutant roared in anger and pain by the lost of its appendage before it regrew a new one. The beast glare at his assailant with hatred, when a pair of boomerang shades launch towards the beast which immobilized it’s abilities to escape. Everyone stared at Emerl who is walking towards the battlefield with a rainbow aura.
“I leave you girls to handle the remaining ursas and you leave the craziest one last.” The robot scolded in disappointment before teleporting the princesses in front of his stomach.
The alicorn duo were confused by his actions. “Sir Emerl what are you doing?” Luna asked with a bad feeling in her gut.
“Nothing just giving this body a boost without wasting too much of my strength.” He explained as the mech opened it’s chest mouth. Everyone eyes widen by the sudden action. The Ursa stared with interest by the creature willing to kill his own allies for power.
“It involves eating us?” Celestia questioned with a worried tone. She noticed the giant mouth was hollow inside as if a complete void to the unknown. The duo were nervous of going in there while Luna voiced their concern.
"Are you sure this is safe?"
“Maybe, er don't worry it's safe." Emerl assured with confidence despite the slip up. The sisters were unease by the statement as the robot had to act quick. "I’m giving you 2 seconds to get ready.” The duo didn't react fast enough as the chest mouth quickly swallowed the alicorn duo. The princesses only had one thought to the experience. ‘If we survive this, I'm going to supernova/mind crushing this fool.’ They disappeared into the robot which horrified majority of their audience on the ground.
The ursa mutant found the event amusing before she focus on the task at hand. Dark energy began to enter through the room only for the beast to absorb it. The shaderang thrust into her body were destroyed by it's metamorphosis. It grew 5 times her body as horns began to form on her sides and back. Her body grew more feral while her thoughts vanished and overcome by primal instincts. She attempted to crush her opponents under her paws the moment her transformation ended. Luckily, Emerl dodged by teleportation with Yue and Buttershe in his palm. The beast looked confused at the lack of death before it roared in rage.
“Oi you two, tell the others to leave.” Emerl demanded with a cold tone as he felt his body ready to transform. “I’m about to destroy this room and cause an avalanche.” They nodded their heads as Yue teleported themselves from the battlefield and warned everyone.
Emerl’s mech body began to grow as it’s body armor grew battleship style armor which covered the it’s appendages and most of it’s head. The face reappeared in the stomach area. The majority of the armor had a dark blue cobalt color as the red were converted to rainbow and the yellow and black were whites. The robot grew to seven times it’s size as it stared down at it’s slightly smaller foe who snarled at the mech.
‘Well this is different than what I expected.’ Emerl thought as he examine himself.
‘What do you mean?’ Luna asked as she and her sister were in separate chambers.
‘It was suppose to be bigger.’ Emerl response slightly disappointed at the size.
‘We gain the strength to win and you are worry about the size?’ Celestia asked with an eye twitch.
‘The original was easily able to pass through skyscrapers!’ Emerl tried to reason as Luna gave an ‘oh’ at the statement which made the robot turned to her suspiciously.
‘I may have shrunk it to avoid harming our allies. Besides, we are in Tartarus territory so the dimensions will compensate to our size regardless.’ Luna explained as Emerl gave a groan while the room began to expand.
‘You could have let it grow to it’s full max then?’ Emerl suggested as Luna shook her head to reject the idea. ‘Why not?’
‘I desire to beat the ursa from existence, rather than simply stomp it out.’ Luna calmly reasoned which made the robot stare at her with disbelief.
‘Foals can we focus on beating the ursa first?’ Celestia asked with low patience. Emerl sigh in defeat while Luna blew a raspberry and victory pose. The sun princess was ready to battle until a foul stench washed over her face. ‘By the way, Emerl what is that horrid smell.’
The head robot was silent for a moment before knowing they’ll bother him about it. 'I sorta hurled by some disturbed news.’ The two grew curious by his wording.
‘What can be so disturbing that you had to upchuck your vile fluids in this ship?” Luna nearly gagged while asking the question as the robot activated the self cleaning system.
‘These ursa were trying to create an inbreed army.’ Emerl expect an reaction only to receive a blank stare. ‘Phew, I thought you guys wou-’ He was cut off to noticed Luna had hurling in the cockpit as some of it landed on him. ‘Ugh! I just clean that!’
‘Emerl, I can’t express how disturb I am to hear that,’ Celestia calmly explains before sighing exhaustedly. ‘However, I’d dealt with certain group members who believed in unicorn purity by any means.’ Luna gave a disturbed glare at the news as she never heard about this. ‘I was lucky enough to convince the council and Platinum to avoid executing their pregnant mistakes. However, they had to be denied support from either family and taken to the orphanage if volunteering.’ The robot and night princess were slightly absorb on the thought before the solar princess gave a quick cough for their attention. ’Luna, I haven’t told you due to the sensitivity and honestly I rather not have you with innocent blood if it backfired.’ She channel her powers into the giant mech with a serious expression. ‘Now let’s focus on completing this journey before discussing about such topic.’
The arc mech charged at the mutant ursa as it give a quick knee to the face. The beast recovered and slash at the mech with a sub-zero slash to the chest which was intersected by the giant robots arm. The mech countered with a punch to the stomach as the mutant’s body suddenly spun to the other end of the field. Before it could rise up, the mech appeared with a drill inazuma kick which seemed to hit in direct contact before the ursa disappeared. Emerl looked around to find the beast suddenly on his back as it tried to freeze his body with intense cold.
“Oi that’s the same move your aunt did.” Emerl stated as a drill appeared on his back, then began spinning the drill only for the body to turn into gas. ‘What the hell?’ The robot thought before a ice blast hit him while his guard was down. ‘I know that things a ice ghost of death, but my attack should have done something to her.’
‘It’s most likely the revenge symbol combine with the energy making it immune to certain attacks.’ Celestia said as she read the data. ‘We may need to rely on solar energy to defeat it.’ The mech began glow with a burning aura.
‘By the way, sir Emerl please try not get hit by it’s cold hugs. This assault will hinder our defenses.’ Luna warned as she tries to repair the damage.
‘Alright.’ Emerl exclaimed as he covered himself in shield barrier as it extends to hit the mutant on the side. Then he charges at the creature while evading from the incoming ice blasts and released a 20 burning drill barrage missiles. They hit their mark as the giant mech continued it’s assault with 5 fast hooks, a knee to the jaw, several fast kicks, and a roundhouse kick for the finish. It caused tremendous damage towards the beast as she return the favor by thrusting her claws through the mech’s side.
‘Shit! We have to finish it off before it destroy us on the inside.’ Emerl stated while feeling the mech body freeze by the intense cold. ‘Activate the Spiral Cannon!’ The mech grabbed hold of the ursa mutant’s other arm as the stomach face opened it’s mouth. The ursa tried to escape, yet Emerl and Luna bound the creature’s body with harmony and dark magic. The heated magic fury of the sun alicorn has caused the mutant to become visible while negating her powers which the creature knew her time has come. The beast attempted to fasten the freezing process to delay the inevitable. The mech body cold temperature was slowly affected the two sisters and Emerl’s actual body. The body would have completely froze until three glows of white, blue, and rainbow shine through body. It burned the mutant’s body of her corrupted power as she converted back to original state.
