//------------------------------// // Final Battle-Nightmare Moon // Story: Fluttershy's Mansion: Dark Moon // by Shazam 25 //------------------------------// At this sudden moment, a familiar teleportation spell was in effect, but it zapped on the ground in a violet color of lightning that form a circle shape. The magical atoms of one's being where reforming themselves, bringing Fluttershy in as a whole while she held a position of being in the air while wearing the Ghost Seeker "WAaaugh...gugh?" Fluttershy yelped from appearing out of nowhere to land on some strange purple floor design. "Ow...what happened?" The pegasus responded to shake her head from the blow she felt while getting up a bit. "Hugh...WAAaahuaaaghh!?" Suddenly, Fluttershy yelped up to her hooves to notice, that she was not in the bunker with Ghost Studies or the others; just where was she? "Wuuagh...where am I?" She held her flashlight like her only supporter in looking around this dark surroundings with nothing outside it and only a floor to provide her a walking aid. But all around, Fluttershy saw nothing, but darkness and more darkness while where she stood was like an island dessert surrounded by emptiness. "Ha-ha-ha-haaa..." Suddenly, there was the sound of cackling in the air, evil laughter of a female type. "Hugh! What was that?" Fluttershy yelped to point her flashlight at wherever that sound came from, but saw nothing. "WHah-ha-ha, Haaahhh!" The wicked cackle was heard, more nastier then the last. "Hugh! There it is again." Fluttershy cringed in fright to look to another side, where of where was that creepy sound coming from. "Who-who-who-who...who could be doing all this? I thought everything with the ghost was over?" Fluttershy was almost looking more worried, being surrounded in darkness didn't sit well, and just when she believed everything was over. Then behind Fluttershy, something began to appear that were like curtains from within the darkness, unveiling some light from windows. "WOh-hahahahaaahh..." More of that evil laughter was heard, just as more hidden curtains of darkness pulled away to reveal more windows, scattered all over and uncoordinated. "Hugh? Oh my.", Fluttershy yelped in noticing what was appearing, this didn't look very good at all, "Ohohoho, what's going on here?" The girl looked around from seeing the windows appearance, but it was no daylight, so what was happening here, was this some sorta fun-house...but without the fun. "Gehahahaaahhh..." More evil cackling was heard from around the entire area. "WAh, that voice again." Fluttershy turn around from hearing that laughter, but from her nervous expression & worries, she can't tell where it came from. "WAh-hahahahaah..." Then as if the wicked cackles weren't enough, a creepy shadow of an Alicorn pony flew across one of the windows. "Wugh, what was that...just now?" Fluttershy turned from almost swearing, she saw something flew outside that window, but it wasn't there no more. "Wah-hahahah-Hahahahaa..." Then even more maniacal cackling was heard with that same shadow Alicorn flying over three more windows up. "Wherr...where are you?" Fluttershy slowly moved her flashlight, wanting to catch who's scaring her, but this being was too good unlike the other ghost. "Wher-where are you?" She muttered with a spooked out tone in her throat, wondering where the new enemy will appear. "Hehe..hehehehahaha..." More fiendish laughter was heard all around, the voice was everywhere and nowhere at all. "AAahhh...!" Fluttershy yelped from trying to find the source, but even the shadows of the Alicorn were moving slippery...like a shadow without a physical body. "Wehehe..." The laughter was heard,, making the poor ghost hunter look left & right, right to left, almost going in circles. "Ah-Waugh-Hugh?" Fluttershy was starting to seriously begin to almost lose herself in this hide-n-seek like game, whoever is doing this could pop up any moment. "WRUU-ha-ha-ha-hugh-hugh-hugh-hugh..." The laughter grew darker and darker, the shadowy form was spinning around all the windows while making it harder for the pony in the room to follow. "WAaugh-Waaaugh!" Finally, Fluttershy couldn't keep up with all the spinning action, and then slip off her balance to be on the floor. "WRUhahahah-hahahaaaah..." That wicked cackle laughter was heard, as Fluttershy tried to pick herself up while the dark curtains were closing over the windows, sealing off any light in this darken world one lonely pony has landed in. "Whah-hah, hahahaaah..." Fluttershy looks up in seeing that on one thing, the laughter cease after that last chuckle, but now the light in this dark place was gone. "Ohohoho, thank Celestia that's over with.", Fluttershy signs to wipe her forehead from feeling relief that commotion was over, "But now, how do I get out of here & back to everypony else waiting for...oh?" Suddenly, while wondering what to do, she looked up in surprise to see something. In front of Fluttershy, was actually a portrait, like what she seen in the mansions earlier. Only this one didn't hold the CMC or Spike, not even Twilight since they were freed. But this picture did show Fluttershy & her friends, only instead of it being with a happy moment, they all looked...spooked-out? Like something scared them & couldn't react during this frame-work. Why was that? "Huuugh?" Fluttershy responded