Karmic Effect

Delsin's POV

After another long while of searching the Everfree Forest for more of the creeps that was "protecting" the Paradox Child, Geek and I arrived at the Ruins of the Castle of the Royal Pony Sisters. Upon seeing the Ruins, nostalgia struck hard. As if in a trance, I walked into the castle and went to the spot where (in my Equestria) the statue of myself once stood. I looked around, getting a feel of the place that was like unto the place I spent a thousand years in stone. One thing that stood out was that the Elements of Harmony were still there.
"The Event must not have happened yet." I said.
"What event?" Geek asked, stepping up beside me.
I pointed to the Elements on the special pedestal. "Look at these. These are the Elements of Harmony in their inert form. On the Thousandth Summer Sun Celebration, Nightmare Moon will return and these will be the means of purifying her." I looked at Geek who had a look of wonder in his eyes. He went to grab one of them, but I fired a weak smoke shot at his hand, startling him. "Don't touch. Fate will determine when they will be used and by who. It will be here where they will be used."

I hear a sound above me and Obsidian lands right next to me. He salutes to me and was about to give a report, but before he could speak, I hear and sense Carrow. "Hey Dad! How are you? We've been looking for you!" She said as if she hadn't a care in the world. I turn around and see Carrow standing behind Nox and giving him a huge grin.

"Nonononono, you shouldn't be here! You have to escape! NOW!" Nox said with no emotion in his voice. He didn't take his eyes off of me as he said that. Despite not having any emotion in his voice, I could sense the fear he felt.

"Nox, what is going on her-" Before I could finish my sentence, I felt a sudden headache hit. I stumbled a bit and held my hand to my head.

'Delsin!'

'Karma?!'

'Nisled is coming!'

'What?!'

'Damn it, Delsin! The Vision!'

I understood what Karma was implying and I sprung into action. I smoke dashed to Carrow, grabbed her and tossed her to Obsidian and Geek. *Obsidian! Form a barrier! NOW!* Geek caught Carrow (rather clumsily) just as Obsidian formed an obsidian wall between them and Nox and I. Just after I shouted to Obsidian, I smoke dashed close to Nox and shoved him back a few feet. I looked to the doorway of the room and I saw a red beam of Neon headed straight for my head. I jumped, more out of surprise reaction and the Neon shot hit me in my left shoulder.

I yelled out in pain as the shot knocked me to the ground. My vision was blurred from the pain for a few minutes as I saw my attacker stroll right up to me. When my vision cleared, I saw something that was next to impossible for me to comprehend.

I saw myself...but I was different. The jacket was a red-ish color, his face seemed darker, and I could probably bet my engagement that the symbol on the back of his vest was the Bio-Terrorist symbol.

The other me knelt down, grabbed my vest lapels and hoisted me off of the ground and against the wall. "You know, you're a real pain in the ass," he said before throwing me across the room, where he (somehow) caught me and slammed me onto the floor. "And since you took my chance to throw this world into pure, unfiltered Chaos, I'll just kill you here and now, and let your world fall into Chaos at the hooves of your heart broken fiancé." He then gave me a maniacal grin as he charged up Neon in his fist. Just before he attacked, I heard the sound of electricity and he was pulled away from me in a flash of electricity.

"Over my dead body!" I heard a gravelly voice shout out. I looked up and saw the Cybercorn standing with her arms covered in purple electricity. The other me stood up and saw the electrified hoof and talon ready to attack.

Other me began to laugh. "Of course, I'll grant you that request, Twilight Sparkle." A shockwave blasted out, knocking him back.

"I've said it once, Nisled, and I'll say it again!" Her eyes glowed an angry purple and her lighting began to have a black edge to them (if lightning had edges). "That name died when you BRUTALLY MURDERED MY FRIENDS!!! MY NAME IS DUSK SPARK!!!" She then launched herself at Nisled and both of them fought, Neon coated chain against gigawatt blades.

A lot of dust was kicked up in the fight, obscuring the brawl from view. I heard a number of explosions from within the dust cloud. Various Neon and electric shots fired out in random directions from it. One shock grenade landed in a patch of vines and exploded, making the vines smoulder and smoke. I used the smoke to heal myself. Nox then walked over and helped me up.

"Well then. You are now safe from me trying to kill you, since now I know you aren't the one in the many futures I saw." He said to me.

"Doesn’t that give you a headache?" I tried joking. If Nox gave a response, I didn't hear it as I noticed the fight winding down. The dust cloud cleared and I saw that both Nisled and Dusk were breathing heavily. Nisled seemed really dinged up, but Dusk looked worse off. Her clothing was torn to shreds and her mechanical wings and horn were torn off.

