Twilight Sparkle, called by many nowadays Princess Chaos, or simply Chaos, sought cover from Equestria’s big happy family. She wanted the end. She would bring the end. And Equestria, or Hevana, would be hers. Either would do. Nopony would care, everyone loves a change in government every now and then. Whether good or bad, they just want a good laugh. And she would make them laugh. Or cry. Both were pretty similar.
She was thankful for what her old friend Fluttershy had given her, the gift of being an Alicorn. She approved of the sexy, sleek form, and couldn’t even begin to wonder why Fluttershy wanted to rid herself of it. It was amazing. Maybe it was because Fluttershy knew Twilight would make a better Alicorn. Pfft, the pathetic pony. Couldn’t even survive the transformation blast.
She carried a small brown bag with her through the forest, inside, a writhing Rainbow Dash with a sore neck and a broken wing. It was going according to plan, of course. Twilight used a bit of black magic to revive the dead Rainbow Dash, and fuel hatred into the young Pegasus’ heart. She would then transform Rainbow Dash into an Alicorn as well, and then the others. Soon, she would have an elite squad of four Alicorns, who will abide by her will and destroy all who stand in her way.
At the edge of the EverFree Forest was a small cove, one which Twilight had begun brainstorming of whipping Spike inside on the way there. She was quite the twisted Alicorn, overcome by power. Too bad the small dragon was gone, most likely de-atomized in the explosion. Or thrown into the stratosphere. More pleasant thoughts from Twilight!
Twilight pranced into the cove, using her newfound powers to cover the entrance with leaves, and then proceed to burn a small rose, left in a pot by some pony who most likely had a fun time in here. The dim cave walls began to dance with orange flames, as the magic-fueled flaming rose burned eternally.
Twilight dumped her gagged luggage on the ground, and proceeded to lay the burlap sack on top of the burning rose, making even more flames dance in the corner of the cove. The small, pitiful form of the blue pegasus writhed in pain, attempting to grasp her neck through her bound hooves. Twilight smiled. This was going to be easier than she thought.
She clamped a long leather strap around Rainbow Dash, who was more like GrayBow Dash, considering the cave floor had made her colourful mane seem dull and gray, and used a bit of magic to let the ground swallow up the straps and tighten around Rainbow. Twilight then sat in the corner, and focused all her energy on the blue pegasus whimpering on the ground.
She imagined the blue pony stretching, to a magnificent size, not as tall as the Twilight Princess herself, but still larger than most Alicorn Republicans. She had to keep her elites towering over all the others, after all. Can’t have them looking wimpy, when their job is to erase Equestria of all Royal Blooded Alicorn folk. She smiled cruelly as the blue pegasus began whimpering louder, feeling her bones stretch, and her tendons pull.
Twilight and her Elites weren’t royal blooded Alicorns, hell, they weren’t even Alicorns! But they were the best of the best. And that’s all the Twilight Princess needed to take over Equestria. Hire 4 ponies to kill off any Royals? Easy enough, they’ll be cowering in their castle as soon as they discover who the Twilight Princess is. The deranged folks up in Canterlot won’t stand a chance against their army. Long live the Alicorn Republic, as they say.
The whimpering finally erupted into muffled screams, deranged and distorted, as the blue Pegasus began to grow her horn and take her final shape. Slowly, Twilight began to pump the feelings of hatred towards Equestria into her, just as Discord did, a year ago. Twilight smiled, ‘Discord will be here soon enough.’
The leather bindings on the young Blue Elite loosened, as Rainbow’s form began to shrink and become extremely aerodynamic. Rainbow Dash would be the Aerial Attack Force, the one to bomb any opposition with incredible force, speed, and strength. Rainbow’s beautiful pink eyes slowly dyed themselves a deep red, and her mane ignited with great contrast, almost turning into a bright rainbow fire blazing from her head.
‘Rise, Rainbow Pyre.’ Twilight bellowed, as slowly the bindings around Rainbow’s hooves and mouth broke, under Twilight’s magical suppression. She gave a wicked smile, and chuckled as her obedient Elite Slave rose from the cave ground, her flowing multi colored mane painting the walls of the cave bright colors. Rainbow’s eyes almost poured hatred, but not hatred for her master. She would be good to her master. She would make Master happy.
