//------------------------------// // Step Out or Go Out // Story: Voids Of The Uchiha // by dereturd //------------------------------// “-or go out of my way!” I yelled, I swung my Gunbai once more except with great strength, creating a large tornado of wind as it flew towards the group. The ponies scattered and launched back, feminine shrieks resounded from the background. The cyan coated and rainbow-maned pegasus got back to her hooves and blasted to the air. She immediately flew inside the big tornado and flew while spinning around in the opposite direction, trying to stop the twister I did. Hmph, I weaved Tiger and inhaled a portion of the air, “Fire Style: Running Fire!” I thought, as I released the air in a form of blazing fire. The flame connected with the wind, as the tornado now turned into a large tornado of blaze. The pegasus inside the vortex spewed out of the fading tornado, her body was burning heavily but not too injuring. The tornado was gone, bits of flame was burning the grass. Goddamn, I just got back and these retards ruined the landscape. The lavender alicorn and the light pink unicorn got back up and released two beams of energy towards me. I lazily raised my Gunbai to block both attacks. The surface of my fan turned into a blinding silver light, The beam tried to penetrate through the weapon, but faded after seconds of blocking. “Wha-?!” “H-how?” Both ponies stuttered in shock. “Uchiha Reflection.” I muttered, before the Gunbai raised it’s brightness, returning both energy beams towards their faces. The projectiles hit both ponies, they weren’t dead but they were knocked unconcious. I thought of reasoning with the ponies since I’m not going to find out what the pink earth pony has in store for me. “Listen you maggots, leave me be and I’ll stop this nonsensical fighting.” I said loudly, catching the attention of those who were still breathing and watching. I waited for 10 seconds of silence before the orange earth pony started to gallop towards me. “Ah hear yer’ a dangerous feller’! We’ll stop ya here and now!” The western accent came, I scoffed. The earth pony spun her lasso, as I just put a hold on my previous Chakra Rod, hidden on my robe’s wrist. The lasso came through and caught me. “Ha!” The earth pony forced her forelegs to try and pull me over to her, but my weight gets the better of her. “Hmph, here I thought earth ponies were strong!” I taunted, I swung my Chakra Rod towards the rope, slicing it. The earth pony looked at me in disbelief, before I aimed my hand to her and launched the Chakra Rod. The Rod flew towards her freezing body, as the nullifying weapon hits flesh, except it wasn’t the earth pony’s flesh. It hit the white unicorn that shielded her from the attack. The Rod was square on the unicorn’s lower body, she dropped unconcious while her mouth dripped with blood. The orange cowpony saw her friend and tried to wake and heal her. I watched the idiot farmer pry the Rod out of her but I felt her magic weaken when the Rod absorbed her. I barely dodged the pink pony’s swing in the corner of my eye, I’m lucky the Sharingan bested her hyper speed. She threw her punches and kicks at me, I however, easily dodged them with my visual prowess. Her speed was still slow even with my Sharingan. “YOU HURT MY FRIENDS!” She cried, as she threw a punch beside where my face should be. “AND NOW YOU’LL PAY MEANIE!!” She exclaimed, her form stopped and prepared a strong buck. She did kick, but I couldn’t say how stong it was since I caught her hind legs with ease. “Hmph, pathetic.” I said, giving her a slow but strong kick to her flank as I leapt to the air and sped towards the pink earth pony while forming a kick. My foot impacted her body as she spat out blood, I body surfed on her and gave her the final blow. “Thanks for the ride.” I kickflipped her body as she went flying towards the rainbow-maned pegasus. I looked at the sight, the mane 7 lay injured before me, while I barely raised a finger on them. Wait.. six? Where’s Flutter- “THAT’S IT!” The butter mare roared, as she sped towards me and stopped before my face was two mere inches from her’s. “YOU DO NOT GET TO HURT MY FRIENDS LIKE THAT YOU MEAN MONSTER!” She exclaimed, as her eyes finally showed what’s mean. She gave me ‘The Stare’. “Aagh!” I faked a groan, as I pretended to crumple before her. “S-st-stop!” I cried. Heheh, maybe playing with her a bit could be fun, especially when I see her face. “That’s right! You say sorry or you’ll be sorry!” She said, intensifying her genjutsu. I continued to fake my downfall, I took it to the