Fragmented
Chapter 12: One Villain For Another
Previous Chapter Next ChapterCelestia was on drugs. Well, that’s what she thought. It was true that the tranquilizing poison from Creativity had completely hampered any chance of her trying to move. Of course Celestia had no clue about that, no, she thought she had taken something because she could swear that Twilight Sparkle, her studious faithful student, had barged into the throne room and tried to rape her. If that wasn’t enough, the Princess could have sworn that another Twilight had rode in and attacked the first one. Celestia moaned from a headache. To complete the craziness, yet another Twilight barged in from the window and had taken her hostage and planned to kill her. Celestia had never been an equine akin to doing drugs, but she must have done something to make her see triples. Her mind tried its best to comprehend what was happening while outside her body took multiple physical pains.
“The fuck did Lust do to you?” Anger looked at the limp body of Celestia, bruised in several places due to Anger’s rough handling. The fragment shrugged. “Like a give a shit, it’ll make you that much easier to kill.” Anger brought her hoof down and slammed into Celestia’s face, leaving a brilliant mark.
Celestia could only moan pathetically, the poison stopping any attempts at, well, anything. The Solar Goddess didn’t even know what was going on anymore. Unfortunately for Celestia, Anger took her inability to do anything as an insult to her. “Bitch, I’ll make you pay for ever thinking of using me!!!”
Anger gagged as dozens of strands paper-thin wire wrapped around her neck and pulled her back and away from Celestia. Skidding about the ground and coming to a stop, Anger turned her head to see what had taken her away from her prize. The wire led to a bench and upon that bench sat Creativity, in the traditional Lyra style as it was called. “Hello Anger, how have you been? Done anything interesting lately, you know, other than going completely bat-shit crazy and trying to kill everybody. Love the mane by the way, very Rainbow Dash.” Creativity smirked confidently.
Anger used her magic to undo the wire from her neck. “Creativity! You traitorous bitch! You think you can judge me?! Like Celestia did?! You’re no better than me!” The fragment cut up the wire and stood up to face Creativity.
Creativity laughed. “Hahaha! Me? No better than you? Bitch please, I am a more than some crazed maniac whose only goal in life is to hurt any who wrong her and even fails at that. By the way, how’s Mute doing? Oh wait, that’s right, she’s dead!” Creativity jumped off the bench before it was obliterated by a magic blast from Anger.
“I’LL KLL YOU, DO YOU HEAR ME?!” Anger’s horn flared red and she had the darkest of scowls on her face. “I. WILL. KILL. YOU! YOU HEAR ME?!”
“Yes I can hear you, you needn’t shout. God, do you think I’m deaf?” Creativity dodged yet another blast sent forth from Anger, this one hit a nearby fountain and reduced it to rocky slag. “And like that you’ve ruined this gardens atmosphere.” Creativity sighed. “Now I’ll never be able to enjoy myself whilst I prance around gaily in this garden.”
“Who the fuck said you were ever going to survive this bitch?!” Anger cursed out.
Creativity burst out laughing. “What?! You think you’re going to kill me Anger? Please, use some sense.” The fragment stopped laughing and gave Anger a sadistic grin of confidence. “Besides, by the end of today I’ll be stronger than you can even hope to comprehend.”
Creativity suddenly gagged as red magic curled around her neck and choked her. Anger planned to strangle the life out of Creativity, but the latter was not about to let that happen. “Let’s see if I’m a good chef.” Creativity stated through the choking. Anger felt something on her leg. Creativity grinned. “Tonight’s specialty: MINCE MEAT!” Creativity’s magic wires tightened around Anger’s leg and began their own chokehold. It took less than a second for the metal strands to slice through Anger’s leg, sending blood and gore outwards in a geyser of red.
“AAHH FUCK!” Anger yelled, releasing Creativity. The yellow-eyed fragment jumped back to ensure Anger didn’t to strangle her again.