Rainbow Pyre stood majestically, waiting for an order from her master. She would do anything and everything she could for her master, and she would do it gruesomely. The thought let a smile creep across her face. Gruesomely, what a sadistic word. She liked it.
Rainbow Pyre rejected her past self as an ‘Imperfection.’. She was now perfect in every way, an Alicorn. She would help the Alicorn Republic in any way she could. Although her name should still be Rainbow Dash, she will call herself by her master’s wishes.
“Pyre, find Rarity. Kill her and bring her to me.” The Twilight Princess ordered at her Elite. Rainbow darted through the leaves blocking the cave, faster than any Alicorn or Pony could’ve before. She was about to get her next Elite, and that would be all she needed to take down the Cadenza family. The Twilight Princess gave off another wicked smile.
Fluttershy read the small piece of paper. Why the hoof was it called “Book 218” if it was just a small paragraph on a piece of parchment? She didn’t care. She cared more about the fact that it was indeed true, and Twilight, her best friend, was going to bring back the Alicorn Republic, and destroy Equestria. She also cared about the fact Twilight had killed her best friend Rainbow, who may or may not have survived the encounter.
“So you say Twilight killed Rainbow?” Celestia asked, peering over Fluttershy’s shoulder as they sat on Celestia’s bed. The fiery sheets slowly writhed, as if they were true flames.
“Yes.” Fluttershy simply responded, distracted in her thoughts.
“And you saw the rise of Hevana, in a dream you had while in the castle?” Celestia asked again, hoping to milk the young Alicorn of any and all information on this threat to Equestria.
“Yes.”
Celestia rose from the bed, and left the room. Fluttershy was being given some time to ponder her thoughts, while the Royal Family raised security in every corner of Equestria. This was a Level 5 Threat, whatever that meant. The only reason Fluttershy knew of its existence was from Luna muttering it under her breath as she broke through the windows of Celestia’s outer Dorm.
The air was so tense in Equestria you could cut it with a knife. Ponies were being kept in their towns, blockades were being set up around Canterlot, and most ponies were being tracked by at least 1 Royal Guard. Equestria’s Finest had always prepared for this moment, doing constant drills and exercises preparing for a threatening Alicorn Uprising, but when it actually came, nopony was really ready.
They scrambled left and right, searching for extra supplies to make their barricades, while the citizens watched. Most were confused, some were startled, and some panicked. But there was one Mare who was startled the most. She had heard that not one, two, but three of her friends, had died the other day. And when the alerts went out, Rarity couldn’t help but wonder if she was next.
She had heard from Applejack about Fluttershy’s tumor, and had gone over to her house to see if there was anything she could do to help. But Fluttershy wasn’t there when she arrived, instead, Fluttershy was out in Canterlot. And when the town exploded, Applejack came to gather up Rarity, Pinkie, Rainbow, and Twilight, but she could only find Rarity and Pinkie. The three ponies went up to Canterlot, to take refuge in a small apartment building.
The room they had bought was colorful, with a bright blue floor, and Fluttershy-Yellow walls. There was a golden trim around the bottom of the walls, giving off a faint gold glow to anything inside. It was the most luxurious apartment in Equestria, and they got it for free, for knowing the Royal Family personally.
Rarity paced on the bright blue floor, Pinkie was making cupcakes from a stove shoved in the corner of the room, and Applejack was rooting through her bag of stuff she brought. Since Ponyville was basically destroyed, the three didn’t have much to bring with them, Rarity bringing the most, as one of her closets of her newest fashion line was spared from the raining boulders.
Applejack was still in contact with Big Mac, Granny Smith, and AppleBloom, who had come along to Canterlot, and were staying in the same apartment. Sweetie Bell was also with the Apple family, and Scootaloo somehow managed to find her way into the apartment with them.
Rarity finally stopped pacing and trotted over to her bag of stuff, pulling out three canisters.
“Rarity, what in god’s name are those?” AppleJack asked, getting up from the floor and trotting over to Rarity.
