Kichi's Comment
"What the... What the buck happened to you? You look different. More normal and less like the Smoke from Lost" You ask looking at the stallion
"What hap-WHAT HAPPENED TO ME?! You dare to ask me that after what you did to me?" Shouts Sombra in rage as he shoots another beam at you, but you manage to evade it. You get back up and look over where the blast hit to see scorch marks. You get a an annoyed glare as you say,
"Ouch! Jeeze man, that could have really hurt you know?"
"Oh, really? I'm sorry, but it hurts a lot more to be devoured BY SOME PUNY INSECT EL HUNKO!" Sombra yells in rage
You wince a slightly at this (both at his words and his volume) before you say,
"Calm down Sambomba. I was not in control when I...ate you. I don't even remember eating you."
Sombra's eyes twitch in annoyance before he facehooves and says,
"Of course! Of all the beings on the planet, I was defeated by a stupid idiot that can't even remember my name... MY NAME IS SOMBRA YOU STUPID BUG!"
"Okay, Okay, I'm sorry... wait a moment... How do you know I'm El Hunko? I changed before we fought" you ask.
"Maybe the fact that you Devoured me and I've witnessed your exploits these last few days had something to do with it," he taunts. "And that was a disguise? I don't think even Celestia could fall for that" Sombra comments as he fires another spell.
"Really? But it worked in the gala and no one suspected anything, not even Solar Flanks" you point out.
"Seriously? I knew ponies had gotten dumb after a thousand years, but I didn't think they were 'that' dumb. Tell me, do those mares in your harem at least know you are a Changeling, or are they so dumb they haven't noticed?" he asks.
"Ha...Harem?" you ask surprised.
"Yes, those Six idiotic fillies whom you defended. A changeling only fights to protect his love source!" he points out, firing another shot at you, to which you dodge.
Normally you'd point out how speciest that statement is, but an image of the Deadly 6 in clothes from saddle arabia comes to mind, causing you to lose focus.
"Come to us, Bugze... Come to us..." they say in their seductive clothing, but you shake your head even as a bit of blood leaks out your nose.
"No Bad Bug! Now's not the time for-AAAAHHH!!!!" and you get blasted by a shot from Sombra.
"How stupid are you to daydream in the middle of battle? Are all Changelings this prone to this stupidity?"
"OK, that is speciest. I may not have any love for the Hive, but I'd like to think there are other changelings out there that have made good decisions!"
Silver Strange's Comment
Meanwhile
"Finally! Done!" A lone changeling said, looking over his resume.
Name: Silver strange
Sex: male
Age:@!$&
Race: Changeling
Past jobs: Mercenary, animator, cashier at McRonalds
Useful attributes: kendo, archery, martial arts, otaku, no-life,
"Okay, now I just need to give this one of the Crimson Knight's leaders. Who knows, maybe there will be other changelings there" he murmurs as he walks into a bar.
Inside a cloaked Diamond Dog and a cloaked Pony were having a discussion over drinks.
"Look Snap, all I'm saying is screwing over the Transformares franchise IS a crime punishable by death, no matter what the others say" says the dog.
"Well yeah Brown Dog, not to mention what he did to the Ninja Turtles, but that just begs the question, how are we going to sneak into Michael Beigh's house to do this?" says the pony.
Silver walks right up to them and says,
"Why sneak at all? Why not just use explosives to give him an ironic death and thus end his movie tyranny?"
They both look at him as the Dog sniffs and claps him on the back.
"This bug has the right idea! Let's recruit him!"
"He's another Changeling?" asks Snap Drake, making Silver nervous.
"Uh-huh, you can't fool my nose."
"Don't you think we have enough of those? We haven't even reported the others," asks Snap.
"Well I ain't no snitch, and Kichi and the others are cool so why would I?"
"Good point."
The Brown Dog then looks back to Silver, "How about it buddy, you wanna join?"
"Oh heck yes, I even brought a resume," he says as he holds it up.
The Brown Dog just slaps it out of his hands and says.
"Screw that reading bullspit, let's go do your awesome plan now!"
"I'll grab the arrows and the dynamite!" Snap says excitedly as they both grab the changeling by the shoulder and lead him outside.
"Well that was easy," he says aloud.
"By the way, what's your name buddy?"
"Silver Strange, and this is by far the best decision I've ever made!"
Back to You
You sneeze as a wild sense of irony hits you.