next level by using Kamui to fade into the ground. As this rate, I saw the ponies slowly recovering, while Twilight being the one watching. “You can do it Fluttershy!” She cheered. The butter pegasus smiled, before returning a frown at me. “Say you’re sorry!” She stated. “I-I-I’m s-s-sor—“ Then I faded completely into the ground. Fluttershy’s stare faded, as she panted and almost collapsed to the ground. She heard hoofsteps come behind her, feeling the alicorn’s warm hug around her. “You did it!” She cheered, giving her a smile. “I-I.. I did it?” She questioned. “Yes you did!” Starlight reassured, giving her pal a hug too. “We managed to defeat the ‘Vortex Monster’!” Twilight exclaimed. “It seems so..” A cold voice said from behind. The three’s expression turned that of fear, as they turned to find their enemy standing perfectly normal. I laughed mentally, seeing Fluttershy’s scared face of denial is kinda priceless. Eh, shitty jokes aside, I turned my gaze to the recovering group, hmph, weaklings. “Your genjutsu seemed a bit impressive for a pony, but that stare means nothing to my eyes!” I exclaimed, glaring at Fluttershy with my Sharingan. She stared back, but received the genjutsu I intended to give her. The pegasus quickly fell to the ground out cold. Starlight and Twilight looked at Fluttershy, each other, and back to me. “Now then, how about you two?” I said, both ponies embraced and tried to shield Fluttershy. Heh, friendship really is strong.. if your friends don’t backstab you. My Kamui started to spin, the vortext appearing in front of my eye. It started sucking stuff, but not strong enough to grab both Starlight and Twilight. ‘Come on.. where are you two?’ I thought. My Kamui still spun, while both ponies are still in fear, closed eyes, and hugging each other. ‘Anytime now..’ I give up, at least make them believe I’ll hurt them. I gathered some shurikens in my dimension, I’m just about this close to spewing out shurikens. I felt a small star about to go as- “ENOUGH!!” A heavenly voice exclaimed from above. I felt the energy surge, rise up very high. I slightly chuckle, finally.. The Royal Sisters are here. The ground crashed with two figures in the middle of the smoke. Hmph, their energy levels.. it never changed a bit. The smoke slowly fades, as the two alicorns reveal themselves. The tall white one with the rainbow mane was on the right, while the small night blue with the night sky on her mane was on the left. I smile under my mask, finally, an actual person I could interact with. “Twilight.” Celestia firmly said, her former student looked at her. “Get your friends and vacate the area, immediately.” Twilight nodded, I watched her and Starlight teleport the group away from us. The group appeared on a small hill, where they could see three specs back where they were at. Twilight turned back to her friends who were still recovering, although the one in the best condition is Rainbow Dash, who groaned and spoke first. “Wh-what happened?” “Did we beat.. it?” Applejack asked, still clinging to Rarity. Starlight quickly went to them to assist, teleporting the Chakra Rod away but felt her entire energy reserve fade out. “N-no.” Starlight replied with shivers, Twilight sensed her energy reserve and immediately went to her. Her horn glowed, sharing bits and bits of magic to her friend. “Then.. what happened?” Rainbow asked once more, trying to sit up only to grunt in pain. “Celestia and Luna came..” Twilight panted. “Sweet mother of-! We gatta go help ‘em!” Applejack tried standing, but just like her pal Rainbow Dash, she moaned in pain before collapsing back to the ground. “Judging from our conditions, we won’t be standing a chance towards that.. thing.” Twilight’s horn stopped working, as she sat on her haunches. “So we have to just sit back and hope for the best.” Huh, we haven’t moved for a while ever since the group teleported away. The entire time was just silence, while they both glared at me. They looked like they wanted to say something but stopped themselves from doing so. Guess I’ll break the silence first. “So..” I started. “It’s been a while huh? Good to see you both grow up quickly ‘Chell, and you too Lulu.” I said. “So it would appear that the barrier is broken, I’m going to guess that wanna go back in?” Celestia said, her glare still directed at me. “Come on, not even a ‘hi! how were you?’ or ‘sorry we trapped you in a prison for 3000 years’?” I then faced them with my own glare. “Don’t you think I won’t forget those agonizing 26 million hours of waiting, I counted.” “Obito, we’re sorry.” Luna