Phantom War II: Corruption Spreads

by Danny Eclipse


The Vision of Fate

Shortly after the feast…

I had arrived to my bedroom that night, happy to know that all the loose ends of the NLR were finally been dealt with. Now, I could return to Equestria as a Hero, achieving something that my brother, Charming Thunder, had failed to achieve. I turned off the light and become comfy to my bed. I fell asleep into peaceful dreams a few minutes later…


I opened my eyes inside the dreamscape, looking around to see my mysterious place. I looked around, trying to find out where I was. I finally realized that I was on a mysterious platform on some sort of building. Figures began to form and I knew them. There was me, Charming Thunder, and the Mane 6 with their elements! Also, Charming was wearing the Medallion of Primus! My dream self was in his Dark Super Form that I had achieved in that Battle of Doom Day. Charming was different was well, he was white with Alicorn Wings and he whiteness in his eyes was blue while his pupils were white. He had his Lightsaber and so did my vision self. We were both Alicorns, our medallions glowing with power.

Danny said “So, you managed to defeated Brutalight and her crew, but they will forever be inside them Charming! You know that evil will forever be there, never stopping!”

Charming begged “Brother, this madness must end!”

Danny shouted back “Never!!”

Charming told Danny “There is still good within you Danny! I won’t give up on you!!”

Twilight said “Danny, return to the light!”

Danny yelled out with all of his might “NEVER!!! I AM THE DOMINATOR!!! I AM THE CONQUERER!!! I! AM!! DANNY!!! ECLIPSE!!!!”

Danny charged at Charming. Their lightsabers met and they slashed at each other. Danny slashed and slashed, not giving up. Charming was being pushed back by the forces of those slashes. Danny wasn’t stopping, he was smiling like a mad man. When Danny did one more slash, Charming was send back, losing his lightsaber. Danny went and pinned him to the ground. I was standing on my back hooves and 1 of my lightsabers, my right lightsaber, was in front of your face.

Danny said “Now I will destroy you Charming, like how I destroyed Sunset Shimmer.”

Charming yelled “NO!!!”

Charming used his levitation spell and his lightsaber returned to his hoof and he swung at my lightsaber, knocking me away from you as you get up. Charming Thunder was instantly consumed by his hatred, ignoring the pleas of his friends, and he recklessly charged at Danny. We clashed blades, not giving an inch up. They began to slash at each other, countering blow-to-blow. Charming got into a distance and shot red lightning at Danny, but Danny blocked it with his lightsaber and send purple light back at Charming, which shocked him. Charming was unable to act now and Danny took that chance. He jumped in front of Charming and slash down at him, making Charming loose balance and fall to the ground. Danny kicked him a few inches away and began to slowly walk towards him. Charming got up and reactivated his lightsaber. They clashed blows again but Charming was a bit dazed, but that didn’t slow him down. Danny jumped and got behind Charming and they clashed again. However, Charming was grabbed by the head from Danny and he threw Charming to the sky, which Charming hit a TIE Fighter by accident and made him fall a few feet to another platform, which Danny jumped down to. Danny charged, lightsaber ready to strike. Charming got back up and they clashed lightsabers again. But this time, Charming was striking at him. However, it was short lived when Danny blocked the strikes and use a minor force push to make Charming loose lightsaber control and Danny took the chance and cut Charming’s robotic hoof off. Charming fell to the floor, clearly in pain.

Danny said, confident than ever “Now, to finish what you had started…”

I was stopped when Twilight had jumped down to the platform. I looked at her and the Mane 6 came down. They began to charge but I force gripped them, holding them in place.

Danny said “Did you really think you had a chance?”

I was launched forward and looked through the smoke to see Charming had regained his senses from the Dark Side. The Mane 6 was with him now, happy to see him normal again.

Danny said, impressed “So, still standing from my attack. No matter, you can’t fight without your lightsaber.”

I slowly began to walk over to them but Charming put a shield up. I laughed but stopped when I felt an energy surge and looked at the source. The Elements of Harmony were around the necks of the Mane 6, getting ready to fire. My eyes narrowed and I slashed at the shield, scattering it.