puzzled in seeing a portrait of those she knows was hanging in this strange little world. "Huugh...uugh...hugh?" Fluttershy slowly pushed herself up to her hooves to begin walking a bit closer to this portrait. "Ohh...I wonder?" Fluttershy spoke with curiosity, and raised her left hoof to touch this picture in wondering if it's real. "Fluttershy!" Celestia's voice was heard, and look to behold, Fluttershy turn to see the princess of the sun & her sister of the moon, flapping through the darkness to reach the island area. "Princess Celestia...Princess Luna...How did you...?" Fluttershy was so overwhelmed by this, that she was soon answered before her asking was done. "You have been teleported to the Paranormal Dimension, young pegasus." Luna explained with a stern tone that the pony is in the world where the ghost call home, again. "We, have teleported ourselves here with our magic being enough to help us find you." Luna explained how she and Celestia managed to come to this place. "The others are worried when we thought something happened, so Luna & I decided, that after the others had helped you in your adventure, we Royal Sisters, shall also aid you." Celestia also explained that it had come time to have the Royal Princess of the Sun & Moon, aid Fluttershy, especially since having the feeling...this enemy, maybe the strongest of them all. "Well that explains things, but what's with this picture portrait if it has me & the others?" Fluttershy responded to say while turning back to gaze at the strange portrait. "Fluttershy, be warned!" Luna spoke with a serious tone in seeing what the young pony was going to do. "That portrait isn't of the others, it's a fake." Celestia issued that Fluttershy's friends are safe, the portrait was just that...a picture. "Ooohh...?" As Fluttershy was almost about to touch the picture portrait however, something seem to appear coming from behind it. "WHA-Hahahah!" Suddenly, the portrait picture vanished to instead show..the ghost of Nightmare Moon. "Waaugh!" Fluttershy yelped backwards in terror in seeing an old foe from the past she thought was dealt with; the Ghost of Nightmare Moon! "WHahahahah-ha-haaa..." Nightmare Moon laughed off evilly while her entire being was noticed, the dark expression on her face, and the strange glowing gem on her crown definitely looked like something that make her appearance more...powerful looking, even taller than the other princesses to be like Big Shadowbolt. "So it was true after all of what they said about my other self?" Luna sternly spoke in seeing first hand, the form that was of her old evil side. "The form & personality have taken to be a new Nightmare Moon, only in a ghostly form." Celestia spoke with a serious tone in seeing this enemy, but there was something...not right about this ghostly form of Nightmare Moon. "Mwahahaha! Now what have we here?" Nightmare Moon's Ghost spoke in laughing sinisterly in hovering over those that were present before her. "Why, if it isn't my old friend, Fluttershy! Or is it Scaredyfly? I can't tell the difference." She spoke in recognizing Fluttershy, was making a teasing taunt of the yellow pegasus, seeing her shake like a leaf. "Gulp." Fluttershy swallowed hard from hating to admit that right now, she was feeling like her old shy self. "You shall not speak rudely to her!" Celestia spoke in standing up for Fluttershy against the enemy. "My sister is right, your tone is unwelcome!" Luna spoke diligently on the pony being bullied here. "Oh, and what do we have here? Celestia & my old goody self, Luna. How quaint that you would be here with the one pony that has been hunting the ghost all this time?" Nightmare Moon's Ghost spoke off in sneering a sly smile at the two princesses for showing up now after all this time. The Royal Sisters were not so easily phase by the mockery. "Hey Fluttershy, remember that time you trapped me in a painting for all eternity?" Nightmare Moon's Ghost spoke off in recalling what this pony did to her a long whiles back when she was defeated by Fluttershy & got stuck in a portrait by Ghost Studies. "Ah yes. Good times." She remarked off with a sly sense of finding it funny about what happened to her in the past, when Fluttershy defeated her piloting a Discord robot fake and were turn into a portrait to be hung on a wall. "Oh, it...was?" Fluttershy responded in thinking things would be fine now, except... "Oh wait, you're being sarcastic?" She nervously stated in seeing, the villain was speaking rhetorically about being defeated & turn into a picture. "Hmph-hmph-hmph...Well guess what? I GOT OUT!" Nightmare Moon's Ghost chuckled under her breath, and shouted in frightful terror, of being able to get free from her portrait prison. "And as of right now, I'm painting the town red!" She issued off in what she's doing now while using a pun about painting from her escape, that she's mixing it up now. "MWuhahahaha..." The evil ghost went into another cackling moment to gloat over herself. "Then you admit to causing problems in Dark Moon Valley?" Celestia sternly spoke in wanting an answer from this vile ghostly enemy. "Admit to your crimes!" Luna issued sternly in wanting this former evil side of herself, to admit the truth now. "Yes, it was I that broke the Dark Moon!" Nightmare Moon's Ghost explained while the princesses hovered over with stern looks