"Oh come on random changeling making a bad decision in the world, you're making me look bad!" you yell to the air.
Sombra just shakes his head in bemusement.
"How did I lose to such a cretin like you?!" he shouts sending another blast at you.
"Ey! It was not my fault that you tried to enslave me and my friends, it's not like you deserve better!" you shout.
"A King Does Not Suffer the Horrors of being Consumed!" he shouts.
"Well if it makes you feel any better, you originally were going to get attacked with the power of love before I came around," you snark.
"I was what?" he asks confused.
"Well... It's a long story..." you start to explain, before you again are sucker punched by a blast of his magic.
"What the Buck! Can you stop for just a second!?"
Sombra just growls in annoyance as he continues to blast you. As you continue to dodge the attacks you can't help but ask,
BrownDog's Comment
“So…You’re not dead after being chewed up? How'd you manage that?"
Sombra finally stops shooting at you as he growls,
“I was in a state between life and death when you devoured me you stupid insect!”
“Oh Thank Luna! I’m not a murder!” you yell out before remembering Flag Burner, “Or at least not a repeat offender!” you cry out.
This earns another blast towards you but you dodge.
“Stop your stupidity and die!” he yells.
“I’ll put it on my to do list. But how are you even here?” you ask.
“Because when you devoured me, you stole my horn! It’s lodged somewhere within you, and I’ve been trapped here, regaining my consciousness since that day.”
“Oh…that might be why I had such a stomachache,” you muse.
“And you have been harnessing my magic against my will! I will not be a battery to you!”
“So you’re where that shadow whip came from…and why I kept hearing angry growling in the distance,” you think aloud.
“My anger for you knows no bounds!” he roars.
“Hey, you might want to keep that in check. I could help, I know some breathing exercises that could…”
He sends out another blast of magic. “Stop acting nonchalant! You ate me, you need to die so that I may be free!”
“Hey buddy, newsflash, If I die, so do you. That’s the rules for possessing me,” you say as you stand victorious in front of him…until he blasts you again, hitting your scar, which sends a jolt of pain through you.
“BRAGH! Oh You Bucker!” it doesn’t hurt as much as when it bled, but still.
“You are wrong puny insect. I am not possessing you. Possessing implies I wish to be here. No, I am trapped here in your flesh sack!” he yells as he lifts you up and slams you into the ground.
“But when you die, I will be free!” he yells, punching you in the nose.
“Free to take back my Empire, free my kind, and conquer this miserable rock,” he says throwing another punch, to which you catch.
“Then I guess you’re not going anywhere Simba!” you yell as you headbutt him, before Falcon Kicking him back away from the bed.
As you fight, you utilize the Shadow Whip on him, and he roars in anger.
“That is my magic! Give it back!” he yells with his own Shadow Whip. They collide, and you both engage in a shadow tug of war match.
As the two of you continue to tug on the Shadow Whips, you start to sweat as you think,
Come on Bugze! There's got to be some way to beat him quick before he notices Selena. Think, what was one of his weakness during your fight back at the empi-That's it!
Remembering that this is your mind and you can make anything happen, you focus above Sombra as you yell,
"HEY SOMBRERO! I HOPE YOUR READY FOR SOME...
Kill with pure kawaii
PURE KAWAII!"
With that said multiple popping sounds are heard above Sombra as he looks up in confusion as he says,
“What nonsense are you-Oh My Gosh, is that Hamster Circus?!” he squeals like a Teenaged Filly in glee.
Above you is a miniature circus tent, with hamster doing acrobatics, juggling, bouncing on beach balls, and jumping through flaming hula hoops as catchy music plays.
“Oh just look at their little noses and feet! It’s so beautiful, I can’t even remember why I’m angry right n-WWAAAAHHH!!!”
With Sombra distracted you pull hard on the Shadow Whip, pulling Sombra away from his Kawaii bliss and towards you, to which you Flacon Punch him into a nearby wall. Sombra growls in anger as he pulls himself away from the wall before saying,
"How dare you take me away from that adorableness! You will pay for such actions WITH YOUR LIFE!"
With that you,
Sliver Strange's Comment
Get into your battle position, steeling for what's coming next.
Sombra does the same as he charges his horn, dark clouds of purple and green swirl around him. Without warning he fires.
You dodged to the side, barely missing the huge projectile.
"Huh, that was close-"
The attack curves around back at you and much faster this time.
You dodge again and again and again. The blast doesn't lose momentum, as it get faster with each failed hit.
