Beast Out
Chapter 5: Chapter 5: Scales, Reunion, and Punishment
Previous Chapter Next ChapterAlright so this is all fine and dandy. Go through a portal expecting to meet with someone but instead end up in the middle of a canyon and nobody is around at all. so I calmly say this to myself.
“FUCKING REALLY!?! I JUST CAME FROM THE TUNDRA AND NOW I’M IN A FCUKING DESERT. COME ON!!”
Yeah. Calm, totally. I am not in a good mood. All I know is that from my fight with Sombra I have gotten exhausted and it turns out my body has not gotten adjusted to Super Beast Out at all and it drained my stamina the longer I stayed in the form. So I just grumble to myself for a few minutes hoping something will come so I can vent out my frustration. Within a few minutes my scanners go off telling me someone showed up behind me. I turn around and see a human with a messenger bag or a satchel on him. So I try to strike up a ‘conversation’ with him.
“I hope your ready to taste the dirt.” I say.
“Woah there.” he says as he raises an arm with the palm facing towards me. “Take it easy, I’m not here to harm you.”
“Oh I don’t give a shit. Your ass is going down.” I tell him in return, not like he could do much damage to me anyway. I then lunge at him using my claws. I just barely miss him and he moves backwards, damn I guess my fight with Sombra took a lot more out of me than I thought. I then attack him again under the ribs and send him towards the cliffside.
“FireHit!” I clench my fist as flames are flickering around it. As I am about to hit him my scanners shout to me that he is building power in his right arm, I ignore it and launch my fist at him. Before my fist connects I get launched back a bit and then get back up.
“Nice Try.” He coughs a little as he says this. I look upon his arm and see it is covered in scales like a dragons and it has energy glowing from it. It seems he had a trick up his sleeve then.
I narrow my eyes at him and bring my right arm forward “SuperVulcan!” I fire off some shots at him and he uses his arm to get out of the way and gain the high ground. Very clever however it is not going to work all that well against me. I then see him pull out a bow and shoot two arrows, one at my feet and one above me. The arrows look a little different from normal arrows and my scanner tells me it is some kind of explosive. Too easy.
“AreaSteal!” The range this can go up to is twenty meters and I can tell he is just outside of my range to be right on top of him. I then disappear and reappear away from the explosives and raise my arm and fire off shots again. However before I could even fire them off he moved my arm out of the way and hits me backwards with his dragon arm. That thing is getting really annoying right now.
“Invisible!” Now thankfully during my years of using this battlechip I found out it has two uses the first being most attacks phase right through me while I can attack. but it only lasts for thirty seconds at most. The second being I turn completely invisible for about two minutes but as soon as I attack or am attacked I become visible again. I can see him become worried and then close his eyes. I then circle around him and attack from behind. Before I could strike he goes into his bag and takes out a halberd and swings it at me. It hits and some sparks fly off in response and I decloak. I look upon him and can only wonder where the fuck he was hiding that damn thing.
“Found you.” He says as soon as I reveal myself. If he could see my face he would see a smirk upon it.
“Lance!”
“Trying to copy me?” He asks. “It looks like you are running out of options.” Oh far from it boy. I then see him thinking that my arm would change into a spear. I then look behind him and I see the air shimmer and then a bamboo spear impales him from behind.
He then drops to one knee and coughs up some blood. Huh one tough son of a bitch. So I then reward him with a little present.
“White Capsule! TimeBomb!” White capsule to paralyze him and a time bomb that goes off after three seconds, a perfect present if you ask me. I see him struggle to move and then the bomb goes off. It sends him flying back into the wall and I race after him. I am thinking two things of what to do. A: The Gears three beta arm rip execution by tearing off his dragon arm and beating him to death with it, or B: Rip his head off. Fuck it I’m going to rip his head off.
“Hey Varmint!” I hear a familiar country accented voice call out and I then I get launched to the other side of the canyon. felt like I got hit by a truck going at high speeds. I hit the wall and land on the ground, before I hit the wall I hear ‘Extensive damage sustained, initiating Beast Over protocol.’ Shit, well this is the other way I can return human. However when this activates I completely turn back into a human and lose all abilities of a navi. I land on the ground and shortly afterwards I get up.
