//------------------------------// // Gilda of Rage part 2 // Story: Twilight Sparkle: Green Lantern of Sector 2812 // by cornholio4 //------------------------------// After getting used to her new form she was ready. She would find that lavender unicorn and make her pay for ruining what would have been her revenge. She will have her vengeance against the lame unicorn, who not only ruined her plan but caused her to become a wanted fugitive. With her new ring and powers she will make the pony suffer, she will make sure her suffering will be long and painful. She will.........she will.............she will make her suf...........suff........suffer............ Every second her intelligence shrinks but as long as she gets her vengeance she does not care. *TS: GL 2812* Outside palace Twilight had run into Flash Sentry and was talking to him. “So you are training for the guard?” asked Twilight and Flash nodded. “Yeah and good luck in your alien Corps Ms Sparkle.” Said Flash waving as he walked off and Twilight waved back. “Good luck in your training Flash!” Twilight called to the cadet as she was leaving. Flash then walked into Twilight’s brother Shining Armor. “Sorry about that Captain Armor........” Flash then said apologetically as he was facing the taller Captain of the Guard. “No problem Cadet Sentry.” The blue maned unicorn said facing the smaller yellow Pegasus “can I ask you something?” “Sure what is it Captain Armor?” Flash asked now cowering slightly at the glare Shining was now giving him. “I just saw you with my sister.” Shining said his eyes growing fiercer with the glare “Is there any funny stuff between the two of you?” “n-no Captain Armor sir- there-there isn’t.....” Flash said stammering his words out, Shining’s glare was now disappearing. “If there is I do not want her to get hurt, is that clear?” Shining asked and Flash nodded vigorously before trotting away. Shining continued walking around until he ran into two particular military ponies. “Stolen March, Lieutenant Eiling.” Shining greeted with a nod to the two infamous military ponies. “Captain Armor.” Slade responded as he and Stolen March were sporting serious looks on their faces “I do hope you won’t be going soft.” “Soft?” Shining asked with a shake of his head “I think I am fair.” “You think the threats to Equestria will play ‘fair’ Captain Armor?” Slade asked with a humourless laugh “the soldiers of Equestria needs to be tough and strong, if the soldiers shows any softness then that will give the enemy plenty of opportunity to take them down and crush Equestria into the ground.” “Thanks but I am not sure I should be taking advice from an officer who has been suspended multiple times for recklessness.” Shining and if Slade was offended his face didn’t show it. He just let out another humourless laugh. “I do not see myself as reckless Captain Armor, even though those in authority including the Princess do not see if every action I take is to better protect Equestria.” Slade said and from his speech Shining was beginning to question this pony’s sanity “some ponies have called me a reckless wild card but I see myself as a visionary, my vision is of an Equestria protected by the toughest most capable soldiers anypony could imagine. Stay out of my way and you could be a part of my vision Captain Armor.” “Whatever helps you sleep at night Lieutenant Eiling.” Shining responded with a confused look on his face as he trotted away. Slade and Stolen March began talking as Shining was leaving. “I don’t think he took your speech too serious Slade.” Stolen March said looking worried “let’s face it ponies like him are too idealistic to think of the bigger picture.” “Give him time March, he will have his chance to see what must be done.” Slade said in a reassuring voice a parent would give to their child if they were worried about not passing a test “He along with the rest of the Guard and Equestrian Military will have their chance to join our cause. If by then he still doesn’t join our cause, then it will be a shame but we will have to accept he had lost his place in our new order on Equestria.” “I hope you’re right Slade.” Muttered Stolen March “otherwise Captain Armor could be leading the rebellion against our new order and he would prove to be a formidable threat against our vision.” “No threat against our vision will survive Stolen March, we will make sure of it.” Slade told him sternly and Stolen March then nodded slightly. With that the two military ponies then left. *TS: GL 2812* She was there, she had managed to fly to Canterlot the home of her new nemesis. The object of her upcoming glorious delicious sweet vengeance. She smirked to herself thinking about the pain she would put on the unicorn. She will pay for denying her the revenge she sought against her former closest friend Lame-O Dash! She would have to draw her out first so she can begin to fight her. She would cause enough havoc that she would have to respond. This was going to be sweet! *TS: GL 2812* In her home Sunset Shimmer was looking at The Unicorn’s Guide to dark spells a book on forbidden spells which had been outlawed in Equestria since the times of Starswirl the Bearded. She found one particular spells that may help with her quest to claim what was hers. The Duplication Spell This spell was created to be able to duplicate a certain spell or magical artefact. For example it could be used to duplicate a really strong spell so that the caster could be able to perform it as well. It was outlawed as if used to duplicate a pony, the ponies’ traits would be divided by the spell and it not put back together again the duplicate and the original could die within hours. This spell could be used for everyday items, sources of