Eventually it hits you. It only hit the tip of your foreleg, but the effect is wide spread. sense you have is assaulted, your vision darkens, silence fills the dreamscape and a unbearable pain burns in your body.
The worst though, is when you see life flash before you. Every happy moment, your visits to grandbuggy, your time with nightshade and your friends leaves your mind. And memories of nightshade dying, the nightmare, killing flag burner and every failure and insult bore into your mind on never ending replay.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!," you scream in agony.
You try to get up, pain fills every part of body. But sombra hits you again. The horrible pain fills you again, bringing you to tears.
You get up and dodge his next blast.
You dodge again and again; sombra mocking you the whole while. He insults you about being weak.
You remember the infinite mass punch increasing both 'mass and velocity .
You buzz your wing until you find the 'sweet spot' and your whole body vibrates with a low hum.
Meanwhile Sombra decides to try new tactics and launches crystal spikes out of the ground.
With your increased speed you dodge them all.
"Gotta go fast, Sanic. Gotta go faster, faster faster. Duh a duh a duh duh duh. Go go go,"
You get close to give the motherbucker a-
"FALCON PANCH!!!!!"
You fire incased hoof slams into Sombra's face so hard that we have to go into slow motion just to see the damage! You can see a tooth fly out of Sombra's mouth due to your punch, and you can't help but smirk at that. Now back to normal speed we see Sombra go flying, bouncing off the ground and straight into a wall. He slowly gets up and begins to growl as he says,
"Your goanna pay for that bug!"
With that Sombra starts to charge at you. You glare at him as you...
Use the Boomstick to start knocking back Sombra, then remember you're in a dream, turn it into a "Boomstick" (double-barreled shotgun) and blast Sombra point-blank in the face.
Take out the Boom Stick and begin to slam it into the ground repeatedly, sending the smoke king flying away from you and back into the wall. He glares in anger at you before he jumps back up and charges at you in lightning speed. Your eyes widen in surprise, and before youcan respond Sombra has slammed you into the wall behind you. You cry out in pain as you loose your grip on the Boomstick and it falls next to you. Sombra glares at you in rage as he begins to choke you as he says,
"Why you little bug! You think that little stick can beat me! I'm the King of the Crystal Empire, and you will be groveling at my hooves and bagging for mercy by the time I'm down with yo-"
Getting annoyed at the mad king's rambling, and remembering that this is your mind, you manage to grab the Boomstick...which is now an actual Boomstick! You push the barrel into Sombra's face, who has shut up due to said gun in face, as you say,
"Eat This!"
With that you shoot Sombra point blank in the face! The blast sends Sombra flying away from you. You begin to gasp for breath as Sombra begins to get up with a shocked look. The shocked look soon turns into an angry one as he shouts,
"I can't believe in...YOU SHOT ME IN THE FACE!"
You give your own glare as you yell,
"YOU WERE CHOKING ME!"
"YOU SHOT ME IN THE FACE!"
"AGAIN, YOU WERE CHOKING ME! WHAT WAS I SUPPOSED TO DO!? LET YOU CHOKE ME TO DEATH?!"
...
"Yes."
Your eye twitchs in annoyance before you say,
"Oh buck this!"
With that you...
The Rutherford's Comment
Summon a glowing ball in front of you. This is a dream after all, time to take advantage of that fact.
"What is that?" asks Sombra.
"Only one of the most overpowered things in all of videogamedom," you say cryptically before smashing the ball in your hooves.
"FINAL SMASH!!!" you all yell as gigantic beams of light burst forth from all four of you, engulfing the mad king who yells in agony.
As the beam ends, and all of your personas have reforged with you, you see no sign of him anywhere.
As you begin to breath deeply from how much energy that attack took, you can't help but wonder,
"Did...did I get him?"
"Nope."
Your eyes widen in surprise as you turn around...
(insert ghost nappa refrence here)
And see him standing there. There are a few cuts on his face, and bruises, and he looks pissed.
"Not gonna lie. That was a dick move bug. Dick move..."
You then attempt to strike out at him...
BrownDog's Comment
Only for him to overpower you and send you flying into Selena's room. As you lay groggily on the ground you see Sombra coming your way, but something else catches his attention as he looks around the room and says,
Now what thing of importance is in the bed?” he says as he trots over to it.
“N-No! Stay Back!” you yell at him, but he turns and blasts you back again.
“What have you been protecting in he…” he stops as he sees her upon the bed.
