//------------------------------// // Showdown with Onaga and Zelarfar // Story: Nyx's Redemption // by MaskedPony //------------------------------// “Well, looks like you two made it.” Onaga said as he laughed evilly. Nyx then try to approach Onaga, but only to be grabbed by Onagas dragon magic. As Tex saw this, she immediately charged at Onaga and knocked his grab off of Nyx. As he recovered, he became very agnry and then disappeared. At that moment, a bunch of Onagas appeared out of nowhere. At this moment Nyx, Dark Nyx, Blaze, and Tex began their fight.  Dark Nyx and Nyx began to fight together and use their magic to fight the clones, while Blaze and Onag attack the other clones. “Try to find me you foals.’ Onaga taunted. At that point, Nyx knew which one it was and striked the real Onaga with magic a couple of times, and he disappeared. More clones appeared and they began to fight with all their might. “Ugh, how can Onaga duplicate himself?” Nyx asked. “Onaga has the power to duplicate, certain dragons have magical powers.” Throw out the battle Nyx, and Dark Nyx combined their magic to wipe more of the clones out, while Tex used her telekinesis ability to bring the clones to Blaze to wipe out.  As they began to clear the clones, Nyx began to attack the real one rapidly with Dark Nyx. At that point, Onaga teleported to the center of the vault and Nyx attacked him and he fell back. But, all of a sudden, Nyx was zapped by magic and was hovering in the air, and the equestrian emeralds went into small holes around the vault “AGGGGGGHHHHH” Nyx screamed. “You are too late Fools. I win. The vualt is now opening, and Zelarfar is mine to control.” At that point, Nyx and the Equestrian emeralds were launched back and Nyx was laying on the ground. At that point, a being emerged from the ground, and rose in the air. To Blaze, and Tex, it looked like a xenomorph but mixed with different creatures. At that point, The equestrian emeralds began to glow. They then began to hover in the air and flew out of the cavern. Plee to Equestria In ponyville, Ponies were roaming the streets and Spike was to, and even Diamond Tiara. But, at that moment, a thing came down from the sky in front of them. “Hmm, what is this?” One pony said. “.....! No, Nyx is in trouble.” Spike said. At that point, they are gasped as they saw what stood before Nyx. It was Zelarfar, the one from the old history of Equestria. “Come on Nyx, fight!” Lyra said. “Lyra, what are you doing?” “It’s saying Nyx needs help.” At that point, Silver smacked Diamond. “Are you crazy! Nyx is in danger! If she dies, we are doomed.” At this point, alot of ponies were sending their wishes to Nyx and were trying their best to help. In Canterlot,  an emerald went into town square, and Twilight Velvet saw it, and began to send her prayers to Nyx, and so were other ponies, even the royal guards who remained in Canterlot. Through out Equestria, Emeralds were going to different parts of Equestria, even to the Crystal Empire, where Cadence and shining and others, even Flash were sending their prayers also. Outside the cave, Twilight, Lunar, the royal guard, Celestia, Luna, and Discord were sending their prayers to Nyx to help her fight. The fate of Equestria in the vault of Zelarfar, a whole bunch of ponies voices are being heard and were mentioning Nyx’s name. Onaga, and Blaze were shocked to learn the emeralds had this type of power. As many more voices came, the emeralds came flying back to Nyx, and out of nowhere Nyx got up and looked at Onaga, with a rage look, as the emeralds were activating its power on both Nyx and Dark Nyx. “I had enough, Zelarfar, eliminate these two!” Onaga commanded and he through a bunch of rubble at Blaze knocking him to the ground, which lead Tex to fight Onaga while Nyx and Dark Nyx handle Zelarfar. At that point, they began fighting Zelarfar, as they fought, they dodged every attack. As they battled, Dark Nyx and Nyx used their magic against Zelarfar, which was helping. It then breathed fire, and they dodged it. As the battle went on Onaga was furious as he was holding a wound. As they continued the fight, they were close, at that moment, they struck Zelarfar, and it let out a scream, and was falling to the ground. “No, this can’t be happening. This can not be happening!” Onaga screamed as Zelarfar exploded in front of him causing him to be fatfulling wounded. Nyx and Dark Nyx landed on the ground and looked at Onaga who got up and looked at Nyx, Dark Nyx and Tex. “No no no I can’t die like this. Not when I’m so close, and not at the hoofs, of a filthy foal. I-I-I-I could of save this country. I could of restored order. And I wasn’t supposed to die, by the hoofs, OF A PEACE KILLING PSYCHOPATH! You’re a savage, you’re A MANIAC, YOU’RE A FOAL, AND I AM A CELESTIA DANG HERO! ZELARFAR WAS PRACTICALLY A GOD, HOW, HOW THE TARTARUS HAVE YOU KILLED ZELARFAR!? You idiots, Zelarfar could of bought peace to this country, no more criminals, no more dangers, Equestria, it could of been a paradise.” At this point Tex looked at Nyx. “This is it Nyx, you either end him, or I end him for you, what is it going to be?” At this point, Nyx then recalled that Celestia said she has the right to end Onaga. Nyx then charged her magic and shot Onaga and he fell back and lied on the ground motionless, dead. At that point they ran to Blaze who was lying on the ground. He looked real weak. “I’m going to help you.” Tex said. “No…..No.” “We are not leaving you behind.” “I won’t make it……. Go…...Zelarfar is dead. Tell Spike I’m s...orrry.” At that point, Blaze then fell on his back. Blaze had died to to massive injuries. To Nyx, she never saw an innocent dragon die, and she knew Blaze died as a hero. But as it was all sudden, the ground started to shake and rocks from the ceiling began to fall. “Hop on, I will get us out.” Tex shouted Nyx and Dark Nyx nodded and they hopped on. At that point, Tex then started to fly fast. As she was flying fast the two were holding onto her the whole time. They were praying that they won’t get trapped in the cave alive. As Tex flew, she was avoiding everything that was falling down from the ceiling of the cave. At that point, the reached the cave entrance and flew out and landed in front. As they turned they saw the cave entrance collapse. Nyx and Dark Nyx then hopped off of Tex and looked at eachother. “We did it… we won.” Nyx said. “MOM!” At that point, Dark Nyx flank began to glow and everybody stared. Something was happening. At that point there was a flash. After the flash cleared, Dark Nyx looked and saw what shocked her. On her flank, was a Cutie mark of a sword in the same color as Nyx’s cutie mark. “What the? What does this Cutie Mark mean?” Dark Nyx said. At that point, Twilight then recalled that one day. The day when the everfree forest creatures were attacking Ponyville. During that time, Nyx, who was Nightmare Moon II defended the town from the everfree monsters and surrendered to protect the people of Ponyville. It wasn’t until Nyx’s trial when she received her Cutie Mark. “It means you are taking up your hoofs and fighting for what’s right for not only to fight for those who you love, but to fight for Equestria in what ever strategic way you can.” Twilight said Celestia then nodded and saw Nyx hugging Dark Nyx. She then began to think. Her original plan was to take Dark Nyx away due to being created by Onaga, however, seeing how much Nyx likes her, she knew that she can’t take her away. She knew she fought to save all of Equestria. “Twilight, I made my mind.” Celestia said. “Since Dark Nyx is Nyx’s biological sister through blood, and she helped us fight Onaga, I have decided. I hereby pronounce you as Dark Nyx’s mother, Lunar as her father, and pronounce Nyx as Dark Nyx’s sister.” With that, they decided to head back to Canterlot. for the past days, Nyx couldn’t believe all of what happened. But, now, she had a feeling something great was going to happened. But, that was for another day.