while Fluttershy was a bit nervous in staring at the evil villain's freaky expression. "For you see here, this power-enhancing jeweled crown of mine made it easy." Fluttershy & the Princesses saw the jeweled crown, that must be what caused the Dark Moon to shatter & cause all problems in the first place. "And now that all the ghosts of Dark Moon Valley are under my control...I believe its time to take my rightful place as the supreme ruler of your world! The World of Equestria, and be once again, bathed within Eternal Night." The evil villain explained her big plan to having all the ghost be at her command, and to follow her biding so that Nightmare Moon, can rule Equestria. "No...you...you can't!" Fluttershy spoke in horror, if Nightmare Moon gets away with that deed, then...they'll have no future is all she can think about. "She won't Fluttershy." Celestia spoke careful to the yellow pony to not give in so easily. "Not if we have anything to say for it!" Luna responded that for the Royal Sisters, they won't let such a big threat go scout free to carry out such evil. "Hm-hm-hm-hmmm...try to interfere, and pay the price for helping Fluttershy in a now desperate situation." Nightmare Moon's Ghost chuckled under her breath in giving fair warning to Celestia & Luna in what they'll be getting into by helping Fluttershy. "Yes, you, Fluttershy, that scientist Ghost Studies, the princesses, and all of your friends will look great hanging on the wall of my thrown room!" She declared off in imagining with a wicked thought in how enjoyable it'll be to hang live ponies trapped in portraits, for her to enjoy their eternal torture. "Aaaaaahahaha!..." She let off another evil cackle in seeing that nothing could stop her from doing as she pleases now, she's got the power she never had before. Suddenly, the crown on Nightmare Moon's head was glowing in absorbing a vase amount of energy as she was focusing on it. Fluttershy shook her head in really, REALLY not liking where this is going. "Stand strong Fluttershy!" Celestia encouraged the little pony to be brave here. "She's about to move!" Luna shouted off in also preparing herself for the worst. "WAh-hahahahaa..." Nightmare Moon laughed while continuing to focus more & more energy into her crown to power it up. "Oh my...is it over?" Fluttershy peeked out from covering her eyes with her front hooves, and only saw what was there happening... Soon the energy was completely done, as Nightmare Moon implodes it all around the area, much to Fluttershy & the Princesses shielding themselves from the light show. Once that was over, the entire area changed in the Paranormal Dimension, where the skies were blue with purple stripe lines, the yellow pegasus was still on the flat weirdly design floor square. But then blue electric fence liens came around the board to keep any and all that stood in this place, to stay & fight, and touching the electric ropes was not a good thing to do. "Now, let us get ready...TO RUMBLE!" Nightmare Moon roared out in preparing for her rematch against Fluttershy in a loud booming tone. "Remember my little pony, you are not alone." Celestia spoke to fly besides Fluttershy to insure her, she is not alone to fight this fight. "Really?" Fluttershy responded in feeling a bit less scared now. "You fought Nightmare Moon once by normal means, now under the situation, we too, shall offer to protect & help you defeat her." Luna responded that in the past, Fluttershy defeated Nightmare Moon's Ghost from that false mansion, but with the situation of an enhancing power jewel item with the villain, the Royal Sisters shall aid the pegasus to victory. "I...thank you, your highness." Fluttershy suddenly felt her courage return, she didn't need to fear, sure Nightmare Moon's Ghost is stronger now, but she has a greater power at her side; friends that you can count on, especially if they are Alicorn princesses with much magical might. It was now time, to begin what can be said as; The Final Showdown. Nightmare Moon started by slamming the ground and made a small wave out of the platform and Fluttershy jump in surprise. Luna spotted some shadows and quickly push herself and Fluttershy away. A spike ball roll pass them as Fluttershy nods a thanks to Luna. "How Sweet. To think we were the same pony." Nightmare Moon crack up. "Then would don't you try to fight then?" Celestia said and charge at her. Nightmare Moon was quick by moving into the air as the other watch. "What is doing?" Fluttershy ask. "Fluttershy! Luna! Move! She's right on top of you!" Celestia warn. "AGHHHH!" Fluttershy shouted as She and Luna jump away and Nightmare Moon hit the spot there were just on. The spike balls was fling into the air and Luna quickly whisper into Fluttershy ear a plan she thought of. Nightmare Moon started to fly to Fluttershy in hopes to caught her before taking down Celestia and Luna. Fluttershy lead Nightmare Moon to a dark shadow and shine her flashlight in her face. "AGH!" Nightmare Moon shouted as she cover her eyes with her wings. One of the Spike balls hit her head and she was daze. Fluttershy saw her health and was surprise that it was just 100. In her last battle with Nightmare Moon, she had 500, but it drop really fast, so could this be over really soon? Fluttershy didn't have time to think about it and started to suck Nightmare Moon up. However