“L-Luna?” he says in shock. He flings the cover off her before he scowls in annoyance.
“Yes…when she grew and became darker, you’re that thing she became! The thing that killed me the first time!” he roars as he gathers a large amount of magic in his horn.
“You Damned Alicorns, will you never let me be?!” he says as he points his horn at her.
“NOOOO!!!” you yell as you tackle him, the shot going wide.
“GET THE BUCK AWAY FROM HER!!!” you yell with the RCV.
“Ah, so you do have a weakness! If you won’t die, then perhaps she’ll die for you!” he bellows, as he keeps trying to shoot Selena.
“GGGGRAAAAAGGGHHHH!!!!” you yell angrily as you jump in front of his spells. They hurt, and he keeps trying to shoot around you, but you keep taking them.
“Ha ha ha ha! That’s it, keep taking the hits, it will reward you nothing!” he taunts.
“Won’t…let…you…kill her…” you grit through your teeth as smoke billows from your chest.
“As if I need your permission cockroach!” he shouts as he sends out a shadow whip and slingshots you to the side. He then starts building more magic into his horn for another large attack.
“You motherbucker, don’t you bucking…”
“First this unholy b!^$# dies, and then you, for usurping my throne!” he roars as he blasts the bed, causing it to explode.
“NNNNNNOOOOOOO!!!!” you cry out in anguish as you see the remnants of the bed fall into a smoking burning pile.
Sombra laughs as you stare in shock at where she was just sleeping. The mare who saved your life, and gave you your daughter and power, and he just blew her up. You angrily turn and begin to rush him.
“SSSOOOMMMMBBBRRRRAA-*ach*” your shout is cut short as he wraps his shadow whip around your throat and begins strangling you.
“Now on the cusp of your death, you finally get my name right you filthy maggot,” he taunts as he sends out shadow tendrils that wrap around your limbs like manacles.
You struggle against the ligaments, but the one on your throat only grips harder, causing your vision to become spotted.
“Die now. Die now in your anguish. Die and let me be free. Die knowing that I will next turn my vengeance upon that Alicorn brat of yours…” he taunts.
You grit your teeth in anger as your eyes begin turning orange, even as your vision fades.
“Die knowing that you failed those you love, and that there is no one that can stop me,” he whispers in your ear. Before throwing his head back and laughing
You feel flickers of the Cloak trying to form, but the darkness has nearly claimed you. When suddenly, a Dark Blue light cuts through the darkness.
“AAAAAHHHH!!!!” Sombra roars as he is struck in the back from the light and is thrown off of you.
“GGGOOOOAAAAHHHHH!!!*cough cough*" you gasp in much needed oxygen as your vision begins to come back.
You see Sombra struggle to stand back up.
“Wh-who dares? Who dares strike me whilst I…” his rant ends as he looks behind you and his jaw drops in shock.
You chance a turn around yourself, and your own jaw hits the ground at what you see.
In front of the burning remains of the bed is Selena. She is smaller and weaker looking than her previous Nightmare Moon state, but the sneer on her face is no less intimidating.
“Y-You?” Sombra gasps.
Kersey's Comment
A midnight beam of energy blasts Sombra away from you before she calls out and another Midnight Blue blast of magic strikes Sombra and sends him flying backwards. She then flaps her wings and glides into the air, landing next to you, facing Sombra. In your shocked state, you stare at your risen friend and you can't help but hear this in your head as you gaze upon her.
“Sel…Sel…” you try and fail to make words as she turns her head to face you.
"You should sit back and relax Bugze, I'll take care of this…" here she cracks her neck loudly before facing Sombra and saying, "Trash!"
Sombra just growls in anger as he picks himself back up.
“No matter, You weak pathetic mare, I will just make sure you are even more dead!” he yells before charging at Selena, who just yawns before she teleports out of the way of his charge, reappearing at his side and back kicking him in the ribs.
“Ahhh!!!” he roars as she then flies forward and tackles him, shooting magic into his chest point blank.
As he screams, she picks him up and launches him into the air, juggling him with multiple magic attacks, before Shoryukening him in the jaw. He lands in a heap, but then gets up and spits out a tooth and glares at her.
“Cheap move B!^%$, is that all you’ve got?”
In response, she sends a blast of magic his way, to which he creates a shield and deflects. He then sends his own magic missile towards her, which grazes her shoulder. You hear her yelp at this, and stumble, but she stands her ground.
