Episode 86: Infiltration Of The Dalek Mothership! Interrogation From Cadence! (Season Finale Part 13)

Erised the ink-moth's Comment

You struggle against the wall of the TARDIS, but Cadence's magical grip and icy glare ruin any chance of escape. She ordered you to talk, so that's exactly what you start doing, belting out everything that comes to mind, the second it comes to mind.

"Okay I admit it, I always thought you were hot even though you're already married!"

Cadence blinks once. "What?"

"One time I found a volleyball in the trash and we became best friends! I named him Wilson and cried for a week when the other changelings
popped him!"

"What?" Cadence says, even more confused.

"I tried taking the cinnamon challenge last week, only I accidentally used a tablespoon instead of a teaspoon and it felt like I ate burning sand so I rushed to the fridge and drowned myself in whatever I managed to grab first and Rainbow Dash got really mad at me because I drank all her cider!"

You can feel Selena face-hoof in your mind as you're about to keep revealing your most embarrassing secrets out of fear, but Cadence shoves a hoof in your mouth to stop you. She leans in and whispers in your ear through clenched teeth,

"Now I'm going to let go of you're muzzle, and when I do, I want you to calmly and rationally tell me who you are, why you're here, and why. The. Buck. you look like Bugzy before he became that monster that just killed everypony I ever loved. Got it?"

You nod fearfully and she pulls her hoof out of your mouth with an audible *pop*.

"I'm Bugze! But not you're Bugze, the other Bugze! I'm here from another world with the Doctor because I accidentally broke his TARDIS while I was trying to smack him for ruining my life. But it turns out he was just trying to protect everyone like he always does, by making sure I never become that thing out there! But now we're here and trying to stop Nightmare me before his rage can tear a hole through time and space. If we don't the Nightmare will be able to break through to my world and get the achievement for killing everyone twice!"

"Everypony got that?" Asks a Dalek in a giant black helmet who snuck up on you during your interrogation,

"Also EXTERMINATE!"

Cadence is too fast for it though and blasts it into a nearby wall.

"Can we walk and talk at the same time?" you ask her.

Cadence sighs and reluctantly lets you down. "Fine, but you're going to explain everything to me while we look for this coupling your Doctor friend needs."

*Meanwhile with Derpy and the Doctor*

"Umm, Doctor? Aren't we supposed to be looking for the coupling so we can all go home?" Derpy asks as she flaps her wings faster, trying to match the Doctor's quick and determined pace.

"We shall in a moment Derpy. But first, we have an old acquaintance to say hello to." The Doctor tells her and continues his march down the halls of the ship.

After a few moments they come to a large and important-looking door. The Doctor slams his hoof onto the opener panel and the door *Whooshes* open dramatically, revealing a decrepit creature sitting in the lower half of a dalek suit, hooked up to multiple wires and life-support systems. Yet all the while, he stares out at the monitors showing him the death and chaos on the planet below as his Daleks exterminate anything that survived the Nightmare's rampage.

"DAVROS!" the Doctor yells, gaining the Dalek leader's attention.

"Impossible..." Davros mutters as he swivels around to face his ancient adversary.

"I thought you'd have learned to expect the impossible from me." The Doctor says with a smirk as he calmly walks forward, "This ends here and now. I've never let you destroy a world without a fight, and I won't let you this time."

BrownDog's Comment

“Ahhh, Doctor…It’s so great to see you again, it’s been so long” he wheezes out.

“It still hasn’t been long enough for me Davros,” the Doctor spits out.

“But of course, you are not MY Doctor…that fool died at the end of the great time war, by my hand…but you…you are from another universe” he says.

Derpy gasps, but the Doctor just stares him down.

“My Doctor unleashed the Time Lord’s greatest weapon, and Dalek and Time Lord alike were erased, but I was able to end him for his transgression…”

At this, the Doctor looks surprised.

“If I…he activated the weapon, then how are you still here?” he asks.

“The same way you are here Doctor, I fell through. Because in that final moment, I found a way out. The walls of reality, time and space have grown thin, and I was able to lead what was left of my armada through the rift. My Doctor failed.”

“Well I won’t make his mistake then.”

“Oh but you already have Doctor. Why do you think we came?” he asks.

“I…”

“We have long sought the source of the thinned reality, and it so happens to be on your precious Equis you so desperately love.”

The Doctor’s eyes widen as he figures something out.

“A powerful creature with enough rage and magic to damage reality, to open a path to another universe…”

The Doctor pales at this news.

