Oh, you thought Magic was beyond me?

Chapter Four: The Human imitates a Horror movie

"Alright... This should be it"

Amadeus let the Dragoness in his hands slowly drift down until she landed on the floor before releasing her from his grasp.

Wolfgang and the Dragoness had moved to what Amadeus remembered as the Reception area. Then again it has bee a couple thousand years. Has it perhaps been re-purposed by now?

Whilst the Dragoness was slumped against the wall in front of the counter, Wolfgang was behind it randomly pressing bricks. If Amadeus remembered right, there was some sort of Storage area around here which revealed itself upon the press of a button or in this case brick.

After a few more tries one of the bricks finally pulled back before it and a few others were pushed down. A Safe like box had been revealed by the removal of the offending bricks.

Usually safes would take a long time to brake into, however this one had been left here for around three thousand years without use nor care. The metal used for the Safe has at this point been weakened to the point of a mere touch being capable of bringing the entire box crumbling to dust.

That is the reason why when Wolfgang touched the safe it dissolved into dust leaving behind his personal belongings, or rather whatever remained.

"Oh god damn it!"

As he took out he discovered that only the plastic cards in his wallet, his phone, headphones and a pair of stereo-typically American sunglasses he had bought for five Euros from the ass end of no where had withered the flow of time.

All that remains of his previous cloth were piles of dust now.

Grimacing he mumbled "Levitation" and grabbed his surviving items with his magic, pulling them out of the hole in the wall. Just in time too , for moments after they had exited their home for the last three thousand years the hole collapsed in on itself

Cringing at the damage he had done he put his items on the rock counter before releasing them from his magic.

Just as he was about to limp towards the counter his decommissioned leg suddenly started spasming again causing great pain to Wolfgang.

Like last time it stopped only a few moments after it had started, however unlike last time instead of a spaghetti leg he regained full control over it.

Astonished he lifted his right leg and carefully tested to see if a certain motion would cause him pain. Thankfully nothing happened and he was able to move his leg unmolested

"I'm not a doctor in medicine, but I'm pretty sure that's not supposed to work like that..." mumbled Wolfgang to himself

Shaking his head while warily watching his leg he stood up and dusted himself off. Finally having recovered enough to stand up he looked towards his phone, grabbed it and pressed the ON button. A few seconds of nothingness later the phone manufacturer's logo flashed for a bit before the phone asked him for his Sim pin.

A few tips later it asked for his fingerprint which he gladly tried to provide. However due to the fact his fingers were covered by Magical-Voodoo-Mummy-Rags whose purpose will remain unknown to Wolfgang for years to come blocked them. And so he settled for tipping in his password.

So he found out that he only had Thirty-seven Pro-cent of Juice in his phone. Immediately his Eyebrows climbed his forehead in surprise. His phone could barley last a day or two without charging, much less thousands of years. Was some sort of Magic protecting his phone? Wisely deciding to conserve his phone power he turned it off before looking at the rest of his items.

He could use his head phones to strangle someone whilst the cards could be used as makeshift ninja stars if one were to sharpen them-

"Wait... Why am I thinking of combat usages for my stuff?"

Disappointed in himself for trying to imitate a Rambo-like mindset, he turned around, whilst grabbing the Dragoness and his stuff in his staff's white aurora, and walked out of the doorway opposite of the one they came in.

However the moment he exited he immediately dropped himself and prayed to god that no one saw him, as it appears Wolfgang had found the main entrance hall.

Which also doubled as the Slaving Ponies Camp.

Wolfgang chanced a glance at the catwalks below him and saw two Unicorns, one Green colored the other colored in a shade of red Amadeus didn't even knew existed, who patrolled them whilst looking down.

Thankfully no one seems to be looking at the third floor, or at least Wolfgang thinks he is on the third floor. It could easily be the fourth or fifth floor and since he could barely stand at his full height in some corridors he couldn't exactly use Metric measurements.

Carefully his eyes again peaked over the edge of the platform but this time focusing not on the Unicorns on the Catwalks but on the Camp itself.

There seems to be a lot of activity down below. And if Wolfgang had to guess he and his Dragoness companion were the cause of it.

Whilst Wolfgang was trying to count how many ponies were down there his eyes stumbled apon the South-Eastern wall and he saw something which made him quietly growl in rage and disgust.