“Did someone catch the number of that t-truck?” I then black out and fall face first into the ground. A little bit of time goes by and I slightly feel the cooling touch of healing magic. I thought magic had a hard time……. oh right, Beast Over, magic can affect me completely when I am like this. I then feel the ground shake slightly as if something big is impacting it.
Remembering the few times Gutsman would do this I say “Urgh, Gutsman… Stop Punching the ground. I’m…... Oh it’s a dragon.” I move my head, as I regain consciousness, to the side as I look upon this spectacle. The same person whom I attacked, is looking concerned for me.
“Are you okay?” He asks. “You’re not going to go all beast on me and try to kill me, are you?”
I sit up and rub the back of my head with a smile “Sorry about that, I wasn’t really expecting to end up in the desert, and yeah, I’m fine. Not the first time I had my ass handed to me.” As I said that the guy chuckled a little at that, well at least he has a sense of humor.
“I’m Ken Ahkrin. This is Revaan and that's my friend Applejack. What's your name?” Ken asked me, well at least I know his name finally. Just hope he doesn’t hold it against me that I nearly killed him earlier.
“Names Gregar, I know of Applejack because of where I’m from.” I said that in case this is his first meeting with a Displaced.
“Kinda figured that.” Applejack answered in her normal southern drawl. “This isn’t our first time encountering Displaced like yerself. Now, what exactly happened that lead to you getting stuck in the badlands?”
Well at least that's out of the way and it doesn’t feel awkward explaining about displaced, im not good at explaining stuff like that anyway. “Well I found Ken’s token on my way from the Crystal Empire after I gave Sombra a royal ass kicking. I was thinking maybe I could have a have a chat with Ken, but instead of bringing him to my world I crash landed here.” I quite literally crashed mind you.
“Hang on there, fella. Did ya say Sombra?” I hear Applejack ask me. “Ah hadn’t heard that name being said after we freed the Crystal Empire two years ago with Twilight and them.”
When she said that, that got my mind rolling. “Wait…….. Is Twilight an alicorn right now?” I ask. Brony knowledge ACTIVATE.
“Yes she is.” Ken answered. “I ran into her briefly with her brother and Cadence before going home. But around that time was also the time when I felt you in the badlands.”
Looks like I am in the future here, I wanna say around season five. “Well it seems there is a little bit of a time difference in our timelines it seems.” I am at the beginning of season three.
“Trust us, it’s happened before.” The dragon, Revaan, said. “Out of the Displaced worlds we had gone too, one was shortly after Sombra’s fall. Another was during the Canterlot wedding and a third was fifteen hundred years in the past.” Hmm the Canterlot wedding ended up becoming the ‘green’ wedding for me with how blood was spilled.
“Still though, can you move. You look a bit young to be pull people's heads off.” Ken said while also mumbling something to himself, I didn’t catch what it was but I started to chuckle when he said young.
“Young….. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, oh that's a good one there, young one. I am actually over three thousand years old.” I mean as a human I was about twenty years old, so I will always look like that whenever I am not beasted out.
“And now, I’ve learned something new today. Looks can be deceiving.” Ken said as he chuckled a little. “In all seriousness though, you want to go to the Temple for a bit so you can rest before I help bring you back?”
“Sure might as well see what your place looks like.” I say as I shrug. I then say to myself “I wonder what Moony is up to right now?”
I stand up and see Ken is slightly taller than me like this. My original height is 5’8, so I would say he is about 5’9. Anyway as we were walking he led me towards the canyon wall and phased right into it. I was a little taken back by this but followed anyway. When I got inside i was surprised that there is an entire town inside this thing. I see that ponies and changelings are walking around together without being at eachothers throats, nice change of pace instead of them being persecuted for just one incident.
“Well I’ll be damned, this is not what I was expecting. And it takes a lot to surprise me outside of battle.”
“Well I was holding off on a lot of my skills since I didn’t know what you were capable of, but that's not necessary now.” Well so far he doesn’t hold it against me that I nearly killed him, thank god for that. Then I see Spike come out of some gateway stumbling a little.
“Hi Spike.” Ken says.
“Hey Ken.” He says to ken then turns to Revaan. “Hey Dad.”
Now that threw me for a loop, mainly because you never hear about how Spike's egg came into Celestia's care in the show.
“Hmm…… not everyday you Spike’s actual parents, well parent.” I see Revaan and Spike walk to a separate corridor. So it just leaves me, Ken and Applejack who is also a dragon right now I should point out, wonder how that happened.
