*BANG!*
“As Celestia as my witness.........you will be avenged..........” Rarity thought cuddling to dead body of her father.
Years later
Rarity had spent her time studying criminology from the books she could find and even talked with some of her authors, also spent her time studying several fighting styles. She spent her time at a monastery, training with an old Pegasus simply known as “the Master” (not the Dr Who villain thought he is a lot more interesting).
She spent some time sparring with other students at the monastery. One night she was called into the Master’s room.
In a karate outfit she bowed before the Master before she spoke. “Rarity you have spent about a year and a half here and your training is almost complete, it is time for your final test. I want you to travel to the top of the highest mountain and retrieve an herb that only grows there.”
Rarity bowed before leaving, allowing the Master to go to his classes for generic karate masters.
After many long and gruelling days and nights she went to the top of the mountain and retrieved the plant. She then went back to the monastery and presented the Master with the Herb.
The Master had the planet made into a soup and had Rarity drink it saying “the natural essence in this herb will help your soul heal most injuries!”
Rarity then went off with a backpack containing a special purple fabric the Master had given her, said to be resistant to most magical spells.
Months Later
Rarity arrived in St Barbwire an infamous violent prison full of dragons, Minotaurs and some of the toughest ponies there were. There not actually any guards there so anything could go.
He was greeted by three smug looking large ponies. “Hey look it’s some prissy unicorn!” the leader laughed and his cronies laughed with him.
Then suddenly Rarity hit him hard in the cheek with her hoove leaving a print. “GET HER!” the furious leader said but within two minutes they were on the ground unconscious due to being match for Rarity’s martial arts training.
For several months Rarity took one just about every prisoner from dragons to even griffons. There was one last prisoner for her to fight: a minotaur who was the son of two inmates and been raised in the prison. He was known only as “The One Born and Raised in the Darkness!”
Rarity waited patiently in a fighting arena outside the prison and near a large pit, then entered the One who was a minotaur in an orange prison uniform. He was easily the largest and strongest prisoner in St. Barbwire. It was said his mother had been a dragon due to some scales on the skin.
“I will make you regret you ever came here pony!” the One said smirking at Rarity to cheers from the other inmates but Rarity only glared at the large minotaur.
“For three decades I have defeated every single inmate who has challenged me for my title as King of St. Barbwire, you will be no different!” the One said causing his followers to cheer in agreement. Their sparring match would now begin.
Rarity then charged at the One and managed to hit him with some martial art moves but the One charged at him and tossed her to the ground.
He then picked her up and put her over his shoulders. He then used a painful backbreaker move onto Rarity that was his signature move.
The One then picked up Rarity and tossed her injured body into the pit. The One then turned to face the cheering inmates.
Rarity felt herself in immense pain as she was lying at the bottom of the pit. She remembered something the Master said to her:
“the natural essence in this herb will help your soul heal most injuries!”
Suddenly she closed her eyes and managed to meditate causing her to glow purple and her injuries managed to heal themselves and she managed on her own will to get back up.
I guess you need to have nearly seen death – in order to truly live.
She then found the strength to climb up the pit, several minutes later she managed to climb back up to see the One still celebrating his ‘victory’.
When he noticed his fellow inmates were looking to behind him , he turned around and gasped in shock and disbelief. “Impossible!!!” the One roared out in rage “I – I – I broke you!!!! You should be dying at the bottom of the pit! I broke you!!!!!!!! I BROKE YOU!!!!!!!!”
“You might have injured and broken my back you ruffian!” Rarity said smirking at the looks of the One and his followers “but my spirit allowed me to climb back up, that is the one thing you cannot break you stupid brute!”
The One roared out in rage, no one disrespected him and gets away with it. He then charged at Rarity intending to finish the job.
Rarity managed to dodge him and hit him with several of her martial arts moves. She headbutted him in the stomach and the punched him in the face causing him to have a black eye after she decided to stop.
Rarity got an idea, she decided to give the ruffian a mark so that he will always be reminded of her. With a well aimed spell she managed to cut off the One’s left horn.
When he noticed this in a nearby puddle, he jumped up and then charged at Rarity again but she dodged and he was just a step away from the Pit. Rarity then hit him on the back with her back hooves causing him to fall screaming into the pit.
Rarity walked off with her backpack leaving the inmates shocked that they saw their legendary champion fall into the pit.
Many Years Later: One Year before Twilight went to Ponyville.....
She then entered the boutique and a white blur jumped at her into a hug. “Rarity! You’re back!” Sweetie Belle said with tears in her eyes as Rarity hugged her back.
“Glad to you are back after all of these years.” Said a green unicorn with a black mane smiling at Rarity “on your journey, did you find what you are looking for?”
“Yes Alfalfa.” Rarity said smiling at Alfalfa a family friend who had been running the boutique and taking care of Sweetie Belle.
*Earth 52*
In a basement underneath the boutique Rarity was hard at work creating several gadgets with her magic including bolas, purple boomerangs, smoke bombs and a grappling hook that can be used be telekinesis.
She also began using the purple fabric she had gotten from the monastery to create a purple hat, mask, cape, boots and costume. Soon it was the beginning of night and time to start her quest for vengeance.
*Earth 52*
At night in Ponyville it was rather quiet, perfect for criminals to do their operations.
Some criminals outside Sugarcube corner were dealing with some imported substances from the Dragon Kingdom.
Then suddenly a purple figure creeped up behind them and set off a smoke bomb. When the police ponies arrived in the morning they would see them tied to a tree using a bola.
Several criminals would be found tied up as well, each with a note saying:
ALL CRIMINALS WILL NOW FEAR MARE DO WELL!!!!!!!!!
Said Mare Do Well managed to interrogate several of the criminals to know who their leaders was and two names kept popping up:
Jet Set and Upper Crust.
Well it was time for them to be paid a visit.
*Earth 52*
That night Jet Set and Upper Crust two rich ponies who had moved to Ponyville were hosting a dinner party with their friends. These friends helped ran organised crime in Ponyville.
They were smart and made sure to only have small time crime happen at nights, not to draw too much attention to them and give any evidence they might be behind it.
“Some of my boys were caught, a pigeon who escaped swore it was some pony dressed like a bat.” One of the business ponies said but then the other ponies started laughing as if he told a joke.
“Nothing to worry about.” Upper Crust said with a smile “Just a small hitch in our operation.”
“If there is one, this pony dressed like a bat is probably just some idiot who we can do with shortly if it becomes a nuisance in our operation.”
“Gentleponies, here’s to our late night businesses going strong!” Upper Crust said as they toasted and began to tuck into their dinners...
Then suddenly the window to their dining hall was busted open by a brick. Then suddenly some magical surge shorted out the lights.
“Who turned out the lights?” screamed one of the ponies as they started panicking. Then a gas bomb was let off and they could make out a shadow of a masked unicorn pony in a cape and hat lighting up the place slightly with her horn.
”MARES...........GENLTEPONIES........” the figure said in a low voice that inspired fear just by the sound of it "Welcome to the first day of your downfall, you have profited from the misery of ponies for far too long but that stops now. Now your reign of terror shall end........SO SAYS MARE DO WELL.......
Mare Do Well then jumped out of the window as the ponies realised what had just happened.