“Hmmm… That seemed to work, and I love the way it was prepared. Personally I prefer salad…” Creativity laughed.
Anger fell to the ground, off balanced by the loss of her leg. “Dammit, fuck, fuck!” She glared at Creativity, darkness in her eyes. “You fucking bitch!”
Creativity’s laughed died down to a chuckle. “Really? That’s it? You need to work on your insults sis; it’s embarrassing. Still… not like I care. Without an adequate amount of legs you’ll be quite easy to deal with. Now, let’s…” Creativity’s eyed widened.
Red magic poured out of Anger’s severed leg wound, spiraling about around her body. The fragment’s body was lifted into the air by her magic and was held in place as the magic fastened around her leg and hardened enough to form a new leg of pure magic. Creativity took on a shocked look of utter surprise, a new look for the fragment. Anger looked at her new magic leg, excess red magic flowing out of it like smoke. The fragment of hatred looked at Creativity with a dark grin. “You were saying sister?”
Creativity took a step back. “That’s bloody cheating…” The fragment said. “Pun intended.” She added, remarking the obscene amount of blood scattered around Anger.
“Sorry,” Anger stated confidently. “I don’t give a fuck.”
“Who really gives fucks nowadays anyway?” Creativity remarked, trying to stay calm. “Well, I mean except hipsters… seeing how that it’s not that main stre…” Creativity couldn’t finish her sentence as Anger’s magic aura leg morphed into a claw and grabbed Creativity, choking her again. “You’ve a choking fetish don’t you?!” Creativity said.
“You could say that.” Anger replied.
“Kinky.” The choking mare replied back.
Anger tightened her grip around Creativity, tossing Creativity above her head and several feet away. Creativity landed with a thud and skidded a foot or two before stopping. The fragment moaned. “Right, what have we learned today Creativity? That’s right! We learned that pissing off a crazy, homicidal mare with a magical aura leg is not the best of ideas. Tomorrow will learn just why friendship is magic…” Creativity made a disgusting puking sound as Anger landed on her with her aura claw. Once again, you guessed it, choking Creativity, Anger pressed down hard on her sister’s neck.
“I’m going to snap your neck like a twig.” The fragment promised to make truth her threat as she was only a few more pounds of pressure from ending Creativity’s life.
“I do not think so Anger!” Logic charged her horn and sent sparks of green electricity zigzagging at Anger, hitting the fragment dead center in the chest and sending her flying.
Creativity gagged and coughed as air reentered her systems. Sitting up and turning, she saw Logic and Lust coming from a door leading to the castle. “The hell were you two the last one thousand one hundred and twenty-eight words?!”
Logic gave Creativity a nasty glare. “Sorry, it seems that the castle’s magical defenses are going haywire, every time we teleported a far distance we ended up in the latrines.”
Creativity chuckled. “Really? That’s hilarious. Hope you didn’t catch anybody relieving themselves.”
“Nope, we didn’t.” Lust replied.
“Yes, we are so lucky. Now that that is settled, let us stand against Anger!” Logic declared as she helped Creativity up.
Creativity brushed the dirt off herself. “Right, let’s end this bitch.”
“WAS I MENTIONED?!”
The fragments turned to see Anger flying at them, magical claw ready to strike. All three instinctively dodged by jumping in different directions as Anger’s attack landed on the ground, sending rock, gravel, and dust flying upward. Not to be one to miss, Anger’s horn flared and a fiery red magical aura erupted from it and colliding with the escaping mares. The three cried out as the magic burned them and sent them flying. The three landed with loud thuds. Anger turned to Creativity’s direction and charged at the mare.
The position of Creativity’s head allowed her to see Anger coming. “Oh come on! What do you have against me?!”
“Other than the fact you are a most unpleasant creature?” Logic mocked as she picked herself up.
“Shut up sis, you’re not helping.” Creativity’s horn flared as magic exploded out of it and created a shield. Anger’s claw rammed against Creativity’s shield, causing a red and yellow flaring effect.
