//------------------------------// // Arkham Asylum (not as exciting as the game) part 2 // Story: Twilight Sparkle: Green Lantern of Sector 2812 // by cornholio4 //------------------------------// After taking the elevator they entered a large area where most of the things were on fire. There was a figure in the air shouting “Remember me Mare Do Well? The Cackler will help me accomplish great things once I get rid of you!” “Is that Firefly?” Twilight asked facing Mare Do Well and she only nodded. They turned their attention to the cackling insane criminal that was Firefly. He was covered from head to toe and wings in black armour except for his head where he wore a black full face mask and an orange visor. He had attached to his back next to each of his wings, a flamethrower. “Distract him so I can enact the plan I came up with!” Mare DO Well told Twilight and she nodded. She went up in the air and put a dome around her which absorbed the fire that Firefly was throwing at her. “You can’t hide in there forever!” Firefly cackled madly as Twilight just waited patiently thinking if Mare Do Well doesn’t do something do she will just punch the Pegasus out with a construct. Mare Do Well managed to aim an electric bola to Firefly’s flamethrowers which managed to take them out. By the time Firefly noticed his weapons were not working Twilight broke her dome and took Firefly out with a construct of a fist. Mare Do Well after Firefly landed used a spell to destroy the circuitry on the back of Firefly’s armour and used a spell to pull his mask off to show an unconscious blonde maned and lilac furred Pegasus. “I think we damaged his suit enough he won’t be able to use them again, come on let’s go!” Mare Do Well told Twilight and they kept trotting throw the hall and to an elevator shaft. They noticed an army of inmates coming towards them, Twilight looked at the elevator and said “The elevator is broken but I think I can use my ring to make it work!” “Do it!” Mare Do Well said after using bolas to tie up the inmates that came the closest to the shaft. Twilight used a construct of a bubble to cover the elevator with her and Mare Do Well in it and it rose up until it got to the top floor, before any of the inmates could get inside. Mare Do Well managed to leave a magical bomb which activated after they went up off the ground and knocked the inmates out cold for when the guards reclaimed the place. *Break* They got to the top floor of the prison and went through the hallways. After ten minutes they entered a large arena full of inmates. Twilight using a construct of a fist managed to knock out the inmates that came her way while Mare Do Well used her bolas and boomerangs to knock out the inmates coming her way. Twilight then realised the room was almost yellow so she could not use her ring to try and break the room. Then they saw behind a glass door was the Cackler. Twilight gasped as she recognised the pony as Canterlot Noble who moved to Ponyville with his wife Jet Set only his mane was painted green and his face was wearing make up to look like a clown. He was also wearing a white suit he managed to sneak into his cell and changed into after taking over Arkham. He also had with him a tied up black unicorn who was the warden of Arkham Orderly Law. Cackler smiled looking at the two heroes in his arena. “Well if it isn’t Mare Do Well and the Green Loontern, having beaten up my friends who came to play!” laughed the Cackler into a magical microphone, broadcasting what he was saying to the entire arena. “Let Warden Law go, Cackler!” Mare Do Well shouted at the glass wall Cackler was behind. “I will if you beat my friend Croccy.” Cackler laughed as door opened and Twilight had her jaw drop at the sight of what was entering. It looked like an Earth pony at least twice the size of her brother Shining Armour, it had dark green dragon like scales, razor sharp teeth, shackles attached to its hooves and orange prisoner pants. “Killer Croc, an old Ponyville fable which was proven to be true!” Mare Do Well explained darkly “they say he was an earth pony who was born like this, abandoned due to his appearance and left to be raised in the sewer of Ponyville!” Twilight then thought of something and whispered something to Mare Do Well. “I guess that could work!” Mare Do Well responded with a nod of her head. Twilight used a construct of a machine while enclosed in a green bubble. Mare Do Well faced Killer Croc as the creature charged at her. Mare Do Well managed to dodge Killer Croc using her agility but Killer Croc managed to get a lucky punch in. He then started punching at Mare DO Well until she managed to block and get up. She then started punching Killer Croc’s face with her martial arts moves. She then allowed Killer Croc to chase her in circles for about ten minutes until he was getting tired. Mare Do Well then fired four electric bolas which each shocked Killer Croc’s hooves. She then took the distract and with a well aimed jumping kick managed to knock Killer Croc Out. “Surrender Cackler, you have lost!” Mare Do Well ordered. “I think not Mare Neigh-Doer!” laughed Cackler as insanely as ever “You may have beaten Croccy but I still got Arkham under my control!” “Actually no you haven’t!” grinned Twilight having dropped her protective bubble and got rid of the construct machine she had. “While Mare Do Well was fighting Killer Croc I was using that construct machine to hack into the defences of Arkham allowing the backup Royal Guards to come inside and recapture the prison!” Cackler’s smile disappeared in an instant as he rushed up a plight of stairs to the warden’s office, he saw to his horror that Twilight was not lying; the security monitors showed police ponies and royal guards running through the prison helping the captured and unconscious prison guards while recapturing the inmates who were still conscious. He then turned and saw Mare Do Well, an untied Orderly Justice and an army of law ponies having gone through the door Killer Croc came through. Cackler smiled a weak and unsure of himself smile before being knocked out with one punch from Mare Do Well’s hoove. *Break* It took no time at all for the Guards to take the prisoners including the Cackler back to their cells and trying to put things back to normal. Mare Do Well was with Twilight on the same cliff they were before entering Arkham. “You did good helping me take back Arkham Lantern.” Mare Do Well told Twilight with a stern voice “but leave Ponyville at night to me!” “I will and I think I may have to get home soon anyway before it gets too dark and get some sleep, I may see you again soon...........Rarity!” Twilight said smiling. Mare Do Well stammered for a second and realising Twilight would not be fooled by any excuse she tried to give sighed as she used her horn to remove her hat and mask to reveal a white furred and purple maned unicorn. “How did you figure it out darling?” Rarity asked using her normal voice as Twilight laughed. “I recognised traces of your real voice when you spoke as Mare Do Well, don’t worry Rarity your secret is safe with me!” Twilight responded as Rarity gave her an appreciative smile. Twilight said her last goodbye as she flew off back to Canterlot as Rarity put her mask and hat back on as she left to continue patrolling Ponyville.
