On a squad of MAATs were landing in a fortress near Tartarus; called Fort Wraith. There, on the main gunship, the doors opened when it landed and I walked off with Trixie, Rainbow, Twilight, and Sonata. Today was the day where we make history. We went into the war room and we are greeted by two ponies; Lilith and Maiev Shadowsong. Lilith was a mare with a white coat, black and red mane and tail, and had black socks on for some off reason. Her cutie mark was a skull in black flames. Maiev Shadowsong was a mare that had purple coat, wore a weird that cover most of her appearance, even her mane and tail. Her Cutie Mark was the Night Elf symbol, which would mean to us as follows of the night.
‘Luna would really love the Watchers due to them worshipping the Night.’ I mused to myself.
We came around the hologram table. I activated the hologram and it revealed the structure of Tartarus itself.
Twilight said in awe “I knew Tartarus was big… but this is way bigger than I previously thought…”
Lilith nodded “Well; it is the pit that houses of all demons and prisoners.”
“Alright; here is the battle plan.” I began to press some buttons and that was when a red arrow was marked from Fort Wraith pointed to and halted in front of Gates of Hell; the main gates into Tartarus. It was titled; Gates of Hell, by many species due to no one ever successfully escaping the vile place, except for Tirek. “Our ground assault force, led by Twilight Sparkle and Trixie Lulamoon will charge towards the gate and take it over. When they do,” The hologram showed the gates opening and the red arrow line began to make its way down to the bottom level “they will make their way towards the bottom level where Havoc is located. The Watchers, led by Maiev Shadowsong, will support the main assault force. Lilith will led her demon followers to provide whatever support they can. When they reach the bottom floor; all of us will regroup and prepare to fight Havoc. During the invasion,” A blue arrow marked at the Fort began to go over the Gates of Hell and above Tartarus and then head down, splitting into smaller arrows all over Tartarus “Rainbow Dash and Sonata Dusk will use the battalion of MAATs to provide support against Wraiths and Ghasts; Undead Griffins. They can provide air support and reinforcements, if needed. As for me,” A purple arrow marked at Fort Wraith went the same way the blue arrow went but instead of splitting off, it went all the way to the bottom level “I will head down to the bottom floor and take care of any… unwanted guests, from supporting Havoc during our final battle. I will wait for you all at the door that leads to Havoc.”
“Are you sure you can handle his Vanguard by yourself?” Rainbow asked.
“Of course; I’m the Guardian of the Dark Side. Besides; I have been feeling a strange but familiar dark energy at the bottom. Not Havoc’s, but the same energy presence that has been watching me. I have the feeling that the presence watching me may have some interest in me and I want to know why.”
They nodded and began to leave, heading into position.
I was in my Scientist Class Vehicle Form, waiting for the Gates of Hell to fall into the hooves of Twilight and Trixie. When the signal was sighted, I changed into my jet form and began to head towards the gates. When I began to fly alongside the main MAAT Rainbow and Sonata was on, I began to make my dive and shooting down those Wraiths and Ghasts that got in my way. When I arrived down to the bottom, I returned into my robot form and did ‘Shockwave’ to destroy my enemy that tried to attack me. I went back into my normal form and began to make my way to a certain dark area. Upon arriving, I opened the door and see a giant cell. Inside the cell, in chains, were two ponies. The first pony had a purple coat with green markings all over him. This pony was a male, and he had a blindfold on his eyes. He had horns coming out of the front of his head. He had black leather wings that were chained up as well. The second pony was a Snakepony, and a female at that. She had a grey colored coat, her upper body had clothes on that were design for a hunter, she had blood red eyes, no pupils but the position where her eyes were a bit lighter, making it look like a sort-of pupils. She had white mane. Her lower body was completely snake, like a Snakepony should me. It was chained up to make sure it didn’t do anything suspicious. There were markings on her but I paid no heed of it. I began to walk over to the cell and they heard my hoof steps and looked up; seeing me coming out of the shadows.
“Hello Illidan Stormrage and Sylvanas Windrunner. How does time suit you? Being trapped here for almost 1000 years.”
Illidan asked “It has been that long?”
“Nah; it has been about more than 800 years.”
Sylvanas asked “Why are you here? Who are you?”
“Where are my manners? My name is Danny Eclipse; Guardian of the Dark Side, Son of King Sombra and Princess Luna, Twin Brother of Charming Thunder, and Cousin of Arthas Solar.”
As I expected, that name got their attention and began to get close to the bars to attack me but the chains held them in place.
“You are Arthas’ Cousin!?” Illidan demanded.
I smirked, letting them see it “Indeed, I am. However; even though I’m the Guardian of the Dark Side, I am NOT like my corrupted cousin. But the reason why I was here is because I know you will go to great lengths to kill Arthas. And that…” I grabbed my medallion, it flared with power and the Dark Star Saber appeared in front of me and I grabbed it “Is something I don’t plan to let you achieve. So; we will fight and if I win and beat you in a Duel; you go under Aspect Contract.”
Illidan asked, confused “Aspect Contract?”
“If beaten by an Aspect in a challenge that he/she, the Aspect who requested the Duel, the loser(s) will fall under contract to the Aspect and will be bounded to him/her until the Aspect decides to let you go. However; if it is an Aspect vs Aspect, then the contract is not required. Do you accept or will you coward and remain here for all eternity?” They looked at each other and began to think about it. Finally; they nodded and accepted. I smiled and cut them free from the chains and returned their weapons to them. Somehow; Illidan’s blades; The Twin Blades of Azzinoth, began to float to his sides. I had the feeling they will be a big trouble. Sylvanas’ bow came to her and she was able to use it very easily. Her arrow quiver, for some reason, had an unbelievable amount of arrows. When we got into our battling positions; I signaled the fight and we began to fight. Sylvanas fired a couple of arrows at me but I jumped up in the air and launched a wave of dark energy at them. Illidan flew up to and dodged the attack and tried to get me. He cut me in half but realized too late that it was a clone. I came from my hiding and slashed him back to the ground with a wave of energy. He was out now; all that there is left is Sylvanas. She fired a dark arrow at me but I managed to dodge it and came up nice and personal; and finished her down. When they were defeated and I claimed victory, they began to glow and the Decepticon Symbol appears on their chest and I smirked. “Now, you are my servants.” I have my medallion scan Sylvanas and Illidan then we began to leave, heading to meet with the party outside Havoc’s door.