[How did you beat me? I had the powers of Tartarus and Chaos on my side?] The mutant ursa demanded.
“Do you think the sins of the past can stop the bright fires of future generations?! Emerl shouted with rage. “The powers of Hell and Chaos can’t stop our drive! We shall pierce through the challenge and never give up!” He moved himself and the princesses into the face chest section as ammo. “We will dig through the boundaries and past through the limitation that the gods have placed!” The mouthpiece generated a giant drill beam which contained two halves of the rainbow dark and light that covered the ursa and destroyed the cave on the west side. They landed on the ground safely at the south hallway. The sisters were exhausted while Emerl felt Harmony magic was deeply low as he swtich back to chaos. When suddenly they felt a warm presence around them.
‘Thank you!’ They heard 4 faint joyful voices echoing through their heads. The trio received an image of a large peaceful family of ursas in their minds. It brought a warm smile towards the the princesses while Emerl saved the image in his memory. The mech body began to shrink into a small robot with a large face on it which Emerl send it back to wherever it came from. The room returned back to normal from the twisted reality from the mutant ursa. The trio began walking towards the remaining members while getting out of the place.
“Ok I think I overstayed my welcome.” The Doctor before he called his Tardis which started to slowly appeared in the room. Ditzy felt a bit sadden with leaving her new friends.
“I’ll miss you guys!” She said as she somehow grab the mark musketeer, Simba, and Diablo in one big hug. They struggled to get freed only for it to tightened harder on their bodies. The Doctor called the mare over when Tardis fully arrived. The grey pegasus gave Emerl the amulet and jar she found “I found these in the ursa cave, maybe it could be useful to you later.” He wanted to question it, but decided to save it for later use as he suddenly realize something.
“Wait!” Emerl yelled out as he wanted to ask something important. “Aren’t you going to provide us info about whoever we are facing?”
“I already gave the Celly and Lulu the heads up so I’m not needed for now.” Ditzy went inside the Tardaris as the Doctor followed only to stop in mid way. “Oh and one more thing!” He turned to Emerl and gave him a slightly mad glare and a dark warning. “If I ever see your corrupt double or Discord messing with time, especially my Tardis again! Expect them to return less lively and more traumatized for their remaining existence.” He returned back to his joy expression as he chirped. “By the way, I stabilize your robotic suit on some parts as a reward. Though I recommend about thinking instead just smashing your way through a situation.” He quickly change back to his positive self as he went inside the Tardis and left. Emerl felt several time shivers as a couple of himself were faded from existence.
/Okay do not fuck with a guy that can reverse engineer our powers or abilities to force us perform suicide./ Sin commented with a painful headache.
“So where are we going now?” Emerl asked only for Diablo to hop off of Buttershe and looked at his surroundings.
“Simple I’ll take care of the traps, while you guys chat strategy.” He responds before turning to Buttershe. “You still have those communication seals?” The mare nods for confirmation. She toss a marked bandana towards her bunny as she brought out her viking helmet. Emerl pictured Buttershe wearing a bunny based armor whenever they travel. The hopped off while the others huddle together.
“Well princesses who or what are we facing?” Emerl asked as the remaining group listen to the princesses. The duo gave each other a quick glance before Celestia decided to speak up.
“The opponent we are facing is a being that existed during the age of the alicorn tribe.” She began with a serious tone while the colts were surprised the age of this being. “This being is a goat who goes by the named Grogar who claims his powers supasses all that confronts him as he relies on ancient dark magic to fight.” Buttershe sigh at the moment dark magic as she could tell this will be a typical story. “This fiend’s goal is to conquer the lands of the planet and drive it into misery and despair, while repairing his homeland in a self proclaimed glory for superiority. He has used various fields of dark magic, yet he favored the most in necro magic.”
“So we are dealing with someone who wins on being better than everyone by killing them with necro magic.” Yue summed up for them.
“Plus, has a temper worse than Silent and Apple trying to be the better warrior?” Onyx asked while receiving a ‘hey’ from his teammates.
Luna chuckled a bit at their antics before responding in a serious tone. “He was considered a monster for deliberately using dark magic to kill any who caused an annoyance towards him” Yue scoff at the goats impatience and method of stopping the annoyance. Luna gave a glare to her dark half to behave before continuing. “The necromancer has a tendency of underestimating his opponent alot, yet he does have large amount of dead bodies to call forth.”
“So easy to distract and simple to kill then. Though I thought Sir Emerl and the Doctor gotten rid of the bodies?” Silent asked which made the robot eye roll.
“The Doctor used my body to eliminate the experiments, yet the giant ursas somehow avoided it. So I wouldn't be surprise if this Grogar guy still has backups.” Emerl stated with indifference before giving a cough for attention. “Now Celly can you continue on explaining about the jackass we need to kick.”
The solar princess nods at the request, yet she felt uneasy on the upcoming part, while they traveled through several hallways. “He uses torture methods of summoning loved ones of his opponents.” The colts were disturbed by the last part while everyone else only had a resolve to stopping the goat necromancer.
“So he normally torment ponies with fear and desecrates family for his own needs. ” Apple Crusher summarized in a dark tone before asking. “How does he know about our love ones? Does he revive them fully or physically?”
“He examines your mind and interprets who they are based on your memories and experience.” Luna explains with disgust. “The corpse will create a completely likeness of it which in reality is-” she was cut off by Buttershe.
“A soulless copy.” She bitterly finishes as she receives a confirm message from Diablo, ‘Hey I almost finish disabling the traps, so I suggest you prepare for battle.’
“Not quite if the soul is deceased, then he will attempt to revive it for more effective use.” Yue added with a bit of disgust on the tone. “The dead’s memory should be respected unless they give permission to be used.” The colts nodded at the last statement, yet felt a uneased by talking about their departed families as they attempt to change topics.
“So master do ya usually send yar rabbit into these situations?” Apple Crusher asked who gave a shrugged for the response.
“Normally, he usually volunteers while stating, ‘it’s hard to hit a small target’, then he takes the communication seal and hops off.” Buttershe responds with a worried tone.
“That seems kinda reckless.” Emerl comments as his scanners picked up the rabbit dodging a series of arrows, magic, illusions, and pit traps with incredible ease. The robot noticed the rabbit’s nature magic gave small burst to his eyes and feet. “Though based on how he is dodging some of those traps I can see he pick things up very quickly.” Buttershe seemed to gave a warm smile at the news before she turn towards the princesses with a serious expression.
“So anything specific we have to know about our foes?” The yellow earth pony queried when suddenly Emerl’s body gave out some static as she asked in annoyance “Oh what now?”