“Experiments. I don’t always spend my life making clothes, you see. These are prototypes, but they work. They’re canned Sleeping Bags. Quite simple, really.” Rarity said, throwing the canisters up into the air.
As the first canister hit the ground, a magnificent, fuzzy sleeping bag exploded out with a small ding, unfurling perfectly, and then the corner opening up just slightly, so a pony could tell which way was up. A small inflatable pillow then rained on top of it, right by the furled corner. The other two canisters repeated the exact same process, just with differentiating colors.
Rarity gave a small grunt of triumph, walking over to the purple sleeping bag on the ground. Pinkie pulled out her cupcakes and shoved them all down her throat, before hopping over to her sleeping bag and crawling in, head first. Rarity sighed at the scene. ‘There’s no use, Pinkie probably doesn’t use a pillow at home anyways.’
Applejack snuggled under her green sleeping bag, and then slowly drifted off into dreamland. She dreamt of a mountain, surrounded by a valley, covered in fog. Luscious green foliage covered the sides of the valley, with huge trees sticking off the tops of the other mountains. Behind her, a small Filly Cello Player played a solemn tune, accompanied by a small Lyre Player. Applejack smiled in her deep sleep. It was truly a tranquil scene. Not like the real world. Not at all.
Applejack woke in the early morning, to the sounds of birds chirping, and sunlight beaming on her face. It didn’t startle her at first, the sun and birds, what startled her was Pinkie’s face. The normally happy and ecstatic pony was now staring blank faced at a wall. And that was when it hit Applejack. The apartment had no windows. Applejack slowly rose and turned to see what Pinkie was staring at.
A slight breeze emanated from the gaping hole in the apartment wall, where birds continued to chirp and sunlight beamed ever onwards. And Rarity was nowhere to be found.
Rarity tried to scream, but her scream was muffled by the gag that was shoved in her mouth. It felt like the Young Fliers Competition all over, being held thousands of feet above the ground, being carried by bright blue hooves. But these weren’t Rainbow Dash, it couldn’t be her.
Rarity was being carried by a large, blue Alicorn, whose rainbow mane rippled in the wind. They were going very fast, so fast Rarity had to close her eyes to keep the wind from hurting them. She couldn’t get many other aspects of her kidnapper, except the fact her large wings could go very, very fast.
Rarity felt the speed gain as they flew. She began to feel pressure against her skin, as her kidnapper continued to rise in speed. She could no longer hold her head up, and her neck cracked a few times as it dangled in the speeding wind. She opened one of her eyes to see her kidnapper, and saw the wicked grin on her face.
BOOM, The Rainbow Alicorn let off a sonic rainboom, shattering many bones in Rarity’s body. She let go of Rarity, letting her fall. Rainbow stopped and watched, as Rarity attempted to scream through the gag. 20 seconds later, there was a small cloud of dust, as Rarity hit the ground, bouncing off of rocks on the way.
Rainbow flew down and picked up the limp Unicorn, who was dangling in awkward positions, from all the broken bones and limbs. Rainbow smiled. Master would be pleased, Master WILL be pleased. Her Earth Elite was here, and ready to kill. She just needed a bit of... Alteration.
“Ah, Pyre, you are here. Do you have Rarity?” The Twilight Princess asked, who was meditating in a corner of the cave when Rainbow waltzed in. Rainbow dropped the limp body on the ground, letting Twilight do the rest. Twilight’s horn glowed, and she nudged Rainbow to do the same, getting a puzzled look in return. “Imagine her as an Alicorn, Rainbow. Let your magic do the rest.”
The two Alicorns slowly brought Rarity to life, getting whimpers of pain from the small Unicorn. They had not bothered to fix the bones, making it easy. No need to bind what cannot move. Slowly, Rarity began to whimper louder and louder, just as Rainbow did. Wings sprouted from her sides, and her bones stretched. Her purple hair began to flow, emanating deep purple flames.
When the process was done, Rarity stood. Her bones were fixed as they grew, giving her more tolerance and strength. Her sleek white fur matched greatly to her tall Alicorn form, just as sleek and aerodynamic as the others. Her wings were smaller, yet her horn as large as Twilight’s. The Twilight Princess nodded in satisfaction, as Rarity’s eyes began to dye themselves a deep dark red.