Logic gasped. “Creativity! …You know how to shield, I am impressed.”
“Yes well, I like to read sometimes and you’d be surprised what you can find in books.” Creativity said as she felt herself skidded slowly backwards from Anger’s power.
“It seems our mother has certainly rubbed off on you more than most.” Logic cooed neutrally.
Creativity laughed at her sister’s joking. “So it would seem… funny thing isn’t it?”
“Are you two honestly making small talk?!” Lust interjected.
“Shut up Lust.” Creativity yelled. “The big sisters are talking.”
“Shut up?! Anger’s gonna kill us and you two are joking?! The fuck’s with that?!” Lust couldn’t believe it. The first thing was that Creativity and Logic had actually formed an alliance, temporary though it may be. The more concerning thing to Lust was that Logic was making jokes, which was some scary shit right there.
Creativity laughed, despite a new level of pain arising from holding her shield. “HAHAHA! You still don’t get it do you Lust? This, all of this! This is a fight! A fight to the death no less! A fight… this is one time when creativity and logic…”
Anger’s eyes widened as a green aura enveloped her and tossed her away from Creativity. Logic appeared diagonal from Creativity in a flash of green. “Walk hoof in hoof. A common enemy makes friends of many.” The logical fragment stated; a confident, yet neutral, expression plastered on her face.
Creativity lifted her shield and smiled at Logic. “Awww… Logic, you actually do care. It’s enough to bring me to tears.”
Logic chuckled. “I suppose I do care about you, dear sister. I only wish that you could say the same.” The two burst out laughing.
Lust was at a loss, the hell was happening? Logic and Creativity hated each other, right? Why did they all of a sudden become buddy-buddy? It made no sense to the sexual fragment. It’s like they completely forgot the hell they’ve put each other through, like it’s just swept under the bridge. The hell was this? The fragment thought about it. Maybe, maybe because the two of them are both fragments of Twilight Sparkle? They’re family, maybe that’s all the reason they need to put down their differences and work together. Lust smiled a little bit, they really had come far, even her.
“Shall we finish this my sisters?” Logic asked confidently. “I think it is about time Anger is taken down.” The other two nodded at their sister and stood to challenge Anger.
The mare in question was recomposing herself. Finally succeeding, Anger looked to her sisters. Not wasting a moment, the mare charged them with the intent to kill. The three other fragments charged their horns and blasted magic at Anger. Anger skidded to a stop and heaved up her leg to block the attacks. When the Logic, Creativity, and Lust stopped firing (aware that they were getting nowhere) it left them open to Anger firing her own magic attack. Red, fire-like magic branched out to the mares, torching everything in its way. Logic stepped forth and formed a shield in front of her and the others. The red and green magics collided and fizzed about, trying to desperately counteract the other.
“Creativity, Lust, now!” Logic yelled.
The mentioned mares jumped out from behind the shield away from Anger’s magic, charging headfirst towards their enemy. Creativity’s magical enhanced wire flew about and once wrapped around Anger’s physical body and limbs. Lust’s horn ignited with magic as her power wrapped itself around Anger’s aura leg and held it in place. The two had the mare completely incapacitated. Anger cut off her spell in order to trash about and try to escape her entanglement.
“You’re not getting away my angry sister!” Creativity shouted.
“Is that a fact?!!” Anger replied, pulsating magic around her and making it very difficult for the other mares to hold her.
“Hold her for a few more seconds!” Logic yelled; her horn engulfed in a magical blast that would stop Anger for good.
“You’ll not hold me you stupid bitches!!” Anger’s eyes faded to complete red as uncontrolled magic sparked out and obliterated Creativity’s wire and dispelled Lust’s magical hold. Turning to Creativity, who she believed the greatest betrayer, Anger teleported in front of her sister and ready an attack. “DIE CREATIVITY!!”