"Ya'know, I really loved that fight. I think I'll keep you alive." He then kicked Dusk in the gut. She grunted in pain and fell down. "But I'll at least keep part of your request." He grabbed her non-mechanical arm, and I was half-expecting for him to absorb her power. However, he did something completely different. He pulled her non-mechanical arm clean off and threw it at the obsidian barrier extremely hard. So hard that the arm broke through the stone barrier. Dusk was screaming, bloody murder. I heard yells and scream of fear coming from inside the barrier.

That just set me off. *YARGH!* I fired off a cinder blast, knocking him away from Dusk and against a wall. I then fired off cinder missile after cinder missile, covering the wall Nisled was on with an excessive amount of soot. The area also had a lot of smoke from all the missiles. After I fired off all the missiles that I could, I fell to my knees in exhaustion, both from firing the missiles and the temper flare. I was about to reabsorb the smoke, but I sensed something was off. The smoke seemed to flow to where Nisled was.

When the smoke cleared, it wasn't because the smoke flowed off, it was because Nisled absorbed it. He was chuckling in an evil way. "Oh, man, you need to remember to not use smoke against a smoke conduit." I didn't respond. I had only a look of shock on my face. Nisled approached me with his chain unraveled. I stood up and unraveled my chain.

"Then let’s just fight." We've both swung our chains and they met, causing a lot of pings and rattles. We kept fighting with our chains and I practically lost contact with the real world, focusing only on Nisled.

Obsidian's POV

Having seen blood, combat, and dismembered body parts, I didn’t really have a freak out from the purple pony arm and hoof crashing through my barrier. The blue geek and Carrow must have had issues, because as soon as their soft minds processed the arm on the ground, Geek jumped into Carrow's arms and both of them began to yell and/or scream in fear. I rolled my eyes and covered the arm with a stone covering. Their fear volume went down a little bit, but it was still loud. I growled in frustration and fired two smooth and low velocity rocks into their mouths, shutting them up instantly.

"If you're done screaming like a bunch of babbling baboons, then we need to figure out what's going on out there a come up with a plan!"

'Delsin is fighting his Karmic opposite, Nox is readying to fight the Fire Mage, and we can beat them IF we get Delsin stronger.'

"Thank you, and no-" Wait a moment. "Who in Tartarus said that!?" I looked over to Geek and Carrow and saw that they had the same confused look on their faces. A few seconds after I spoke, I heard the recognizable sound of teleportation and an Earth pony mare was inside the barrier.

"Hi ther-" She began to say, but out of reaction, I encased her legs in stone. "HEY!" She shouted before teleporting out of the restraints. "Do you do that to everypony that offers their help?"

I was flabbergasted. I never saw an Earth pony use magic...unless... "Are you a conduit?"

In response, she teleported to the ceiling of the barrier, turning herself upside down and sticking to it. "Maybe I am, maybe I'm not. Either way, you want to get rid of Nisled and the Fire Mage, and I can help with both."

"How and why?" Geek asked, as he peered out of the hole to view the fight. "Your Wakfu seems to match what I can sense from Delsin's doppelganger, so for all we know, you're working with him."

The mare waved her hoof dismissively and teleported to in front of Geek. "For one thing, just because my Wacky-Foo or whatever matches Nisled's, it doesn't mean I work with him. I could simply have a similar energy signature or have the same powers." She emphasized that last point by placing a vest on that resembled Delsin's (it had her baseball and wood screw cutie mark on the back) and put on a beanie, like Delsin's. As she was floating in Geek's face, I remembered something.

"Wait a moment!" I said in fancolt excitement. "You're Screwball! The Creator of the Karmic Eagle, Benevolent User of Chaos, and Prankster Extraordinaire!" She bowed in her floating position.

"Creator of the Karmic Eagle?" Geek asked in confusion.

"It was an accident," she muttered as she pulled a blue and red eagle egg out of her propeller beanie and tossed it to Geek. He barely caught it and once he had a good grip on it, he examined it in wonder.

"Benevolent User of Chaos and Prankster Extraordinaire?" Carrow asked in confusion. Screwball pulled a card out of thin air, teleported to Carrow, gave her the card, and spun her around at a rapid speed. After a few seconds, Carrow was transformed into a giant card. Carrow was on the face side while Screwball's cutie mark was on the back side. Carrow looked like she was trying to escape the card.

Before any actuall ruckus could be made by her, Screwball tipped the card over, revealing Carrow in the pose that she was in on the face side of the card, albeit, lacking the look of terror. Screwball picked up the giant card, shrunk it to the size of a regular playing card, and gave it to her. "A present from a prank. This card will produce a combat oriented clone when ever you need a distraction to get away or if you need someone to help you in a bad fight."

Carrow suddenly developed an excited look. "Can it play poker or gamble?"

