Unleash the Magic - Chapter 10 draft complete! · 5:04pm Feb 16th, 2016
Awaiting final preread before posting. Titled "Midnight Daydream", this is the climactic chapter in more ways than one, folks... you all wanted SunLight, you're going to get it. In spades. It's going to be the longest chapter of the story, and quite deservedly.
A teaser? Well... okay. But nothing suggestive. That's best saved for the full chapter so it can hit full force.
“Midnight,” I called to my counterpart calmly, breaking the silence of the short standoff between us. All eyes were upon us, but they didn’t matter. The only ones that did were on the face of the young goddess before me; the only equal I now had in either world. The only one who understood or could understand the burden I now carried…
And the only one I now had any eyes for. “Look around you. I know you can sense this. We can’t let this continue. The two worlds can’t take this, and even if they could, they’re not ready for this… any more than you were for this power.” I knew she probably wouldn’t take that well, but I still had to say it. “I don’t want to hurt you, Midnight. But I will stop you.” My horn glowed brightly as I charged my hands with power. I could seal the portals right then and there, but I did not—for I first needed to return our Equestrian guests to their world. “And I will do so by showing you a magic you do not yet possess.”
Midnight predictably reacted as a child being threatened with the loss of her favorite toy. “No, Daydream,” she hissed out my new game, gathering her power in response, her horn glowing in anticipation of a duel with me, one that would decide the fate of both worlds. “I don’t care about your so-called friendship—what did it ever do for me? Out of the two realms, I’ll make a new one—one with science and magic; one I can mold and I will be the master of!” she proclaimed.
“Knowledge beyond belief and power beyond measure! This is what have been searching for my entire life! It’s everything I’ve ever wanted! And now that I have it, I won’t let you stop me!” she shouted and suddenly charged a massive beam, firing it at me, forcing to counter with one of my own in defense. I was initially knocked back on my high boot heels—and just why the hell did my magic give me those?
Despite our equal power, I was at a disadvantage—I could say I didn’t want to hurt Midnight, or Twilight within her, but Midnight was not so restrained. She hit me with everything she had, and through her sheer willpower I felt my own magic being turned back on me, our battle beginning to fray things further as the uglier rifts began to open again.
Just as I was seriously considering cutting loose myself, movement to my left caught my eye, a small green-and-purple shape in the upper branches of a tree, now clinging to a thinning branch and trying to get further out even as his weight began to bow it down.
It was Spike! Through sheer determination, Twilight’s now-sentient pet dog had finally found a way in over the wall, climbing vines and branches in a feat he shouldn’t even have been capable of. And now he was climbing out on the further branch of a tree, trying desperately to reach her…
Even risking falling into a portal to do it. “Twilight! STOP!!!!” Spike cried out, tears streaming down his face as he saw what his master—no, his friend—had become. “This isn’t you! Please! No more!”
Midnight’s eyes shifted and her expression dropped; for just a moment her eyes and voice were again that of Twilight—not Midnight! “Sp-Spike?” she recognized him and her focus faltered, confusion suddenly on her face...
Remember: Your only inhuman if you don't feel anything reading this one
I remember when I met someone like this. You know what I did? I beat her 1337-speaking butt and took her gym badge. You don't know what I'm talking about? OK, then check this thing out... enter at your own peril.
Well, can't wait for sexiness. See ya.
3758516 I'll admit, I got a bit misty. It's a very touching moment between the two of them. This is a damn good story! I just wish I found it a bit hotter. Damn aversion to humanized...
I look forward to commenting on it!
