//------------------------------// // The Real Monster // Story: The Final Chapter // by PenHeart3 //------------------------------// The room Derpy led me to was cold, and had a little light hanging from it. There were blueprints of some suits/toys that wasn’t made that ranged from the following ”Tirek“ A. Horns to admit fear into it’s enemies B. Arms to grab things (tightly) C. Can turn into a human without a suit ”Discord” A. Chaotic powers B. Can turn into a human without a suit ”Derpy” A. Crossed eyes can scan a pony (even in a human suit) B. Clumsy do to function A The sad part was, they were all stamped finished, and possessed. Next to those were used cigarettes, alcohol, and Tirek. “Did she bring you here?” He asked. Fear went straight inside me, I couldn’t move, so I said a nervous, “Yes...” He then took out two cigarettes, gave one to me, and took out a lighter to light it. “Why are you here?” I asked. “Pain,” he said, “fear, agony, all of it was too much.” It then I just noticed his eyes wasn’t blacked out, like Derpy’s “It’s only now I understand the death and the depravity of this creature, this monster that I unwillingly help to create.” He said, and let out a sigh. “As if what he has already done wasn’t enough, he found a new way to desecrate, to humiliate, to destroy. As if the suffering wasn’t enough, the lost of innocents, the lost of everything to so many people. Small souls trapped in prisons of my making, now set to new purpose, and used in ways I never thought imagined. He lured them all back, back to a familiar place, back with familiar tricks. He brought them all together. Are they still aware? I hope not. It keeps me awake at night. I couldn’t make myself ‘sleep’. But not yet. Not until I undo what he has done, and heal this wound. A wound that was first inflicted on me, but one that I let bleed out, to cause all of this. He set some kind of trap. I don't know what it was, but he led them there, again. He overpowered them, again. And robbed them of the only thing they had left, again. I don't know how those little breaths of life came to inhabit those machines, but they will never find rest now, not like this. I have to call them, all back. All of them, together, in one place...” Just after he said those words, a blast came from the door. They found us. Tirek was almost ready to charge, when all the sudden, Fluttershy, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, and Pinkie Pie all encircled him, and Twilight was preparing another magic blast. I tried to help, but Rarity was holding me back with a magic field. Twilight's magic was ready. She aimed at Tirek, and fired, only to hit another magical blast, caused by Tirek. The smoke emitted was heavy, and it took a while for it to disappear. And when it cleared, Tirek was gone, and I was hit in the back of the head, by a sleep spell.