Creativity’s horn flashed and a green flask appeared in a flash in her hoof. “Not today you crazy, psychotic bitch!” Creativity broke the flask on Anger’s face, some sick looking, mucus-like liquid cascaded out of it and onto Anger. The fragment screamed out in pain and fell back, her face sizzling as the liquid melted away flesh and bone. Creativity plopped her butt onto the ground and let out a huge sigh.
Logic and Lust ran up to Creativity. “What in the world was that?!” Logic questioned.
“Yeah, and where can I get some?”
Creativity and Logic’s heads made sharp turns as they looked at Lust with cocked eyebrows and expressions of disgust and confusion. Lust took a step back, becoming nervous and shifting her eyes back and forth. “W-What? I know a mare with an extreme pain fetish, she’d love that stuff.”
Creativity sniffed. “Right, moving on from that sickening mental image… that mucus stuff was Changeling venom, I got it when I was aboard after my little tango with Logic and the Elements.” Creativity’s eyes shifted downward. “You’ve no idea what I’ve had to do to get that stuff… let’s just say after much, much, much, much hindsight, I can say I may regret it.”
“Wow,” Logic stated mockingly. “There is something you actually regret?”
Creativity looked up. “Yeah, I know, it surprises me too! It’s crazy and…” A green shield wrapped around the mares and red collided with it and sparked about. Creativity stood up. “Really?! I just threw acid in her face! What does it take to stop this maniac!?”
Anger was standing a few meters away; her sporadic magic was sparking in every direction. Red magic was leaking from her magical aura leg onto her face, repairing the damage done by Creativity’s acid. Muscles, arteries, veins, skin, and the like were all forming and realigning to her face. The magic did its job and repaired her face more or less; there were still several bleeding scars left on her face that the magic simply could not, or would not, repair.
Creativity gagged. “Oh wow that’s sick…” Lust made a move to open her mouth but found it shut by Creativity’s magic. “Oh no,” The fragment growled. “If you even think of calling that sexy I will beat you senseless.” Lust whimpered and gave her sister puppy eyes. Confident she wouldn’t say another word; Creativity released her sister from her magical hold.
“So Logic, any ideas on how to stop Anger?” Lust asked; exercising her mouth to make sure Creativity had done no damage. “Nothing’s working. No matter what we do she keeps coming…” Lust chuckled at the word. “At us. Geez, it’s like trying to stop a wildfire, but worse because we aren’t all hot and sweaty and wearing tight firefighter clothes that suggestively open at just the right places to show our…” Yellow magic once again wrapped around Lust’s muzzle and Creativity shot her a look.
Logic paid no heed to them, she was having a revelation you see. “Like trying to put out a wildfire? A wildfire… That is it!” The mare almost jumped at the realization. Logic turned to the other two. “She is exactly like a fire, and like a fire the best way to stop her is by cutting off her fuel source.”
Lust hopped up and down. “Of course! So how do we cut off her fuel source? It’s not like she needs trees to keep going.”
Logic nodded. “True, she doesn’t need trees. But like all fires she needs oxygen.” Logic took several steps towards Anger, who had finally reoriented herself. The fragment saw Logic’s advance and wasted no time, charging at Logic with the intent of murdering her. Logic scoffed. “A fool, that is all you have ever been.” Logic charged her horn.
Anger yelled at the top of her lungs and lowered her head to impale Logic with her horn. Logic’s horn flared and she shot magic at Anger. The fragment could even react before she was encased in a green bubble shield. Anger’s eyes shifted around, looking at her new prison. “What?! The fuck is this?!”
“The final solution to our anger management problem dear sister.” Logic cringed suddenly, her unhealed wounds starting to take effect. “It is simple: we can not beat you in open combat. We will lose, no matter how hard we try. So, to counteract the unfortunate outcome of you killing one of us I have decided to simply suffocate you into unconsciousness. Once that is done I can easily capture you and end this madness. You are beaten Anger.”