“No…” he mutters

“Yes Doctor, thanks to one of your precious Equins, the Daleks will have a whole new universe to conquer and Exterminate.”

Davros laughs as much as his failing lungs can bear at the Doctors shocked expression before he says,

"Don't you see Doctor, this is something I could have only dreamed of. Do you see? A whole world dies below us as we speak." he says as he turns back to look at the screens, on nearly all of them, Daleks can be seen killing dozens of ponies, griffons and minotaurs who are barely able to fight back. "It is beautiful. And from the ashes of this world, the Daleks shall rise. It shall be only the first of many to become ours."

The Doctor growls and is about to say something incredibly witty and heroic, but a changeling in a horde cloak and top hat enters through another door with a plate of nachos.

"Well I'm back... finally. Did I miss anything while I was gone?" he asks.

"Hang on a tic, aren't you one of those horde leader fanatics?" The Doctor asks, "How the blazes did you even get up here!?"

Erised shrugs as he takes a seat in front of the monitors. "I dunno, I mainly just hop in wherever I want, and then do whatever feels right. Don't ask me how it works. The main reason I joined the horde in the first place was because it was fun and interesting and looked like they needed some help. Nowadays though I fell kind of useless, especially with all the other generals out there. I'm busy anyway, so I mostly just kick back and watch." he says through a mouthful of nachos.

The Doctor looks confused for a moment, but quickly returns to the matter at hoof. "Rrrriight... anyway. You're a fool to think you could get away with this Davros, and I won't even have to do anything to thwart your plans this time."

"What are you babbling about? This is going better than I could have ever imagined. This world is weak, its inhabitants no match for the superiority of the Daleks!" Davros says as he looks into the monitors with glee as the genocide continues.

"All but one." the Doctor tells him and walks up to the control panel. From there he zooms in on the Nightmare doing battle with Shadow, both still at a stalemate, but the Nightmare is slowly starting to gain the upper hoof. "That giant dark one with the tales, I'd reckon your entire Dalek army is no match for it. Even if you were to take over this world, it would destroy all of you in turn."

Davros is about to tell the Doctor that nothing could best the Daleks, especially not a lone beast, but suddenly a squad of Daleks converge on the Nightmare from behind only for the Nightmare's tails to lash out and smash the Daleks to pieces all while the Nightmare keeps his focus on the Shadow. Davros stares in shock and considers this for a moment before he smiles evilly and says,

“Ahhh...that creature. Poor Doctor don't you see...that creature will open the passage we need to move on to the next dimension regardless of how many Daleks it kills. My Daleks may not be able to stop him, but his destruction and rage will continue as long as he is engaged in battle.”

“No you can’t!” shouts the Doctor.

“We can and we will Doctor. Once again, you have failed.”

He then presses a button.

“Daleks, attack the creature en masse!” he orders.

“We Obey,” comes the response.

Dravos begins to crackle madly, which gives the Doctor a chance to quickly slip out the door with Derpy while Erised just sits there on his butt eating more nachos.

"What was that all about Doctor?" Derpy asks.

The Doctor grunts slightly before he says,

"That was Davros mouthing off all of his plans like he usually does, but now that we know what's he's planning we'll have a easier time stopping him."

The Doctor then smiles before he says,

"Besides, this is two birds with one stone my dear. Two birds with one stone. Now let's go find that coupling."

With that said the Doctor and Derpy continue to sneak away from the control center looking for the coupling. Preparing to start running at a moments notice now that Davros knows that their here.

Meanwhile, back with You and Cadence

BrownDog77's Comment

You and Cadence continue to walk awkwardly next to each other as Cadence waits for you to start talking. This goes one for a few more minutes before you sigh in sadness before saying,

“Look, Cadance…”

Cadence suddenly stops walking as she stares at the ground. You can see tears falling down her cheek as she starts to sob,

“I tried everything in my power to make sure He was not harmed. The others wanted to harm him, but I convinced them all to take you alive. I never wanted you harmed…but you just kept fighting back, and your daughter…"

Her voice hitches slightly at the mention of your daughter before she continues sadly,

"Your daughter died and this is what you became!”

You can't help but look at her sadly as you try to say,

“But...”

“You saved my life…and then you took everything from me…” she sobs.

“But I’m not him!” you shout back.

“Oh yeah? What’s so different about you huh? How do I know you just won’t snap like HE did? That you won’t murder everyone I love again in another world?” she snarls at you as she looks at you with a glare of pure hatred.

