//------------------------------// // Chapter 6: Tirek Wrecks in // Story: The Odyssey of Sunlight Blaze--Rise of a hero volume 3: Rise of the Shadows. // by Justafanfictioner //------------------------------// Sunlight was enjoying a good anime, it was the afternoon and the weather was bad. Sunset, her, was trying hard to beat the final boss of the new game she bought. Fluttershy was watching an animal documentary, Rainbow Dash was also gaming, Applejack was playing board games with Big McIntosh, Granny Smith and Applebloom. Twilight was enjoying some nice Virtual Reality time, Pinkie Pie was baking some nice cupcakes, and Rarity was working on a new dress. On the side of the villains, Moonlight Frost was reading a book about philosophy, Sombra, him, was looking an horror movie, Stygian, him, was studying ( Yes, this is summer, but Stygian had to take summer classes due to his bad academic performance) and Tirek was working up. He suddenly remember that he was supposed to attack Sunlight and his friends today. He went to Moonlight’s room and knocked. “What do you want, Tirek?” asked Frost. “Was i not supposed to attack Canterlot, today? He answered. Like you said yesterday?” “Yes, he answered. What are you waiting for? My permission? Just do what you have to do” Tirek left the base and appeared in the middle of an old abandoned factory not far from Canterlot’s city limits. He then walked in in direction of Canterlot High, with the intention of causing mayhem. Coming back to the heroes, They were still doing what they were doing. A couple of minutes later, They heard an explosion and screams of terror. Tirek was throwing cars, smashing public installations, firing lasers all over the place in a way to cause the less destruction possible while drawing the more attention he could. Sunlight immediately put his super costume on, as did Sunset, Chrysalis and the rest of her friends. They all headed toward the direction of the noises. They saw cars burning on partially destroyed, roads damaged, broken street lamps and craters all over the place. A citizen who passed near them told them to run away. Sunset read her memories to discover what she saw and let her go. “It’s a big, red, muscled man that caused all those damages, she said. He went over here!” They followed Sunset and they arrived in the city stadium, where a red, big, jacked man was waiting for them “You finally arrived!!” he said to them. “You are the one who did this! Asked Sunset. Why?!” “This was just to draw your attention, answered Tirek. Now that is done, i will enjoy destroying you all” “You are one, we are 9, said Rainbow Dash. We will kick your ass in 10 minutes flat!!” “Hey, you are the guy i...Uh...Met at the bar a few days back! Said Chrysalis. Uh..Tirek, right?” “You have good memory, he said. Didn’t i told you i was a bad guy?” “No, said Chrysalis. But i suspected you to be one.” “Tirek, you said? Asked Sunlight. So, you are the Tirek of this world?” “I am, he answered. I believe you know a lot about my Equestrian counterpart, right?” “You absorb other being’s magic energy to grow stronger and bigger” said Sunlight. He looked at his friends. “Be careful with him, said the hero. Not only he can absorb your magic energy if he get you, but he is also insanely strong and tough.” “Do you have a strategy?” asked Applejack. “Do whatever you want, but don’t get close to him, answered Sunlight. Each of us will attack him from a different direction. Are you ready? Let’s go!” Sunlight fired a beam of fire at Tirek that he deflected with a handslap. “You’ll have to do better than this, he said. Let me show you how it’s done!!” He fired a powerful magic beam at Sunlight, who avoided it, The beam pierced through a portion of the stadium and continued it’s way. Sunlight was stupefied and looked back at Tirek. Rainbow Dash ran around him so fast she created a tornado around the villain. He smashed the ground underneath him and created a shockwave that destabilized Dash and made her roll on the ground. Applejack took him by behind and hit him with a baseball bat, Who broke on his back. He turned back to her and she punched him in the face. Tirek was sent a few meters back, barely phased by the hit. “Not bad, he said. I like you, girl” “Well, i don’t like you, said Applejack. Why all those muscles? Are