Anger’s faced contorted into one of pure hatred towards her sister. “I don’t think so you stupid fucking bitch!” Anger’s eyes faded into pure red and the fragment’s horn flared with red electricity. Screaming painfully, Anger threw all her magic against Logic’s airtight shield. Logic flinched, the force of Anger’s power and her own injuries causing extreme pressure build up on her body.
Yellow magic suddenly joined Logic’s green, reinforcing the shield a great deal. Logic looked to her right; spotting Creativity next to her, horn flaring. Creativity laughed at Logic’s blank stare. “What?” She asked. “You think I’m gonna let you choke her yourself? Everybody knows you don’t have the nads to do it, so I’m here to provide support.”
“Did I hear something about nads?”
Logic turned to see Lust giving her own hot pink magic to the shield. The sex fragment smiled at her sister. “If there’s any kind of genitalia involved I want to be a part of this!”
“Ew…” Creativity countered.
“Thank you, both of you.” Logic said in a heartfelt manner.
“What else is family for other than helping to suffocate a crazed psychopath?” Lust asked.
“Not much…” Creativity replied.
Logic sighed. “Both of you are fools and I…”
The mares stepped back in pain as Anger continued to test the limits of her prison. The fragment was sending wave after wave of red energy outward in an attempt to break free. While this was helping her suffocation along, it was very hard for Logic (wounded as she was), Creativity, and Lust to hold her. The shield fizzed and pulsated, an indication that it was not far from falling.
“Damn, she doesn’t want to give up!” Lust cried out as she tried to hold her concentration.
“Just shut up and hold on!” Creativity lashed out.
Inside the shield Anger was breathing heavily, a loss of consciousness close at hand. Charging up a final, all-powerful blast, Anger planned to blow this shield out of existence. “It’s over!” The angry fragment cried out as she was seconds from releasing her magic.
“Quite right you are sister, you numb-nut cunt!”
Anger, Logic, Creativity, and Lust looked up to see a black and white magic mix with the shield just as Anger released her charged blast. The extra magic all but neutralized the waves power, protecting the shield from collapsing. With her oxygen gone, Anger wavered in the shield, her eyes trying to stay open. The world became fuzzy as her body used up the last bits of oxygen and could no longer sustain itself. “M-Morality…” Was the last thing Anger could get out before she fell on her side, unconscious.
Logic, Creativity, and Lust let out sighs of relief as they lifted their magic and dissipated the shield. Logic looked at the form of Anger, her chest moving up and down slightly as her body finally got the oxygen it desired. Confirming Anger out cold, Logic turned her attention to their savoir. The white and black-eyed fragment Morality was standing next to Celestia, her magic dying down. Once Logic nodded to Morality, the mare left Celestia’s side and walked to Logic.
“Hey Logic, long time no see.” She said casually. “How you doing you cum-sucking fucktard?”
Logic coughed. “I have been better. I thank you for your timely arrival. I thought you would stay out of the fight.”
Morality chuckled. “What? How could you think that Logic? I could not, in good conscience, let you face Anger alone. Yeah it was fun choking that bitch, just glad we parted ways before she became even more fucked up.”
Logic nodded. “Indeed, I thank you for saving Trixie. Still, we should not wait to capture Anger. I do not trust her to be knock out for long.” The two mares nodded at this and turned their attention to Anger.
Creativity was standing over Anger’s still form, scanning her. “Well, looks like your out for the count. Sorry sis, you became more of a liability than an asset, and I can’t have that. Now…” Creativity grabbed Anger’s non-severed leg and put a hoof on it, preparing to apply pressure. “Just in case you plan on waking up.” Creativity went up and smacked her hoof down on Anger’s leg, snapping more than one bone. Anger twitched.
Morality and Logic saw this and instantly ran up to Creativity. Logic flew her hoof to Creativity’s face and knocked her down. “What in the world are you doing?!”