“Guys don’t be alarmed, but I’m not in control of my body.” Emerl warned as his arms aimed at his team. “So I would advise everyone to run!” His hands began shooting bullets only to be blocked by the princesses’ barrier. The royal ponies were struggling with the fatigue from earlier as their defense were crumbling rapidly. Buttershe thinking ahead made a seal to immobilized the robot as she attach it to a kunai. She stares at Onyx Gem with a plan face.
“Initiate plan TSS.” Buttershe commanded as the unicorn colt nodded and teleport her master beside the robot. Emerl’s body react quick enough to shot the mare on her left front hoof. She winced from the harsh pain of having her appendage easily pierce before ignoring it to proceed on her objective. In a quick motion, she thrust the kunai through his chest. The seal activates by spreading vine ink markings through the robotic body making it stop before it could fire a barrage of bullets through Buttershe's body. Majority of the team were glad the rampaging teammate stopped as they approached the mare. Buttershe quickly removed the bullet from her hoof by using her mouth and her natural energy to maneuver the object out. The mare proceed to place a potion on the wound, which accelerated the healing until the hole sealed up. She moved her appendage to feel completely fine. “There now let's hurry before something else happens.”
When suddenly a bruised and beaten Diablo was thrown in front of them. Buttershe eyes widen in full worry as she rushed towards her bunny companion and diagnose him. She found no serious damage inflicted on her companion to her relief, until she noticed an enlarging shadow about to cover them. Before anyone could warn her, a large stone sphere crashed into the spot where the duo seemed to be killed until it was split in half. It opened to reveal Buttershe and Diablo unharmed as she direct her unsheathed blade toward the spot the sphere was fired.
“You little dirt eating mule! I can’t believe you chopped my moon ball!” A rude deranged voice declared. Luna raised her eyebrow on the ruined moon ball with disgust as she thought. ‘How dare this fool use a disgraced moon to harm my allies.’
“Now calm down Zazz, I warned you these aren’t normal individuals, didn’t I? ” An elderly voice said as six figures appeared across the team. There were each different from one another in many ways, yet they contain similar powers as well. The first to come up was a derange skinny pinkish creature as he appeared a street punk style hair, spike collars on his neck and wrist, two horns, and wild sharp teeth.
“Buzz off old man! These pests aren’t any different than those annoying horses we slaughtered in the past.” The pink skinny creature declared, while receiving hate glares from their pony opponents.
“I demand who are you six!?” Celestia anger brew over her tone with little courtesy. The majority of the creatures stare with amusement as the pink one laughed.
“You have a lot of guts for a stupid horse, though you and the blue one seemed different than the rest.” The pink creature hollered rudely before pointing a finger at himself as he goes through introduction. “Tell ya what I’m Zazz! I’m going to be the last thing you see, while I skin you alive nice and slowly.” He gave Celestia the finger while the sun princess scoff at the threat.
“I can see there is no chance in convincing any of you from letting us through.” Celestia declared with narrowed eyes at the yeta’s insanity and savagery behavior. She examine the others who eyes share similar traits of destruction and mayhem to the pink yeta. “ Tis a shame that your kind isn't one with peace, but I'll defend my ponies from threats like you.” They laugh at the returning challenge as the blue elder with a cane decided to voice out.
“Such naivety and hastiness will lead to your demise.” He advised with a chuckled “Just like many of your kinds faults, peace is only an illusion the weak will seek and claim only for the strong to shatter.” He position his cane upward before introducing himself. “I am Zik and you will learn a lesson before passing on.”
“Such words coming from beings who act like mindless beast towards others.” Luna stated as she stared at Zazz with a pitied expression. “Creatures like yourselves cause harm knowing deep inside you know you're too weak inside to change.” Yue only laugh at these pitiful insults before saying her piece of words.
“These foals talk are beginning to give me a bore.” Yue yawned as she gave a devious smile at the six yeti. “Besides what are we dealing with here.” She began pointing onto each one starting with Zazz. “ A moon wielding imitator who whines like a foal.”
“Oh! Are you mocking me?” Zazz yelled as he tried to being intimidating. He crack his fists while licking his lips anticipating for a fight.
“Oh no, I’m just bad mouthing another pink spineless weak moon throwing imitator swine. What do you think, fool?” Yue retorts furthering the yeta's irritation. "Don't forget idiotically deaf as well." Zazz was steaming mad and made a self promise to torment the clone. Yue directs her hoof to Zik. “ A sad cryptic old man whose size can be passed for a foal,“
“Such ignorance can lead to a quick defeat.” Zik called out in wisdom tone while Yue laughed.
“That is true, yet sprouting the words of muck is the equivalent to barking loudly, old mutt.” Yue responds to the old man.
She turned to a large yellow glutton yeta, “Aren’t you a tough, ugly, stupid one.” the yeta felt insulted as he yelled in rage
“Hey! Take that back, you snack!” Yue calmly thought from his retort.
“Fine! You aren’t that tough!” Yue declared as large yellow yokai nodded his head as he called out ‘better’.
“Didn’t you-” Luna was about to ask until Yue responds. “Give him a minute.” the yeta suddenly realize the insult.
“Hey!”
She chuckled before glancing towards a green petite shallow yeta. “ A whiny harlot who thinks she is the center of existence,”
“You're just jealous no one adores you.” The green yeta replied as Yue gave laugh.
“Oh yes, how your many suppose admirers that adores you. Tell me are they invisible or the delusions from your dreams.” Her opponent only huffed as she went back to her business.
“Fighting you is like breaking a nail! Not much worth for my beauty!” The yeta shallowly responds while examining her nails.
“By beauty you mean being a disturbed swine born with a inbreed birth defect, then yes it isn’t worth my expense.” Yue mocks the green yeta who glared at the dark clone with killer intent which was miniscule to the Luna’s dark half. “Oh I’m so scared.”
She gave a short purple haired slouch Yeta an unamused stare. “A jester in the face of existence.”
“We’re are all just dust in wind at the end.” The purple haired yeta comments with misery. “This is just another useless conflict about you could beating us except it will come mostly in disappointment. Just like anything else in life.”
“Sunplot I think we found your mate.” Yue jibs at the sun princess who glared annoying at in return. Luna calmed her sister down as she mouth to her dark counterpart. ’Don’t overdo it’ The dark half only eye rolled at her sister’s feelings before responding. ‘She should know not everyone will bow to her whims, especially her own family.’
‘I heard that and I may agree,’ Luna replied with a scold tone as her stern glare intensified at the clone's sudden behavior. ‘but it isn’t right to insult family continuously!’
‘Fine mother!’ Yue whined back with sarcasm and annoyance.
Her final glance towards a strong looking red yeta with a long azure ponytail as she let out a mock gasp. “Holy Faust I didn’t know turtles and devil boars made a the most ugly spawn together?” Each yeta felt different negative reactions as the red yeta chuckled in amusement from the alicorns taunt. This threw the dark half of the alicorn off.“You find my taunts amusing?”