“Yeah, there's a bit of history for Dragons here.” Ken begins, welp history lesson time. “Revaan is the last of Onyx Dragon of his kind. Mostly because in the past, the magic of Nightmare Moon corrupted most of the dragons and forced them to subdue to their carnal desires. Revaan lost his mate, Coryena, before sealing himself off from the world and used the last of his magic to send Spike’s egg someplace safe. This temple is actually the original home of the Onyx dragonkin and right now, Revaan, myself, Spike, Applejack, and a few friends of ours are trying to find out what put his kind close to extinction and find a way to bring them back.” He says “That's enough for the history lesson….. now what about you Gregar? … Gregar? Gregar are you ok?”
As Ken was explaining this I stopped in my tracks and tears were forming in my eyes, not of sadness but of pain.
“I know what it is like to be forced against your will to fight….. to kill. To be corrupted and lost to your loved ones. This all HAPPENED BECAUSE OF THAT FUCKING BASTARD OF A GRIFFON!!!” I begin remembering all the pain I endured, The smirk upon Razorbeaks face as he held me in chains and I was tortured for hours on end for his own amusement.
“H-Hey calm down!” Ken tried to calm me down, but the damage was done even if it wasn’t his fault.
“That bastard made me kill Ponies, Griffons themselves, hell even dragons. None could stop me, I was too strong for anyone. Yet he found the one thing that could not only control me but kill me as well. I have killed so many, I nearly lost what it was like to be human.” I then drop down to my knees and punch the ground. I still remember the look in the eyes of my victims as I slaughtered them, I saw a mere shadow of myself looking back with no emotion and no remorse whatsoever. As if life had no more meaning to me, I became what Razorbeak wanted a perfect killing machine. I then feel something touch my shoulder and I look up to see Ken crouching with his hand on my shoulder.
“But you haven’t… You’re still you… and for you… you need a place to call home… A place where you can forget about your past and what was done. That way, you can focus on the present and do the right thing.” Ken told me “If you need a home… I can help with that.”
I smile at him and rub my eyes to clear the tears. “That sounds nice and, yeah I would like some help.” I am never one to turn down help. “Besides if Nightmare Moon saw me like this she would be worried to no end about me.” I can almost feel her worry if she was with me right now.
“She can be here too if you want. Gregar, I'm not going to lie, but to me, you’re like a little brother. One that I never had. If you need guidance, Revaan, Applejack and I can help with that. I promise you in the name of my branch.” When he was done, I thought he was going to hug me, I mean it would’ve been a little weird but I am not going to lie, I needed one.
I smiled after he said that “If I need any help, you better answer then. Plus, before I go I think you should know a bit of my history in my Equestria.”
“I’ll try to help however I can. I have a lot of responsibilities on my end with the position I’m in, but I’m sure I can set those aside to help you.” He says to me. I nod at him as I would do the same to help him if he called for help. I see Applejack come closer and is turning back into a pony, one on four legs not the ones on two legs back where i’m from, and she stops in front of me and hugs me. Ponies really are huggable.
“Any friend of Ken is a friend of mine, Sugarcube.” She says as she looks at me.
She then lets go and I stand up. “Thanks Applejack. And Ken, what do you mean by branch?” I ask as I remember he said something about that a little bit ago.
He sighs “Gregar, do you know what a hoard is?”
“Not exactly.”
“What about a herd?” Applejack asks.
I then look between the two of the for a few seconds before it clicks in my mind. “I can assume it is something along those lines isn’t it?”
“Kind of… Think of it like an organization. One with multiple branches and members of different branches. I’m the head of my wing, the Chroma Branch. The Kazoku family is the name of the hoard, but the catch is that a lot of it’s members actually consist of other Displaced.” He told me. Damn that's a lot of people.
“That is a lot of family then it seems. Who started this whole thing then?”
“A Displaced by the name of Zinnia. She's the Alpha of the entire family along with her fellow Alpha Umbra. Zinnia is a half-dragon type pokemon and Umbra is an undead overlady. I don’t know much of the other branches, but I sent a letter to Zi asking for her thoughts on a future get together so everyone can meet each other and get themselves settled. The temple is the home of the family.”
As I heard that, I remember the name Zinnia from playing Pokemon. “Someone got Displaced from Pokemon Alpha Sapphire/Omega Ruby? That’s interesting to learn.”