Creativity spit out a little blood and looked at Logic. “Breaking her legs, what does it look like?!” Creativity got up off the ground and eyed Logic. “I’m doing the logical thing and making sure she can’t resist if she gets back up!” The two did not see Anger stir as they argued.
“ARE YOU MAD?!” Logic yelled. “That is an unnecessary act, she is defeated. Besides, breaking her legs will most likely wake her…”
Creativity was grabbed with red magic and flung towards Celestia. Logic turned to see Anger getting up, hellfire in her eyes. Logic took a step back. “Anger… please, wait!” Logic felt magic around her neck as Anger took hold of her and raised her into the air, lifting her at least seven feet high before slamming her back into the ground. Logic grunted as she hit the ground. The intelligence fragment’s pain didn’t stop there; Anger used her magic to jump high into the air and land right on Logic’s stomach, the mare spat out a fountain of blood. Anger took her real hoof and slammed it into Logic’s neck, raising her magical aura one up for a finishing blow. Morality and Lust ran to Logic’s assistance but Anger sent a wave of energy spiraling at them, knocking them back. Anger glared at Logic.
“Ready to die?” Anger asked. Logic couldn’t respond, a hoof shoved against her larynx.
“Logic!”
Anger and Logic turned their attention to the castle, where Spike, the Elements, Shining Armor, Duncan, and more than a few guards bolted out. All of the new arrivals stared in horror at the scene in front of them: Celestia knocked out, the other fragments knocked aside, and Anger about to murder Logic. Before the Elements could do anything, the guards took up defensive positions around the civilians, ready to combat this threat. One pegasus mare guard was frozen however, unable to believe what she was seeing. Steadfast bolted out from the castle and ran to Creativity, helping her up.
“You okay?” Steadfast asked his master.
“I’m fine.” Creativity growled. The creative fragment looked at the scene before her, then down to Celestia. The mare grinned evilly. “Come on Steadfast, it’s time for all the pieces to fall into place.”
Over yonder where said action was taking place; Shining Armor stepped forth from the defensive guard position. “Stand down Anger, I know all about what’s been going on with you and the fragments! Surrender, and submit yourself to the guard!”
“In your fucking dreams asshole!” Anger yelled. “I’m going to kill Logic, then move on to all of you! Enjoy watching this bitch have her throat ripped out!” Anger looked to Logic and lifted her aura claw for the attack. “DIE LOGIC!” Anger’s claw made its descent.
“ANGER NO!!!”
Anger’s claw stopped millimeters from Logic’s throat. Logic thought that had she drank any liquids beforehand she’d probably had pissed them all out. Logic’s eyes shifted from Anger’s leg to the fragment’s face. Anger’s face was one of complete surprise. The fragment didn’t know the voice that had just called out; she had no clue. So why had she just stopped? Anger’s head twisted towards the source of the voice. Her eyes fell upon the pegasus mare guard who had been frozen with bewilderment seconds ago. Anger was dumbfounded looking at the form before her clad in armor. It looked as if Anger was going to cry, looking at the mare’s dazzling white coat, her amazing blue mane and her hazel eyes. The scar up her chest, hidden slightly by her armor, was of great interest.
Anger hopped off of Logic and began taking baby steps towards the mare. “M-Mute?”
The mare smiled. “Yeah, hey Anger.” Anger and Mute were inches away from each other. Anger trembled as she looked at her lover, unsure of what to say. Mute smiled. “What? No hug for your marefriend?” Mute sort of regretted those words as Anger embraced her, a strong hug that almost choked the poor thing.
Anger didn’t even notice the tears in her eyes. “I-I, I love you… so much.”
Mute hugged Anger back affectionately. “I know, me too.”
Shining Armor took a few steps towards the hugging mares. “Private Indigo Breeze, what’s going on?”
Mute broke off her hug and looked at Mute. “Indigo Breeze? That’s your name?”