Danny yelled “NO!!!”

Danny used Force Storm on them, shocking them. They fell to the ground in pain. Charming, who witness it, roared with anger. But he couldn’t do anything. I was about to strike down on Charming until blue mist escaped my lips.

Danny said, knowing what it was “You’re joking, right?”

I turned around and see Sombra’s ghost. He wasn’t alone either; he was with the Jedi Spirits.

Sombra said “We won’t let you do this Danny…”

Danny replied darkly “Like you can stop me, Father.”

Yodi said “Alone, he is not. Outmatch, you are.”

Danny laughs evilly, clearly not amused.

Danny said “You, against me!? 1 question for you. Have you ever considered how I got my training!?”

Suddenly, 4 spirits appeared and it were my Sith Mentors, they were smiling at the sight of the 4 Jedi Spirits.

Anakin said darkly “Count Dooku…”

Dooku greeted back “Hello again Anakin, Obi-Wan, Master Yodi, and my old Padawan; Qui-Gon.”

Obi-Wan said, hateful “Hello Dooku.”

Starkiller said “Hello Darth Vader…”

Anakin replied “Starkiller…”

Sidious said, crackling evilly a bit “Hello, my little green friend.”

Yodi replied “Darth Sidious…”

Revan said, a bit sad “Too bad no one here is my old enemy.”

Yodi said “Darth Revan, are you not?”

Revan reassured himself “At least I wasn’t forgotten by the Jedi Counsel.”

Danny said, harshly “Are we done with the meet and greet?”

They looked at each other, drawing out their ghostly lightsabers. They charged at each other. Anakin vs. Starkiller, Obi-Wan vs. Dooku, Qui-Gon vs. Revan, and Yodi vs. Sidious. Sombra came over to Danny, ready to attack.

Danny said “Please…You are nothing to me. Handle him, why don’t you Nightmare.”

Suddenly, Nightmare Moon had appeared in front of Danny. She was eager to fight Sombra, reasons were her own. They clashed blades that were certain.

Danny said “Now, where was I-?”

Danny sees that during the commotion, The Mane 6 was back up and had finished charging their Elements. They fired the Friendship Rainbow at me and it hit me directly.

Danny yelled “NNNNNOOOOOOO!!!”

The Rainbow consumed Danny and a bright white flashed happened, blinding me from what was happening.


I screamed out in my bed. I looked around, it was morning. I was sweating a lot and my medallion was glowing bright. Luckily, my screams were not heard since I made the room sound-proof.

“Wha-What was that!? Was that…the future!?” I said, afraid at what just transpired in my mind.

I got down and looked at my medallion.

“Elements of Insanity…never heard such a thing…But I HAVE heard of the Temple of Insanity. That’s my next target, to get answers.”

I called Dusk and Cynder and they came to my quarters a few minutes later…

Cynder said “What do you want to talk about?”

“I’m leaving.”

Dusk and Cynder said together in unison “WHAT!?!”

“I saw a vision of the future. It told of my downfall if I don’t find a way to change it. I must travel to the Temple of Insanity to seek out answers on why I saw what I just saw.” I told them.

Dusk asked “But- What about the Phantom Consortium!?”

“That’s what I’m going to. Dusk, I need you to watch over the Phantom Consortium during my absence. Cynder, I want you to come with me. I can only trust the 2 of you and because Cynder and I have fought together against the Gorog, I want her by my side. Dusk, I need you to watch over my army. Don’t let Lightning do nothing stupid. If she does, then kill her. I won’t allow stupid rulers rule over this land. Meta is in charge during my absence but Dusk; I want you to keep an eye on him. The only ones I’m taking with me are Cynder and Trypticon. Remember, don’t let Lightning take control. I am going to bet that once she takes over, she will target the Equestria Empire.”

Dusk said “Well…alright! You can count on me.”

“I know I can.” I reassured her.

So, me and Cynder left on the Nemesis and began our adventure.