"Yes it can, but its not recommended. If it loses...Well...you don't want to see the aftermath." Carrow dropped her excited look.

"Um, not to interrupt the gift party, but you said that we need to help Delsin," I said. Screwball facehoofed at that.

"Ugh, curse this teenage mind," she muttered. Turning to Geek and Carrow, she said, "Alright, first, channel your Wacky-Foo or whatever you call magic into this floodlight blub." She pulled out a floodlight bulb and Geek and Carrow began to charge the bulb with their magic. Screwball then turned to me. "As for you, make something that looks like this." She then pulled up a picture of something strange. A weapon perhaps.

I commanded the rocks to form the shape desired. It was rough on the outside, but it looked how it needed. I looked to see how Carrow and Geek were doing, and I saw that they had finished charging the floodlight bulb. Screwball took the weapon, cracked it open in the middle, placed the floodlight bulb inside it, and closed it. She then floated to the hole and took aim with it. "DELSIN! CATCH!" A flash of light left the tip of the weapon and flew out of the barrier.

Screwball reopened the weapon and the now depleted floodlight bulb clattered to the floor. "Now, we need to replicate the energy of a Blast Core so that Delsin can get stronger.

Delsin's POV

The brawl between me and Nisled had dragged on for quite a while. We would swing our chains and fists at each other, smoke dashing every so often, trying to throw each other off. Neither of us could gain an advantage over the other.

"DELSIN! CATCH!" I turned my head to the source of the voice and I saw an orb of light passing another fight headed towards me. I understood the intentions of whoever sent the ball of light. I gave Nisled a sharp jab to his throat and I caught the ball of light, absorbing it in the process.

"Alright! Now I can take this fight to the next level!" I began to fire off light bolts at him at a rapid pace. They did some damage, scorching his clothing a bit, but he shrugged off the attacks. Even my flash grenades didn’t seem to do much.

The fight carried on for a few more minutes before I began to feel a bit drained. Nisled recognized this and began to fight a bit more aggressively. Just before he could overwhelm me, I felt a surge of energy hit me and I could see that the edges of my vision turn turquoise and I could see myself firing a laser version of my light bolt.

My vision cleared just as Nisled went to deliver a punch. I sidestepped the punch and fired off my new light beam. I did so by placing both of my fists forward, both enclosed in light and one beam of light came from it, hitting Nisled and sending him flying into the far wall. He got up and dusted himself off. "It looks like I'm gonna have to step up my game." He then reached behind himself, and pulled out a Neon "Open" sign and drained its neon.

The fight resumed, me firing off light bolts, flash grenades, and light beams and he sped around the room, firing neon bolts at me, as well as rushing in with his neon chain and working in a few slashes before retreating. After a while of fighting again, I began to feel drained again, but before Nisled could even notice, I was hit again by another energy surge. My vision showed me using what looked like two Keyblades, Oathkeeper and Oblivion.

Once my vision cleared, I channeled light into my arms, willing the Keyblades to appear. When they did, they were...different than what I thought. Both Oathkeeper and Oblivion didn't have real color to them. The were both a bright white color and they seemed to be solid, yet ethereal. I also couldn't feel what I felt when I was near Sora's Keyblades...Magic. These were just cheap copies. "RAAGH!" Cheap copies that saved my life from two red video based claws. The Key constructs held very well.

I pushed him off of me and I began to hack and slash with my key constructs against his video constructs. Evidently, his constructs aren't very strong, as it doesn't take a lot to hack through his claws and his summoned demons. His video sword was a bit tougher, but I was still able to hack through it as well.

I managed to bludgeon his forehead with the guard of the Oblivion construct, knocking him back. I turned towards the barrier and I saw that Screwball was at the hole, aiming what looked like a grenade launcher at me. She fired what looked like a turquoise energy at me and it sailed a few feet before a concrete barrier rose up and intercepted it. Then some concrete plugged the hole that Screwball was firing out of. I turned to Nisled and saw that he had switched to concrete.

"I've had about enough of you!" Nisled's arms then went from it's golden concrete glow to a blood red mist and his eyes turned yellow. He then fired what looked like a concentration of the mist at me. I was so surprised by the move that I didn't dodge. I had no idea what element he had just used and I didn't know if it would have done if it missed me or hit me. I say that because when the shot hit me, I glowed red for a few moments, but the glow then shrunk and was over my pocket. I dug into my pocket and pulled out Carrow's Token and saw that it's energy spiked and seemed to have absorbed the spell.

The red energy aura around the coin dissipated and was replaced by a turquoise aura. Thinking on instinct, I absorbed the energy from the Token and my vision went turquoise again. I saw myself literally glowing in light and I was levitated. Pillars of light then began erupting from the ground, harming enemies and healing allies.