Indigo nodded. “Yeah, that’s my name… I, I don’t even know why I decided against telling it to you in some way. I guess, I guess I wanted to be whatever you wanted to me to be.”
Mute smiled at her marefriend. “Shit, Mute, I don’t give a fuck. I love you no matter what your name is.” The two embraced again.
Lust sniffed. “That’s so beautiful…” The mare looked down and covered her eyes with her leg to hide her tears. “So fucking beautiful!”
Morality looked at her sister with a cocked eyebrow. “Since when do you care about true love?”
Lust tried to hit Morality, but it didn’t work. “Shut the fuck up! I might be a pony who likes to fuck anything that breathes, but even I know true love is something to be cherished… NO MATTER WHAT!!!”
Morality sniffed, holding back a tear. “Wow Lust, I, I… that’s really unexpected of you. Yeah… Dafuq’s our favorite cock riding, pussy scissoring mare we love so much?” Morality coughed. “Well, love might be a strong word…”
Captain Armor and his guards stood dumbfounded at this particular turn of events, which easily allowed the Elements and Spike to sneak past them and get to Logic. “Are you ok?” Fluttershy asked as she knelt down to examine Logic, her kind nature taking over instinctively.
“Yes, I am fine.” Logic replied. “A little bruised and battered but, all in all, I am not dead so it is a good day.”
“Good, we couldn’t bear to lose you Logic.” Rarity smiled.
“Geez, look at this place!” Spike commented, looking around in the destroyed garden. “The fight you girls had must have been insane!”
“Meh, I’ve seen crazier.” Pinkie Pie admitted.
“Need some help, you bitch.”
The four ponies, and one dragon, looked to Morality and Lust extending their hooves out to assist their fallen comrade. Logic nodded and grasped on to Morality’s hoof, she had no idea where Lust’s had been so she decided against touching it. Finally getting on her hooves, Logic turned to Shining Armor and his guards. Logic walked up to them; well it was more of a limp. Shining turned when he saw the fragment approaching. “Captain Armor, I am Logic, though I believe you already know that.” Shining Armor nodded at the fragment’s assumption. “Good, I am glad the others were able to explain our situation so well. I would hate for there to be anymore misinterpretations.”
Shining Armor nodded. “Yes well I was a little skeptical when my sister’s friends came up to me and told me my sister had been fractured into thirty-five different fragments and one was trying to kill the Princess. That’s probably why we were a little late.”
“It matters not, we are victorious.” Logic stated. “I will capture Anger and Creativity and we will be one step closer to ending this madness.”
Spike looked around, noting the present fragments. “Hey, where is Creativity?”
Logic’s eyes widened as she realized she had lost track of Creativity. Swinging her whole body around, the mare tried to locate her sister. Logic became frightful as her eyes found Creativity, over by Celestia. “Creativity! What are you doing?!”
Creativity’s head cocked up and she turned to look at Logic. “Simple Logic, getting what I want.” The fragment grinned evilly.
Logic cocked an eyebrow in confusion. “What do you mean, “What you want”? You and I want the same thing, to rebuild Twilight.”
Creativity laughed. “You’re right, I did want that, once. In fact, I wanted it so much, I pulled so many strings to see it happen!” Logic and the others didn’t understand what she meant. Creativity rolled her eyes, getting up and walking behind Celestia’s fallen form. “You don’t get, do you?! Of course you don’t, that’s the way I wanted it! Honestly Logic, did you think everything that’s happened has been chance, that it’s all just happened this way?!” The Elements and guards stared blankly in confusion, but Logic’s eyes widened. “That’s right, you’re getting it! Did you honestly think Anger, frenzied as she was, could find the library so quickly when we were first born? Did you think Deceit just came up with the plan to trick the Cutie Mark Crusaders into the Everfree forest? A plan, I’ll add, that led you to yet more fragments?! Did you think I didn’t kill Applejack for the reason of just because I couldn’t?! Logic, I could have easily sent something to do it for me.”
