//------------------------------// // Chapter 6 The Sister // Story: MLP: FIM: The Vengeance of Kul'as // by Hairy Konquerer //------------------------------// There were thousands of skeletons around and in the castle in Canterlot. But that was before two of them decided to mock Twilight for believing in the Pinkie sense she responded in away she did in Froggy Bottom Bog. Only this time she didn’t give up, she blasted straight to the castle and smashed every skeleton near her causing panic not only in ever skeleton near her but in the skeletons in the castle, however she made sure not to cause any damage to anything not a skeleton. Celestia knew she had to calm her down, but there were bigger problems to deal with, like Luna, so she flew as fast as she could as soon as she had a clear shot to Luna’s tower. She minded the smoky smell and shattered skeletons and made her way to Luna’s room. When she entered she could see there was a sign of a brief struggle as she turned to the balcony and saw Luna there, no wounds or marks on her body, clearly watching Twilight in a very bad mood. “Luna, you’re ok! Don’t worry everything will be ok and we’ll be sure to help you.” Celestia was happy as her sister was unharmed but something was odd as Luna only chuckled maliciously at that sentence. “I can assure you dear sister, if anyone will need help,” Luna turned around to face Celestia, scaring Celestia, as Luna’s eyes were slits just like Nightmare Moon’s with a grin of equal of the same caliber. ”It’s you.” Celestia feared for her sister thinking of how she missed her for a millennia, but was shocked as she saw something in her mane, exactly where her crown was, which Celestia noticed was across the room in some of the mess caused in the struggle Luna must’ve been in. it was the size of a newborn foal but it had the body of a wirewolf, but it only had three limbs and each one was a single wirewolf finger and where it’s head was, was a single red wirewolf eye. Celestia came out of her shock at the creature’s appearance. ”What is that thing?” The creature proceeded to show a little more of it by rising out of Luna’s mane a little more. “Sorry, where are my manners.” Luna’s mouth didn’t move nor was her voice heard. The voice was clearly male and came from thing on Luna’s head, and as it spoke it’s eye glowed a little to signify he spoke. ”Allow me to introduce myself, Sneak’s is the name, snatching minds I my game.” Celestia had no time to converse with this thing possessing her sister. ”What have you done with my sister?” Sneak was curious at what she was talking about than realized what it was. “Oh, your sister it’s no problem. I just did as the boss said to and took over your sister’s mind. And it’s more like her made became her unconsciousness while I took over as the new consciousness. But she put up quite a fight I’ll tell you that. In fact she still is, usually most creatures couldn’t resist this much she’s actually still resisting, but not enough to actually slow me down. However there’s still a part of her that acts like Nightmare Moon, minus the endless night deal and so she’s helping me maintain control of the body. So with that settled,” A dark cloud swirled around Luna and dispersed leaving Nightmare Moon with Sneak attached to her helmet in her place. ”Let’s make it one for the books.” Objects like sheet metal and pipes swirled about obscuring Nightmare as it formed into a large wirewolf with no lower body whose eyes glowed a sinister red and a rectangle of it’s chest made of Plexiglas but not obscuring Celestia’s view of Nightmare as music began to play and the hands converted into buzz saws and began to attack Celestia. “This world has changed my girl, since you’ve been away Without a sun princess, it’s Oogie Boogie’s way! ” “Luna please, oh can’t you see you’re wrong” “You used to rule, but now you’re nothing but prey,” Oogie Boogie is back, and he’s planning to stay.” “This whole crazy web you’re weaving, Sneak from your mind he'll soon be leaving, Sister please, it’s not to late,” “All my machines will seal your fate!” Buzz saws appeared from the window, held in Nightmare’s magic, and began to fly towards Celestia who dodged every throw. “My blades are now spinning, my creations are large, When they move towards you there’s no question who’s in charge, If by some chance you survive the attack, They’ll be many more, you better watch your back! The buzz saws were gone, but that didn’t stop Sneak from using the one’s that were the machine’s hands. We’ll now my girl it seems you’ve lost your crown, In a few mere moments you’ll be six feet in the ground!” A new voice joined in the song and it was one Celestia knew well: her faithful student’s. And as if she asked, Twilight came in, but not as that flame of anger but as her student she loved to mentor/ “Stop at once! Can’t you see this is absurd?” Sneak was not about to allow her to stop this. “No more tricks! You’re friends are now your foes, And now this dance is nearing it’s close!” Celestia and Twilight both thought the same thing: a combined effort of the two of them would win this. “All these ponies that you’re hurting , Oh good Royal it’s disconcerting, Luna please, you’re thinking is all wrong!” “In a moment finally you’ll be gone!” “You shoot and attack us Luna please do not fight Were not your enemies we’re you’re sister and twilight! When this is all over good friends we will be You’ll praise Sneak no more, you can take that from me.” With a final shot from both Celestia and Twilight, the mech was destroyed and Sneak sent flying off Nightmare’s head along with a black clump of goo. Luna came surfacing back as Nightmare came engulfed in a bright light groaning a little. When the light toned down, Luna was left but as she was now, not when she came but unconscious but okay and floating from the ceiling was the Element of Loyalty which Twilight grabbed before going to Luna along with Celestia.