you overcompensating for something?” “Nah, just ask Chrysalis about that” he answered. “He is huge, said Chrysalis. Well, not huge huge, but well hunged.” Pinkie Pie bombarded Tirek with explosvie cupcakes and Rarity, with diamonds. Twilight lifted him above the ground with her magic and Fluttershy ordered to all the critters around to peck or bite him. “They are annoying!!” thought Tirek, trying to firing his beam at Twilight to free himself and to get rid of the critters harassing him. Sunlight threw a powerful beam of magic at the big muscled villain, which projected him against the wall at the limit of the stadium. Moonlight was looking the fight with Sombra and Stygian. “Their teamwork became a lot better since the last time we fought, he said. And they gained some power...” “Is Tirek gonna be okay? Asked Sombra. He seem to have a hard time with them” “He will, answered Moonlight. The goal is just to scout the field. We need to know first what they have learned since the last time we met. I only want him and you 2 to test them so when the time will come to attack in team, we knew what to prepare for.” “So, we are basically the punching bags...” said Stygian. “I prefer to use the term «Scouts», said Frost. But yes.” Tirek shaked his head and decided to get serious. “That’s it, he said. I am done playing” Tirek jumped in the air and landed in front of Applejack. She tried to punch him, but he grabbed her first and threw her violently outside the stadium. Rainbow Dash immediately came after her. Pinkie Pie aimed her cannon at Tirek and fired. Tirek grabbed the projectile and threw it back at her. Twilight and Sunset blasted him with magic projectiles, that Tirek redirected violently at them. Fluttershy was looking around for some help. “Well well, what’s the problem? Asked Tirek, about to grab her. No more critter friends to help you? Too bad!!” Sunlight pushed her out of the way and blocked Tirek’s beam. “You touch her, you are going to feel the burn!” he said. He threw at Tirek a big magic fireball, Tirek put his hands above him and threw the projectile away, like a basket ball. That gave Sunlight the time to make him sink in the ground with Earth magic. Chrysalis turned into a Dragon, grabbed Tirek with her tail and smashed him against the ground repetitively. Tirek got even angrier and grabbed Chrysalis’ dragon tail and made her swirl around him like a bey before lauching her against a couple of stadium’s benches. Rainbow Dash came back with Applejack, and Sunset went to look after Chrysalis. Sunlight teleported in the air and used Wind magic to increase the pressure around Tirek and make his movement more difficult. Twilight made him hit himself, manipulating his own fist with her magic telekinesis. Sunlight didn’t stop there and created two big earth hands to immobilize him some more. He then made lightning rain on the villain’s face. “Enough!!!! Said Tirek, who broke free from the earth hands, the increased gravity and Twilight’s magic manipulation. You can’t contain me!! Nothing can!! I am fucking invincible!!” Sunlight landed on the ground. He saw that Tirek was showing signs of fatigue. “He is a tough cookie, said Pinkie Pie. After everything we threw at him, he is barely affected” “No, we did affected him, said Sunlight. He is starting to be exhausted” “That’s enough, Tirek, said the voice of Moonlight via his magic communicator. You’ve done enough! I am opening you a portal to the headquarters” “I am not done yet!!” he said. He shutted the communicator. He put his hand in the ground and ripped off a huge piece of land from it. He lauched it at the team. Sunlight destroyed it with a powerful gust of wind. Tirek jumped in the air and landed on the ground violently to cause a small earthquake. Sunlight used his Rocket boots to get in the air, Rainbow Dash was holding A.J above the ground, Chrysalis turned into a giant bird and was holding Sunset. They landed on the ground shortly after and Tirek left the stadium, trying to bring the fight on another place. The team followed him and saw Tirek throwing cars at them. Sunlight teleported away and whistled. Cinder heard the noise and left Sunlight’s room. She flew for a few minutes and saw Tirek holding her master and his friends back, playing dirty. She covered him of a huge blast of flames