Logic hung her head, teeth clenched and trembling in frustration. “Dammit…” She uttered.
Creativity laughed. “You’ve got it, I am impressed Logic. Yes, it was me! I’m the catalyst to all of what’s happened! I guided Anger, first to you then to Trixie. I gave Deceit her plan and I purposely left Applejack alone, after all, a broken spirit is much worse than a broken body. I’m the one who faked all those attacks in Manehatten so you would find Lust there. Slowly and steadily, I’ve been pushing the fragments to you Logic, one by one, so that you could catch them. At first, it was to rebuild Twilight quicker, so I could take control of her. But as time went on, I discovered something of great interest, thanks to Steadfast here.” Creativity motioned to the stallion. Over on Logic’s side, Shining Armor clenched his teeth, knowing all to well that the guard had been betrayed. Creativity decided to continue. “Yes, I realized something: I have limitations. No matter how hard I try I’ll have limitations, and that pisses me off Logic, it really does. But then I figured it out. You see Logic, who doesn’t have limitations: Gods.”
Logic took a step forward. “Creativity, no! Even you could not be so mad as to even think…”
“HA! Have you been paying attention Logic? Honestly, it’s like you don’t even know your own sister.” Creativity shook her head. “Well, how ‘bout we get this party started?!” Creativity pulled out a knife with her magic, levitating it to her leg. Slicing up a good cut, blood dripped from Creativity onto Celestia. Creativity turned the blade on Celestia and plunged it into Celestia’s flank, right in the middle of her solar cutie mark. Ripping the blade out Creativity grasped the red weapon in her mouth.
Shining Armor shook off his shock and turned to his guards. “Soldiers, stop her! NOW!” All of the guards rushed forth and attacked Creativity. The mare simply smiled as she uttered something under her breath and a circle with dozens of runic patterns formed under her, causing a shockwave that pushed back all the guards in a yellow light. The light expanded and completely shrouded Creativity from view in a column of pure yellow light.
“Looks like a huge yellow dick…” Lust observed.
“Really?” Morality asked, her face contorted into disappointment.
“What? It was just an observation… a very sexy one… I wonder in I could fit something that big in my…” Morality bitch-slapped Lust with her magic.
Rarity ran up to Logic’s side, the other Elements followed. “What do we do Logic?!”
Logic stared blankly at the tower of light. “I-I wish I knew…”
Inside the tower Creativity felt all the magic transferring in to her body. The all-powerful Alicorn magic shifted Creativity’s shape and formed emotions that were not there before. Once the transfer was complete the tower began to dissipate, magic disintegrating into the air. After only a few seconds, the tower was gone, and Creativity was much more different. Just as tall as Celestia, Creativity had reached Alicorn status. Her new wings stretched themselves as the newly christened god got used to her new body. The only thing that wasn’t Alicorn about Creativity’s new body was that her mane and tail were not waving with invisible winds of energy, they were still in Twilight’s style but whether this was the fragment’s doing or not was up for debate.
Creativity cracked her neck. “Aaaah… Now this is great! This is power! I can feel it! I am free! I don’t need the fragments! I don’t need Twilight!” Creativity’s eyes widened in realization. “I don’t need you, LOGIC!” Creativity’s Alicorn powered magic erupted from her horn towards Logic. No one else had any time to react as the magic hurled itself at Logic, looking for the killing blow. Red fire met yellow light as a fury of red magic hit Creativity’s magic and canceled it out. “The hell?!” Creativity yelled, annoyed.
Logic looked to her left as Anger stepped next to her, the anger fragment’s aura leg spiraling all about. “Anger… you, you saved me.”
Anger’s eyes shrunk into a glare. “Shut up. I’m here to protect Mute, err… Indigo Breeze. I’m well aware that Creativity’s got no ideas to let any of us live, so I’ll stand will you, if it means I can protect her.”