unlike the last fight, Nightmare Moon move into the air and slam down casing Fluttershy to lose her grip. Nightmare laugh and started to case Fluttershy again. Fluttershy was so surprise that Nightmare Moon broke free before she could catch her that she forgot about the spike balls that was fling in the air. Luna was quick, however, to shine a light on her evil self as she went over and shadow and was hit again. Fluttershy use the chance to suck up Nightmare Moon and this use her yanks to stop her from escaping. "GAaaughh!" Suddenly at this moment, the Ghost of Nightmare Moon was suck inside the Ghost Seeker. "Well done Fluttershy." Luna came over to congratulate the pony for capturing the evil ghost, and so quick too. "Indeed, you..." Celestia came near to almost compliment herself until... "Um, wait...something's wrong, the jewel's stuck. I can't..." Fluttershy noted with concerns, the jewel from the villain's crown was jamming the suction from being completed. "WAugh-hahaha!" Suddenly, Nightmare Moon poked herself out from the vacuum and was free. "Woooaugh! Oooohh?" Fluttershy yelped in seeing this, that wasn't suppose to happen when she captures a ghost successfully, and got worried when Nightmare Moon's ghost turn to her direction. "WAhahahaha...did you REALLY believe I fall so easily?" Nightmare Moon laugh off to look down at her foe's frighten mood in showing she escaped capture. "The professor stated his device should have improve on such error matters, yet how at this time?" Luna was utterly puzzled, the Ghost Seeker should have caught Nightmare Moon when she lost all her health, so why did it not succeed? "The jewel she holds, it's made her stronger to have more resistance than any ghost would have." Celestia issued to explain from understanding the power the villain wields was the very source to break the Dark Moon. "Ah-hahahaa!" Nightmare Moon soon jumped up into the air and smacked the edge of the floating platform that...tilted the area? "WOoohhh?" Fluttershy yelped from when the ground shifted downwards, plus her being on the edge going upwards. "Oh dear?" She yelped again while the Royal Sisters flew up, they all saw two sides of the flat square break off to more of a rectangle board. "Wohohohho, aaahhh?" Fluttershy made a yelp cry from herself slipping down from the shift in gravity. "Fluttershy!" Celestia & Luna cried out in seeing the pony about to fall...into a deep abyss. "WAAaughhh!" Fluttershy was about to brace herself, but instead of falling into the bottomless abyss, a front wooden structure of a mansion's window appeared. "Ohooowwww!" Suddenly, the pony went smashing through the window onto the wooden floor. "Ohhhh, what a landing!" Fluttershy moans from her landing, but was now inside what was like a mansion area now. It must be one-dimensional since it was flat small, but when entered, was long and wide. "GAh-ha-haaahhh, you're mine now!" Nightmare Moon cackled from hovering outside to get closer to the area her big threat went into. "Waaugh! Hugh!" Fluttershy snapped up to her hooves to stand. "WAh-hahahaha, prepare to feel the agony of...A CRUSHING DEFEAT!" Nightmare Moon cackled off in mentioning what she do, as she was glowing to cover herself in a large magical sphere dome outside the busted window. "Wauuuhaaaughhh!" Fluttershy yelped a bit from being spooked by seeing how larger the enemy was gonna go to flatten her. "Fluttershy, run!" Celestia's voice snapped the yellow pegasus back to her senses. No later did Fluttershy just decided to run from her spot without knowing what area she was in, but didn't care. Cause while she was alone in this area, what busted through the broken window was Nightmare Moon in a glowing ball form to roll in and flatten the poor pony. And Fluttershy could see outside the windows, she was still in the Paranormal Dimension, and that from the windows, she saw Celestia & Luna flying outside in following the yellow pegasus. "Oh me, oh my! I don't wanna get squashed or squished!" Fluttershy responded before coming across some nightstand tables and bookcases that the latter fell to almost block her path, but being able to use her wings again, she just flew over that. "Be careful Fluttershy, Nightmare Moon has set this dimension hall as an obstacle to catch you if you haste yourself." Luna spoke while Fluttershy nearly yelped from purple lightning almost striking from above, what was that about? "We cannot enter to aid you, but we can help guide you, watch what happens and go around anything in your escape route." Celestia explained this out while more lightning struck the dresses to open, almost cut Fluttershy's path off before she made quick detours to avoid them, and also pick up some bits along the way, but that's another story. "You can run, but you can't hide!" Nightmare Moon bellowed out from catching up to Fluttershy, as she duck from a chandelier to run, and soon came across a springy springboard on the ground. "Wauh..Waaugh-Waaaugh!" Fluttershy was springing across one spring trap to another until she got further away from who was chasing her before finding herself arrived at a location of a new hall entry. Soon Fluttershy went in, followed by the Royal Sisters watching from the windows while Nightmare Moon was, well...on a roll, sorta speak. But now the room was filled with floors that when purple lightning