//------------------------------// // Awakened Fury Daimon vs Ponies and Ornstein // Story: Daimon and Ornstein in Equestria. // by Sindenovah //------------------------------// Play music for battle with Daimon No POV When Ornstein saw her brother change, she was scared and confused. If she remembered the awakened Daimon from the game, this one wasn't him. The Awakened Daimon in the game didn’t have bulky muscles like this one, and he seemed bigger too. He also didn’t have glowing purple eyes, he had orange one’s. She was worried but she also knew that if he was like either Daimon in the game, especially this one, he would have high magic defense and high defense to about, everything else except holy. She hoped her special lightning attack would be close to holy damage. She turned to Zecora before speaking. “I need you to get Fluttershy and Spike to cover, well take care of this.” Zecora, without any doubt, nodded and let Ornstein put Fluttershy and Spike on her back. The Zebra the galloped back to her hut. Ornstein smiled but then grew serious as she turned back around to face the floating nightmare in front of her. Said nightmare lifted his hand in the air as it started glowing orange with a swirling red mass in the middle. “Die” he said as he fired multiple fireballs at the princesses. Acting fast, Ornstein jumped in front of them and with swing of her spear, deflected the blasts safely into the sky. Daimon was shocked that Ornstein defended the ponies but paid it no mind. He wouldn’t harm her to much but he would move her out of the way. He lifted his left hand and it glowed a deep purple. Ornstein knew what this was and quickly turned to everyone behind her. “Everybody duck!” She shouted and dropped to a crouching position. Luckily they all listened and dropped down, except for Celestia, who was getting over the shock of her mistake, and Ornstein helping them. As everyone else ducked, a massive spectral clawed arm swung over and smacked Celestia into the air and into a few trees. Luna, Twilight, and Ornstein quickly got up. Ornstein then launched a bolt of lightning at the ground creating a temporary smoke screen. She turned around and explained her plan quickly. “Ok, I know you don’t trust me but you need to listen. I know how to stop him so let's just work together for now to change him back, ok?” she said in an annoyed tone. Twilight was still suspicious but since no one has seen this creature before, she gave an affirmative nod. Princess Luna gave a nod without hesitation. Ornstein smiled under her helmet and then turned back to Daimon as the dust cleared. Daimon gave a satisfies look to where Celestia landed before turning to the others. He gave a harsh look at Twilight before bringing his right hand and it glowed a light cyan blue with white in the middle. Everyone stood their ground until the ground below Twilight started to go cold. Ornstein noticed this and knew what it was. Without a second though, she jumped and pushed Twilight out of the way, but got hit by the massive ice pillar that jutted out of the ground in the process. She flew into the air and was about to crash until a purple aura caught her upper body and surprisingly enough, a golden aura caught her lower half. Ornstein looked over to see Celestia with her horn glowing and an aww struck look on her face. Ornstein was then turned upright and placed on the ground. The gold knight nodded a thanks to Celestia before getting into a fighting stance. The three alicorns got into a fighting stance as well. Daimon saw this and, since he had more muscle then he should, which he took note of, he got into a charging position and at once, both parties charged forward. Unknown to them, they were being watched. Over in a couple of bushes, the rest of the mane six (PInkie, Rainbow, Rarity, Applejack) were watching the fight unfold. They saw what Celestia did to Fluttershy and were shocked, but were terrified when they saw how angry Daimon got, and especially his change. Pinkie’s mane was deflated and she was shivering and clinging to a more white then usual Rarity who was clinging back and shaking as well. Applejack was wide eyed with her hat on the ground and Rainbow’s wings were drooping and she was trying to keep herself from screaming, even though she would never admit it. All 4 wanted to help at first, but when they saw what that ‘thing’ did to Celestia, they decided to wait this out. When they saw Ornstein jump in and then save Twilight, their hopes lifted. They then saw Celestia, Luna, Twilight, and the knight charge at the demon and