“This will do. Go, kill the Cadenza Family.”
Cadence, Liberta, and Lues were in their home, on the outskirts of Canterlot. It was a grand pastel pink mansion, almost a smaller replica of the Canterlot Castle. The Cadenza Mansion was filled with Royal Guards, and being watched profusely by the two Elites.
“Right there, that guard.” Pyre ordered, as Rarity focused her magic. They had practised the technique on many other guards, who were wandering through the forest. The guard began to feel sick, as he slowly fell to the ground. Three other guards came to help him, while five guards took their place and kept watch. That made Rarity smile.
The sick guard began to morph, his limbs growing at random rates, and his wings shrinking back into his body. He was the first of the Elite Army. His wings bursted out his sides, as a small horn formed on his face. His eyes then dyed themselves a deep purple, and his fur as dark as night.
The guards around him gave each other startled looks, and before they could react, the three guards had their necks snapped. The Elite Officer bounded around the outside of the house, using teleportation magic and continuing to snap the Royal Guard’s necks.
“Now, Elites.” Pyre ordered, as twenty elite officers flew above them and dove in onto the house. The Cadenza family most likely hadn’t heard the ruckus outside, as there was nothing to hear. They probably thought they were snapping a few sticks, in boredom.
Slowly, the ground began to be littered with dead Royal Guard bodies. These bodies were slowly added to the collection, Pyre and Rarity both using their magic to transform the Pegasi into small Alicorns.
Slowly the army began to clump around the door, in a V formation. Rainbow and Rarity emerged from their hiding spot, and flew up to the door. Pyre blasted down the door with a bolt of rainbow magic, and Rarity began to spray beams of magic at the Royal Guards on the inside. The Elites rushed into the home, quickly and swiftly killing all opposition. Cadence and Liberta stood above the living room, on a small balcony, attempting to help their Royal Guards from the attackers.
Cadence tried to spread love into the Elite hearts, but the hearts rejected this action and instead, began to fill Cadence with hate. Liberta was shooting beams of magic directly at Pyre and Rarity, who simply shrugged the magic off of their shoulders. It was a warzone, beneath the balcony, hundreds of Royal Guards versus thirty Elites. And the Elites were winning, with not a single casualty.
Rarity focused her magic, as she pointed her horn towards Liberta and Cadence, then released a large amount of magic, creating a purple explosion that obliterated the roof and side of the mansion. Liberta and Cadence fell into the warzone, where they were swiftly killed with no deviation from the Elites.
Lues hid in the cellar, hearing the screaming and shouting from upstairs. All of the Royal Guards were now killed, along with his daughter and wife. He silently let out a few tears, as began to focus his magic. He focused all of it on one thought; Explosion.
Rarity and Pyre began ransacking the mansion, while the Elites took the casualties of the small confrontation and burnt them in a bonfire outside the front door. The Elite Alicorns would not let Lues escape, and they knew he was still in the home somewhere. Cadence and Liberta were taken and stored off to the side, for the Twilight Princess to get hold of some time later.
Lues was holding in so much magic that his horn was giving off a loud, high pitched frequency. He was getting ready to release it, even though he wouldn’t be able to see what it looked like after. If the release of energy didn’t kill him, the explosion would. And he would not let the Alicorn Republic get hold of his body. He didn’t want to endanger their world any more.
Pyre began to hear a loud high frequency, as did Rarity. They both grimaced as they heard it, then began to find where it was coming from. In the middle of the war torn room was a carpet, with the symbol of Equestria on it. Pyre blew a bit of rainbow fire on it, and the carpet quickly burned. Underneath was a trap door, most likely to a cellar. The two Elites grinned.
They fumbled with the door, before deciding to just blow the thing apart. The focused their magic, as the high frequency grew louder and louder. The two Alicorns nodded, and before they could release their magic to open the door, an explosion completely decimated a 2 mile radius, larger than what had happened to Ponyville. Everything inside was flung outwards. Wood burned, ponies burned, Lues burned.
But Pyre and Rarity did not.