hit, make wood become...snow? "Fluttershy, avoid the snow, they'll drag your hooves down." Celestia issued a warning to the pony in watching out for those deep snow piles. Course Fluttershy was avoiding up, down, middle, split turn seconds with as much speed as she could while outrunning Nightmare Moon. "Beware the falling pillars, young pony!" Luna issued from where Fluttershy had to watch a fallen pillar, blocked her route, so she had to quickly back step to go another free way. Finally, Fluttershy managed to escape another obstacle course challenge while Nightmare Moon still was gaining her glowing sphere that surround her to flatten anything, or anyone unfortunate to get near. "Oh no...stairs, and I remember these could be tricky ones!" Fluttershy yelped in running towards two stair ways leading up, but which was right & not a setup trap? "Take the right closer to me Fluttershy, we sense tricky from the left." Celestia issued to seeing normal flames on the right while the other had blue flames to make the stunt trick work. With much thanks, the yellow pony went up one stairs with the right flame color without a problem, and came down the next flat of stairs. "Beware below, more snow piles of much sturdier bunch are ahead." Luna forewarn Fluttershy, as she was running pass left & right against the little piles of snow. "Come back here!" Nightmare Moon roared out from chasing her prey, as Fluttershy went pass some knight suits with flame axes covered in webbing, and ran towards a springboard on the ground near a desk & window. "Oh my, how do I get out of this...ISSshhh?" Fluttershy almost asked, but from stepping on the springboard, shot her out of the window. Lucky thing too, cause soon Nightmare Moon came in and crushed things. But where was our hero now? "Waaugh-Uugh? WAugh, AAaugh...?" Fluttershy yelped from walking across a field and rolled across before standing in an upright knee position. During the moment, the flat wooden room with the window the pony escape from, flew down and vanished. "Huuagh?" Fluttershy turned around in seeing where she came from, & soon the Royal Sisters join her side. "WAH-Hahahahaaaahhh!" Soon bursting from that wooden mansion dimension was none other then Nightmare Moon herself, laughing it out. "Waaughah!" Fluttershy yelped in shock when Nightmare Moon's ghost appeared on the same platform they were on, which another round of electric rope lines came up to keep any from leaving so easily or to not touch the lines on the edges. "Stand strong Fluttershy." Luna told the pony to not be scared, they are here to help. "We're about to go into battle once more." Celestia issued in being ready for whatever comes next. "Ri...right!" Fluttershy slowly responded to get her game face on now. And soon, the second round begins. Nightmare Moon smile and said, "How about making this more fun?" and disappear. The gem floated in the area outside of the area and Nightmare Moon floated over to it. As soon as it went on her head, six purple lighting bolts struck the corners and replace them with...snow? Then Nightmare Moon move on the field ready to fight again. She try to charge at the group, but they quickly slit up and Nightmare Moon once again case Fluttershy. After a few seconds, Nightmare Moon rise to the sky and drop down to make shadows appear. This time Celestia was able to shine a light in Nightmare Moon to make her stay in the shadow and get hit with one of the spike balls. Fluttershy started to suck her up and this time the field started to tilt when Fluttershy move. Unlike last time, Fluttershy use her yanks to stop Nightmare Moon from rising up. "GAaaughh!" Suddenly at this moment, the Ghost of Nightmare Moon was suck inside the Ghost Seeker. "Did it work?" Celestia asked in hoping they caught the ghost in charge. "I'm unsure sister." Luna responded in being unsure if this work this time. "Um, wait...something's wrong, the jewel's stuck again. I can't..." Fluttershy noted with concerns, the jewel from the villain's crown was jamming the suction from being completed, again "WAugh-hahaha!" Suddenly, Nightmare Moon poked herself out from the vacuum once more and was freed again. "Woooaugh! Oooohh!" Fluttershy yelped in seeing this with worry, the plan failed again and now Nightmare Moon's ghost turn to her direction. "WAhahahaha...try all you like, you'll not have me again!" Nightmare Moon laugh off to look down at her foe's frighten mood in showing she escaped capture. "We mustn't give up." Celestia issued with a serious face, they can't give up now when they are almost close to victory. "She must be weakening from that second time." Luna insisted that from hurting this evil ghost, her durability to withstand being sucked in won't keep helping her out much longer. "Ah-hahahaa!" Nightmare Moon soon jumped up into the air and smacked the edge of the floating platform that...tilted the area. "WOoohhh?" Fluttershy yelped from when the ground shifted downwards, plus her being on the edge going upwards. "Oh dear, again?" She yelped again while the Royal Sisters flew up, they all saw two sides of the flat square break off to more of a rectangle board. "Wohohohho, aaahhh?" Fluttershy made a yelp cry from herself slipping down from the shift in gravity. "WAAaughhh!" Fluttershy was about to brace herself, but instead of falling into the bottomless abyss, a