almost got the courage to help, almost. Rainbow now looked ready to charge out and might have if she hadn’t seen what Daimon did next. Both sides clashed with each other and were all pushed back. Daimon recovered and used Grand Levin, which struck Twilight, stunning her and causing her to collapse. He then used Grand Comestion and caused 3 walls of flame to burst from the ground, one after the other (Grand Comestion is 3 High Comestion with one after the other). The first struck under Luna, who luckily sensed it and flew high into the air before she got hit. The second struck Ornstein, who wasn’t hurt by it, but ended up being tripped because of the shockwave. The third struck a few certain bushes and set them ablaze. Their were four screams of shock and fright as 4 mares came galloping out of them. They were Applejack, Rarity, Pinkie pie, and Rainbow Dash. When they ran out, they were immediately frozen when they saw they were right in Daimon’s sight’s. Daimon turned his attention to the new arrivals and raised his left hand, preparing for a sweeping claw, when he was struck in the face by a green fireball. The explosion caused him to repel himself backward, stunned. Everyone turned to see Spike with a bandaged tail, and Zecora with a bow and arrow, and other weapons behind her in a small cart. Spike was the first to speak. “Everyone who doesn't have magic, grab a weapon and help!” he shouted,and no sooner did Pinkie pull out her cannon, and Applejack pulled out her lasso, and Rainbow flew over and grabbed a sword. Celestia was wondering where these weapons came from but couldn’t argue with how beneficial it could be. She was brought out of her thoughts when Ornstein landed near her. “Can you enchant their weapons with light energy or something? he’s weaker to it.” She explained. It took Celestia a few minutes before nodding and shooting three yellow beams of magic at Pinkie’s cannon, Rainbow’s sword, and Applejack’s lasso, which is now being used as a whip. Celestia then noticed Zecora with a bow and arrow and shot a yellow beam at the bow as well, enchanting it with light damage. Twilight, Luna, and Rarity decided to use their magic, and Ornstein and Spike decided to use their lightning and fire. With all of that in mind, the ponies turned back to see Daimon had recovered from his stunned state and was charging up another fire spell. Everyone got their weapons ready and charged forward with a “YYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!” Zecora and Pinkie struck first with a cannon blast and a arrow to Daimon’s arms. The impact made Daimon turn his attention at them and cast Grand Ingle. Pinkie hid her cannon away and jumped into a bush, while Zecora leaped over the two fireballs sent in her direction. Rainbow charged in and hit Daimon’s wing with her sword. It made Daimon float backward and started gathering a purple fire in his mouth. He then let it loose and it shot out towards, well about everyone. Spike dove out of the way, along with Applejack. Twilight flew up and lifted Rarity up with her. The princess’s and Rainbow just flew out of harm’s way. Nobody knew where Pinkie was. Everyone regrouped but got nervous when Daimon started floating towards them. Celestia shot a magic beam that hit him in the face and actually caused him to falter. Ornstein then remembered Awakened Daimons weak spot. “Everyone, aim for the head in his belly!” She shouted. Everyone else nodded and focused their attacks on his middle head. This caused Daimon to let out a growl of pain and stumble back. He then got madder and charged forward with his dragon head chomping and chomping. Everyone darted to the sides dodging it. Ornstein and Spike then launched a Heavy Lightning Spear and a surprisingly large green fireball. Both attacks collided with his head and made him stutter again. He then flew forward a little bit and his eyes, mouth, and hands glowed fluorescent blue as he stretched his limbs again. Everyone backed away, and good thing too because Daimon then thrusted his hands downard and a massive swirling vortex formed under him. Everyone was starting to get pulled in, despite desperately trying to escape. Ornstein knew what to do here though. She crouched down and sprung forward. The sucking of the portal helped her reach her target faster, and with a mighty swing of her spear, she struck Daimon’s dragon head and upper chest, disorienting him and stopping his attack. Daimon then tucked his knees in and wrapped his arms and wings around them. Celestia and Luna took this chance to both fire their strongest magic attacks at him, along with Ornstein and Spike shooting their respective ranged attacks at him.  