You step back slightly as her stare, never seeing her look at you like that ever before. It pains you to see her act like this, but you know it's not her fault. She's been through alot, and like she said this version of you cost her everything. But, your not just gonna back down and let her think your just like the monster rampaging on the surface below. Gulping you say in a weak tone,

“Because…I won’t,”

She just continue to glare at you as she asks in a quiet voice,

“Where is your daughter?”

You look at her in surprise, before you sigh and grab onto The Inventory protectively before you say,

“She’s safe, in the inventory. She was drugged and is sleeping, and I really don’t want her to see any of this. And as long as I am standing she will never see this, here or in my dimension!”

Cadence looks at The Inventory sadly before she glares at you accusingly before she asks,

“And you’re saying that if she ever died, you wouldn’t kill the world?”

You wince at this before you stutter,

“I…look that'll never happen! It’s not going to come to that! My Nightshade won’t get hurt! I won’t let her.”

Cadence looks at you sadly before she says,

“You can’t guarantee that…just like my Bugze couldn’t…”

“Cadance I won’t,” you start before she glares at you.

“I’m sorry, but I just can’t trust what you say…your voice is his, and I’ve hated it for so long…” she says as she walks down the hallway.

You follow after your friend sadly. However you don't get to walk far as Cadence asks,

Kropsling66's Comment

"So let me get this straight you are Bugys from another universe you isn't the nightmare destroying the whole of Equestria. And you are looking for some parts so the doctor needs to fix his machine because you broke it and you are stuck here." Cadences asked trying to put all the pieces together.

"Yes it's true but If the doctor told me the first place what was going one all this wouldn't have happened." You said point to what's left of Canterlot.

"And you need these parts so it can send you three home?" Cadences asked

"Yeah that's correct and also maybe taking out that thing out too." you replied

"OK then but what happens to me once you three left?"

That question struck you hard. How are you going to respond to that. A thought rushes to your head,

If we get the parts and fixed the TARIS Equestia would still be a dead world and Cadence would be the last pony left. No ling or pony to be with, to talk to, play around and have fun. She would be ALONE.
What should I tell her? Should I say that everything is going to be OK or give her the bad news. She has seen so much death her friends, her family, her loved ones. All gone because of him. I need to ask the doctor when I see him. I need to ask him what will happen to Cadence's when we are done here?

"Bugze?" Cadence ask getting your attention

"Let me get back to you on that okay." you said your response to the question made Cadence's feel a bit uneasy but you smiled to her trying to give her some hope for her in the future.

She smiled back as she got the message. An hugged you for it wrapping her wings around you.

You can feel the Alicorns heart beet it feels nice and warm too like being wrapped in a warm blanket. Sadly your moment of happiness was short live as in your mind you feel urgent of what the doctor might say. That and Cadence remember who she was hugging and she pushed you away. She glares at you slightly before she begins to walk away. You sigh sadly at this as you think,

I'm so sorry Cadence. I wish there is a way to help you, and I hope I can find it before it's to late.

A FEW MINUTES LATER

As the two of you continue to walk down the hallway in awkward silence. As the two of you past by a lookout center (you know the place on ships where they can look down at the surface), you and Cadence can't help but stare at the burning wasteland that used to be Canterlot in sadness. You could barely make out the Nightmare fighting the Shadow below, as well as a bunch of Daleks attacking them. You look beyond the the dead city towards the vaults, but to your dismay you see that they've been busted open with Daleks streaming into them. Your eyes widen as tears threaten to come out as you think,

NO! They got into the vaults! All those ponies that were in their! Twlight's parents! Sapphire! Oh Luna I sent that Moondancer mare there! Did I...did I send her to her death?! Oh Luna what have I done!

You feel your hooves begin to buckle at all the ponies who are probably now nothing but ash, but you snap out of it when Selena says,

Bugze, I know how you must feel right now. But we need to focus on the mission. Their fates were sealed the moment the Nightmare entered the city, the Daleks just spread up the process. Their was nothing we could have done. Right now the best thing we can do is carry on and remember those who have fallen. Besides...

You suddenly see Shadow violently get smashed through a building and into a vault entrance as the Nightmare soon follows by sling-shot-ing himself after the Shadow. Soon you see broken Dalek pieces flying out of the Vault.

It would appear that their deaths will soon be avenged.

You calm down only slightly as you think,

O...okay. I'll focus on the mission. If we can get the TARDIS to work then we can stop this from happening, right?

I suppose that is true...

Then that's what I'll focus on. If the only hope I have is the TARDIS to save all those ponies, then by Luna I will get that coupling!

