//------------------------------// // Act 2 part 4 Ponyville // Story: Midieval Darkness // by Lady Maria //------------------------------// As we warped back to the main town we decided to go upgrade and buy needed items to continue our journey. I went back to the blacksmith shop to visit Onifex and forge new weapons. As I entered the shop and walked up to her. We chatted for a bit before we went to forge my new weapons. I looked at the weapons I could craft with the souls I had. I eventually crafted the abyssalite great axe, Death's scythe and, Ki's scythe. After I crafted the weapons I reinforced them to plus 5. I walked out of the shop and went to the town bonfire. I rested there and leveled up a lot! I was about level 50 when I last leveled and now I'm about Level 125 these are my stats! strength: 50 endurance: 20 vitality: 35 resistance: 20 intelligence: 10 faith:10 I walked away from the bonfire and gathered up the others as we headed east to our next destination. As we walked on a path I stopped as I though I heard something. Then what looked like 10 or so gang members jumped out of the bushes. I looked around for Ornstein and Smough but they were no where to be seen. "Well well well what do we have here? A bunch of gay ponies and a scrub newbie!" The middle one who was apparently the leader said. "And who might you be punk?" I asked as I equipped my strongest weapon Ki's scythe. They were shocked to see the weapon I was holding. "H-how did you get that?!" The leader asked. "Oh I just kicked the super boss Ki's ass." I said casually. "There is no way you did that! Someone must have given you that!" A gang member said. "No I killed Ki with Ceronos." I said as they scoffed. "Now I know you are lying! If you've killed Ki show us the hilt and handle you got from him!" The leader said. I then pulled out the handle of Ceronos and equipped it. I Held the handle up for them to see. "Here is your proof assholes now leave!" I say as I glare at them. "Fine but we want to know one thing..." The leader said. "Fine what is it?" I asked narrowing my eyes at him. "What is your name?" He asked. "My name? My name is Gabriel... What is yours?" I asked sheathing my sword and putting away the hilt of Ceronos. "Garble. And this wont be the last time we see each other!" The gang leader yelled before fleeing into the bush next to us. I scoffed and walked foward with the others to our next destination! As we came to a clearing and out of the semi forest like landscape we came upon a ruined town. It was scorched to the ground and, the ground was covered in ash. As we walked into the town I smelled recently burned flesh. I gagged at the smell as we walked over to the only non-destroyed and, untouched building. A hollowed out tree with windows a balcony and, a small door way that I could just fit through without having to slouch or bend over. As we were about 200 feet from the building a huge dragon about the size of The Lone Dragon Elizan with chard black and somewhat purple scales and green eyes. The dragon stared us down for several moments before asking... "Who are you?" He bellowed in a deep tone of voice. "My name is Gabriel. What is yours?" I said and, asked in response. "I am called many names. The king of dragons, The protector of the lands, The dragon lord, or my original name... Spike." Spike said looking at the six mares that he thought looked somewhat familiar but couldn't quite remember clearly. My mind churned before snapping into place and remembering who he was exactly. "So spike huh? Do you remember these six mares?" I asked pointing in their direction. "I cant say I do.They look familiar though. It feels like I know them..." He said narrowing his eyes at them. "Spike its us! You know Apple Jack, Fluttershy, Pinkie pie, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, and myself your mother Twilight!" Twilight said almost running towards him but I stopped her from going any farther. Spike narrowed his eyes even more before bellowing, "No you can't be them they died thousands of years ago at the hands of that bastard Oblivion the abyss lord!" "No its us! We were brought back by him!" Twilight shouted in tears. "You changelings shall bother me no longer!" Spike said before getting up and a health bar showed itself in front of me, then a bar of heath showed up. Spike the dragon lord hp 200,000 As Spike got up I put away my shield and scythe then equipped my strongest slash weapon the great axe/ butcher knife of the abyssalite golem. I then charged at him along side Ornstein and Smough. Ornstein used his lightning bolts to peal off a patch of Spike's scales and stabbed him several times while I built up speed and slid under his belly and cut through it several times. Spike roared in pain as he took in a huge breath and breathed fire at us. I looked around for the main six but they were nowhere to be seen. I then heard what sounded like a huge blast of magic as I looked up and saw a huge rainbow beam hit spike taking about 50,000 hp out. Spike was now down to about 90,000 hp. I took this in and reminded myself never to be hit by the elements of harmony. I then equipped my best ultra great sword and started slashing at Spike's legs. We all through a barrage of attacks at him before his body dissipated in a flash of light leaving spike looking like a teenager like myself. He shook his head before looking at us. Then falling over and, fell unconscious.