This caused Daimon to reopen himself and jerk around in the air. After a few seconds of jerking he collapsed on the ground, dazed. Everyone then attacked him at the same time. After a few minutes of nonstop attacking, Daimon rose back up and used a double handed Sweeping Claw to knock everyone back. He then casted Bolide and multiple meteors struck down around him. Rainbow, Zecora, Celestia, and somehow Pinkie were caught in the impact of a meteor. Twilight created a shield which protected Rarity and Applejack, while Luna made her own shield. Ornstein launched a Heavy Lightning Spear and destroyed her meteor, and Spike ducked behind a large boulder. Everyone recovered quickly, thanks to some healing spells, and prepared to continue the fight. Daimon casted Bolide again and also prepared a Sweeping Claw in his left hand. Celestia was prepared this time and destroyed 3 out of the 8 meteors coming down from the sky. The only person who couldn’t dodge in time was Princess Luna, who recovered quickly thanks to Twilight. Daimon then swung his left arm to the right and brought the spectral arm across the field. This caused Spike, Twilight, and Rainbow to get knocked into a couple of tree’s. Daimon then prepared another double handed Sweeping Claw and reared his arms back. Zecora easily rolled under the Spectral arms but Ornstein wasn’t so lucky and was sent flying back. Daimon then flew closer to everyone and charged up a Grand Ingle and sent fireballs flying in random directions in front of him. Ornstein struck again with her spear in his head and stunned him, before being knocked back by another Sweeping Claw. Daimon then charged up High Seism as his hands glowed green with yellow in the middle. He finished his attack and the earth began to violently shake. Then tons of rock and stone erupted from the ground and falling everywhere. It was like trying to get away from a mini Earthquake. “Everyone, dogpile this jerk!” Rainbow shouted. Luna, Rainbow, Applejack, and Zecora all jumped on Daimon and started hacking and slashing at him. Daimon then brought his arms to his face and his knees near his chest as his body began to glow orange. Ornstein knew what he was doing and shouted “He’s using immolation, get off of him!” She was to late though. Daimon finished his spell and sent all 3 pony’s and Zebra flying off of him. Their fur was burning a little bit but they were able to beat it out with ease. Daimon then started charging his fire breath again and everyone was getting ready to attack at the same time. Ornstein felt horrible fighting her own brother but couldn’t think of a way to knock him back into his senses. She almost gave up hope until a yellow blur latched itself onto Daimon’s face. Daimon was annoyed and looked at what it was but was surprised to see it was Fluttershy. He immediately stopped his fire attack and stared wide eyed. Fluttershy was hugging his dragon head, softly crying. When she looked up, Daimon saw her eye’s were full of sadness. “Please stop, i’m okay. You don’t need to fight anymore. Celestia didn’t mean to hurt me.” She said with caring sincerity. Daimon was confused but still full of anger. “How do I know they won’t do something like this again?” He asked with venom and anger. Fluttershy was shocked but kept her composure. “Because I trust them, you don’t have to, but I do. They won’t hurt me again, you may not trust them, but you can trust me.” She said with a smile. To the shock of everyone in the room, Daimon’s Dragon head smiled. Fluttershy smiled as well and was going to give him a hug until his face contorted in pain. Fluttershy backed away as Daimon floated higher and pulled his elbows back and his knees higher and backwards and let out a loud groan before crashing into the ground, LOUDLY. He laid their until his dragon head decayed away and his limbs shrunk. His original head regained it’s life and his eyes started glowing green again. He then quickly stood back up and looked around. He grabbed his head as a massive headache hit him. He then remembered everything that happened, including what his other form did. He looked at everyone in front of him with horror and backed away slowly. “What- what have I done?” He asked in horror as he backed away faster. All the ponies, including the princess’s, were shocked at how he reacted to almost killing them all. He didn’t act evil at all, he acted scared and horrified at what he did. They all started to feel bad for what he did. No one reacted until Spike, Ornstein, Zecora, and Fluttershy rushed over to comfort him. “It is alright my friend, you did not bring anyone’s life to end.” She said while rubbing his hand. Spike was hugging his other arm while Ornstein was hugging his side. Fluttershy was hugging his face and speaking softly. “You only did that because you saw me hurt. You didn’t do it for a bad reason. No one got terribly injured and me and Spike are fine.” She said while pointing to her perfectly okay wing. That actually brought a question to Daimon’s mind. “How did you and Spike heal so fast anyway?”  