//------------------------------// // Chapter 3: The Memories Unravel // Story: A Fractured Soul // by Shadowmane PX-41 //------------------------------// "What are you talking about, Twi?" Rainbow Dash asked the princess as she forgot more about their adventures, "You know us, we're your friends, remember?" "If i had friends, they'd remember me." She said with a hint of sorrow creeping into her soul, "But things didn't go my way back in Canterlot." "Muhahahahahahahahahaha, it's finally happened!" Sunset Satan said once more contacting the ponies, "Twilight Sparkle is forgetting everything! just as the legend fortold!" And in a flash, all the other tv screens showcasing their adventures and their movie, were shattered in the blink of an eye, and the world around the ponies was now dark red instead of dark purple, what's more was, an earthquake started to form in the world around them, destroying more of their prison. "Hey, what's going on?" Rainbow Dash asked as the forgetting rule caught up to her as well, "Where am i? and who are you?"" "Without meeting Twilight, you're starting to lose and forget everything!" Sunset Satan said as the other ponies were now afflicted by the no memories curse, "Discord, Queen Chrysalis, Sombra, Even Nightmare Moon, you never met Twilight, you never defeated the villains, the Elements Of Harmony don't even exist anymore!!!!!!!" And quickly as a flash, the Mane 6 lost their cutie marks wings and horns, and were left utterly powerless as the world around them continued to crumble. "You're insane!" Celestia said to the demon as the Mane 6 were fading away into nothingness. "No Celestia, i am your exiled student! this is all your fault, Celestia! by not giving me what i wanted when i wanted, you've awakened a demon, and let her conquer Equestria without a fight!" She said as Canterlot was completely vaporised by her dark fire magic. "Sunset Shimmer?" Celestia asked her. "Not any more!!!!! this is my new body, this is my new power, and i am Sunset Satan from now on!!!!!!!" The demon said in response. "This can't be, you were exiled, you couldn't have possibly become this powerful by posing as a so-called human" Luna said as if trying to deny the demon's existance. "You were foolish to make Twilight a princess, because of your actions, YOU HAVE DOOMED YOUR PEOPLE, YOUR PLANET, AND YOUR NAME!!!!!!!" "I'm sorry, i'm so so sorry." Celestia said with tears starting to form, "I shouldn't have handed her Starswirl's spellbook! I've ruined everything!!!!" She started to cry. "Yes you have, but don't worry, i'll end your tears, BY ENDING YOUR LIFE!!!!!" She said as she dashed through the portal and slashed her new swords at the white alicorn, As if to cut her in half with a fatal blow. "I'm still not handing you Equestria!!!!" Celestia said with magic overflowing inside of her, and a new sword replacing her horn, She was now 1-on-1 clashing with Sunset Satan, "Luna! you restore the Sprits Of Harmony, I'll take take of this thing!!!!" "Very well, Sister Celestia!" She said whilst charging for the fading Mane 6, as well as vanishing, they were also getting younger as well, "Twilight, this isn't you, or any of your friends! you're supposed to be fearless, brave, happy, and always sticking to your talents, that's how you became my subjects, and what's more, that is how you overpowered my darkness." A tiny spark appeared in Filly Twilight's eyes and she remembered up to her princess coronation, At this moment, a pillar of light shrouded the Mane 6 and after much pictures of their adventures started to appear again, the Mane 6 were back to their normal states, and the tv screens showcasing their adventures suddenly re-materialzed out of thin air. "NO! I WON'T ALLOW THIS CHILD TO BECOME A PRINCESS!!!!!" Sunset Satan said whilst charging at Twilight and friends with dark magic in claws. "Enough!!!!" Celestia said, teleporting in front of Sunset Satan and portalling her into the ground, causing her to crash and come out of the crater looking a mess. "This isn't over, Celestia! you and your friends still have to break through my Efreet!" She said whilst dissapearing through the initial portal and starting to seal it with her dark magic. "But how? the Efreet can overpower any kind of pony magic it battles." Twilight said to her ruler, Celestia. "Any kind of individual pony magic, Twilight, if we combine our powers and shoot it down with a godlike spell, we'll be able to defeat the Efreet and reclaim Equestria!" She finished it for Twilight seeing as her book seemed to have a page crossed out. "Ready?" Luna asked them. "Ready!" Twilight and friends said in unison. "Then it's time, time to pull out all the stops, no holding back!!!!!" Celestia said as the ponies all lined up and formed a rainbow in their tracks, as they lined up, their horns and wings turned rainbow-coloured and they started levitating off of the almost destroyed world. "IMPALING FRIENDSHIP SPEAR!!!!!!"" Came from all eight mares as they shot themselves forward at the Efreet, before the impact however, they transformed into a rainbow-coloured spear and impaled the Efreet upon impacting, it let out a deafening scream and vanished into its own fire hurricane before it exploded. "The way is clear! it is time to take back our home!" Luna said as they were leaping through the almost closed portal and back into the Canterlot Throne Room, when they landed however, they were greeted by both the demon and zompony armies commanded by Sunset Satan, six to ten thousand eyes coloured black were now staring down the eight mares as they opened their own eyes. "So, you've finally made it eh?" Sunset Satan said whilst descending onto her new throne, it was made of fire, and decorated with streaks of blood, and spikes of red and black were laden out on the wall behind her. "This is your last chance, Sunset Satan! leave Equestria at once! or get struck down by the light of undying friendship!!!!" Celestia decreed as they all stood up and brandished their weapons. "Undying friendship, that's a good one, hahahahahahahahahah! do you really think friendship is going to strike me down a second time?!" Sunset Satan said as the walls behind her were turned into rubble. "This is our turf now!" Nightmare moon said as she burst through the ruined wall with all the other entities of darkness "Friendship has no right to belong in this world!" Discord said after the black alicorn finished. "And all who seek it out....." Queen Chrysalis paused. "......Will be crushed by the endless darkness!" King Sombra said for her. "That is the law of this world now, Princesses, and you can't possibly have anypony else to help you, because everypony on your planet, IS WORKING FOR ME!!!!!!!!" Sunset Satan said as her Zomponies roared a roar of black magic. "Then you leave us no choice, demon" Luna said as the Mane 6 took up their Elements, "PREPARE TO BURN IN FRIENDSHP'S NEVERENDING LIGHT!!!!!!!!" "Very well, princesses." Her demons and Zomponies were now preparing to charge at them, "CHARGE!!!!!!!!"