“Yeah,” Ken says as he nods his head “I still have a few tokens from some of the other Displaced I met. There’s the homeworld gems and the crystal gems, Gray, Asphyxious and lastly Zinnia’s.” He then shows me an anklet which I can assume is Zinnia’s token.
“Well, to be honest, you are the first Displaced I met since I woke up from a fifteen hundred year slumber.” well first overall actually.
“And hey, I’m honored to get the chance to meet you… speaking of tokens can I have yours?” he asks me as I see Gray’s necklace from Fairy Tail around his neck.
“Hey that's Gray’s necklace from Fairy Tail.” I say as I see it. “And my token… hmm one sec. TOBI!!” I remember since Beast Over is still active I can’t give him my token, so I call for Tobi to help me with that problem.
Shortly after I say his name a tear in the void appears and out he steps.
“You called Gregy?” Tobi says to me.
I feel my left eye twitch when he says that “I told you not to CALL ME THAT! Anyway Ken here needs my token.”
“Alright hold on… I have it here somewhere.” He then checked his pockets and threw around some kunai and shurikens. Then he went through his sleeves and a whole bunch of stuff came out like summoning scrolls, where the hell does he keep this stuff or even why. I then see some sort of gun that looks familiar but can’t remember from where. Then after a few minutes of awkwardly standing there he finally has it.
“Aha there it is, here you go Kenny boy.” He says to Ken as he throws my navi mark over to him.
“Word of advice… don’t call me “Kenny”. I hate that nickname.” Ken says in almost a growl, well it seems I am also one who doesn’t like a nickname like that. Sometimes I hate Tobi, but he is a good friend. “Alright, and I’m to assume you have mine Gregar?”
“Yeah I do.”
“Well anyway I need to get going and ‘Kenny’, here a little present.” Tobi says as he drops the gun on the ground and slides it over to Ken. “Something to help you fight with, can’t always be relying on a bow and arrow.” I was fully prepared to smack Tobi over the head like Gibs does to Dinozzo from NCIS. Then I look over to Ken as he picks it up and I notice the gun is Hawkmoon from Destiny. His dragon arm glowed a little as he held it, interesting.
“I was going to get mad at that, but I’m going to let that slide this time.” He then looks at me. “Before you take Gregar back though, I think he was supposed to be explaining to me about his Equestria if I’m not mistaken.”
“Right, now first things first, how much do you know of Nightmare Moon?” I ask him as I remember I needed to tell him that.
“Not much, other than that she’s a personality of Luna that was twisted somehow. I’m not an expert on the case, but please, continue.”
“Alright well, my Nightmare Moon is actually the sister of Luna and Celestia. She is really nice where I’m from and if not for her, I don’t think I would have been like I am now. Plus she is my wife as well so there is that. So that makes me Luna and Celestia’s brother-in-law. And I have some friends who would like to meet you if you ever come to my Equestria. Another quick question before I go, have you heard of the Megaman Battle Network series?”
“Briefly, heard of it once or twice.” He tells me. “Did not play as many of the games I wanted to when I was a kid. I’m guessing you’re from one of those games?”
“Yeah I am, I am Gregar from the sixth game, but I am the beasted out version of Megaman from the same game.”
“Well makes sense.” He says “Earlier when I felt your presence, I couldn’t tell what exactly you were because I couldn’t sense you life force. Since you were in your beast out form, I think that blocked off my sense capabilities. Like camouflage.”
“I guess so. Anyway, been nice talking to you and if you are ever in a jam, don’t hesitate to call me.”
“Same here. If you need to talk or just ask me something, I’ll be there to help. Have a safe trip.”
“I will, till next time, brother.” I give him a two finger salute as he waves goodbye and me and Tobi enter the portal and we get sent back to my Equestria. I stretch my arms out and I then hear a beeping and a flash of light goes off. After the light goes away I see that I am back in my Beast Out form again and I hear ‘Beast Over protocol finished’. I smirk and then see Tobi giving me a thumbs up, I nod at him and then smack him upside the head.
Tobi clutches his head and stares at me. “What was that for?”
I give him a deadpan stare “For being an idiot by calling Ken ‘Kenny’ twice. You know he hated it the first time so why did you think it was a nice idea to call him it again?”