“An inferior being praising like she exists,” He replied as he examines the group and scoffed. “yet only two of us are needed here. Zomom and Zazz dispose of them as you wish.” The yellow yeta lick his lips while the derange pink one gave a sadistic smile. Before the red one gave a command to leave he advise the duo. “By the way, do not hesitate to use them.” He turned to leave only for a giant barrier to block their path. A few seconds later, a void portal appeared as Alan who took the form of the Crimson Avenger (aka Amy Anderson which means I have to call him a she for a while) popped out of the portal with an pissed expression.
“The absolute bullshit when a couple of idiots think they can leave without getting rekt by the main character.” The Essence human seethed as she pointed her blade towards them. “Now who's first?”
“Wasn’t my seals suppose to stop you?” Buttershe questioned the Alan with a curious glance.
“Well it didn’t stop my energy from flowing out of my body.” Alan simply stated before she charges towards the four yeta with remarkable speed and strike before they couple react. She gave a deep and lightning speed slash through their stomach before turning around and placed her blade on the ground. She then releases dark crimson energy from her sword repetitively to hastily gathering them into a void like sphere, while harming them for the duration. They tried to resists the attack, yet it penetrates through their body’s most vulnerable areas as they bleed from their wounds excessively. The attack lasted for a moment before she finishes off with a energy enhance kick that exploded the void sphere on impact, which separated them from each other. She went after the red yeta as she yelled. “Bowser ripoff is mine!” Everyone would been concern about Alan’s personality changes if they weren’t in a battle for their lives.
“Mushu, Simba, deal with the leftovers.” Buttershe commanded the two as they nodded and went after their intended targets. She turned her attention towards the Mark Musketeers. “Colts protect the princesses, while we deal with these pest.” She stated with a serious tone. “Never underestimate the enemy if they somehow get past us.” Yue gave a sadistic laugh at the statement.
“Against these pitiful weaklings, I bet a rodent could beat them.” The dark alicorn copy responds with confidence. “Now I’ll take care of this pitiful imitator, while Lard duplexe is yours.” She shot a magic blast towards Zazz who barely dodged the attack and started hurling fake moons at the dark clone. The alicorn copy easily evaded as she delivered a hoof punch to her opponent, sending him far. She purse her foe leaving Buttershe to fight Zomzom without interference.
“I’m hungry! Get in my belly little pony!” Zomom whines with great hunger in his tone. He charges at the yellow mare who simply sidestep and trip the large creature to the ground. The large slob gets up with anger quickly overcoming him. “ Ow! That hurts now I’m mad!” The yellow yeta began to charge at her again except he spun his arms similar to a twister. Buttershe quickly jumped from the attack while leaving an explosive tag. Before the yellow yeta could react he was blasted into air which left him defenseless for the next attack. The mare unsheathed her blade at a quick second and swung her blade rapidly. Her opponent could only see a couple hit him before she landed on the ground gracefully. Zomzom fell roughly to the ground as he got up and angrily yelled. “You make me look bad stupid horse! Do you think a couple slashes could take me down?”
“I’d actually slash you fifteen times before landing.” Buttershe simply stated as she gave a pity look towards the creature for his ignorance. “I wish you a safe passage to the afterlife.” She sheathed her blade, which confused the yeta until he got up and charge at her again.
When Zomzom was halfway to her, he only saw his vision split before his top body exploded like a balloon the moment he moved towards the mare. The battlefield was now redecorated in raining blood and organs while the mare gave a silent prayer to the creature. Before she could walk back towards the princesses, a black cloud surrounded the area as her slain opponent was being resurrected.
During the moment of resurrection, the clouds surround nearly everyone except the princesses and the colts into separate dimensional battlefields. Before the clouds finalize their opponents, the purple short Yeta slipped through Mushu and Simba and reached towards the Mark Musketeers. The pessimistic yeta quickly placed his palmed to the ground, which made the dark clouds drag the Mark Musketeers into the battlefield. The dark clouds glowed purple finalizing the death match with the every possible exit sealed.
The princesses were about to provide assistance until a shadowy dragon figure came and unleashed a volley of green flames. The attack threw the alicorn off guard as they were slam toward a wall. Before they could respond, the dragon figure grabbed them and released a dark mist from it’s breath. The mist instantly knocked Celestia to subconscious, while Luna resisted the dark magic effects. The dragon tried to crush the blue alicorn to submission before she turned into smoke. She reappears above it and unleashed a full blast of magic at the dragon’s face before it could react. It recoil back from the attack while it still held Celestia in it’s claws as the dragon turned away to escape. Luna tried to go after the dragon only for it to disappear in a dark portal along with her sister.
‘Darn it all!’ Luna thought in anger as she punched the ground with her hooves. The force made the ground crack on the surrounding area ‘Oh all the stupid acidine crud.’ Dark energy radiated from her body as the three rings in her body were reacting violently towards the sudden growth of emotions. The blue alicorn was ready to destroy anything in her path to retrieve her sister until Yue’s voice rang into her mind.
‘Luna calm down!’ Yue commanded which snapped the mare attention.
‘A foul beast just snatch our sister and you need me to calm down.’ Luna argued as her dark aura grew furiously larger before her glowed fiercely ready to unleash a larger blast.
‘Luna does rampaging in enemy territory seems like a good idea?!’ Yue rhetorically yelled before pointing out the largest flaw in her light half’s plan. ‘The only thing that will happen is your immediate capture and dooming all of us, if you rush into their home turf like an fool!’ Luna paused for a second as she expects a clear explanation. ‘Think about it! I doubt they would kill her if the beast could have ended Celestia the moment she was grabbed.’
‘It gives me more motivation to seek and slain the monster and his master before it can do the deed.’ Luna darkly comments as she was about to leave before she suddenly saw an gravely injured version of herself looming over a dead Celestia with carnage glee. The sun alicorn’s fur was repainted blood red as her eyes only gave dead sadness and dried tears towards her sister’s state. It ends with the remaining alicorn weeping in blood before she collapse from the injuries and countless ponies coming to slay her. The blue alicorn stopped with absolute fear into her being. The vision felt too realistic for her to dismay as she voiced to the creature capable of doing such a thing. ‘What was that vision you showed me, Yue!”
‘Something that will come to reality if you were to lose control of yourself.’ Yue simply reply with regret. ‘Your emotions can be your greatest weapon, yet it’ll be your downfall if you were to use it recklessly.’ Luna didn’t want to believe her, yet she doubted her plan to combat an strong enemy by herself would succeed. In addition, she realize this enemy must had countless experience alicorn before her. She gave an exhausted sigh and considered her options.
‘Fine, I’ll try to not to rush in recklessly.’ The blue alicorn calmed down and used her horn to see if she could track her sister. The result came inconcluded as she noticed something was interfering her spell. ‘It seems whoever summon the beast made sure to conceal her magic signature from being tracked to their exact location.’ She attempted to analyze the dark magic signature from her assailant, yet found something peculiar. ‘Whatever dark magic this being is composed of, seemed to be very similar to my own.’ She looked more into the dark magic, while she send out copies of herself to scan the area ahead. ‘Yue finish off your opponent quickly, so we can search for our sister.’