Making a determined nod, you about to continue onwards when Cadence says,

"You think anypony's is still out there?"

You gulp slightly at this as you say,

"If there is...then Luna help them. Come on, we need to find that coupling if we wanna stop this from ever happening."

Cadence sniffs slightly before she gives a determined nod and begins to walk ahead. Before you follow her you can't help but look back outside as you think,

I hope that there's still something alive out there....

Solarknes's Comment

Meanwhile With Someone Who's Still Alive

Solarkness the Timberwolf just finished forcing the Dalek to 'drink' tea (he found some teacans in nearby ruins, and poured them over the Dalek's eye. He also found two tophats and made the Dalek wear one, and wore the other), and tells him,

"What a great day to have a tea-party, isn't it? Now I just wish we could watch something..."

"EXTERMINATE!"

Solar laughs as the beam hits him, and his body reappears after a while. He looks over the movies, even though he cannot watch any, and finds one very interesting,

"Doctor Whooves the whole first season? Hey, do you know why there is a picture of you on there?"

The Dalek stares at the picture, and says,

"IMPOSSIBLE! THE DOCTOR IS DEAD!"

"...wait, here it says he has that nice thing... TARDIS or something like that. Say, do you know where he died?"

"WHY SHOULD I TELL YOU? EXTERMINATE!"

Solar sighs. "That doesn't matter. I have the whole eternity to search."

In Valhalla

"What is that sound?" a yak asks perplexed.

His partner who he was talking with, stares at something behind the former.

"There is something behind me, isn't it?"

Solar steps out of the... inherited TARDIS of this universe's Doctor Who, and exclaims,

"Finally, after ten thousand nine hundred sixty-seven years of searching the planet, fifty-six months of searching materials for and building a rocket, seventy million years searching the cosmos for the TARDIS, and being stuck in the worst, most disgusting sewers, after three centuries of swimming through those garbage-infested rivers, after fifty years of climbing those nauseating, slimy walls and sixty hours of me teaching myself how to pick a lock so I can get out of there, and falling into the falltraps that brought me there twice again, I have finally found it on a planet that is missing any atmosphere!"

"I HAVE TOLD YOU ALREADY THAT WAS NOT A PLANET, THAT WAS A BIG ASTEROID!"

Solar snickers, and says,

"Yeah, whatever you say Dalekarian!"

"YOUR NAME FOR ME IS STUPID!"

The yaks look at the Timberwolf just entering Valhalla from a blue police-box... carrying one of the Daleks they watched, just with everything they use for destruction dismantled.

"So, did you happen to have seen some people in capes, most likely like this?"

He takes out his horde-leader-cape, and shows it to them.

"I think down that corridor some had one...", one of the yaks mumbles, pointing down one of the many corridors leading out of the round room.

"Thank you!", the Timberwolf says and walks back into the police-box.

Everything is Shiny and Chrome, and food and drinks are everywhere as Brown Dog, Kersey, Snap Drake and Grey Rebl look at a screen displaying the battle while sitting on a couch.

The inherited TARDIS materialises next to the couch of Brown Dog, Kersey, Snap Drake and Grey Rebl.

"Wait, the Tardis is on the screen, it shouldn't be here...", one of them mumbles.

Solar steps out with a Dalek, and asks,

"Hey guys, I came to watch all the destruction with you! It took me only around seventy million years to find this nice shiny thing getting me into the afterlife. Anyone wanna travel around time and space after this all is over? Wait, sweet, is that the scene where I realise I could find a TARDIS?"

"It is..."

Meanwhile with Bugze

"How did you get me to go into the airvents again?", Cadance asks you.

You crawl further, and tell her,

"Well... there were two Daleks who probably would have spotted us if we stayed where we were... and there was this convenient air vent placed... Hey, I think this is the exit!"

You open the air vent, and crawl out of it, landing on Derpy. "Ouch... Sorry, didn't see you there", you apologise to her.

You get off of Derpy as Cadence lands next to you. As you help Derpy up you look over to the Doctor and ask,

"Hey Doc, any luck finding a coupling yet? Me and Cadence checked like half the ship on the side we were on with no luck."

The Doctor shakes his head as he says,

"Sorry old chap, but we've got nothing on our end either. But I think we're getting close. But what I can't understand is way Davros hasn't triggered the alarm yet. You think he would after I talked to him."