replied, her frown turned into a sad one. “I wish we hadn’t come to it like that.” Celestia said, her sincere tone very visible. “But it happened, because there were some lines you all had to cross.” “Some lines I crossed?” I gritted my teeth under my mask, the grip on my Gunbai got harder. “Some lines I crossed?! I’m not the one who killed someone I very much cared about, because she was the only one who understood me!” “Well we’re not the one who came about attacking national allies and blamed us for it just because someone I cared died!” What the fuck did you retort? What the fuck did you say? “You take that ‘just because’ back! You never understood why you’re parents died you ungrateful teenagers!” I replied. “Why you little-!” “Sister, enough.” Luna spoke calmly. Celestia sighed. “I know. I just don’t want to repeat what happened back then, a lot of my ponies died under your doings.” She looked at me with that last sentence. “I’ve had enough of this reunion.” I said, weaving a handsign as the Royal Sisters when a cloud of smoke appeared beside me, revealing a clone of myself. “Take care of them,” The Sisters twitched a move. “I’ll be getting something first.” The vortex swirled in front of me, as Luna tried to interrupt me by flying to my vortex but was too late, I had already warped to my intended location. The Royal Sisters’ Restricted Vault. Clone’s POV “Sister, go after him!” Celestia ordered, her sister immediately followed by flying up. I easily jumped and grabbed her hind leg. “You have to go through me!” I said, throwing Luna towards her sister. Both alicorns crashed on the dirt as I prepared a jutsu. “Fire Style: Dragon Flame Jutsu !” I chanted, before three large bursts of fire that took the shape of dragons flew towards the Royal Sisters. I landed on the ground, still on my feet. The dragon flame was met with a heavy and angry stream of water coming from Celestia’s mouth. Hmph, Rampaging Water Technique. As I would’ve guessed, she finished with a tiresome face. I sensed her chakra level was low due to the amount of water she put in. “The use of that technique would drain your chakra.” I spoke, preparing another jutsu. “Fire Style: Hiding in Ash Jutsu!” I mentally said, exhaling to release a large load of ash and flame, covering the entire 30 meter radius. I hid by perching on a tree, I sensed to see where Celestia and Luna is. Celestia is still in front of me trying to probably sense where I am. Luna is trying to.. ah, goddamnit. “You’re not going anywhere!” I exclaimed towards Luna who faced where my voice was. I shot her a Chakra Rod, to which it was then blasted away by a water bullet. “Lightning Ball!” After doing handsigns, a barrage of small lightning orbs appeared around me. I aimed towards Luna as the barrage sped towards her. The ash started to fade, I knew Celestia had sight on me. I faced towards her and charged up Lightning Blade on my left hand. After gaining amount of chakra, I saw her charge up her chakra as well. At the same time, we both released out our jutsus. “Lightning Beast Running Jutsu: Twin!!” I mentally said, as I released two lightning fanged beasts from my Lightning Blade. “Wind Style: Immense Breakthrough!!” Celestia stated, releasing a thick gust of wind towards me. Both jutsu’s collided and ended with nothing else happening, leaving it to me as a draw. From the corner of my eye I saw Luna’s electrified body spazzing on the ground. When Celestia saw it, she gasped. ‘An opening!’ I thought, weaving handsigns once more. “Wood Style: Wood Dragon Jutsu!” I formed a ‘Ram’ handsign as a wooden dragon emerged from the ground just beside me. The dragon flew towards Celestia while it roared loudly, the Princess of the Sun saw this and prepared an energy beam, sensing how large it is.. it’s a medium. She released the yellow beam onto the dragon which did barely anything. The dragon continued still and roared as it bit Celestia’s back, then formed around her body to restrain her movement. Slowly, I felt her chakra absorb onto me, I felt her struggle but her breathing seemed a bit interrupted. ‘Now that she’s out of the way.’ I thought, turning to where Luna was but nopony laid sprawled on the ground. As if on cue, I heard the Rasengan form behind me along with a voice, “You should really pay more attention!” Luna’s speed was still slow since my Sharingan kicked in, I gripped my left and quickly charged a Chidori. Instantly, it blackened and turned into an Onyx Chidori. I turned to Luna to see her right hoof holding the Rasengan. She aimed it towards my face, luckily I managed to get my Onyx Chidori to clash with her in time. Both jutsus struggled to win against each other, and Chidori is just a destroyed version of the Rasengan. But I added some Six Paths portion to turn the table around. Slowly, I felt my Chidori move against Luna. She tightened her grip and pushed further, but to no luck I won our clash and pierced through the jutsu and placed the Chidori on her body. She blasted back from the level of power and hit the wall of the cliff. To my surprise, Luna dissipated in a puff of smoke. ‘Shadow Clone.’ I sighed. Original POV I walked across the empty hallway, filled with trophies, jewels, artifacts and items that seemed so rare and important. The hallway was just lit by the torches on the wall, so I already resorted to my Sharingan. I looked around a bit before finding a locked metal box labeled; ‘Science Misc.’ placed beside a trophy case. Man, whoever named that box quite retarded. Other labels here are at least designated. I opened the lid to see some random stuff, a bunch of prototype batteries, some burnt PCB board, I scrummaged through the mess until I found two small containers, filled with embalming fluid that’s preserving two eyes. The cell phone I had, and the small heavy black orb. Hmph, I placed the phone and the orb on my back pocket, while I strapped the two containers onto my waist. I turned tail only to meet with Luna. “Huh, guess my clone did a bad job huh?” I asked. “No, I did get struck by a barrage of lightning orbs.” She replied casually. “What are you doing here Luna?” I asked seriously, her smile replaced with a frown. “I’ll need that.” She looked at my eye containers. “No.” “Excuse me?” “Nope.” “Oh for Faust sake..” “Seriously, what do you wanna talk about?” I ask, this time being genuine. She just looked at me sternly, before breaking eye contact. I sighed silently, I teleported my helmet into my dimension and faced her with my true face and voice. “I’m here, Obito.” I said with my normal voice, or Obito’s voice. I gave her smirk, she looked at me back before smiling and pulling me into a hug. “Please don’t leave again..” She mumbled. “I can’t do that. I hurt your ponies, y’know.” She sighed. “Oh Twilight, pulling her friends into trouble just to save Equestria.” She released her hold on me. “I’m sorry if they caused you trouble.” “No, I’m the first to attack. They just defended themselves from harm’s way, so it’s me to be blamed.” I stated, yeah. That’s exactly what happened with what I can remember. She sighed again, I saw her tearing up a bit. Shit, that made me smile. “Well,” She breathed heavily. “you better get going.” “See ya.” I sunk into the ground with my Kamui. At that point she just watched. After I’m out of sight, I wore my Mask once more and teleported to my clone. I appeared beside the clone, who seemed to taunt Celestia struggling with the wood dragon. Well, it’s a playful thought. “Jesus, I thought you got stronger.” My clone said. Weirdly, Celestia slightly chuckled and stopped grunting. “Well, you got what you need?” She said, returning her expression to a slightly pissed one. The clone turned to me before scoffing and vanishing in a cloud of smoke. “Yeah, I’ll keep in touch. Thanks.” I replied with my Madara voice. I gained it’s memories, boy Celestia, you suck still. I mentally disabled my dragon, which then broke down into layers of wood and freed Celestia. She groaned in pain when she hit the grass with her flanks. I started to teleport away as the vortex started sucking me in. Going to my destined location. Celestia recovered, she saw that Obito was gone. She hummed, before standing back up and trotted towards the scroll he had left. She unrolled it when she took sight of it, a letter. She read silently all the details. It’s been a while ‘Chell. Hope you’ve prepared for my plans, I’m guessing you haven’t so haha, eat it ding dong! Anywho, I have some demands if you choose to leave me and my plans be: one, never send a squad to eliminate me. Or else you’d want heads to roll right? Two, never acknowledge anyone else of my presence, unless you want panic and destruction right? Three, leave me to handle the Elements of Harmony, trust me, nopony will get hurt. That’s all I demand really, be lucky that I didn’t ask for any resource request ‘cause that would be a hassle. Also, you and Luna look really cute when you’re pissed off. Anyway, see you around. If you want to piss me off that is. To Luna and Celestia, forever, Obito. Celestia sighed, she found it breathtaking to process what her pal wrote. “I have to think about this.”