“I just thought he would get a laugh out of it.” He then gets on his knees and I see sparkles around his hole in the mask as tears are on the sides of the mask and his hands are clasped together in front of him. “Please don’t be angry with me.” he says in a squeaky voice that sounded like he was about to start crying any second.
I step backwards a little, honestly I was creeped the fuck out with what he was doing. I sigh “Alright, alright I’m not mad, just a little irritated at you.” He then cheers as he jumps and brings me in for a bone crushing hug.
‘Must. Resist. Urge. To. Kill. Him.’ I tell myself as he is still hugging me. He then lets go and flips backwards in the air and vanishes. I shake my head as I smile underneath my mask.
“I swear as much as I hate him from time to time, I don’t think I could ever bring myself to hate him enough to lose friendship with him or even kill him.”
I then look around my surroundings and see that I am further away from the Crystal Empire than I was originally was. Mainly because I see no more snow anywhere. I then think about what happened with Ken.
“I am going to have to apologize to him for how Tobi acted.” I sigh as I remember how I briefly told him about what happened to me in the past.
“One day I will have to tell him what happened to me, but that won’t be for a while.” I am then thinking on going towards Appleloosa to see what I can find in the badlands. As I am about to begin running, I remember what I said about Nightmare Moon with Ken. I then look towards where Canterlot is and I sigh sadly.
“It has been far too long since I have last seen her.” I then take a deep breath and exhale as anxiety starts to take over. “I don’t want her to worry any longer.” I then make my decision and head towards Canterlot and reunite with Nightmare Moon. I then have music play as I make my way. I hit random and when it begins it is a soft piano melody and I can only think to myself ‘I will see you again soon Nightmare, I’m coming home.’
Pov 3rd Canterlot Castle The next day.
“So does that mean?” Twilight asks Celestia as she anxiously awaits the verdict of her task in the Crystal Empire.
Celestia softly smiles towards Twilight and nods “You passed Twilight.” Twilight controls herself from jumping up in joy and settles herself for bowing. She then walks out of the room and Celestia, Luna and Nightmare all share a look and smile at each other.
Nightmare then looks sad as a tear rolls down her face “Too think Sombra would do something like that.”
“I know, but we should be grateful that Gregar was there to help when he did. It is nice that his memories are back in order.” Celestia says only to wince as she then looks towards Nightmare as her mane hides her face. “I’m sorry Nightmare, but I also wish to see Gregar return.”
Nightmare clenches her fist slightly and without Luna or Celestia noticing her eyes briefly flash to slits and anger goes across her face. She then lets out a sigh and looks towards Celestia.
“I know, but it has been far too long since we have seen each other and to hear that his memories are back is all I need to hear.” Tears are flowing out of her eyes then “But I just want to see him again, to be able to hold him in my arms once more.” Luna and Celestia go over and hug her as they too have tears in their eyes. Shortly afterwards Nightmare thanks them and they end the hug. They head towards balcony and look upon Twilight and her friends as they leave for Ponyville.
“Are you sure she is ready for this?” Luna asks Celestia as she holds Star Swirls journal.
“To be truthful, I have no idea if she is ready for this. But ultimately it will be how she grows from this. If it were up to me I would never ask her to go through this, but you know how the Tree of Harmony works, it never gives out clear answers.” Celestia answers.
Nightmare smiles “It seems as if you are treating Twilight if she were your own daughter. But that is a given since you always act like a mother.”
Celestia smiles and then frowns as she holds a hand to her stomach.
Nightmare grimaces “I’m sorry sister, I forgot-”
“It is alright Nightmare,” Celestia interrupts Nightmare as she brings her hand away from her stomach “It is not your fault that I have never given birth.” Celestia, like Nightmare Moon, is also a virgin.
“One day I hope you will experience being a real mother though.” Luna says to lighten the mood a little. “But I think we all can agree we would like to all experience the joy and turmoil of being a mother.”
All three of them share a chuckle at that. Then Nightmare Moon excuses herself to head to her bedroom.
‘Well it didn’t help that you two wanted to be in a herd with Gregar back then. But he was not comfortable with the idea on multiple partners.’ Nightmare says to herself ‘But I don-’ she stops suddenly as she begins to hear music coming from somewhere in the castle. It is faint but she hears a gentle almost hypnotic melody.