he asked as he looked down at Spike who was still hugging him and smiling up at him. Ornstein then nudged him before speaking. “I know how to make an Estus Flask.” she answered in a giddy voice. Daimon gasped and was about to ask how until she cut him of. “I don’t know, or care. I’m just glad I know how, and that they didn't burn them alive. I think it was a mixture of the adrenaline rush and magic.” She answered. Daimon smiled and turned to Zecora. “So you somehow had the ingredients to make one?” He asked. She nodded before answering. “All the ingredients I needed for this special brew, were as common here as an early morning dew.” She answered in a humble tone. Daimon nodded before crouching down and hugging the Zebra. “Thank you.” He said when he felt her hug back. He let go and gave her a grateful smile. This made Zecora feel much better but remembered some certain ponies still near him. “We should probably leave, we can explain everything once were gone.” Daimon said to the pegasus, dragon, and zebra. He looked to Ornstein for approval and got an affirmative nod. He then spread his wings and grabbed Ornstein by the arm and put Zecora on his head. Fluttershy put Spike on her back and prepared to leave until he heard clopping. He looked back to the ponies and saw them walking closer. “Wait, where are you going?” Asked Celestia in a worried tone. Daimon understood her caution but had no time for it. Twilight then spoke next. “You don’t have to be cautious of us, were sorry for attacking you earlier, but we were just worried for our friend.” she explained getting a nod from everyone else. Daimon smiled at their thoughtfulness but he and his sister still didn’t trust them enough yet. “We understand your caution, but forgive us for saying we still don’t trust you yet. I’m sorry for what I did to all of you, and I do owe you all for the trouble, but since you attacked first and since one of you hurt one of my friends, i can’t trust you yet. Maybe at a later date.” He said with a smile at the end. Ornstein joined in next. “Trust me when I say that we promise not to cause any trouble, but if trouble comes to us and you try to turn us into stone or seal us away, we won’t hesitate to defend ourselves.” She said, until Rainbow spoke up. “Yeah right, we can handle you chumps.” She said with confidence but was shut up by Twilight with a slap to the back of the head. Ornstein waved it of and continued. “It’s fine, she’s just stating her opinion. But let me ask you this.” she said, looking at rainbow. “If you all couldn’t completely beat my brother even WITH my help and i’m just as strong as he is like this, how will you beat him on your own if he turns into “That” again?” She asked. That made everyone think hard and came to the realization. If they couldn’t use the elements, or the elements didn’t work, they couldn’t. Everyone by Daimon, including him saw that and gave a satisfied smile. “Don’t worry though, if you don’t come at us hostile, you never have to worry about that.” Daimon said as he started hovering. Right before he and Fluttershy flew off Ornstein said one last thing. “And don't’ worry about your friends, we won’t keep them their long. Bye!” She shouted nicely as Daimon and Fluttershy flew over the tree’s and out of sight, but as they left the ground, Daimon gave them all, especially Celestia, a venomous glare before he went above the tree’s with Fluttershy and out of sight. The remaining ponies were still taking all the info and accepting the guilt of their mistakes. They were all silent until Pinkie walked in front of everyone with her mane deflated, and said what everyone was thinking. “We messed up big time.” she said with a sad face. Everyone nodded and began their trot back to Ponyville in silence. The one who felt the worst was Celestia, not just for how much she hurt Fluttershy, but for how she made Daimon feel. One thought went through her mind as she trotted back with everyone else. “I need to make it up to him.”