energy, magical artefacts as stated above and various spells. She laughed, this spell could help her to take what was rightfully hers from that lavender unicorn her former mentor replaced her with. *TS: GL 2812* In Ponyville at Sweet Apple Acres, Applejack was thinking of the week she head since Twilight went back to her home in Canterlot. Her left changed forever and she remembered how it started: Applejack was selling apples on a family stand. Across from her a rival apple stand was being operated by two Pegasus ponies that were jeering and heckling her, saying they would drive her and her family out of business. ”Look it is one of those soon to be has-been apples!” one Pegasus said to the other. They then began laughing. Soon Applejack snapped to the taunts and mocking laughter of the two ponies and she hit the ground with her hooves. Suddenly the ground shook as if an earthquake hit, the two ponies landed on their stand ruining their merchandise. With shock looks of their faces the scampered from the area while Applejack was wondering what had happened. Later that day other things started happening including she swearing that she could breath ice and shoot beams from her eyes. This culminated at the dinner table when she found to the shock of Applebloom and Big Macintosh she was floating in air. Granny Smith just shook her head and said “I knew something like this would happen, I have something I should have told you three a long time ago.....” *TS: GL 2812* Later Twilight went up to the Princess Celestia’s room only to catch her doing something which involved dancing and a pole. After an oath from the two of them nether to bring that incident up ever again Twilight began talking to her mentor. “Princess, you think I will be ready to join this Green Lantern Corps?” asked Twilight earning a laugh from the Princess. “Twilight, my faithful student.” Princess Celestia said looking down at Twilight using a motherly tone and smile “You have done good things since I have taken you under my wing. This challenge of being a part of this interplanetary Green Lantern Force I have no doubt you will be able to do good things in using that ring. I have faith in you Twilight, in that you will accomplish many more great things and you will not let me down.” Twilight felt a little reassured and although she still had doubts, she looked up and said “thanks Princess, I think I needed that!” Then rushed in was a panting Royal Guard who after catching his breath said “Princess some sort of monster griffon is wreaking havoc in the city! The closest guards are having little to no effect on the beast!” The Princess looked concerned but Twilight looked ready. She then used a spell to take out her Green Lantern from a pocket vortex she had been storing it in. She then pointed her horn at it and recited the Green Lantern Oath (as during her week training on Oa she and the other cadets were told how to make their own pocket vortex for the Lanterns as they would be needed to recharge their rings by pointing the rings to the Lantern and reciting the Oath). Twilight then transformed into her GL uniform. Before floating out of the room she said to Princess Celestia “Don’t worry Princess, with my Green Lantern Power Ring i think I can take this beast down!” After Twilight left Princess Celestia softly muttered to herself “Twilight, please don’t let your confidence turn into arrogance as it did for Sunset and be your downfall as well.” *TS: GL 2812* When Twilight floated down to the city she was shocked by what she was seeing. There were fired and destruction everywhere. There were Royal Guards injured on the ground. There were red liquid everywhere. “What could have done this?” Twilight wondered in her head as she examined the liquid and it looked like blood to her. Then suddenly she was thrown across to a nearby building as she left like a herd of buffaloes had charged at her back at once. She groaned as she got back up. She then felt a pair of eagle claws grab her and started punching at her face. Then suddenly she felt like some creature was spitting blood at her. She was then thrown to the ground. She got up and saw a red blur in the sky. It began spitting at her with blood and she managed to make a shield construct to protect herself but it wasn’t holding very well. “What- what am I fighting>” Twilight was wondering as she felt her shield starting to crack “Wait Twilight remember the training you got on Oa, the power of the ring comes from your will and concentration! Concentrate Twilight!” After focusing and concentrating her mind the shield suddenly began repairing it’s cracks and she slowly floated up to the red blur until she managed to knock it down to the ground with a construct of a giant fist. Twilight floated down and saw to her shock the blur was a female griffon with a red version of her uniform (only with a different symbol and no domino mask) and it looked like it was drooling blood from its mouth. It looked like something from a really terrifying bad nightmare. While totally different Twilight thought the griffon looked somehow different. Twilight let out a gasp when she realised why it looked so familiar, it was from the wanted photo of the one who hired the pony thugs back in Ponyville. “Gi-Gilda?” Twilight asked scared. Gilda managed to get up and smirked at her nemesis with a cruel wicked predatory smile. “I will destroy you and rip you to shreds – peace by peace!” Gilda roared t as she began to prepare for her next attack. Twilight gulped and knew that while Nightmare Moon was tough this was a whole new league. This could very well be her first real challenge since joining the Green Lantern Corps. She knew she was about to be in the fight for her life.