front wooden structure of a mansion's window appeared. "Ohooowwww!" Suddenly, the pony went smashing through the window onto the wooden floor. "Ohhhh, what a landing." Fluttershy moans from her landing, but was now inside what was like a mansion area now. It must be one-dimensional since it was flat small but when entered, was long and wide. "GAh-ha-haaahhh, you're here again!" Nightmare Moon cackled from hovering outside to get closer to the area her big threat went into. "Waaugh! Hugh!" Fluttershy snapped up to her hooves to stand up now. "WAh-hahahaha, now prepare to be...FLATTEN!" Nightmare Moon cackled off in mentioning what she do, as she was glowing to cover herself in a large magical sphere dome outside the busted window. "Wauuuhaaaughhh?" Fluttershy yelped a bit from seeing her enemy gonna try the same stunt again. Now Fluttershy was running through the hall with a rolling enemy on her tail. But what should be in the way then some knight suits of armor with lit torches. As she was making her way around the armors... "Fluttershy, watch out!" Celestia called out, as one armor moved to almost hack at the poor pony. "Beware of the knights!" Luna also cried out for two knights in the sides moved to almost strike the poor fleeing pony. "Eek!" Fluttershy just barely managed to dodge that bullet & ran across the hall into a darken area while Nightmare Moon was still behind. "Fluttershy, shine your light!" Celestia issued from her side of the window. "You must reveal what hinds in the dark." Luna instructed from her side in what the pony needs to do. "Al...alright!" Fluttershy responded to let her flashlight face up, as she soon saw what she was heading towards. With the light, Fluttershy was brave, but the purple lightning storm spooked her, but she didn't quit. She pass a hidden night stand, a snow pile on the floor, collected some extra bits, and triggered a springboard near a blocked dresser wall. "WOooh!" Fluttershy flew, and landed afar, she ran until another blockade of dressers were there, but she triggered another springboard. "Woooh!" She yelped again to fly across, but used her wings to glade down a bit. "You won't escape, the darkness is my own field, you'll fall, and be mine." Nightmare Moon spoke from continuing her chase after Fluttershy across more hallway windows while the Royal Sisters glared at the evil enemy. Now Fluttershy entered a new room filled with tall ice boards blocking a pony path, but only one entry was see around them. "Fluttershy, you must be careful, this room is a slippery one." Celestia warn her friend that climbed up a stair path while Nightmare Moon was gaining. "WAaaughh!" Fluttershy yelped from going over a tricky flank of steps that let the pony slide down across the icy floor, & while doing so, collected bits along the way. "Not what we had in mind, but good enough, now hurry!" Luna responded in watching that action happen & insisted Fluttershy keeps moving. Fluttershy continues to run with Nightmare Moon gaining. But in the next room, lightning struck dresser stands to cut off the pony's path before making detours. But from looking pass one stand, she found a springboard trigger to go over some snow, so with the chances as they are, she took them. "Woooh?" Fluttershy touched the spring board to shot over and onto a little stair stand. "Eeeyiiihh!" She yelped in fear, cause she ran when Nightmare Moon was rolling in, crushing what she was on. "Be careful of more armor knights!" Celestia warned Fluttershy, as lightning struck the armor suits to take a swing at the center pony taker. "They shall try to cut your path you take." Luna issued this to Fluttershy, as she tried to push her speed to avoid getting chop to bits. "You won't escape!" Nightmare Moon roared out from chasing her prey, as Fluttershy ran towards a messy area with a springboard on the ground near some ruined furniture & window. "Well if this is my only way, then fine...IIEEeennn!" Fluttershy was about to say in seeing this picture, but from stepping on the springboard, shot her out of the window. Lucky thing again, cause soon Nightmare Moon came in and crushed things. And where was our hero this time? "Waaugh-Uugh! WAugh, AAaugh..." Fluttershy yelped from walking across a familiar field and rolled across before standing in an upright knee position. During the moment, the flat wooden room with the window the pony escape from, flew down and vanished. "Huuagh?" Fluttershy turned around in seeing where she came from after her escape, & soon the Royal Sisters join her side after doing so. "WAH-Hahahahaaaahhh!" Soon bursting from that wooden mansion dimension was none other then Nightmare Moon herself, laughing it out. "Waaughah?" Fluttershy yelped in shock when Nightmare Moon's ghost appeared on the same platform they were on, which another round of electric rope lines came up to keep any from leaving so easily or to not touch the lines on the edges. "Here we go again Luna." Celestia spoke in preparing themselves for another fight matter with the ghost manipulator in charge of things. "Fear not sister, we won't lose. Lady Fluttershy?" Luna responded in having the same determination, and turn to the pony that was just recovering another escape from getting crushed. "I...gulp...am ready!" Fluttershy swallowed some of her fears to respond in being capable of ready to fight another