//------------------------------// // Ornstein wows the Equestrians // Story: Daimon and Ornstein in Equestria. // by Sindenovah //------------------------------// No POV After the “cake war” ended, everyone was satisfied both food wise and entertainment wise. Now though, it was time for answers. Predictably, Twilight was the first to start asking questions. She made a notepad appear before approaching Daimon and Ornstein. “Hi, if it's ok with you, I would like to ask you a few questions.” Twilight said with a hopeful smile, which expanded into a crazy smile when they nodded. “But first” Ornstein said as she nodded to Daimon, who used ingle to fire a fireball at the floating parchment, turning it into cinders instantly. Twilight shrieked before facing Daimon with a glare. “HEY! What was that for?!” she shrieked in anger as steam poured out of her eyes, but immediately was replaced by nervousness when Daimon and Ornstein leaned in closer. “We burned it because we prefer to not have our powers and personalities free for any villain or psychopath to get their hands on. I mean, what if a evil Changeling found out about it and was able to control one of us. You already know how hard it is to deal with one of us.” Ornstein said in a stern voice to which Daimon nodded his approval. Everyone in the room gasped at this information, and then thought more on it. They did have a point, and with all the trouble they caused already, why did they have the right to force them into something. They probably couldn’t if they tried anyway. Twilight wasn’t convinced though. “So, this is a historic event. It needs to be documented. And what are the chances someone will try to turn you against us anyway?” She asked frustrated, but was surprised at their answer. “Well what were the odds Trixie would find out about the Alicorn amulet?” He asked, which shut Twilight up immediately. She wanted to argue, but couldn’t. Trixie must have found out about that by hearing or reading it somewhere, and everyone knew how terrible that turned out. She was shocked though when Daimon put his large hand on her back and gave it a soft rub. This made Twilight’s mind go fuzzy at how surprisingly soft his hand was. When he took it away she looked up to see his smiling face before he spoke. “It’s alright. And hey, just because you can’t document it now, doesn’t mean you can’t later okay. We just aren’t comfortable with it yet is all.” He said with a smile. Twilight smiled back before nodding with an “Alright”. “Well then, let’s get this started. What questions do you guys have?” Ornstein asked, to which Applejack answered. “How did yall shoot that lightning mess from your spear like you did during our fight yesterday?” Applejack asked while eyeing Ornstein’s spear. Said gold knight simply nodded before answering. In her head though, she was grateful she researched Ornstein’s attacks and lore on Wikipedia. “It’s a power special to me and my armor. My golden armor is imbued with the power of lightning. My spear is as well but only I can use it to launch my lightning attacks. The one I used in that fight was my Heavy Lightning Spear. I have a similar lightning attack called Quick Lightning Spear. It is much like the first one but is much faster, and I can shoot it faster. I have multiple lightning attacks and spear combos, would you like to see them?” She asked, to which everyone nodded eagerly, especially Spike. Ornstein attacks:Only look at Ornstein’s attacks and Smough's Lightning form Banzai Drop. She smiled and told everyone to stand back. She then asked Luna if she could teleport in a training dummy. The Lunar Alicorn nodded with a smile and teleported a dummy the size of Big Mac into the room. Once it popped into the room, she charged her Heavy Lightning Spear and hurled it at the dummy, effectively shocking it and burning the cloth in the process. Everyone gasped at the attack, but were shocked when Ornstein asked for 3 more dummies. She then fired her Quick Lightning Spear and destroyed another dummy. She performed a Charging Spear and blew the next dummy into pieces. “This is one of my favorite attacks because of it’s area of effect, and with how funny it is. It’s called the Lightning Banzai Drop, but I just call it the butt-slam.” she said before motioning everyone to back up and then leaping into the air but she also started having lightning spark all over her body while she was in the air, which was strange. Then, pausing in mid-air, she crashes onto the ground in a sitting position. In the process, massive sparks of lightning shot out from under her. Everyone in the room was shocked at the power behind it, especially Daimon and Ornstein. They didn’t remember the butt-slam having such a large radius. Daimon then had an idea and walked over to his sister after she got up. “Hey sis, the lightning from that was a lot more like Smough’s then Ornstein's, don’t you think?” He asked, to which she nodded. She must have inherited one of Smough’s powers as well like how Daimon got Grand Ingle from Awakened Daimon. It was cool to know though, so she decided to let it slide and go back to her presentation. She decided to save one lightning attack for last though. After she got up, she looked at the ponies shocked faces and gave a “ta da”. Everyone then burst out laughing at the powerful but ridiculous looking attack. So next she moved on to Spear Combos. She performed many combos like (both large and small form) Swinging, Thrust, and Heavy Combos. She also showed them both form versions of the Jumping Attack, Charging Spear, and Evasive Swing. She now had only one attack left, and it was one she was looking forward to doing. The Lightning Impale. “Alright, this is my last attack. This one is called the Lightning Impale. I will need one more dummy for this one.” She said as Luna teleported another dummy into the room. Ornstein then walked up to it, charged her Dragonslayer’s spear with lightning, and thrust it into the much smaller dummy. She then lifted it into the air, all the ponies, zebra, and dragon watched in anticipation as the dummy was lifted while still impaled by the lightning charged spear. Then, to everyone’s shock, the dummy had thousands of massive gold yellow lightning bolts burst out of it. Everypony, dragon, and zebra watched in amazement, but were curious as to why the dummy didn’t explode. When the attack finished, Ornstein swiped her spear in the air and flung the dummy off it and made it crash into the wall behind the bewildered Equestrians. They all looked back from the dummy, to Ornstein, and gave her a vigorous applause. Ornstein chuckled and gave an actors bow before thanking them. Pinkie was the first pony to congratulate her. “Wowthatwasawesome,yourattacksweresofastandquickandlightyitwaslikealightshow,owonderwhythedummydidntexplodethough,doyouknowwhythedummydidn-mmmmmhhmhmhmhhhmhhh.” She kept saying even though Applejack had covered her mouth with a hoof. “Don’t dun mind her, she’s just excited. But she is right, how did your last attack not explode the dummy like the other ones?” She asked, to which everyone else looked to her for an answer. “I think it’s because its supposed to be a pain based attack, not really a killing one.” She said to which everyone looked a little unnerved at the news, except Daimon, Spike, Fluttershy, and Zecora. “Hey hey hey, don’t worry about it, i won’t ever have to use that attack much. Besides, you get to see this guys moves now.” She said while gesturing to Daimon whowalked forward. This time, Fluttershy and Celestia walked a little forward. “I am curious as well to see your attacks, while not having to dodge them.” Celestia said, to which Fluttershy just gave him a sweet smile. Daimon smiled back before grinning at everyone. “You have requested, so you shall receive.” he said, which made Rainbow fly up next to Fluttershy. “This is going to be sweet.” she said with a gleeful smile as Daimon got into a ready stance. He was about to show them some of the power of the Dark Arisen.