‘Fine the fool was boring me anyway. ’ Yue replied as the copy simply teleport behind her opponent. Her horn released a light glow of magic making Zazz confused by her actions.
“Hey what are yo-” He was about to ask before his vision turned completely black. He suddenly found himself unable to form a thought as his brain turned dead in a matter of seconds. Yue was about to leave until she noticed the dark clouds were attempting to revive her fallen adversary. The dark mare snorted with annoyance as she would have none of that.
Before the the clouds were about to perform their purpose Yue’s horn glowed, which made it paused for a moment only to warp into a different form. The cloud began shrink into a pink sphere as the dark mare could saw three balloons symbol formed . ‘Mmmm a abnormal soul?’ She questioned noticing the soul had an mix aura of Harmony and an earth pony. She licked the soul which cause the sphere to shudder before moving back into position. ‘It taste incredibly sweet, yet has the blood of countless creatures.’ The alicorn copy decided to take the soul with her as she teleport from the battlefield.
Meanwhile with the villains
Grogar was surprise with this turn of events while he thought that there was evil in these ponies, yet this one had surpass his expectation. He never expected in his near immortal life to find a pony who has a darker aura than him. “So who are you again?” The sadistic goat asked while focusing on synchronizing the human body and the powerful ancient centaur's soul. The body was shaped of a 17 year old girl who was nude at the moment. She has long blond hair with a decent physique, a minimal muscle that fighters may underestimate, and a flowing aura of light surrounding her.
The creature was a mare with dark mist vapour leaking through her body. The mare in question was a unicorn with a dark coat, purple and blue streak curly mane, and a red/yellow sun cutie mark with a glowing double infinite symbol. Her eyes had a dragonic shape, yet a person with spiritual awareness could feel tormented souls coursing through the body. Bray was looking at this new creature with awe, while feeling something he had never felt in his undead life.
“I’m only a collection of vengeful souls in a nearly broken body and mind.” The creature spoke in a ice feminine voice while her body seemed to crack under pressure. “Now if only my servant will arrive with the suitable body before this one dies out.” She gave an annoyed scowl at the Grogar. “Besides shouldn’t you be occupied with resurrecting an old fossil.”
“Which is the only reason I’m not enslaving you into total obedience.” Grogar arrogantly snarled at the dark mare. The mare only chuckled which made the goat glared at her. “What’s so funny?”
“Do you think such magic can stop me?” The mare declared with a cruel smile. “I’m from a dimension where the nightmare is equivalent to the damned and vengeance.” She gave a glare with intense hatred of souls from the depths of hell. “So far I had absorbed and assimilated my dimension’s Tartarus into my being after this robotic fool destroyed my world.” She released a small portion of her power which blasted Bray away, yet caused her temporary body to nearly explode by the pressure. “If I wanted to I can create a new dimension to capture more pitiful souls, yet my being wants to settle a score with the metal fool.” When suddenly the dragon minion she summon arrived with Celestia’s body. The mare gave a disappointed glance towards the dragon before whacking on the head. “I thought I specifically told you to get the Luna of this dimension as my suitable body.” The dragon looked down in shame while the mare only scoff. “At least, you brought me a capable body, yet it’ll take a while to fully synchronized with this body..”
“You do know I have spare alicorn bodies.” Grogar mention with a dry tone as he hates being ignored.
“Do any of them still have a living soul to obtained,” She question rhetorically with a mocking tone before giving the goat sorcerer an annoyed expression. “my power works greatly on a body that is living for it provides me less work to handle the flow of keeping it alive.” She began the process as she escaped from her current host body to her new one. “In addition, consuming the soul or at least a good portion will let me gain the benefits and full usage of the body’s potential.”
“mmph! A dead body with a soul bind is simpler to control without any fuss in my opinion.” Grogar scoffed while noticing the creature’s old body transform into a orange coated mare with fire like streak mane. She was weak beyond recognition, exhausted, confused and scared by the whole situation as she attempted to teleport away. She noticed her horn wasn’t pouring out magic as she dreaded that her powers are gone at the moment.
“Sunset Shimmer consider this a reward for housing me, however whatever you do now is your own tragedy.” The creature gestured with a merciful tone until she told the next following words that may doom her fate. “Grogar she is all yours.”
“mmm what to do with this one, because honestly I’m not in the mood of collecting useless ponies,” Grogar retorted as he was occupied at the moment before he turned to his donkey servant. “do what you want with the unicorn.” Bray only stared at Sunset who closed her eyes bracing her imminent demise. After a few moments, she noticed the zombie donkey wasn’t tearing her apart as she expected. When he suddenly lean his head over the mare in a loving manner, which made the goat sorcerer groan at the donkey’s stupidity. “Bray what are you doing?”
“Master she is pretty.” Bray blurted out which confuse every resident in the room. The zombie donkey gave his master a sad puppy while begging. “Can I keep her master please! please! please! please! I promise to feed and care for her.” He grabbed the necromancer’s leg. “I guarantee she won’t end up like those pups and kitten!”
Grogar only gave a stoic expression while still stabilizing the body. His expression turned into a cold glare which told his top minion to back off. “Fine! You can keep your pet as long the pest doesn’t interferes with my plans.” He growled out as the zombie donkey hug the creeped out (possibly mentally scarred) Sunset Shimmer while petting her. Before the unicorn mare could say anything, the donkey took her out of the room with joy of having a pretty companion.
The dark entity trying to control Celestia’s body was stung by this event before she chuckled. “Oh damned, this is rich a zombie slave begged the master for a pet and he approves.” Grogar only groan to the entities laugh before she calmed down and focus on the situation at hand. “Betting this version of Luna would try to ruin our plans,” Grogar tried to ignore her suggestion. “I doubt your zombie pet is a match for her.”
The goat sorcerer scoffed at the information. “Several alicorns had underestimate bray and fell towards his fighting style and powers.” He boosted before receiving a laugh from the dark entity. “What do you think is so funny?” He asked with narrowed eyes.
“Based on what my minions and shadow souls,” Several dark ponies appeared in the room with blank eyes and red orbs staring and awaiting commands. “they have seen this Luna being able to duplicate herself, while obtaining information and experience from them.” The dark entity gave a mischief chuckle. “Honestly the donkey slave of yours would last five minutes before she finds your connections on him and cut it out.”
Grogar raised an eyebrow with curiosity. “I doubt it! The insufferable creature is unpredictable, especially if he fights desperately.” When suddenly a thought occurred to his mind. “So tell me this metal golem or whatever it is, how powerful is it?”
The dark entity gave paused for a moment. “Based on these souls, I would estimate strong enough to devastate a planet in several attacks.” She concluded with a truthful tone. Grogar gave a ‘tch’ sound towards the situation before calmly sigh as the mare of the damn grew interest. “You have someone for such a threat?”
