EPIC RAP BATTLES OF HISTOR the writer was rudely interrupted by a brick being smashed against the back of his head. Moving to my chair and throwing the corpse out my window, I started typing.
(Present Canterlot Royal Statue Gardens P.O.V James Heller)
"About time you showed up Celestia."
I stared at her with no emotion on my face. Here was the one who caused me to suffer. Here is the one who couldn't see reason. Here is the one who thinks that her own kind are so pure and innocent. She has no idea of what she let happened. All she saw were destroyed towns. All she saw was me by the bodies with blood on my hands. All she saw was me fighting her guards. All she saw of me was a monster. A monster that almost killed her sister.
"Celestia I know why you are here, but you must listen to me. Let me leave. You know what happens when I stay in an area to long."
"I'm sorry, but I can not allow you to do as you please. If I risk the infection spreading. Then so be it. It is better to have it where it can be easily contained than letting you run and spreading it in your path. Now I give you one chance. Come with me quietly or I will force you to come."
She finishes her statement by pulling out her sword. This sword had a golden, diamond studded hilt. The blade was covered in many runes that glowed with power. The sword itself emitted a powerful aura. Looking at it will make anyone feel the power the sword possessed and the fear that it wrought. I however know better. The sword was in my possession a time long ago.
"Using my own toy against me Celestia. No matter for it won't help you. But you are making a grave mistake. Another one that will cause hundreds to die."
"I don't like it either but you must be contained. You are just too dangerous to be allowed to roam free. Please understand. It is only what's best for everyone."
"Don't give me that. You only care about your subjects. You only see the light in them. And it's that light that blinds you."
"Very well. You leave me no choice." She finished her statement by using her magic. Celestia was covered in a blinding light. It took all of my will power to not look away. Deciding to not be a dragon ball z character I rushed at her. I brought my arm out and swung at her. The light died down and her fist met my own. Celestia was decked out in golden armor from head to waist. Around her legs was a white skirt with her cutie mark covering most of it. She had armored leggings that spiked at the knee. Her wings ended in more rune covered blades. And she had a shit eating grin. She took my arm and through me back. On landing I skidded a few feet.
She looked at her mangled hand and then with a rush of magic started healing it. We just stood there glaring at each other. Sizing the other up. Watching for the slightest of movement. The tension in the air only continued to grow. The guards were smart and left the area. Maybe even evacuate Canterlot if need be. Celestia and I just continued to glare at each other. We stayed like that for 1 minutes.
2 minutes.
3 minutes.
Then we charged.
I reached out and grabbed a nearby statue. It was a statue of a mare carrying a flag. I think it was called victory or whatever.
Focusing power into my legs I propelled myself into the air. At the peak of my jump I used all the strength I could bring forth and hurled the thing at her. She dodged then flew up at me readying her sword. I quickly changed my dive into a flying kick. Sword met foot in a mid-air clash. The collision caused both the air and the entire garden to shake. The ground beneath us cracked from the power Celestia and I put out. Celestia then spun and tried to strike me with her wings. I jumped back and saw the blade slash the air a few inches away from my face. When I landed I jumped back to put some distance in between me and the all but goddess.
Okay lets do a quick check of the situation. She has that unbreakable sword. Somehow she is meeting me for blow to blow. She has the home field advantage, and I can't use my blades. I am going to need to be creative if I want to survive this. Focusing, I called upon every memory I had of Celestia. All the times we met and fought. Every spell she casted. Every weapon she used. Every stance she made. Everything having to deal with Celestia came to me in perfect clarity. It was at this point that day and night got drunk and started square dancing. One second the sun is up and the next the moon comes out.
"Hey Celestia, me thinks you have bigger problems than dealing with myself."
"Don't worry. I have some who is more than capable handling him. You are the only one I have to deal with." She raised her sword and started to charge a spell. Searching my memory, from the stance and way she is holding her sword can only mean one thing.
SOLAR STORM!!!!!!1
Celestia eyes went completely white as she swung her sword in an arc. What came next can be called a b**** to deal with. Volley after Volley of flaming arrows of light came at me. I was barely able to dodge the first wave. For those who don't know, this spell will incinerate anything it pierces from the inside out.