Before you can yell at the Doctor for reveling himself that their on the ship after he told you to not get found, you are all suddenly surrounded by Daleks! You and Cadence get into a attack position as one of the Daleks say (shouts),

"THE DOCTOR AND HIS COMPANIONS WELL COME WITH US OR THEY WILL BE EXTERMINATED!"

As your about to give your response to the Dalek via a staff into it's eye-stalk the Doctor stops you as he says,

"Alright, we'll follow you."

The Dalek nods it's eye-stock as the rest of you start to get led towards somewhere on the ship. As you all do you can't help but wonder out loud,

"I wonder if Shadow is doing any better then us?"

"THE PRISONERS WILL NOT TALK OR THEY WILL BE EXTERMINATED!"

You grumble at this, but your question still stands.

SnapDrakeGames's Comment

"Warlock Punch!" The Nightmare is launched across the shattered street by his shadow's attack. He bounces a couple times before sliding into a building that's somehow still standing. The Nightmare gives a growl and quickly warps his tails around the building, and hurling it at the shadow. In a flash of green, the shadow teleports out of the way, before charging towards The Nightmare. "Lightning Legs!" The shadow screams as he unleashes a flurry of kicks. The Nightmare holds up one of his Nightmare Tails, absorbing the attacks, before a second tail grabs the shadow and slams him into the ground with a crunch.

Another flash of green and the shadow teleports from The Nightmare's grip. "You're not gonna get rid of me that easily," he growls.

"We wouldn't have it any other way. We're going to cherish this!" The Nightmare answers threateningly. He dashes forwards, wrapping a tail around his front hoof. As he comes upon his shadow, the Nightmare screams out "Dark Falcon Punch!"

"Warlock Punch!" The Shadow replies, answering the Nightmare's attack with his own. The two punches collide, and the resulting blast of wind sends both of the two sliding backwards, away from each other. The Nightmare bounds quickly forwards, his horn lighting up as he fires blasts of dark magic. The Shadow ducks around these attacks, bobbing and weaving around the bursts of magic as he charges forwards. "Beast Cannon!" He cries as he breaks into a spinning tackle. The Nightmare crosses two tails in front of him to block the attack, but the Shadow's sheer power pushes him back through the street, before breaking through his guard and knocking him down. The Nightmare roars in anger, his tail shooting out and grabbing the Shadow from behind, before launching him at a nearby building.

The Shadow crashes into the building with a blast of dust and sound. He begins to pry himself from the wreckage, but notices the Nightmare pouncing at him from above. With a gritty grin, he cries out "Electric Wind God Punch!", before leaping up to hit the villain with an electrical uppercut. The Nightmare crashes into the road, while his Shadow continues on his upwards arc, before turning back towards the fallen Nightmare. "Beast Cannon!" His spinning tackle again blasts towards the Nightmare, but the dark creature grabs his Shadow with his Nightmare Tails, before slamming him into the ground multiple times. The Nightmare tosses his Shadow up again, before leaping up with him and wrapping a Nightmare Tail around his hind leg.

"Dark Falcon Punt!" The Nightmare screams as he punts the Shadow like a hoofball; he soars through the air before slamming into yet another building. The Nightmare lands on his hooves before charging towards his Shadow, who stumbles slowly out of the crater he's created. The Shadow's expression turns grim as he turns to face the charging Nightmare before him.

"Depressive Deluge!" The Shadow screams, summoning a torrent of screaming water that slams the Nightmare to the ground. "Swarm of Responsability!" The Shadow follows up, summoning a frenzy of vaguely insectile shapes. The insects zoom towards the Nightmare, binding themselves around the villain and chaining him to the ground. The Shadow steps slowly towards the astonished Nightmare.

"How are you doing that?" The Nightmare screams.

"I'm not." The Shadow replies. "My powers, my abilities- they're all in your mind. Or at least what's left of it."

"Hmph. What's that supposed to mean?" The Nightmare growls as he struggles against his bonds.

"I'm your Shadow. Your true self," The Shadow says. "Except- not truly. I'm more violent, more volatile, and you're supposed to overcome me. You're supposed to overcome me, but instead you've succumbed to your darkest urges! Look at yourself! You're a blithering wreck, a grub with the power of a god, throwing a diving tantrum and not bothering to care about the consequences. And when you need your Shadow to tell you what's going on, you know that you need to stop. You've gotta think- which one of us is truly the shadow?"

The Nightmare's eyes dart around frantically, before they freeze, and he breaks into a smile. "Huh. Who knew? Even Shadows have shadows."