Once my vision cleared, I began to charge the light within my body and began to levitate. Before I knew it, I was glowing extremely bright and began to summon pillars of light. Nisled and whoever Nox was fighting were hit by pillar, after pillar, after pillar. Nox was enveloped in a pillar or two, healing any injuries and strengthening him.

After a few minutes, I dropped back to the ground, physically spent, but emotionally recovered. Nisled was laying in heap, apparently exhausted from taking the beating he took. I looked over to Nox and his opponent, and they seemed evenly matched in the fight. His opponent looked weird fighting that tux with what looked like bunny ears on his head. Nox still seemed to glow from the effect of my Light Barrage.

Deciding that the fight between Nox and Bunny Tux has taken enough time. I lept into flowmotion and using hard light rope, I spun around the well dressed mage until he was tied up well. I then pulled really hard on the light rope and Bunny Tux was spun rapidly around and then landed in a dizzy heap next to Dusk Spark. She then electrocuted her griffin hand and brought it down on Bunny Tux and bands of electricity held his arms and legs down to the ground.

At that I remembered what had transpired with Dusk, and so I ran to her and began to examine the now healed up stump where her right arm was. The flesh had healed over and was starting to scar, but there was still a chunk of bone that was sticking out of the stump. Nisled really doesn't know how to amputate limbs very well. I looked up to Nox as he stood over me. I gestured my head in Nisled's direction. "You can do what you want with Nisled. I'm going to see to the clean up." I stood up and carried her to the concrete and stone barrier. I knocked on the stone portion. *If you have any medical experience, I need you out here.*

The stone portions of the barrier fell down, leaving the concrete portions to be held up by Screwball's magic. She carefully lowered the concrete to the ground, as Obsidian, Geek, and Carrow came out to see the aftermath of the fight.

Dusk Spark's POV

Whatever Delsin did with that Light Element or whatever, it was the perfect relief for my pain...my physical pain. I've had my wings, horn, and left arm forcefully removed in the same manner before my world's Discord saved my life. "I didn't mean for this kind of chaos to happen," he had said to me, as he placed cybernetic limbs on me. He was going to honor my position as an Alicorn and have a hoof on my cybernetic arm, but I wanted to gouge out Nilsed's eyes every chance I got for what he did to my life. And I couldn't do that with hooves. Now, I was broken again. I've lost another limb and it could take forever for me to even try to get a replacement.

After Delsin gave the Fire Mage motion sickness and I placed arc restraints on him, Delsin carried me to where the youth and the Anti-Skullcap was, asking in his guttural tounge for help. The stone barrier and, subsequently, the concrete that covered it in spots came down, allowing Carrow, Gamma, Obsidian, and Screwball to leave their "fortress" and see the now more ruined...ruins.

"Yikes," Gamma commented. "This room looks like it was hit by a miniature atomic bomb!"

"And that pony's arm," Carrow said, approaching me with Obsidian beside her. "What happened to it?"

"Amateur amputation," I said. "As you can see, I've had quite a few." Carrow looked ready to barf at that point.

I looked over in Nox's direction, and I saw him lifting Nisled up to eye level. Of course, Discord had done a few other enhancements to me, so I used my hearing enhancement to figure out what was going on. Nox had pulled out a magical sword and had it at Nisled's throat. "Remember your place when fighting a GOD."

Nisled chuckled. "Oh don't worry. I know." Nox then lopped off Nisled's head. I smiled, seeing Nisled die gave me some satisfaction. I just wished it was me that took his head off. I turned my attention to Obsidian, who was encasing the stub that once was her right arm in a stone covering.

"Thanks," I muttered. He nodded.

"No problem. I'm just glad this is over and what's-his-face can now get along with Delsin."

"Let's not tempt fate," Screwball said. "Anyway, I've gotta go do something real fast, I'll be back as soon as I can." She then vanished.

I laid my head back, lazily looking at Nisled's dead body. Out of boredom, I sent out a light pulse and I felt that Nisled still had life in him. It wouldn't have surprised me, as most dead people/ponies/creatures still have bioelectricity in some of the hours after death. What surprised me was that after I saw the life signals, the body began to move.

The body stood up and faced Nox. Before Nox could even react, his whole body, minus the shoulders up, were incased in concrete. Nisled's body walked to over to where his head had rolled, picked it up, and placed it on his shoulders. Immediately, a red aura surrounded the breaks in flesh and sealed it up perfectly, as if his head hadn't been chopped off at all. His mouth twitched into a maniacal smile as he turned back towards Nox.

"I can see my place when fighting a GOD," he bragged as his hand charged up with the red energy...Chaos Magic at it's worst. "I see myself on top."