round with Nightmare Moon's Ghost. Now here was about to come round three of this conflict, question would be...will it be the Final Round? Nightmare Moon disappear again and one more the gem appear in the air and Nightmare Moon floated up to it. Then the whole area was glowing. "We have to move!" Luna shouted. Fluttershy spotted a part that was not glowing and quickly flew to it. Celestia and Luna follow. Then lighting bolts struck the area but thanks to the open spot, the attack missing them completely. Nightmare Moon disappear again a try the same attack. They move to a new spot and dodge the attack. At the third time, crack ice and some spikes appear on the floor showing not to step in them. Nightmare Moon chase Fluttershy again, after a bit she stomp on the ground and Fluttershy move around and spotted a shadow. After get Nightmare Moon to the spot, All three of them shine a light on her. She was hit and Fluttershy started to suck her up again. A few times Nightmare Moon try to rise up, but Fluttershy yank back. She even let herself get drag to move away from the spike floor. Finally, as the chips were nearly down, Fluttershy filled up the Ghost Seeker at full capacity, and pulled Nightmare Moon in when she was on her last bit of health. "Nooo...Nooo...THIS CAN'T BE! How could I Lose TWICE!" Nightmare Moon cried out in struggling to grab the floor to stop herself from getting sucked in completely. "I can't be defeated, I won't let you!" She turned around to prepare a spell from her horn, she won't be defeated by this shy, frighten, nerve-wrecking pegasus pony again...if she goes down, she'll take Fluttershy before then. "You've lost this round, Nightmare Moon." Celestia spoke from appearing near one side of the evil ghost struggling Fluttershy's pulling work. "And now, to be rid of my old self for good." Luna declared with a serious tone, as she wants to rid of this evil side of her past from her sight. Soon the Royal Sisters used their mighty magic from their horns, the energy surrounded Fluttershy to give her more strength to pull the nozzle at her fullest of full capacity to the MAX! And from this grand power-up, even the mighty Nightmare Moon was losing her hoof grip on the ground to getting sucked in. "NOT AGAAAAIN!...NOOOOoouuAAAaaaghhhh!" Nightmare Moon struggled to escape with a loudest of screams, but this time felt herself getting sucked further in the Ghost Seeker until...she was sucked all the way and no crown plugged the vacuum top. "Is she...?" Fluttershy responded a bit surprise, did she just captured the most dangerous ghost of all over again. "Well done Fluttershy." Celestia nods with a smiling approval on this task completed. "Indeed, you've recaptured Nightmare Moon again." Luna smiled to nod for the pony's wonderful deed. "Oh my...um, your highnesses, I hate to ruin the moment but, the Ghost Seeker is acting up again." Fluttershy spoke with caution, as she once again, saw her vacuum letting off purple sparks from sucking in a ghost, but instead of a Dark Moon piece in a Possessor, it's Nightmare Moon. So why is this happening? "The same from the Dark Moon pieces?" Celestia responded a bit curious, this was the action seen from the other five times. "But they are all accounted for except...the other jewel?" Luna suddenly gasped in surprise, they forgot about the jewel off Nightmare Moon's crown. Then from another implosion of smoke, a gem was shot off while the ponies were pushed back, well maybe just Fluttershy alone. And soon what landed in the paranormal dimension's field, was the power-enhancing gem. Once the Royal Sisters helped Fluttershy up, they began to walk over to where the gem lay rest upon, as it sparkled from its use of magical power, but soon the glow cease and looked like a regular gem. "Is that...what Nightmare Moon was using the whole time?" Fluttershy asked amazed by the gem left behind, Rarity would almost certain be astounded by this rare gem. "Yes, a power-enhancing gem, no wonder the Dark Moon shattered, this explains it all." Luna nods firmly in seeing the gem that gave the evil ghost the power to cause trouble in Dark Moon Valley to begin with. "Go on Fluttershy, accept your token of this victory." Celestia smiled to tell Fluttershy to take the gem that lay there. "Oh I don't know, I mean...no disrespect? But I already helped try to collect the Dark Moon pieces, and now that that's over, maybe this should be yours?" Fluttershy was a bit shy in thinking she should take claim of such a prize from the biggest enemy in Equestria, the Royal Princesses were a major help in this case too, maybe one of them should take it. "Your kindness is recognized, but we see that while we aided you, you the one to triumph in the end, was your will to never give up." Luna spoke in being honored by such kind honestly, but they know for certain, that Fluttershy was the pony that worked the hardest here. "Luna is right, you have done well facing the hardships, now you can speak with relief, that you have done well in helping us all." Celestia nods with a proud expression that they are pleased by how much Fluttershy has done for them all over such obstacles. "Gosh...?" Fluttershy looked away in almost blushing from such compliments. "So go, accept the gem as your prize." Luna waved off her wing in the direction of the gem on the ground. "May it forever