“You’re nowhere near as powerful as you once were Luna!” he roars at her. You notice the scowl on her face become more prevalent after he says this, but also beads of sweat on her forehead, and you notice she’s panting. Worry spikes through your mind.
Oh no, she only just woke up, she’s still not completely there. This guy almost just killed me, how is she gonna…
Before you see her give Sombra a sinister smile.
“I may not be as powerful as I once was worm, but I have something you don’t,” she exclaims.
“And what is that?”
“Knowledge of the land,” she says cryptically.
“What is that supposed to me-OH SWEET FAUST, WHAT IS THAT?!” he shrieks as a group of Xenomorphs come from the darkness and rush him.
“Fictional creatures that modern day ponies have created,” she says as she hovers above, lifting you up with her magic, to which you are grateful for.
Sombra blasts one that gets too close, and is sprayed by their blood.
“GGGRRRAAAGGGHHH!!!” he roars as his skin begins to sizzle.
“Oh, did I forget to mention they bleed acid?” she says cheekily.
“What is the matter with these future ponies?!” he yells as he begins blasting the alien horrors and dodging their blood.
“Oh they have imagined far worse than this,” she says as the flood from Halo begin to appear all around him.
“WHAT THE BUCK?!” he yells as he begins shooting the alien virus sacks and doing nothing as he gets beaten and swarmed by the creatures.
“They have also demonized the once comedic jester!” she shouts as clowns rise from the ground, all with sharp teeth with distorted laughs. You close your eyes and plug your ears at this horrifying sight as they swarm Sombra and start biting him.
Screaming and wounded, he summons up a massive blast of Shadow that destroys the monstrosities around him.
“Enough of these fictional beasts! They aren’t real, and they cannot hurt me!” he yells.
“Oh ho ho, but the best monsters are those that have actually existed are they not?” Selena taunts as Daleks materialize around him in a circle.
“Giant Salt Shakers? Is this supposed to be a joke?” he asks.
“Nope,” she smirks.
“Exterminate! Exterminate!” they cry out and begin blasting him, causing him to scream even higher than before.
Eventually he collapses upon the floor from so many blasts. The Daleks disappear, and she lands the two of you in front of the beaten king.
“How…how?...” he wheezes.
“I have lived within my bug’s mind for 2 and a half years. What chance did you think you had?” she says.
“Yeah, my mind isn’t the most peaceful place,” you chuckle.
“Indeed,” she agrees.
“But…You’re so weak. You’re nothing compared to me. I have the power of shadow and dark magic. How could you defeat me Luna?” he groans.
She walks over to his downed form and says, “Because while we were both born of darkness, you didn't embrace the shadows until you were but a stallion while I've been the Nightmare ever since I was born.” She then sneers at him.
“And my name isn’t Luna!” she roars as she rears up, “It’s Selena!” She then brings her hooves down on his head with a resounding crack, Knocking him out immediately.
“And don’t you ever harm my bug or threaten my daughter again…” she mutters to him.
A dark cage then materializes out of the ground and encases the tyrant king, as manacles and chains appear and chain him to the floor.
Panting and gasping, she then turns back and looks at you, and for the first time, you are both at the same eye level.
“Well that should about do it,” she says to you.
As she says this, you finally have a chance to think without the threat of Sombra around. And the full realization that she is alive, that she is back, hits you. You can't help but feel tears coming as you say,
"I'm...I'm so glad you're OK..." you say as you hug her.
Selena hugs you back which brings a smile on your face as you sniffle happily,
"I didn't know if you would ever wake, it's been hard without you, but you're back now. A little smaller, but back just the same."
"Yes Bugze, I am back. I truthfully did not know whether I'd live, but I had hoped that you would. It's good to see you again," she says tenderly.
You both pull back from the hug and you both smile at each other.
"Bugze, as happy as I am to see you again, I just have one little question that needs answering."
"Oh, and what is th-*SMACK* OW!" you cry as you are slapped upside the head by the Alicorn. "The buck was that for?"
"Do you mind explaining, why in the 9 layers of Tartarus, KING SOMBRA is inside our head?"
You rub your head and chuckle nervously, "Heh heh...ya...about that...you see it all started with..."
ONE EXPLANATION LATER
And then you showed up and saved my bacon again...and that's about it, heh heh..." You chuckle nervously at Selena's face as she says,
"*Sigh*Bugze I have just one thing to say to you, and that is-"
What does Selena say?