As she is walking it gets louder and that no guards, maids, or servants are there as well. She soon finds out it is coming from her room. She prepares herself as she puts one hand behind her and she forms a one handed scythe from the shadows and her other begins to open the door. ‘Whoever is in my room better have a good explanation.’ she says to herself with a scowl on her face. She opens the door and drops her scythe and it dissolved before it hit the floor. Nightmare could only stare in shock as her eyes are getting misty. There standing in her room looking out the window as the sun is beginning to go down is Gregar in his human form.
He has his hands in his pockets as he watches the sunset.
“Huh?” Gregar then turns towards where Nightmare is and gives a soft smile as he sees her. “Hey Nightmare, been a while.”
Nightmare struggles to say something and walks towards him. When she stops in front of him, she brings a hand up to his face and her hand rests on his cheek. She chokes back a sob as she smiles as she can feel his warmth. Gregar smiles as well and holds her hand there with his own.
“It has been far too long.” Nightmare says in a breaking voice filled with happiness. Gregar then lets go of her hand and brings her in for a hug which she happily accepts. Nightmare rests her head on his shoulder and tears are flowing out of her eyes. She then breaks down and cries and Gregar comforts her as tears of his own join hers. She then pulls her head back to look at Gregar. Gregar looks into her eyes and can see pure happiness in them. Then Nightmare Moon brings her face towards Gregar going in for a kiss and soon the distance closes.
“I love you, Gregar.” She says before she kisses him. From there Gregar can feel the passion and he returns her feelings. Shortly afterwards they end the kiss and they settle for being in each other's embrace, happy to finally be reunited after so long.
Pov 3rd Location:????
“So, it seems the plan to take the Crystal Empire has failed.” a deep voice called out to many who have gathered. “Bring them forward.”
Soon chains are rattling as two beings are brought before this unknown being. Soon it is revealed that the beings are Sombra and Shademan.
Sombra is beaten and and scowling at the being in shadows while Shademan has a neutral face and both are forced to kneel before the being.
“Sombra, what do you have to say for yourself about this failure to take what you said was ‘Your rightful throne on the world’?”
Sombra’s scowl deepened “I had everything in place, everything in order for me to take it all, but it was you useless darkloids that failed to stop or even be rid of Gregar that my plans had FAILED!!!”
“Shademan, what do you have to say for yourself?”
Sombra voiced his displeasure “What?!?! so you have no-” Sombra is cut off as a laser cuts through air and pierces his horn. Sombra looks on in disbelief as his horn is completely disintegrated and is nothing more than a smoking bump on his forehead.
“If I was still talking to you, I would have said so Sombra. Now be silent.”
Sombra scowls at the being and grimaces in pain, but remains silent.
Shademan begins “While it is unfortunate that I have failed in my mission, I will say that if we are to continue in the main plan to bring the master his full power. I accept the necessary punishment for this outcome, Laserman.”
The being, now known as Laserman, steps out of the shadows and approaches them.
Laserman nods and Shademan walks away and a door is heard being shut as Shademan accepts a punishment. Laserman then looks upon Sombra.
“What else do you have to say for yourself Sombra?”
Sombra growls and stands up to Laserman, which barely works since Laserman is a good two feet taller than Sombra.
“Coldman should be punished as well, he failed in-” Sombra is stopped as Laserman backhands him and Sombra feels some of his bones crack from the force of it.
“Coldman was only told to delay Gregar, nothing more nothing less.” [background music]
Sombra slowly gets up and glares at Laserman. “Why did you have a single darkloid delay Gregar then, why not have an army for him.” Laserman says nothing and Sombra laughs. “I see, it is because you fear him. You fear him because he could kill you. Yet why would you think a single darkloid would be able to defeat, much less delay him long enough for me to take over the Crystal Empire? As I see it, the one who failed here is you, Laserman.” Sombra then smirks “You know I am right if you have nothing to say.”
“Are you finished spewing out nonsense?” Laserman says to Sombra.
“W-What?” Sombra angrily declares.
“The reason I had him delayed by only one darkloid was because I didn’t see it fit to reveal all of what we could do in one go. You so foolishly believe that killing him would be right, but yet what did you do when you had the chance to kill him you stood there and gloated over how you beat him. While yes killing him would make things easier for our plans, we cannot simply kill him when he can call on help. And now he has entered the multiverse and has a token of another displaced at his disposal. In the end the one who failed here is you Sombra, you are nothing more than a unicorn who had stumbled upon power that made you think you could rival the most powerful beings in existence. You are a fool and nothing more.”