and magic. “Well done, Cinder! Said Sunlight. Keep you eyes on him!!” “You fucking bird, said Tirek, if i grab you, i’ll eat you for my dinner!!” Applejack threw one of the damaged cars at him and Sunlight made it explode with a flame projectile. “Eat this instead” said Sunlight. Tirek saw a big truck coming in their direction. The driver saw Tirek charging a beam at him. Rainbow Dash opened the door and evacuated the driver before the truck explode. She put him somewhere safe. “Thank you, ma’am!” said the man. “Only doing my job!” she answered. Tirek was starting to run out of ideas to gain the upper hand on the heroes. A young girl threw a rock a him. He turned his head and frowned. He grabbed a big chunk of the road and threw it at her. Applejack stopped with with her bare hands before it hit the young girl. “Wow!! Said the young girl. You are strong!!” “I ate my vegetables, said Applejack. Rainbow Dash, put her somewhere safe!” “Got it!” she answered, as she was getting the girl out of danger. Applejack smashed the chunk of road against Tirek. “You darn bastard!! She said to him. How dare you attack a defenseless little girl?!” Sunlight appeared in front of her and punched Tirek in the guts. He was wearing his battle armor. Tirek spitted out a bit of saliva and bile. Tirek tried to punch him back, but Sunlight gave him a knee in the face, propulsing himself up with his rocket boots. He then dive kicked him, projecting Tirek backward. “You...Bastard...” Said the villain. He fired a beam of magic at Sunlight, who absorbed the laser and redirected it at Tirek. Sunset tried to read his mind, but was blocked by a psychic barrier she recognized. Her and the rest of the team were surrounding Tirek, and Cinder was watching him from above. A shadow portal appeared under Tirek. “That was a fun battle, he said. Next time we meet, you won’t be so lucky...Ciao!!” Tirek disappeared in the vortex, who then disappeared. “Moonlight, said Sunlight. I recognize his magic signature. Discord was right when he told me he was back, and that he brought friends. He must have recruited the Tirek of this world to add him to his team.” Sunset looked at all the damages caused to the city. She felt anger toward Tirek for causing so much destruction. “Don’t worry about that, said Sunlight, snuggling her by shoulders. We can repair most of the damage ourselves.” “Alright! What are we waiting for?! Said Rainbow Dash. Canterlot won’t repair herself!!” Sunlight used his earth powers to repair the holes made in the roads, buildings and the Stadium, Applejack helped Twilight move the damaged cars out of the road so the circulation could start again. While they were helping repairing the city, Tirek was lying on a couch, holding an ice pack for his forehead. Moonlight was looking mad at him. “I admire the determination you showed, said Moonlight. But this is not a reason to disobey me. I told you not to attack civialians and cause unnecessary destruction. This anger of yours, you have to temper it, or i will temper it for you.” “Can you bring me more ice?” asked Tirek. Moonlight covered him under a pile of ice and left the room. “Thank you!” he said. Moonlight returned to his room and met Sombra on the way. “I hope you will do better than this muscular cretin” he said. “Don’t worry about it, boss, said Sombra. My ways are much much better” “I hope, he said. And no, i am not turning into a girl for you today.” “What? What make you think i was thinking about that?” said Sombra. “I know it, that’s all, he said. If you do your part very well, i might, might let you have your wicked ways with me.” “Uh..As a girl?” he asked. “Depend if you are gay or not, said Moonlight. And i said maybe...” Sombra smiled and walked away. Moonlight entered in his room and sat on his bed. He suddenly have thoughts about Sombra and her, as a girl, in a multiple of romantic and erotic scenarios. He quickly tried to focus on other things. ”I refuse to think i feel something for this guy, he thought. Sure, i don’t have any gender preference, but him and me? No, never...” He have a though about Sombra flexing his muscle. ”You know you want it” he said in his mind. Moonlight opened his television and watched one of his anime, which was about a student killing people using a magic book, by writing their names.