“Just an old pain in my younger days.” The goat sorcerer commented while commanding his zombie donkey. “Bray bring in the sword!” The zombie donkey brought a grey power sword that radiated with tremendous power. “This weapon came from one of the warriors besides the humans that have stopped me from conquering this world.” The dark entity sense a strong soul inside the blade. “The wielder placed a powerful curse to prevent me from using or altering it in anyway or form.” Grogar stated with anger as he looked at the weapon with slight envy. “It has granted the user power to surpass countless beings in the world, especially made the alicorn tribe a little child compare to it’s power.
“mmm This soul rivals at least 50% of the souls I have inside me.” The dark entity stated while holding the blade with a touch of her magic. She examine the blade in great detail before the blade began to darken. “I can at least diminish the curse long enough for you to alter it.” The Grogar gave a shock expression by the news and grinned evilly.
“It’ll take me shortly to stabilize the body.” Grogar stated with excitement as he gave his best on speeding up the process with careful accuracy. “You know creature this might be a bearable relationship.”
“mph Fool.” The dark entity stated before Celestia’s body gave a green glow along with a blood curling scream. Grogar nearly lost control until he noticed something is happening to the human body. It was drawing in some of the energy the sun alicorn as the dark entity gave an annoyed grunt. “It seems the Celestia soul within me is losing synchronization by an unknown force.”
Before the dark entity could try to take control of the situation, Celestia opened her eyes and experience a metamorphosis. Her mane glowed white with flowing flames, her eyes glowed with a rainbow color, and her coated changed to inferno red which burned the dark entity from her body. “Get out of my child’s mind, fiend!” A mix variety of Celestia and a second feminine voice echoed the room. The newcomer glared at Grogar with hatred and anger. “Grogar you haven’t change much after we defeated you.”
The goat necromancer was confused by the event until he noticed the mare’s aura gave a familiar feeling in his spine. “Mmmm the power you are exerting is familiar?” He question with caution in his tone.
“Apparently your mind rotted throughout the years,” The possessed Celestia jibed before her eyes leered at the old necromancer. “if you don’t remember a member from the ancient alicorn tribe.”
Grogar eye widened before giving a chuckle at this moment. “I’m surprised that the dead can speak, yet you forgot something my dear!” he jeered as a bell rang to assume control of the alicorn only to find it was unaffected. “What!?” He was shocked to see a spirit immune to his powers. “You should be ensnare by my powers?”
The alicorn smiled wickedly at the goat sorcerer’s attempt before aiming her horn at the goat. “I’m still alive, yet I’m banished from being near the ones I love because of power.” She simply launched an small dark sphere at the goat sorcerer who quickly summon a powerful barrier to shield himself. When the sphere made contact, it exploded to a wave of energy which engulfed the goat sorcerer as well broke through the castle’s wall and barrier. The blast continued until it shattered the Tartarus surrounding itself. The castle’s environment changed into a forest of the living which stood above cloud levels. The only thing remaining of the goat sorcerer is a bell with runic(long life).
The possessed alicorn was surprised by the result until she felt a familiar energy protecting the bell. She quickly turned to the abominations only to realize the teenage girl disappeared. In less than a second, her vision was covered by a pale hand before it unleashed a powerful blast towards the alicorn. Similar to a bullet, the alicorn was launched quicker than she could respond as she crash towards the deep regions of the castle. The possessed princess suddenly returned back to her normal state as the rainbow aura disappeared.
“Ah it is finally good to be free from the grips of absolute oblivion!” The girl exclaimed with a deep male voice. She stared at the area around her with a bit displeased frown she gave a menacing growl. “This realm has fallen to its weakness for far too long. Now I shall shape this planet into what is rightfully mine.” The planet began to tremble when she released her powers into the air.
During the moment, the possessed girl narrowed her eyes when she felt a disturbance, especially when a giant laser shot to the air mix with her powers. It created an intensified powerful barrier surrounding the castle which showed a symbol of three circles in a form of a triangle. The possessed teen attempted to blast the barrier only for the attack to return the shot with greater force. She barely dodged the reflected blast, especially when she noticed it obliterated a pillar from existence.
“ A power beyond my capabilities? It seems these pitiful creatures haven’t weakened after my demise.” The teen gave a disgusted glance towards surrounding as she voice out what would have happened. “After I take care of this nuisance the plants will wilt, water shall be replaced by blood, the weak will become petrified with horror on their faces, and the sky shall shroud the sun as pure crimson darkness rayed the land.” She suddenly gave a bored expression before walking towards a hidden chamber. The dark entity who was still in the room had hidden itself unclear if this creature would harm her. She noticed the teen stopped as she glared onto the spirit's hidden location. “Spirit of the damn, I know you are there now show yourself before I obliterate you like every other tartarus creature who disobeys me.” The Dark entity slowly revealed herself in fear of being consume and obliterated by the entity. “Tell me who are you?”
“I’m a colle-” She was about to respond before being blasted by the teen. It caused some pained, yet the dark entity withstand with little difficulty.
“I ask who you are not what, spirit!” The medium raged with a threatening tone. The dark entity gave a pause as if glaring hatefully at the possess teen. The teen growled at the lack of response as she telepathically gripped the entity. The energy began to burned the dark matter as she nearly cracks. “Now I won’t repeat a second time, who are you?”
“My name varies from the creatures I overtake,” The dark entity quickly answers with strain on her voice. The teen gave a stoic expression before tightening her grip as the dark entity grunt from the pressure and burning sensation. “yet the most common trait of my forms is Nightmare.” The medium released her grip on the dark entity who felt relief. The now declared Nightmare suddenly felt creepily fear as she noticed the teen’s dark glint in her eyes as if she found a new slave. Nightmare tried to back away from the creature only to be held by the previous method.
“I know not what birth you to be the way you are,” The teen pointed out before raising her arms and release a darkness variation of Harmonic energy. Nightmare felt a familiar sensation when the Elements of Harmony were used on her. “But you shall be useful in my conquest.” The nightmare entity last heard before her conscious fade to black.
Meanwhile to the ancient beings who has been ignored.
Harmony and Discord along with a pupa changeling queen were sitting inside the Tree of Harmony enjoying a cup of tea, while discussing their plans. The changeling queen was comparable to a pony foal with small green beady eyes, a antler beetle horn, and smooth curly end hair that change color in tone with the emotion she feels. The Harmonic entity took great care for the young changeling for the moment that Chrysalis becomes a great threat and dooms the entire race. Added that she accidentally caused a grown male reincarnate into a royal female made her feel responsible for caring for her regardless. The siblings were just finished going over what they need to do for the current enemies they will face.
"Ok, you got everything or do I need to remind you like the 10th time like always." Harmony nagged at her brother who seemed to stare at space for the moment. He returned his gaze to her with an assured smile.