The attack was relentless, but in a few more burst and it was done. Everything the arrows hit were burning. The arrow above my head made me glad I shaved my glorious afro off.
"Hey Celestia! At this rate you're going to burn down Canterlot. You sure you don't want me to leave!"
Celestia then put on a look of deep concentration. She channeled magic into both her arms and legs. With a speed almost close to mine she appeared in front of me and swung. I dodged it and the fight was back on again. We kept trying to hit each other, but in was futile. She was matching me move for move. She use her sword and I would dodge it. I would try to land a blow and she would side step it. This was our dance of death and it was beautiful. Neither opponent was leaving much room for an opening. Any one dumb enough to still be in the area was looking at us in awe. Any mistake made would be fatal. I needed to see an opening.
Okay focus. I need to focus. Now!!!!! I slammed my knuckles together and created a shockwave that sent Celestia back. Then I rushed up to her and delivered a jaw breaking uppercut
. I couldn't tell you how far she flew up. The only thing I could tell you is that she was pissed. Her face was covered in blood. She knew better then to let me get near it and quickly used magic to restore herself. She was starting to look exhausted. I am not even surprised.
"You've gotten better since the last time we did this."
"Yes and I am giving you one last chance. Turn yourself in now or I will end this myself."
She is almost as stubborn as I am. "Enough talking Celestia. It's obvious that neither of us is going to give up.
She used her magic and this time I was taken by surprise. She just made 4 clones of herself. And they all ganged rushed me.
I dodged the first lunge, but the second one was waiting for it and took a swing at me with the sword. I caught it and then went and threw her at the third one. While I did this the fourth one came up at me and got a stab in. The sword went through me and then I knew something wasn't right. The sword should of stopped as soon as it hit my back. Heck, I didn't even feel it go through me. The four were soon in front of me again. But this time i was ready. I closed my eyes and cleared my mind.Time to show you why I am the top predator. Hunter Sense!
I could see everything in my minds eye. The buildings in the distance, the surrounding hedges, and the opponents in front of me. Which is why I was surprised when I gained a response from behind me. Quickly stepping to the side, the real Celestia swung her sword and hit the spot where I was. Quickly, I put all my power and falcon kicked the b**** away from the sword. Once again the air rippled and it seam Celestia's whole body shook with it as she was sent flying and tumbling into the distance. As she hit the ground the armor she wore shattered. She stood up spat out a few teeth. Her nose was broken and bleeding nonstop. One of her eyes was black. And she looked incredibly pissed. Why does it feel like I said that before? Also I am kind of surprised she was still able to stand. I take what I said back earlier. She is more stubborn then I am.
Celestia stood up and brought her arms to her side. Once again she started channeling her magic. This time it was into her entire being. She started to glow with a mesmerizing aura. Her eyes went completely white and seemed to shine with a light of their own. She started floating as her mane changed from its regular colors to the colors of a flame. Every injury she sustained started to slowly heal.
I picked up the sword and got ready for what she had next. I jumped into the air and prepared to end it.
Celestia just raised her arm at me and gathered the remainder of her magic. SUPERNOVA!!!
She hurled a freakin mini sun at me. It was so bright and so very hot. I swear I could smell my ass cooking. I quickly turned my attack into a block. The attack connected and I gave a smirk. "Just as planned."
The attack hit me and I was launched clear into the sky. Dashing and entering into a glide I began my escape. Celestia saw what I was doing and panicked. "Oh no you don't." She spread her wings and quickly took off after me. Luckily I was prepared. I decided that the sword was no longer needed so I raised it in front of my locket and watch it disappear. Man I love the hammer space. Too bad I lost everything I had when they turned me into a statue. Now with my hands free I took the gun I stole from the guard and aimed it at her. I was too far for her to see what I was doing. I pulled the trigger. She screamed. The first few shots missed. The next directly hit her wings. The final rounds broke her armor and hit her in the chest. She fell. I set the gun from stun and back to lock as I continued my glide out of Canterlot and over the cliff. I landed into the forest and took off into a dead sprint. Where I was going only time could tell. All I know is that any place was better than here. In the distance I saw a giant rainbow dome appear out and expand. A wall of light was quickly approaching me. I met it head on and it phased through me. I looked around and everything was normal. Even the sun and moon stopped their dancing. Curiosity got the best of me one more time. "Guess I know where I am heading." With that said I took off.