Suddenly, from the Shadow's shadow great chains of darkness wrap themselves around the Nightmare's double, ensnaring him in their grip. With a cry of rage, the Nightmare rips through his bonds, before dashing towards his Shadow. "Shadow Shoryuken!" He screams, catching the Shadow in the chin with a great dark uppercut and tossing him into the air. The Shadow flies through the air, and lands across the road, on his hooves. The two combatants glare at each other for several moments- then they dash towards each other, screaming cries of war.

The meet in the middle and the Nightmare grabs Shadow in it's tails. It's about to smash him into the ground when...

Down Below, The Nightmare gets the upper hand on Shadow, by pinning him under what’s left of a bakery. Before he can finish him off, he is hit by multiple lasers from behind.
“AAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!” the Nightmare shouts in pain. His right hoof has a few more holes in it, along with his flank.
He grits his teeth in anger and focuses his attention on the Daleks, leaving Shadow to dig his way out.

“AAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!” the Nightmare shouts in pain as he is hit by dozens of Dalek lasers (he was able to ignore them before, but now the Daleks all seem to be aiming at an exact spot). He grits his teeth in anger and focuses his attention on the Daleks as he starts wildly flailing Shadow like a club to smash the Daleks as he pounces on one Dalek after another, destroying them effortlessly with his clawed hooves and his Nightmare Tails shoot out to grab, crush, throw, and smash Daleks resulting in the Nightmare becoming a one-bug frenzy as he violently and effortlessly tears through dozens of Daleks a second. As the Shadow moans in pain, the Nightmare turns it's attention towards the Dalek mothership as it growls out,

"Enough is enough! We've had it with these motherbucking salt shakers on our motherbucking playground! It's time we take the party to them! And..."

It glares down at Shadow before it says,

"You'd make for a perfect party gift!"

With that, the Nightmare starts to spin Shadow around himself, increasing velocity with every lap before he hurls Shadow up at the Mothership with enough force to make Shadow reach exit velocity. The Nightmare is about to follow when stops and suddenly he says,

"Wait... How the buck do we get up there..."

Shrugging, he then turns his attention to the last damaged Dalek and starts to slowly approach it while sadistically saying,

"We're sure we'll think of something will taking our time with this trash can..."

With so much Killer Intent radiating from the Nightmare, even this lone Dalek begins to feel fear as it exclaims,

"HAVE... PITY!!!"

"Yeah... You're asking that of the WRONG God..."

In a panic the Dalek screams,

"EMERGENCY TEMPORAL SHIFT!"

And starts to phase away when,

"Oh no you don't!" the Nightmare exclaims as he pounces on the Dalek and they both phase away...

BACK ON THE SHIP

As the four of you continue to be 'escorted' towards some unknown location, the wall behind you all suddenly explodes, killing the two Daleks behind you. The four of you, and the two Daleks in front of you, turn around in surprise to see...

Shadow?

You gain a look of confusion as you ask,

"Shadow? What are you doing here? Wait a second...if your here then where's the Ni-"

"WEEEEEEEEE!!!"

Suddenly the Nightmare surrounded by pieces of a shattered Dalek suddenly phase into the room and drops to the ground. Without missing a beat, the Nightmare then grabs the remaining Daleks in the room with his Nightmare Tails and starts banging them together as he says,

"DAAAAALEEEEKS! COME OUT TO PLAAAAAY!!!!"

The four of you back up in fear as the Nightmare notices you and cheerfully says,

"Oooooh! The most annoying ponies left alive too! This is just our lucky day!"

You can't help but gulp in fear and are about to suggest a tactical retreat, when you see Shadow weakly get up and coughs roughly. When his coughing fit ends he looks over to you weakly as he says,

"Bugze...I hate that I have to say this, in fact me saying might just kill me, but it needs to be said. We need to fight the Nightmare... with a nightmare."

You stare at him in confusion as the Nightmare Cloak starts to slowly appear on Shadow before your eyes widen as you think,

He's not serious is he! After all this version of me has done, he wants me to use your power!

Bugze he's right! We have no choice but to use my power! If you don't were all doomed!

"Oh boy! You guys have Nightmare powers too! AWESOME!!! These salt shakers are starting to get so tedious! My advice; DO IT!!! The evening is still so young. Come on, hurry, hurry, hurry! Pull yourself together - the fun has just begun! Come on! Hit me! Fight me! GIVE ME A HUG! HURRY!!!" the Nightmare says in excited glee as a huge crazed smile appears on his face.

You gulp in fear as you can't help but think,

What the buck do you do?