"Sis, I'm a lord of chaos don't expect me to be attentive to something of order," He popped a sphere filled with a entire universe as he threw it around sparking some random changes in that dimension. His sister cross her arms with a harsh gaze which forced him to stop as her eyes reminded him of their mother. "but I get the jiff watch over the robo monkey and his friends, while you make sure whathisname doesn't do much damage." He placed the ball next to the changeling foal who instinctively began to examine it.
"Discord this guy can be a serious threat," She bashed him for taking this lightly. "he wields a darker and sinister version of my original powers before the master emerald was applied into me." Discord gave a snort before noticing the foal was about to teeth on the little microverse. He quickly snaps his talons, which replace the sphere with a giant red jellybean. The foal's hair change to pink before she quickly devour the treat. "At least you prevented a foal from destroying a universe." She gave a concern stare at the younger sibling. "So are you sure you can handle this?"
"Sis, sis, do you think I'll let some mix breed cow monkey with your abilities ruin my fun place." The Harmonic entity raised her hoof with a chuckle ready to start before the draconequus zip her mouth. "Those were chimpanzees who cheated with those darn penguins, so they don't count." She remove the mouth zipper with ease as she burst in laughter. The chaos lord gave unamused look "I can always send you to a chaos realm without any chance of returning." She calm down for a moment to be serious.
"Ok I'm good, so you know which one to send for backup?" The draconequus pondered a bit before snapping his talons.
An exclamation point appeared above his head. He quickly grabbed the punctuation mark morph it to a cane as he gave it to the pupa. "Here kid some sweets from your loving uncle." The young changeling was about to munch on it before disappearing from her grasp in disintegrating fashion. She gasp at the event before suspiciously stared at Discord thinking he pulled a fast one until he pointed at her mom. "Sorry kiddo, but your mom is a spoilsport. Just like she was during our childhood." He pulled out the point remain of punctuation mark and toss it up into the air. He opened his mouth to grab and munch on it with delight making the pupa feel jealous of her uncle's powers. Her hair suddenly change to green illustrating her envy before angrily glaring at Harmony.
"Renee, you know about spoiling for dinner unless you don't like my love anymore." The changeling queen pouted from the older entity's words as she left out a bubble that translate 'I still love you mom'. Harmony smiled before ruffling her bug daughter's hair, despite the protest of wanting the jellybean. "Renee please do me a favor and go towards your room for awhile, ok?" The changeling was immediately about to enter defiant mode until the next couple of words. "Unless you feel like hearing your mommy's lovey dovey stories." She quickly trotted to the opposite direction from the duo as she rather feel the emotions instead of hearing their words. Harmony let out a relief sigh as the pupa was out of hearing range before asking Discord. "So returning back to my earlier question."
"Sorry, you know I'll like to keep my surprises." The younger sibling eludes telling his sister a clear answer before noticing the unamused look on her face. "Don't worry the creature I have will protect the mortals and the circadian duo from getting kill, while I make sure their journey doesn't get to hard. "
"Fine as long this person isn't that affected by the dark power variation of my powers, then I should be satisfied." She rest on the couch feeling the earlier wounds from encountering Mephiles still making her body feel sluggish, despite pretending to be fine to her friends. She pondered a bit on their situation as she look away in frustration. "Does it feel wrong of letting mortals do our job, while we sit here and wait for the right moment to strike?"
"Sis whether it's right or wrong, majority of them chose to do it. Besides from the countless experience of watching mortal warriors, they have the tenacity to keep going." Her brother reasoned which was rare from both of their experience. He snapped his talons to get a hand made of stone to bring in an elixir and treats. "Now rest up and eat something to recover from the little wound." His sister scoff at the elixir as she brush it aside making the chaos lord chuckle. "You know auntie would had force you to drink it by the classic tickle bellyrub by the mane trick." She scoff at the humiliating memory as its one thing to like it as a child and acting like one, but being trick to eating seems wrong to her.
" I only need a few moments to recover and I'll be good as new okay." Harmony reprimanded her brother with irritation in her tone.
"If you're sure, so can you remind me of these bad guys from mom's time." She raised her eyebrow in annoyance. "Have you ever hear you own explanations? You usually either over ex-pine the detail or tell a longwinded explanation that makes people want to leaf out of the room."
"You are sometimes a pain in the truck I mean butt!" Her brother grinning madly by the sad attempt to hide her mistakes. "Anyway, I'll tell you a simple summary of our foes:" She pulled out a photo of a goat necromancer with numerous zombies doing his duty and devouring his foe's flesh. " Grogar the goat necromancer, he was born and became leader from a rival land to the alicorn land called Tambelon. His powers relates to dark magic, calling upon the dead as well contain and storing them, curses, and a bell that grants the user a form of immortality and immunity to Death's interference. So uncle Death can't touch the guy, regardless if he breaks any ruling boundary." She search through her natural pocket to pulled a bell out. "However, his main source of power comes from the same bell, so all you have to do is destroy it and he dies instantaneously. Added that he is arrogant, somewhat wise, and ruthless, so he can be fooled if you know how to play with his pride." She took a moment to let Discord process the info.
"That is suppose to frightening." He lace with sarcasm as he snaps his talons and pop a random silvery crystal bell to appear. "I can easily grab some powerful mystical bell from wherever he hid it." Harmony quickly eye roll on her brother's arrogance before teleporting the silvery bell back to where it came from. "Last time, I wasn't prepare for a mind control by the dark arts." His eyes glowed deadly green with a evil grin. "I'm ready to rip the next fool who tries to control me."
Harmony gave a stoic stare before continuing. "Uh-huh, you do realized he has years to prepare against you," She calmly pointed her hoof onto his chest. "so don't be surprise if he is immune to your powers."
"That doesn't mean I can't bring something to harm him." The chaos lord wisecracks before looking at a photo of him being near a donkey zombie minion named Bray. The mule was stupid looking than the time the draconequus drunk days. "So he carries this just to taunt his opponents or make himself feel less cockamamie than what he already is."
"Actually that is his first and main minion who willing became his slave." Harmony pointed out which made her brother gaze at the photo with curiosity. "Before you ask no creature could have record why before, except noting never to underestimate him."
"So chance of facing a slightly insane monster underneath that pile of stupidity almost li-" He found his mouth zipped up before he could finish.
"If you say me I'm going to bash your head." She slightly threaten before unzipping it. "Just like his master, this mule has large immunity to most power manipulations due to the deep connections with his boss. In addition, rumors states that his fighting prowers can make even the forces of Colossus Steel the titian pony of metal nearly down to his knees. I'm betting it was due to power points or something of that vulnerability." Discord rubbed his chin with interest as he knew where this is going.
"So same weakness as the boss relating to the bell?" Harmony nods in confirming to the question as he pointed out. "I'm going to assume that the goat place some backup with his favorite toy then." This made the mare entity paused before dramatically staring at Bray's image.