remind you of this victory." Celestia smiled to proudly state that this gem will symbolize how Fluttershy defeated Nightmare Moon's ghost a second time. Without another second, Fluttershy approached & picked up the gem to study it. "Ohhh...how beautiful?" Fluttershy 'awe' at the jewel, it was a true beauty among beautiful gems she's ever collected from the rest. "Wooh-hoo! Yes! We've actually did it! We've won!" Fluttershy jumped up in the air with her wings, and began to make a little dance of joy, much to Celestia & Luna smiling at how happy the pony was. "I can't believe I did it all? I did it!" Fluttershy soon held up the gem in her right hoof for all to see the very item used by the ghost of Nightmare Moon. Soon Fluttershy puts away the gem to clap her hooves together for a proud and well done job here, all's well that ends well. But then something began to happen. "Wooh?" Fluttershy yelped in seeing the sparks from the electric lines around this fighting platform were sparkling out of out. "Uh oh? This might be bad?" She looked worried, unsure if this would end pretty bad, or just won't be pretty. Soon a bright light flashed that blinded Fluttershy, Celestia & Luna for a brief moment. Then once the light show ended, did the scene show that they had appeared somewhere else. From Fluttershy's nervous sounding voice, she wondered where they were, but the ponies saw that they was not the Paranormal Dimension that's home to the ghost. Instead, they were now back on the Treacherous Mansion on the Terrance area in question. "We'll back at the at the Terrance!" Fluttershy said. "And the portal is close." Luna said as she look at it. "It seems that beating Nightmare Moon, close the portal and remove us from the Paranormal Dimension." Celestia said. "Indeed!" said a voice they all knew. They turn and saw Ghost Studies who appear with the rest of the Mane Six. They jump on Fluttershy and hug her. "Twilight teleportation made not be as strong as yours, but it got the job done on bring us here." Ghost Studies explain their un-ask question. "Did you get her?" Rainbow ask. Fluttershy give her back a little shake and a muff voice was heard, but it was enough to tell that Nightmare Moon was beaten again. "And now one last thing to do." Ghost Studies said and nods towards Twilight. Twilight nods back and soon cast her spell. A bright flash appear and the CMC's and Spike appear each hold a Dark Moon Piece, but Spike was holding two. The CMC's give a Dark Moon piece to their sisters/idol/friend as Spike give a piece to Twilight and Fluttershy. Fluttershy and her friends look at each other and nods. They soon stood around each other and held the Dark Moon Pieces towards each other. They watch as the Pieces floated and then form together to make a full crescent purple moon. The true shape of the Dark Moon. Fluttershy watch as it grew a bit and flew into the air, hearing a faint, "Thank You" as it did. Everypony watch as the Dark Moon return to it spot and light out a purple glow that move around Dark Moon Valley. Inside the Vault, all the ghost that were caught was turn back to normal. At first they were confuse, but then cheer happily that they were back to normal. They flew around hugging each other. In the Secret Mines, an Greenie, that was luck to get away from Fluttershy, Sudden when back to normal as well. He look around before shivering in the cold...Can ghost even get cold? Don't answer that. At the Haunted Towers, A Slammer had a Greenie in his mouth when they too turn back to normal. He remove the Greenie from his mouth and hug him. Back at the Terrance, Fluttershy and her friends watch as the Dark Moon finish it job and the glow fade. "Well, all the ghost are back to normal and now I can release the ones that are caught." Ghost Studies said and pull out a remote that had two switches on it. He press the one with the Greenie on it and all the Ghosts inside the Vault were release. They flew to the Mansion and started to fly around the ponies. A Possessor flew around carrying the CMC's with Spike chase them. Some Greenie was tossing Ghost Studies in the air glad their friend save them. A few Slammer to show off to Rarity and soon started to fight along each other earning a laugh from Rarity. A flew Hiders started to play with Pinkie Pie in a quick game of hide and seek. With a few Sneakers joining in. A few other ones was messing with Applejack by taking her hat and had Applejack them with her laughing the whole time. A few more Greenie flew around Twilight and pick her up give her a ride in the air. Fluttershy and the Princesses watch as they had fun with the now friendly ghosts, when she heard a small whine. Fluttershy turn and saw the ghost puppy looking really sad. Fluttershy knew it was lonely. "Hi, boy...or are you a girl? Doesn't matter." Fluttershy said and the Ghost Puppy jump in her hooves and lick her. Fluttershy smile and turn to Celestia and Luna who bow to her. "Lady Fluttershy, as of this day you are indeed the Number one Ghost Hunter of Ponyville." Luna said. "And this adventure will never be forgotten." Celestia added. "Thank you." Fluttershy said then saw a Greenie appear with a camera. Before she could ask what it was doing all her friends and the Ghost surround her. Fluttershy look around before smiling. "OK!" she said as everyone jump as the picture was snap.