Sombra growls at him and prepares to strike until the chains holding him force him to one knee.
“Burnerman, come and deal with this trash.” Laserman then walks away. Soon Sombra can feel beings leave this place one by one until he feels only one other in the room besides Laserman. He looks behind and hears footsteps walking towards him and laughter. Sombras eyes widen in fear as he sees flames flickering in and out from the shadows.
The flames soon stay and reveal Burnerman with a malicious grin on his face. His eyes are locked onto Sombra and he stops in front of him.
“Well I was hoping your horn was still attached so I could gut you with it, but oh well I can make do without it.” His jets of flame are gone and his hands come out the end of his flamethrowers. He strokes his chin in thought “Hmm, what to do, what to do?” He then snaps his fingers “Oh I know.”
He then retracts one of his hands and Sombra thinks he is going to burn him where he stands.
“Open wide.” Burnerman says to Sombra and forces his flamethrower down Sombras’ throat. Then Sombra feels some sort of liquid come down and he is forced to drink it. After a short amount of time the liquid stops and Sombra smells a foul odor come from within him as he slowly chokes on whatever he was forced to drink.
“Well time to see what you look like when you burn from the inside out, I made sure you were extra flammable by making you drink gasoline.” Then Burnerman lights his flamethrower and Sombra screams in pain. Burnerman takes out his arm and Sombra screams of pain are heard by all. Sombra throws up but it is mixed in with the fuel and flames burn his throat as it continues to burn within him. Soon His flesh is being eaten away by the flames that are poking out from inside him. Sombra can only scream and writhe in pain as the flames burn him. Soon his screams of pain are silenced and all that is remained of Sombra is a charred corpse. Burnerman looks upon this in twisted glee and laughs at the remains of Sombra.
Burnerman calms down a little but his grin is still on his face “How far has the plan come along for the return Laserman?”
“It is going along as planned, the outcome of what happened with the Empire would have only sped up his return. This is only a minor setback.”
“I see,” Burnerman the chuckles “I can’t wait to test out what would happen to Gregar as we hold him down and burn his beloved wife in front of his own eyes, helpless to save her.”
“As much as that thought amuses me, that would only spell our doom faster.”
Burnerman shrugs “I know, but it helps when I want to see every single one of these damn ponies burned before my eyes, as I laugh upon their remains and dance upon their ashes.” He then turns serious “Besides the reign of the ponies have gone on long enough, the time of the darkloids is coming.”
Laserman nods “We have been patient, and our patience will be rewarded when our master returns.”
Burnerman nods at this and turns around. After a short time he pauses and looks back at Laserman. “By the way, why did you save them?”
“Sombra was only caught in the teleport here. While Shademan had failed, he still has his uses. Our master is merciful and had agreed to give Shademan a second chance, but he knows what happens if he fails again.”
“At times it seems as if our master is too merciful.” Burnerman says as he walks away. A door is heard being shut and Laserman is the only one who remains in the room.
Soon Laserman gets up and walks behind the throne he was sitting on and walks through the wall behind it. It reveals a simple room with only an orb on a pedestal. Laserman walks over to the orb and kneels in front of it.
“The Empire is in the ponies hold master.”
Soon the orb swirls and a distorted voice is heard “I see, though I have already heard this why did you inform me of this?”
“I came to see what our next move will be.”
The voice is silent for a bit until it said something. “Begin preparations for taking the griffon kingdom.”
“Yes master.” Laserman nods and stands up. he walks out of the room until the master stops him.
“Laserman, there is something on your mind isn’t there.”
Laserman stops and turns around. “Yes, from what Sombra told us Gregar has turned even more dangerous with how he unlocked Super Beast Out.”
“While that is concerning, until he learns to control the power that Super Beast Out can give his stamina will quickly drain.”
“Yes but he also managed to somehow gain Duo’s crest ability.”
The Master then gave out a deep growl at that.
“I see, then it will only be a matter of time until Duo comes before him. For now though matters can only continue as they are.”
Laserman nods and leaves the room.
‘Hmm, Gregar you are moving along faster than I thought. But it will only a matter of time before you fail your friends.’ The Master says to himself as the room loses it color and it becomes barren once again.