"No wonder aunty told me to beware the mule." She muttered with a bit of distain before focusing on the other image. "Now Grogar's goal is simply reviving an ancient evil whose named has been pass by the centaurs legacy: Tirac."
"Pirac, Liliac, Tibac? Wasn't he the fellow who tried to absorb the magic around the world before Lulu and Celly stopped him." Harmony shook his head at the question.
"That was just a descendant who was suppose to be a powerful warrior and prince, but acted like a emo kid by draining the fun out of everypony. Though last time I check he was imprison in Tartarus with Cerberus guarding the gates. " She cleared her throat before going for the story. "Tirac was a terrible monster that wanted to rule everything with an iron-fist and coat everything in his image. It took nearly 45% of the strongest members in the alicorn tribe to damage him greatly before the legendary heroes arrived and slain him." Discord eyes peek interest of these 'Legendary Heroes.' until Harmony's eyes told him to focus on the matter at hand. The harmonic entity noticed that her brother giving a face that describes indifference look as if nothing new. She showed a photo of an prophecy painting where skeletons were laid on the floor, while a large crimson centaur figure on a throne with his followers beside him. The followers were somewhat draconic, yet different from the average dragon. "Based on some of mom's description, he literally wants to kill everyone except those he 'chosen', since his power will make them be able to live through just about anything." The chaos lord noticed an image of a follow being deprived of everything a living being needs, yet still function normally as it tore down his foes.
"So the 'if you join me and get immortality or become some kind of abomination' stick." The draconequus summarized as the older sibling shrugged her shoulders.
"I don't know about his methods of gaining loyal followers," She answered before staring at the centaur image. "but they died off the moment he ceases to exist."
"Seems like an original Overlord." He lace the word with great sarcasm. "So I'm assuming something is tricky with the ritual or we would have been dead long ago."
"Reviving Tirac from oblivion requires time, patience, body, and location, which Mephiles would have interfered if he found an inking on what's going on." She shudder from the past wound of the shade revealing her past reincarnation state. "The only good thing about the bastard is making others fear him." The mare entity decided to cut the discussion as she has to focus on preparing for her battle. "So anything else before we support my guardian and his friends, except repeating my explanation." The younger sibling gave a chuckle as she glared at him. "I know you have been ignoring me on purpose after the 7th time."
"Just one," Discord gave a moment of silence, which started to annoy Harmony. "Do you think saving the world goes better with this," He suddenly wears a an attire of a brown robe, with a matching color utility belt. Boots, loose-fitting pants and a typically lighter brown garment. " or a little more traditional." He snap his talons to change his clothes to a red robe, a black oddly shape hat, and black gloves matching into the dark clothing. "So which one do you think is perfect for the job."
Harmony facehooves her head as she already have things to do. "Why not just go as you wore earlier." She stated with slightly irritation of the delays. Discord raised an eyebrow on her slightly grumpy state.
"Are you still peeved about explaining it over aren't you." The draconequus chuckled at the pout expression showing on her face. "Oh my the Tree of goodness is being extremely prickly and birchy about being ignored by moi." He gave a bit more dramatic sarcasm before evading a pillow as he laugh. "Come on, sis what happened to a good old laugh. You are partly the embodiment of laughter or is that not a lie."
"I'm also the embodiment of inserting this hoof in your face if you keep pestering me!" She threatened before slumping down on the couch with annoyance. She noticed her brother already beside her trying to snuggle with her. She tried to pull away with remaining anger. The younger brother gave a slight frown knowing somepony would have been disappointed if he left her like this.
"Come on, sis. You know it has been awhile, since we acted like this." Discord chirped trying to make amends for his behavior.
"No I'm still mad at you, especially for dragging the colts into battle." She replied with slight anger.
"Well who am I to deny foals wanting to have fun, plus they are doing fine with their shadow kitty and friends." She looked at him with a deadpan expression before noticing he has a special gourmet chocolate box and 'I luv my sis' card. She sigh in annoyance knowing her brother will be persistent on her forgiveness. She calmly took the box and began eating a piece of sweets, while slowly feeling the power of chocolate and sweet creaminess melting away part of her anger. " So you still like random flavor sweets surprise, huh?"
"Well as long they are fruity or creamy good." She muttered with a smile at the taste. After munching on the sweets it brought back memories of the times their mother treat them every once and while after magic practice. It was definitely the most wildest as her brother tried to show off his powers and prove he was the better child. Though it resulted with the chaos lord flooding the home with some kind of lemon flavor jello or that is what Discord told them. She expected the worse punishment before the mother went to comfort Discord and explained that she love all her children equally and would never forget them nor favor greatly than the other. At that moment guilt hit her heart as she recklessly remove the one thing Discord cherish the most leave due to some role needed to be filled. She look towards her brother and decided to speak whats on her mind. "Discord, I'm sorry for separating us. I know how much you care about mom and it drove you to being a pawn for Me-." She felt a paw cover her mouth as the draconequus 'sshhh' her at the moment
"Don't sweat it, at least she is still alive instead biting the dust like the others." Discord pointed out before giving a sad smile. "Besides it was mostly my fault for being overbearing and dramatic about it, but it happens." She felt touch by the sentiments before devouring a chocolate, which exploded a white powder around her face and majority of her mouth. The entity quickly cough out the surprisingly sweet powder from her mouth as she noticed her brother laughing. "You thought I wouldn't prank you at this moment," She let out a frustrated sigh for falling for that trick knowing her brother. "besides I don't need you to be all sappy on me, truck sis."
"Enough with the tree puns and go." She commanded the sibling who eye rolled.
"Fine, you could have just axe me to leaf in the first place." He disappeared in a form of dust while avoiding another pillow.
Harmony massage her forehead before laying on the couch to recover. She was about to close her eyes until a soft object landed on top of her. Her eyes quickly opened to see a Renee whose hair was color light pink snuggling onto her mother with her small arms. Doing what any sensible parent-like figure would do she placed a hoof over the child and embrace the snuggles. After a good long hour, a cubby pony bug was seen waddling back to her room as she enjoyed her meal and comforting her sleeping mother.
Author's Notes:
Ok I have out long and wonder if anyone except the ones from my Discord group has miss me.....Ha! Kinda doubt with new things going on with life and what not. You know using Sunset as a vessel for a demon entity who kinda compose of many souls kinda makes me feel bad in some way...mmm I think the wise move will be to let this chapter stay and see any responds to continue with Sunset portion of the scheme, though if I should have made up some random pony. Though I'd already made the following chapter for it and it'll bum me a bit if I have to change it completely.......I'll get over it and move on.
Meet Harmony's new daughter Renee aka the hair mood changer baby pupa that will enjoy your love and morph into what you love. Anyway, I'm publishing this chapter for any response and possible chance that I'll be busy with new life styles, but I'll continue when I can. College life is clinging(good thing), chats(Decent people on Discord), and jobs(finally moving out of my parents basement...I'm kidding.) So happy reading
, sorry for no short story I kinda felt conflicted about writing this one.