(Few hours later Canterlot Castle Medical Wing P.O.V Celestia)
"She's in critical condi....... Hurry and get her stabil...... That eye has to come ou......She's waking up."
incess... lestia............. Sister!!......everyone give her som......
Where am I? Ugh my head. I tried to sit up, but the pain knocks me back down then.
The nurse quickly comes to my side and eases me back down. "Princess, can you hear me?"
I looked around the room or at least I would if my eyes weren't blocked by my hair. "What happened? Where is Blacklight?"
The nurse was about to respond when the door to the room burst open for the 3rd time that day.
"SISTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
My hands immediately shot up to my head. God damn it Luna. My ears were ringing the my headache became much worse thanks to the ever helpful royal voice. "Lulu please, inside voice."
Luna blushed and put on a sheepish look. "We are sorry dear sister, but thou had us quite worried. Especially when we saw thy condition."
My condition? I brushed the lock of hair out of my face to get a good look at myself. For starters, my entire chest was rapped. My jaw was sore, and I could only see out one eye. I started to panic at that point for one main reason. My eye wasn't being blocked by hair.
"I reached up and this time really felt my head. The entire right side was wrapped. I was really panicking. The heart monitor can atone to that. Both the nurse and Luna were at my side again.
"Sister, calm down."
"Nurse please tell me what happened. How did I get here? What happened to Blacklight?"
"Well, you were..um..shot out of the sky your highness."
Shot out of the sky? "What do you mean?"
"Just that your majesty. You were shot by an assault rifle. You were burned at the wings and most of your chest by the shots. Thankfully it was set to stun or who knows what might have happened. After you fell, a party was sent out and located you in the woods outside of Canterlot. You were brought here and rushed to the E.R" She grabbed a chart at the end of my bed. The bed was surprisingly getting less and less comfortable as she went on. "You suffered from a dislocated shoulder, a few broken ribs, a dislocated jaw, you are missing a few molars, and." The nurse stopped and seem to shudder a little. This worried me greatly.
"Please tell me nurse. I believe I haven't gotten your name."
"Herbal Remedy, your majesty."
"Miss Remedy, you do not need to feel nervous. Please tell me what you were trying to say."
The nurse took a gulp and then tried to calm herself down. "The doctors did everything they could, but they couldn't save your eye your highness."
And now the bandages around my head make sense. I sat there to let the shock past. Why isn't it passing. The lights green, shock, please get moving.
"And Blacklight?"
Both the nurse and Luna didn't want to answer that one. How can you tell a person who tried their hardest and ended up in the hospital that their efforts were worthless. That they failed. Celestia's pleading and hope filled eyes er eye was making it harder. In the end it was Luna who spoke up.
"Blacklight hath, escaped dear Sister. He was no where to be found. As if he vanished without a trace."
"That is most unfortunate then. What about Discord?"
"Thy guard hath returned with his statue and are awaiting for thy return."
"At least one thing went right today. Luna please deliver this message to the captain Shining Armor. He is to alert every guard about Blacklight and has my consent to use any thing he deems fit to complete this task. It should go without saying that he needs to be discreet about this. If the press gets word of this who knows what chaos it will cause."
"Don't worry sister, we will capture that fiend once again. We won't let that disaster happen a second time."
"I only pray that it won't happen a second time. With each second he is free is a second where that hope is dashed a little. I just hope we can capture him before things get out of hand." I then looked out the window and gazed into the distance thinking about all the lives that were lost to capture that monster. So many innocent lives ended from his rampage. So many more ended from that plague that came with him. Thinking about this made my anger rise and my will stronger.
Luna seeing as nothing else could be said decided to take the message to the guard. "Sister please rest and get well. Blacklight can't hide forever." She left and closed the door.
"If only that were true Luna. If only that were true." I laid down and let sleep take hold of me once more. Freeing me from the headache that was James Heller.