Almost Two dozen cages lined the wall filled with what Wolfgang assumed, correctly, were ponies.

While intellectually Amadeus knew they were Slavers the Cuteness had diminished his normal reaction and their relative inability to beat him in combat also made him diminish their threat level even more in his mind.

However now he had nothing but boiling hot rage and disgust for the Slavers. No matter how cute they were, he would beat them until they turned into red pasta. Assuming of course their blood was even red.

Wolfgang crawled back into the room and out of sight before using his levitation magic and testing something.

"Woah!"

Wolfgang wobbled a bit as the Staffs white aurora engulfed him and lifted him from the ground. He grinned like a madman before using said Staff's magic to collapse one of the two Doorways leading into the room and left the the Dragoness and most of his items there.

He took the Sunglasses and quickly cleared most of the dust from them before wearing them.

As he floated out into the Main entrance Hall he cracked his knuckles and then laughed as he jumped ontop of one of the Unicorns patrolling the catwalks.


"Haha! Überraschung, Mutterficker!"

By the time the Red-ish Unicorn looked up it was already too late. The weight of almost three ponies slammed into him and made the catwalk wobble lightly.

Said pony was already out cold by the time his partner looked towards his previous position to find out what was going on only to find a medium sized fireball heading towards him.

He froze as the ball passed above him and landed on the catwalk behind him almost instantly vaporizing it. He sighed in relief before he noticed that a second one had just eaten away the catwalk in front of him. Instantly he was sent plummeting into Scarehoof's tent, which was luckily big enough to feather his landing.

"What the bloody Hay is going on?!"

Someone shouted as ponies got engulfed in a white Aurora before being unceremoniously thrown around.

"Up there" A Pegasus yelled before she herself was thrown into one of the corridors by the white aurora.

As ponies looked up they saw a strange bipedal creature covered in mummy rags with a Staff in its hand laugh maniacally as it started shooting fire balls downwards.

A couple Unicorns shot lethal beams of Magic at it and the catwalk around it in retaliation, but were hortified to see that anything that even got close to the creature was absorbed by a shimmering white shield.

"What in the name of all that is holy is going on here?!" Yelled Von Vanhoofer as he came cantering back with a dozen other Unicorns

"Its going to end us all!" Yelled a Pegasus as he and a couple others fled through the entrance

"Oh For Tartarus' sake! Fire at the catwalks!"

a few dozen Magic beams shot at the catwalks on the far end of the hall as to avoid his impenetrable shield. A few moments later the Catwalk came crashing down and causing a huge dust cloud to form

"Is- Is it over?" Someone carefully asked after a few moments of silence

"Not today!" Something suddenly yelled as three dozen fire balls came flying through the dust.

"Fire! Fire everything you've got!" Yelled Von Vanhoofer as he and all other fourty remaining Unicorns blindly fired through the dust.

Once the dust had settled and everyone had noticed that nothing was there the firing stopped. A few Pegasi flew up to where the Creature should have been and shrugged as they couldn't find any body.

Von Vanhoofer was about to say something when suddenly Scarhoof poped up out of no where

"What in the name of this damnable place happened here?! Von Vanhoofer?! Is this your fault you little piece a shit?!"

"Uh no, Sir! It was-"

However Von Vanhoofer was unable to finish as Scarhoof was suddenly engulfed in a white aurora and pulled screaming into a side passage.

No ponies eyes could be moved away from the dark side passage, their leader and arguably their most powerful member, was pulled inside of. Not even when his screams were suddenly silenced. The sight was truly shocking and for a few moments all was calm. Calm as in the calmness before the storm.

"What- What just- Did we- Arggghh!"

The sputtering pony was pulled in by the white aurora into an actually lit passage. Evreypony watch shocked and unable to move as he was pulled in before being pulled left and out of sight. Moments later his cries of help were silenced.

"Take everything you can carry and run for-"

The pony in direct succession to Scarface was about to order an organised withdrawal when he himself was pulled into a side passage. With him also went any semblance of organisation as every pony who could started gunning it for the exit.

Meanwhile Von Vanhoofer and his most trusted subordinates charged up a teleportation spell and disappeared in a bright flash of multi coloured light.
