//------------------------------// // Wyrm fall // Story: Derpy's Family reunion // by thewriter133 //------------------------------// The two days went by swiftly. Blackmane stood with The princesses backing him and Discord backing them. He had witnessed the birth of Shade who was a white and grey foal that was born from the night guard Chang’e and the day guard Houyi. The attack came swiftly and without warning. Numerous crystalline beings rose from the ground. An unfortunate guard had been eviscerated by the surprise attack. Blackmane began shouting orders “Remember when a crystal golem dies it blows up. Unicorns protect the pegasi and earth ponies.” A earth pony fell to the ground her body in two. Octavia opened fire from her gun-cello it ripped through many of the crystal golems. Bonbon was using her candy gun to break the magical mechanisms the golems were made from while Lyra and Vinyl shattered them with sound. An explosion annihilated the homes of the flower girls and the spa girls. The explosion had come from the wyrm. It made another pass ripping through the cake household. Pinkie was thrown by the blast of air. She now lay in a mangled mess with a wooden beam floating above her. A golden aura protected her as Derpy flew in to attack. Luna and Celestia screamed as the wyrm picked them up in his claws digging his talons into them he then dropped them they were caught by Eichenstrahl who put them under his arm and charged through the crystals that had come to finish them off. he dropped them near his log and charged through the crystals again to scoop up a lightning haired pegasus and blue unicorn who had both been cut pretty bad. He looked around and collapsed from his injuries. Several pegasi were thrown from the sky by the wyrm. Soon it was only Gilda, Rainbow Dash, and the Wonderbolts led by Spitfire. They were no match and Gilda soon crumpled as several crystals shredded her wings. Rainbow Dash charged with the Wonderbolts who fell as another barrage of crystals struck them. Rainbow looked around devastated and she flew right at the wyrm her rainboom gave her the boost she needed and she destroyed one of the Wyrm’s eyes. He swiped her out of the air and her bloody body hit the ground leaving a crater. Blackmane trotted over to the crater and pulled the wounded out only a tenth of his defenders remained. They were outnumbered. He watched Zecora fall followed by Granny Smith and Macintosh. Applesauce curled up near Big Mac and shook helplessly. There was a roar and He turned to see heavily armored bears join the fray with Fluttershy, in full armor, riding on one of them. They were backed by an Ursa Minor and an Ursa Major. Many crystal golems fell at their combined might. The ground then began to freeze and an ice pillar shot from the ground it cracked revealing several reindeer. The reindeer were led by an imposing buck who Blackmane recognized as the immortal Blizzard. They charged the remaining crystals and there was a roar in the sky as several dragons attacked the flying crystal golems known as the Crystal Wind. Twilight hurried over to Derpy who was mending Pinkie she yelled “Derpy we need your help. I want her to survive too but forget about her.” She stopped as Derpy stared murderously at her. She then spoke “Please Ditzy Doo she’ll be ok I promise.” Fluttershy was flung from the back of the bear she was riding and rolled into the broken and devastated Applejack. She saw the Cutie Mark Crusaders lying in a bloody heap with Rarity nudging the unresponsive Sweetie Bell. She got up and looked around all the injured and dead and what she saw enraged her. As Rarity walked over to curl up near Applejack Fluttershy saw flames and then...Nothing. ------------------------------------- Derpy saw the flames she saw Twilight run towards the charred ground that had once been where her friends stood. She dropped down and Derpy saw flames. There were so many dead but all Derpy could see were flames. through the haze hallucinogenic fire she saw a large stallion. She saw him fire up red magic and then she saw a very muscular reindeer who fired up white magic. Discord fired up grey magic and she hastily walked over to the three men she saw the magic was striking The wyrm and weakening him. Her rage built up and she fired off her magic. The golden beam engulfed the destroyer and his body slowly incinerated. In her mind she begged the sky, the sun, the moon, the stars, the trees, the wind, the elements that everyone would survive. Tears ran down her eyes as she remembered her friends and all those who had fallen. There was a piercing shriek that signaled the end of the destroyer.
